What happened to everyone? After the hype over Train of Thought was over, people stopped talking again. Well,just thought I would wish everyone a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Years, and all that good stuff. While im at it, ill try to start up another conversation: How did you find out about Dream Theater and whats been your favorite song/album of theirs? For me, my dad turned me on to Dream Theater when I was 2 years old and I loved them for awhile. Then I grew up and forgot about them. Well, I had played the drums since I was 3 and stopped playing at 14 because I got tired of it. The point where I became a huge DT fan was at a concert, the concert name escaped me, however, because I really didn't want to go...so I thought. All I know is that they polayed with Kings X and someother band I can't think of. I went and it was like a light came down on me. I feel in love, and I went home and started playing drums again. Since then, I can't get enough of DT and they have become my absolute favorite band of ALL time. Whats was your first experiance with DT when you became a fan like? -Art Fernandez --part1_15d.2a6f2d78.2d1a14db_boundary ---YTSEJAM FILTER: Rest of message skipped because of attachment ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 23 Dec 2003 20:38:51 -0200 From: "Gilberto Bressan Junior" To: Subject: merry xmas !

I thought it was wanky, then I finally got used to it. Then a year or so later, Awake came out. I thought it was even wankier. Then he gave me some Steve Vai, and I realised DT is good. Steve Vai is still wanky... > -----Original Message----- > From: ytsejam@torchsong.com [mailto:ytsejam@torchsong.com]On Behalf Of > xcitor > Sent: Wednesday, 24 December 2003 11:05 AM > To: Multiple recipients of list > Subject: Re: Its quiet...too quiet > > > Quoting on <2003-12-23 - 14:04>: > > > While im at it, ill try to start up another conversation: How > did you find > > out about Dream Theater and whats been your favorite song/album > of theirs? > > like so many others who watched MTV in the early 90s, i really dug Pull > Me Under.

Favorite song / album is a question you should know cannot be answered ;) ----- Original Message ----- From: email_address_removed To: Multiple recipients of list Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 2003 5:04 PM Subject: Its quiet...too quiet --part1_15d.2a6f2d78.2d1a14db_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Yeah, it is sort of quiet around here.

I figured I=B4d see if there was anything by them the next time i went to a used cd shop. there I found Awake and I was hooked from then on. I even converted my wife to DT. She is of the Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood persuasion. jacko --part1_150.287057b0.2d1b0396_boundary ---YTSEJAM FILTER: Rest of message skipped because of attachment ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Dec 2003 12:37:30 -0300 From: Eduardo Ojeda To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: Re: Its quiet...too quiet Message-ID: I had some friends that listened to DT, and they gave lent me a copy of Awake when I was 15. I didn't like (I was still really into Metallica). Then, someone lent me a copy of LT2. Didn't like it either, too complex for me. Like a year after, I moved on from plain metal to power metal, mainly Angra, and I discovered that what I liked the most about the genre was the slightly progressive stuff they sometimes made, like meaningful (read: NOT like 'Tallica's) instrumental parts withtin the songs. So I said to myself "Hey, I'll give Progressive another chance". Luckily, my musical sense had grown enough to allow me to understand the complexity of progressive music, so I got hooked on it. - Edu ------------------------------ End of YTSEJAM Digest 6745 ************************** === Contributions to ytsejam: ytsejam@torchsong.com === === Send requests to: ytsejam-request@torchsong.com === === More information at: http://www.dreamt.org/local/ytsejam.php === === Brought by the ghost of ytsejam@arastar.coms past === === Reach the owner of this list at: ytsejam-owner@torchsong.com ===
