Wow! What an amazing piece of music RedRam. Good God I wish I could play like that. Hell-0, I wish you or Primetime could play like that. I've seen Dream Theater 5 times, but I've never heard this astounding production. Let's see if you can guess how these videos tie-in to Liquid Tension Experiment.

I wish I could play, period. Prime got the musical talent in the family. Although, if he would show me how to play something, I usually could pick it up. (Monkey see, monkey do) But, I had no clue about what I was really doing. I had no ear for tuning, and keeping tuned, a guitar. I got plenty of for that from PT! :rant:
I know the last two for sure having seen both. Portnoy played drums for AS after their drummer passed away. Levin played for Gabriel (also saw him with King Crimson). The first one I have to guess Rudess because I certainly didn't hear Petrucci.
Don't remember being that mean to you but it's probably true anyway. I have always been totally supportive of my son's musical endeavors even when I felt like criticizing him. But back then I was Mr. Hyde and now I lean more towards Dr. Jekyll.
My friend, whom you might remember as Old Doug, once told me, "Listen pal, some are meant to play music while the rest of us are meant to sit back and enjoy it." Good advice.
I doubt I could forget Doug even if I tried. He was a character to say the least.
Unfortunately, according to one of his sons, he ended up in prison for child molestation. Damn!!! All that crank he used and wine he drank must have done a number on his brain. :baghead:
:shocked: That's seriously messed up. Something's not right in the head there. That stuff should never happen. Never.
@Prime Time, recognize the "old" guy on the right? He's still rockin! Great band, albums and especially live.
