i saw that dream theater show last night...it was probably the biggest musical disappointment of my life. three was just goofy, i don't know what they were doing but the singer shouldnt make noises like that, between the buried and me, i like their music, but seeing them live really made me realize how much of a NOVELTY act they are. i didn't really enjoy it. opeth ruled, they put on an incredible show
then i saw dream theater.
oh lord.
they have this big screen projector, which plays this footage they found packed in boxes from 1992. shitty, shitty cg with shit like, A BURNING HEART FLOATING OVER A BED. it looked like an awful adventure game that noone has heard of
they kept showing pictures of their album covers mixed with this awful cg which made it seem like an infomercial. james labrie looked like a huge faggot and he definitely sounded like one. it dawned on me completely that no matter how much i used to like this band, and no matter how well these dudes play they will never write good songs. mr. petruccis tone was honestly awful and mr rudess had this fucking TERRIBLE synth piano that sounded like a preset in the first version of logic. it was one of the most embarrassing things i've seen adult men do. my friend and i made a pact to never listen to dream theater again. it won't be hard.
Wow, all I can say is, Progressive Nation was the best fucking concert ever.
oh dear...
edit: did you see the same show as me? lol
