OCTAVARIUM- what a great album!

I listen and I listen and I listen... And I can't stop! "I'm trapped inside this octavarium"! Bloody hell- those 2 last tracks (title one and Sacrificed Sons") are one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard in my life!!!

I'm right with you. I'm starting to think that the song Octavarium is perhaps the greatest progressive rock track ever. I still can't think of words to convey my feelings for that piece of music.

I'm really looking forward to here a live version of this "song". Would be a nice extra after the full cover album on their Amsterdam concert. They did it with ACOS, so why not with 8VM!

I'd love to hear ANATO in Hmmersmith, but... somehow I can't see those guys performing Seaside Randezvous...

That's why they will be playing Queen II instead of ANATO ;)

I think prophets song might cause some difficulties as well

Queen II? can you see them doing Funny How Love is...? :)
On the other hand- their version of WHITE QUEEN could be absolutely AMAZING!

On the official DT forum quite a few people are speculating about this album. It's on top of the wishlist of many people over there! Now lets hope the guys listen to their fans!

However, I don't think it'll be the most easy to perform Queen album. But if they do so, I would be very much pleased.

If one band can perform a Queen album, it's Dream Theater.

Ha, ha
Listen to OCTAVARIUM (song) at exactly 6:32. Jordan plays two bars of... BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY!!!!!!!

Also, at 17:47 he plays (much quicker) a bit of... jingle Bells!

Hmmm...sounds funny. I'll have a listen when i'm back home :)
