bluefox4000 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Dream Theater is currently rehearsing for their upcoming summer tour of Europe which starts in Minsk, Belarus on June 25. Here's a photo of Jordan Rudess and Mike Mangini in rehearsals! It's gonna be very exciting to see what songs they play on tour! https://www.facebook...?type=1 Also, I expect that we will in the coming 2-4 weeks have detailed info about DT's upcoming new album which they started recording in February. According to James LaBrie they will start touring the album in January 2016. That tour will see my first DT concert. I hope we get another great album. they're on a roll with the past 2. I thank Mangini for the re-newed energy. Mick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thank Mangini for the re-newed energy. Mick I hope it will be an album that features good melodic prog metal just like the previous two they've done with Mangini behind the kit. I agree that Mangini truly has re-newed the energy in the band, especially since their last two albums with Portnoy are too hard rocking for my taste. When I listen Systematic Chaos and Black Clouds, what I hear is a band that says "we're gonna write as hard rocking songs as just possible, no one will ever be able to rock harder than this bla bla bla" But anyway, I'm truly looking forward to their new album! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Mangini became their new drummer, they finally became a democracy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemispheres4Echo Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Dream Theater is currently on tour in Europe so far having played shows in Belarus and Poland.

It´s great that they brought back Burning My Soul and ACOS, and finally dug out Behind the Veil. I wonder if The Bigger Picture will also be played on the upcoming tour.

PolarizeMe Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Still no Only A Matter Of Time. Oh well, it's not like I'll be seeing them unless they tour in the U.S. again this year or next year. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I just don't like people growling/belching at me in music, lol it does sound like a prolonged belch, lol if it's beauty to some......you growl to your heart's content. Mick My meds give me irritable bowels. Everyday is a like a death metal concert for me! That's some funny shit man. Get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSHHEAD666 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Jordan Rudess is the new Mike Portnoy. Must be that stupid EGO TRIP BEARD BULLSHIT THING. One is blue. One is white. Who will wear the red beard? Maybe Uncle Sam knows the answer. Dream Theater = Steroids, EGOS, Text Books, A Bass You Can Never Hear, and a voice that makes dogs howl, skin crawl and blind mole rats mate..................... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steevo Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I quite liked Train of Thought especially the last 2 songs Not sure wtf happened with that album, I used to like it but I've kinda gone off it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemispheres4Echo Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Here's an interview with James LaBrie and John Petrucci recorded backstage at Wacken Festival in Germany where DT played July 31st 2015. Petrucci says the recording of their new album has gone well and it will be released early next year. Personally, I can't wait! https://youtu.be/3mvoeDDAbDc 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union 5-3992 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 One of the few bands to release an album every 2 years still. I liked the last one a bit, will certainly check this out when it comes out 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 So apparently over the past year or so I've slowly (accidentally) gotten my dad really into Dream Theater and now they're like 50% of what he listens to in his free time. I mean, I've also discovered how awesome they are in this time, but my dad may actually be more into them than me...I guess that's just poetic justice since he got me into Rush, and while we both love Rush, I love them much more than him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I really like it more now. To me, I&W through Octvarium ranges from great to masterpieces. Then they had their lame period with SC and BC&SL. ADTOE I liked, but left a lot to be desired IMO. Self-titled was awesome in comparison; Illumination Theory is up their with the rest of the DT epics IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefox4000 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Train of Thought was made as a favor to a certain base of fans who wanted a harder sound. And DT is not that kind of band. For me....it was a complete miss. Mick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
