It was 2009 I believe and I had just gotten tickets to see Iron Maiden (my favorite band at the time). I saw DT was opening for them and searched them on youtube. The first video that came up was Forsaken. I added it and Pull Me Under to my mp3 player and listened to them frequently. It wasn't until probably 6 months later that I laid on my bed in my dorm room and listened to the masterpiece that is Octavarium from start to finish. I was in absolute awe. Since that point I can barely bring myself to listen to anything other than DT. It is a sad commentary on our societal taste that the greatest band in history, most of us have never even heard of. Perhaps, like many great artists they are ahead of their time and their music, unlike the drivel most of us listen to, will carry on for generations. We move in circles, balanced all the while, on a gleaming razors edge. |

For some reason It's not letting me cast my vote...but the first song I heard was 'The Glass Prison.' This was back in 2005. My friend on Xbox Live asked me what kind of music I liked. I think I said that I liked rock music and some metal. He recommended me to check out Dream Theater. So I searched them up and happened to pick this song. I was absolutely blown away by the musicianship. Went out to Best Buy and bought Awake. Then I had a serious addiction to this band.

Stargazer. I was seaching the iTunes store for a live version of that Rainbow/RJD's masterpiece and bumped into the DT one. I decided right then that any group that respected Stargazer as much as I did deserved my business and bought the whole special edition without a second thought. Best use of my money ever (even though I had to buy the vinyl edition later on also). |

I first heard constant motion on chaos in motion when I was about 7 or 8. Then I heard a nightmare to remember when black clouds came out and thought "wow, this is amazing and completely different stuff. I only became a real follower though last september. |

A change of seasons, the version from "Once in a Livetime". That was the first DT's cd I ever owned. |
