For one thing...I prefer Derek's solo stuff over any Jordan Rudess solo material or most of Moore's recent stuff (excluding OSI). Secondly, I prefer Dereks sounds over almost any current keyboardist...I really dont know what I like about it so much, but I really think that it strikes a good balance between an overpowering Jordan Rudess sound and a more subtle Kevin Moore sound.

The band's name is certainly "Dream Theater", but the word "Theater" is correctly written "theatre" in English as well.
After all, the word is greek. It's spelled "Theatron" or "Theatro" in modern greek and has it's roots at the word "Thea" which means: view, sight.
So you could actually say that spelling it "Theatre" would be much closer to the original word.

Aw man, I love that rag-time piano solo in Dance of Eternity! It's stuff like that that keeps me interested in a musician, originality and creativity > skill. And that effect in the Glass Prison makes it sound so much cooler, I don't like DT all that much but Rudess and Portnoy always keeps me coming back and listening to their songs.ptah knemu said:
My point wasn't about it being interesting, which it certainly is, but my point was about certain patches working with certain atmospheres. Maybe Dance of Eternity was a bad example, because it lacks lyrics, but I don't thing a Drawbar Organ fits in with the 2nd step of Alcoholics Anonymous at all. It's like putting that effect in the middle of Bird Serpent War. It wouldn't fit.

O.k I've had the album 'Very' since Thursday morning, and I've had a good long weekend to get aquatinted with it and my conclusion has now changed from unbelievable to fucking unbelievable.
This in an album without a single weak song but the pierce de resistance of the album, the track 'she's flying', is so utterly moving that the keyboard melody that ends it actually had me shed a tear. I had to puff out my chest and put on some Slayer after to restore order but when a melody just catches you like that there is nothing you can do.
Melody, complexity, shred, heaviness, softness and dynaism. The perfect antidote to the crap people in this land dare to call music, I am of course talking about the student 'art' rock stylings of shite like Franz Ferdinand, The Strokes and The Hives, 3-chord distorsion genius.
Long live Dreamscape and the land behind the looking glass.

I heard Dreamscape some time ago, and wasn't so much impressed at all, but you know that about "opinions"...
Being offtopic... I'm starting to think that Moore is a bit OVERRATED...

Thanks for the ridiculous lesson on word origins. I'm gonna go listen to some Symphonie X.

Theatre is also written this way in french too, probably for the same reasons as english. But there's definetly no arguing the band's name.

'theater' is just the american spelling.. I think every other country spells it 'theatre'. Who cares?
btw, listened to some Dreamscape.. vocals are ok, music quality is good, but to me they lack that originality that I need to fall in love with a band. So I cant say anything bad about them, but I wont be rushing out to buy their stuff any time soon.
