September 2006 Archives

From The Gauntlet:

Mike, Neal Morse and Rangy George released their Cover To Cover album on September 22nd. This album consists of songs from the recording sessions for Neal's discs.

Mike says about this disc:

"It comes down to this: I am a music fan. No matter how old I get or how much success I've had, I will always be that 11 year old kid in the KISS Army jamming along to Who tunes in my bedroom. Because of this, I still LOVE playing covers.

I have been able to tap into my Metal and Prog influences choosing covers with DT, but another HUGE side of my inspiration are my Classic Rock influences from the 60's and 70's. For the most part, the guys in DT don't share this same background so I've never been able to cover these classic bands with them.

However Neal and Randy TOTALLY do share this background, so when choosing covers with them rather than taking the obvious PROG road, we've enjoyed paying tribute to the more retro, pop-oriented side of our shared taste.

Gathered here on this CD is a collection of all of the covers we did together throughout the sessions for Neal's Testimony, One and ? sessions.

Expand your prog ears and enjoy!"

Sorry this has taken so long. I finally got a machine up and running today to run the IRC server on. This weekend I will be transferring all the data from the old machine over and we should be ready to go. If all goes well, irc.dreamt.org should be up and running again by Saturday night. Thanks for your patience.

I finally got around to adding Score to the Discography today. Let me know if you see any issues.

I'm having some server trouble with the machine that runs the Dreamt.org IRC Server. I am working on getting it back up as quickly as possible, but it will probably be down for at least a few days. Watch this space for more information and thanks in advance for the patience.
