I'm curious in knowing (if anyone has a clue or has read it somewhere before), what the total number of album sales are of SX entire catalog..we know that Odyssey has sold 100,000 so far from that Romeo Interview just posted, and i read that DWOT has done pretty well overall, especially in...

PAUL GILBERT...that guy has some seriously demented guitars in his collection...one of the funniest ones I ever saw from him was the "2000" number guitar on the front cover of the Young Guitar Mag back in the year 2000! (duh). Chris Impellitteri was on the cover with him...PG has some really...

Inferno Wicked Out of the Ashes Through the Looking Glass Evolution Fallen/Transcendence Communion and the Oracle Smoke and Mirrors Church of the Machine Accolade 1 & 2 (Intermission) Lacrymosa (Tape) (This is where they've stopped during the V Tour) Absence of Light A Fool's...

Just to add to the Yngwie criticisms that we've been posting about....like I said in my earlier post, Yngwie in the 80's was awesome...but I also look at it this way: the guy has nothing to prove anymore...been there done that, look at Eddie Van Halen, his playing started going progressivly...

I think the reason Yngwie's playing is so sloppy these days is because he's so overweight, and his fingers are too pudgy to be playing shred guitar. Coupled with the fact that he drinks a lot, and spends too much time putting on a physical performance to the point where it affects his...

I decided to take this set out on a roadtrip last week since I had a good 4 hrs ahead of me and this concert would keep me occupied...and I noticed something, at least to me, really stupid about the packaging: I'm aware, as most of you all are, that the cover design was changed due to 9/11, but...

...I'm only kidding (obviously), HOWEVER, that would be an extremely awesome opportunity for Romeo (and in many ways, Symphony X as well) in terms of exposure...although it might end up making Romeo more well known then SX, lol...life is strange like that sometimes. But back to my cool G3...

and how long did they play...

I havent had a chance to go to ProgPower yet. A couple of my friends/band members have gone in previous years, but im dissappointed in the list this year. The only reason I would go down there (and im not going to do it), would be to see KAMELOT, whom im dying to catch live, but the cost for me...

I love both of these artists, 2 of my favorites of all time. However, trying to compare the two is like comparing apples to oranges. I mean, I look at it like this: Before I ever heard Symphony X's music, what I had heard from other people was that they were a cross between Yngwie and Dream...

Curious if anyone else out there has this CD and what do they think about it? I purchased it a few weeks backs after hearing it for the first time in my friends car on the way up to the Helloween show at the Palladium in Worcester MA (Great show BTW). I've been listening to it non-stop, and I...

I'm waiting for the Dark Chapter Part II....and hopefully a "real" drummer will be used this time around :)

I'm curious if any of you have a particular song that you listen to that reminds you of some particular event in your life, or perhaps a song that you were listening to during a period of your life when major things were happening. So, anytime you hear it, it brings you back to that period of...

I would agree with you about the album not getting the respect it deserves. A lot of people talk about Divine or Odyssey and of course, V, but for me Damnation has a unique quality to it. You can really hear each individual instrument pretty clearly (sometimes the keyboard gets drowned out)...

But at any rate, I still can't stand "Savage Curtain" lol...the only SX I could never get used to no matter how many listens...but the solo is awesome! Peace
