You mentioned to me recently that PofO would be playing shows soon, but I don't remember the details. Did you say that the shows would only be 'after' the next CD comes out?!? Also, how are things progressing (no pun intended)?

OmDave said:Hay Dave! Its been some time, but I have been checking to read whatever... I am glad to see that the band is progressing on the new material and becoming tight! By the way, have you heard - AT WAR WITH SELF, Torn Between Dimensions CD? I would like your thoughts...
Peace,

Yeah, it's prog alright. Yet, it is rich in mood, textures and nuance with big dynamic shifts and crunch. The musicianship here is stellar. I just thought you, the band and other fans need to know about this CD. By the way, I do not know Glenn or the other guys. Just think this is a very cool CD.
Dave, is the PoO DVD-R till for sale?? I may need another copy!
Dave - Power of Omens said:Actually, we do plan on playing as soon as the CD is completed, which we're hoping for a late summer completion. We were in the middle of committng to an event that was going to happen in Houston for the Fall, but it seems that got post-poned now for possibly early Spring 2006.

BalanceofPower said:You guys should come play Chicago. Maybe we could set up some shows together.
saki said:Dave,
When was the last time PoO played?!? If I remember correctly, I was taking finals at that time and couldn't go, but it seems like it has been so long. Did anyone bother to record (through soundboard) or bootleg that show?!? I am dying to hear some live PoO. Also, when are you going to be in S.A. again?!?

The last show we played was May 3rd, 2003 at the Robb's MetalWorks Showcase. Last year Watchtower played it, and this year (this past weekend actually) I believe it was Solitue Aeturnus. Robb video taped portions of the show, and now I sell it on a DVDr that I put together along with an Interview I did with him on his show, self-produced videos for two songs off of Rooms of Anguish, a photo gallery, and both CDs, along with bonus tracks in surround sound.
Well, I don't plan on being back in S.A. until the end of August (Labor day weekend)... unless gas gets any more expensive...
I'll let you know for sure though when I do come back down.

"At War With Self is the project name for an instrumental trio that was put together by guitarist/composer Glenn Snelwar. He is perhaps best known for his vital contributions to the first offering from Sean Malone's Gordian Knot project. At War With Self's debut release, Torn Between Dimensions, features Snelwar on guitars, mandolins and keyboards, Michael Manring on fretless bass and e-bow, and Mark Zonder on drums and percussion. Mark Zonder's progressive drumming forms the backbone for Snelwar's guitars, mandolins and keyboards that intertwine with Michael Manring's expressive fretless bass lines and e-bow. The idea behind Torn Between Dimensions is to create compositions that have an intensity of emotion and incorporate a wide variety of influences. Derived from an equal passion for progressive rock and metal bands such as King Crimson, Voivod and Pink Floyd, classical composers such as Leo Brouwer, Bela Bartok and Heitor Villa Lobos, to such diverse influences as bluegrass and jazz, Torn Between Dimensions is the realization of how Glenn chooses to take these influences and combine them into something undeniably progressive and strikingly original. The end result is a dense wall of sound, where multiple genres are explored within each song, as one song flows seamlessly into the next."
