I Just Read About That…

[DID NOT ATTEND: February 7, 2025] Dream Theater: 40th Anniversary

When Dream Theater came out forty years ago (really??) I loved their debut album.  But I have never really gotten into any of their follow ups.  I know that they are a band I should love–technically amazing, prog metal epics.  They are made for me.  And yet I just can’t get into them.  I do still love that debut album, but it’s the only one that real fans don’t like (I actually like the original singer better as well).

My friend Joe and I saw them live back in 2002 and I remember enjoying the show quite a lot–it is pretty fun to see these guys do these things up close.  But I’ve been up close on a lot of other amazing musicians and I don’t feel the need to go to this one.
