This was posted two days ago, it is a very good read, and offers new insight into Michael's influences:

Lol, this has nothing to with the interview, but the Ark song on your mp3.com station is classified as nu-metal even though you say it isn't nu-metal at all.

Fine interview, but the interviewer sure isnt doing anything to help stop the constant (and stupid) comparisons to Dream Theater .

Uh yeah... When I initiate ppl to the glories of SX I usually say "ya know it's like Dream Theater" then their eyes light up.

LOL...you're not the first to pick up on that, and it illustrates that mp3.com often gets its genres hopelessly confused. To counter that error, I wrote "...not a trace of nu-metal in sight" in the song description.

I think it's cool that they showed up to the cancelled shows just to meet the fans. That's just awesome!

Awesome interview! Thanks for the link.

How cool is that? The interview takes place the Friday afternoon before their show. Makes me feel as if I was there. Actually I WAS there!! (I was there that day anyway )
