That one is shite though. I wouldn't disagree. Just seems odd for a legend like Hugh to have two recent works be questioned by the fan base. (I like the CA cover though).

Hope you guys are loving it!!

Cannibal. Corpse. Death metal band with some gnarly lyrics.

Don't you mean DICKtator? Don't get me wrong, i STILL respect Portnoy and everything he did for Dream Theater, but I'm not liking how he's already criticizing the new DT album. He no longer has any say in the band, so he really should not be saying anything about it. HE left the band on his own terms. I feel like he feels pressured into commenting. No matter what he says, it will be a blabbermouth headline and torn apart. But I do agree with you folks. He could just give a no comment, or possibly say something entirely positive about the album. Im loving the album personally

I'll never quite understand that. "Oh, he's 20 and I'm 40, so he's too young for his opinion to be valid in this discussion, while I obviously have unsurpassable wisdom." That's because you're 17. 40 year olds possess greater wisdom than 20 year olds. It's borne of experience. I've always thought it would be nice to have two forums. One for adults, other for kids. Teenagers should respect their elders. I never would have said that when I was 20. i think different age groups add different perspectives and thus makes the forum better. IMO some people are wiser at 15 than other people will ever be. in terms of respect, IMO its a two way street and older age does not and never has equaled immediate respect in my eyes. respect is earned and not a given IMO. Besides you can't fight youth....... for the record i am 45. yikes. I feel this way also. I just dont like saying it. Being 17 and all

QUOTE (Tony R @ Sep 10 2011, 10:33 AM) We have some wonderful teenage collaborators at Progarchives who are particularly savvy on Prog-Metal. I have stopped in periodically as a guest! You guys do a great job running it! Ill make sure to swing by!

Teenagers should respect their elders. I never would have said that when I was 20. Well here's the thing. I have never once said anything about being wiser, or smarter than any adult. Not to mention I don't check the age of every poster before responding. It was the older party that made an age argument, seems to me like a defense mechanism. I didn't post in here to argue with old guys I have a great deal of respect for those older than myself, which happen to include Tick and the other posters that defended me. Considering they are mature adults who are wiser than me as you said, I am assured it was not just a stupid "teenager" moment. PS: The BS sensor is a great tool in forums. I use it on myself sometimes.

You've just come here to promote Dream Theater. You are practically a spammer! Here to push the DT agenda only. Pretty rude, IMO. How about we Rush fans go over to a DT Forum and push Rush as the greatest band ever. It would be rude if I were doing it in Rush threads! I just love the band! Not trying to be rude! I agree. Your not causing trouble as far as I have seen. If you came to this board just to post in this one thread then so be it. Your not hurting anyone. Thanks Tick. I hope I haven't been "Misunderstood". You rule!

Hmmmm.... Its funny, the Official Dream Theater thread tends to have a few Dream Theater fans kicking around. Fluke I guess.. I was noting the number of posts you have here and where at TRF. I like Dream Theater more than Rush. I love Dream Theater, i think they are the greatest band to ever exist. I am also a member on Dream Theater Forums. I am not pushing it in anyones face. So whats your problem? Why join a Rush board to talk only about DT? Especially since you already belong to dedicated DT forums? That's a serious question. I don't think he has an agenda as suggested by gompers and secondly his posting seems to me to be reasonably friendly overall. maybe i missed something who knows? I went through the find all posts by this member and while i have not read all his posts, it appears he has posted in several other topics than just DT. Yeah 99% of his post are in MOTS and most but not all are about DT but i fail to see the problem. i thought you posted what you were interested in right? see for yourselves. I didn't think I was doing anything! Thanks for your understanding Tangy

QUOTE (ColdFireYYZ @ Sep 8 2011, 07:24 PM) I guess I'm a fanboy too. I haven't heard the first album so I can't comment, but I like every other album as a whole. There are only a handful of songs that I don't like but they can be easily ignored. To Dream Theater!

Tick, I thought I was the only one who felt that way..

QUOTE (Gompers @ Sep 8 2011, 06:38 PM) QUOTE (Tony R @ Sep 8 2011, 04:08 PM) Why are Dream Theater fans such arses? Nate if you become a fan don't become a humourless arse. Tony, these arguments must be old news to you. I think you are just having fun now. Nah its still getting to him..

Who died and made you Admin? Im not an admin buddy, however since you are a world famous Prog Archives Admin, I would have expected you to realize that Dream Theater have a loyal hardcore fan base including Tick and myself as well as others. We are simply not going to listen to you downplay their genius. So you may as well keep your negative opinions to yourself. Just the smart thing to do! Quick! Somebody call the fanboy police!

QUOTE (fledgehog @ Sep 8 2011, 03:33 PM) don't you love when people think that age is a valid arguing point? Honestly. If you are just as much a part of the argument you have proven that maturity is not the issue.

QUOTE (thesweetscience @ Sep 8 2011, 03:27 PM) I never understood someone trying to like something. Either you do or you don't. There is no requirements to like anything. If you listen and do not like what you hear then put it away and play something you do like. Life is to short to torture yourself. By the way, I like DT and I didn't even have to try. Im with you there!
