Well, this was my first time getting a chance to see Symphony X headline (we saw them at Jaxx before when they opened up for Blind Guardian - we left a couple of songs into Blind Guardian because they weren't our thing). Anyway, the set list rocked, the sound rocked, but Jaxx is a dive. These...

Hey all! Let me start off by confessing that I am a proud newbie to this message board and a guitar player of 10 yrs! I recently got into Evergrey after finally getting their latest CD - this thing rocks and I am reallly diggin' it! Very technical - just the way I like my prog rock! \m/...

Hey thanks for the info. I know the guitar is in 13/4 - once the main drum groove kicks in, but it is easier to tab it as 4/4 and 5/4's. I don't know squat about deciphering key sigs yet - and have very little of modes, but am ready to learn. I have a friend that is a music education major -...

I already had DVOT - the only ones I didn't have were The Damnation Game, Twilight In Olympus - and the first one. I now have all except for the first one. So far so good. I am sure that I will enjoy those just as much as the others - though maybe not as much as I like The Odyssey (I am...

I am pretty sure I got it. The intro goes bar of 5/4 followed by a bar of 4/4 - then the main drum groove kicks in with the 13/4. Took me awhile to see it because it is weird to see a quarter note rest followed by a 16th note rest. But it is sounding great - tempo is quarter note=106 and I...

Hmmmm - guess I don't have that version! Guess that would be 13/4? What exactly do those liner notes say about WICKED? Someone posted about that in the teof yahoo mailing list also. Thanks!!! Later - MIKE

brokkel - second movement in THE ODYSSEY - very cool song indeed! I was trying to pick a favorite song on the new disc, but I just can't do it - I LIKE THEM ALL SOOO MUCH!!! Killer disc - now if we could just get them to do a DVD!!! Later - MIKE

Hey guys, Should I get The Damnation Game or Twilight In Olympus? I know the obvious answer is to get both, but if I were to just pick one, what would you all recommend? I have all other CD's except for those two and then the first one. I will eventually get them all - and may just run...

Hey guys, I am hoping that there are some music theory buffs in our little community.... Anyway, I have started tabbing out wicked for guitar and have hit a bit of a road block. I am relatively knew, and still trying to learn, how to determine time signature/tempos (I think the two...

Hey guys, Was wondering what P2P (Person 2 Person) programs you are using? I am looking for free and spy-ware free - combined with variety of download content (i.e. Programs, video, and music etc). Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated. I wanna try and use just one that does...

Hey - it was great meeting and talking to you guys also! What a blast that show was - part of it anyway :-P Maybe we will run into you guys during the headlining tour. Michael Romeo was so cool to talk to. Great guy and didn't talk to me like I was inferior - even though I am ;-) Great guy...

Not that I feel guilty or anything, but... I wasn't really wanting to bash BG - they are just not my thing. That's cool that other people like them. Later - MIKE

I came up with a different interpretation of that intro to INFERNO. Check it out and let me know what you think. The notes are probably the same, but different fingering. It is on my web page for download - either as html/txt and as a Power Tab (with a link to download the program if you...

What can I say... First time seeing them and blown the hell away!!! These guys are great live - though I had to wonder why they were opening up for Blind Guardian? No offense to anybody that likes them - but Blind Guardian did absolutely nothing for me! Couldn't stand them and my friends and...
