LTE Reunite

[Eternal Dragon]

This is pretty cool. Shame they aren't doing many shows tho .

With Sun caged and Zero hour supporting WOW

 

[Jax]

*yawn*

Never cared much for them.

 

[theVikingR]

Is it just the tour, or will a new/live CD be recorded?

 

[Jax]

Knowing Portnoy, there'll be a cd, dvd, and LTE thong underwear for sale by the end of the year.

 

[ABQShredHead]

Ten years already?

Hmm... thong underwear...

With Sun caged and Zero hour supporting WOW

No shit? Are they the support for all the dates? Either way, I'll definitely be in attendance for this. Very lucky there's a Chicago date.

 

[Phanto]

Not the most amazing of reunions. I mean 3 of them are already in the same band.

 

[DoomsdayZach]

I'm trying so hard to care about this, but i'm with Jax on this one.

 

[Detective Clarence Beauregard]

I'll probably try to catch the Chicago show, but I'm not going to cry if I can't make it.

 

[Meedleyx10]

I'm 99% sure I'll be making it either to the Nearfest date or the NY one.

 

[EyeballKid]

I hope they subsequently reunite with their individual songwriting ability.

+2 to Jax and Zach

 

[Eternal Dragon]

Oh come on, lol. LTE is such a fun band. Their riffs are more interesting than DT, plus with the added bonus of no LaBrie.

Universal Mind > Every recent DT song.

Shocker...

 

[rockyracoon]

Universal Mind > Every recent DT song.

Absolutely true. One of my favorites of LTE. Though I'd go as far as to say almost ALL tracks off LTE 1 are better than anything DT has done recently.

 

[Detective Clarence Beauregard]

I do think that there's a lot of filler on the LTE albums. I can't stand all the jam stuff... I like organization!

Hopefully their set will look something like this:

Paradigm Shift
Kindred Spirits
Freedom of Speech
State of Grace
Universal Mind
Acid Rain
Biaxident
Another Dimension
When the Water Breaks

And hopefully no random jams whatsoever!

 

[CantoX]

Never heard of them.
Nah, heard of them, never heard anything by them though.

Um, aren't all those band members the same as Dream Theater expect that Tony guy? lol

 

[Jax]

Yep. It's basically DT with a different bass player & without vocals.

 

[CantoX]

Yep. It's basically DT with a different bass player & without vocals.

Thank you.

Hmm.. fall asleep when listening to Dream Theater.. fall asleep while listening too Dream Tension ExperiTheater.

Portnoy: "Hey Petrucci, I've got an idea!"
Petrucci: "If you let me out of my cage I'll.."
Portnoy: "Shut up and listen! I know a way we can make more money!! Instead of having that girl singing in our music, we can play music without the singing stuff!"
Petrucci: "We're close enough to that already, I mean almost 80 percent of our songs are made up of seemlessly endless soloing sections"
Portnoy: "No, but this will be cooler, see we'll call it another name, almost as if it's another band but it's not"
Petrucci: "Let's at least get another member for it"
Portnoy: "Hmm.. you're right! I know, let's drop the asian in our band and get a new bass player. The reason being he's asian!"
Petrucci: "Yeah!! That asian! Alright let's do it!"
Portnoy: "Woo hoo!! More money!! Less asian!! More solos!! No bitch vocals!! Still making bad music but getting payed!! Woo!!!"
Petrucci: "I'll solo to that!! -switches pickup selector to God killing mode- Yeah!!"
Portnoy: -Plays a polyrhythm over a time signature of 144/69-
