I don't get how people will sit through a 4 hour Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings movie but whoa shit a ten minute Dream Theater song is too long. I suppose it's all relative.

I like Lord Of The Rings but I had to giggle...I thought of Clerks II straight away when I read your post.

I would prefer a DT album go for 4 hours then ever have to watch Harry Potter again.

I love that scene. Actually, I love that whole movie. Actually, I love Clerks in general.

Likewise. One of my friends made me watch it with them once and I spent the whole movie taking jabs at it so.....now they don't ask me to watch Harry Potter with them anymore.

Once I snuck earphones into class when everyone was watching Harry Potter and I had music going, lights were off so no one could tell I was doing that. I had Ac/dc on at the time but Dream Theater would have been just as good at that time, would have killed the time nicely with their longer tracks.

I listened to Black Clouds And Silver Linings at work today, it was fantastic! The structure of this song in particular is flawless, especially the chorus. It builds and changes like a 20 minute epic even though it's only 8 minutes long:



But my favourite is still The Count Of Tuscany, (Which is a 20 minute epic) just because it's so grandiose and beautiful!

While I don't put "Systematic Chaos" as one of Dream Theater's best albums it is by no means a bad album. I especially love "Ministry of Lost Souls". The chords used in the intro are very powerful and I love John's acoustic work in the beginning enough that I'm learning how to play it right now.

I'm glad they're over losing Portnoy, and will get the new album as soon as it's out.
