Hello!!

Well just the other night I went to see Dream Theater in Chicago at the Riviera. I was able to get two people away from the stage and had a perfect view of the entire stage. They played for about four hours. The set they played was amazing. Here is the set :

Set 1

As I Am
The Mirror
Beyond This Life w/ Zappa stuff
Hollow Years
Caught in a Web
Endless Sacrifice
To Live Forever
A Fortune in Lies
Trial of Tears

Set 2

The Glass Prison
This Dying Soul
Another Day
Vacant
Stream of Consiousness
In the Name of God

Encore

A Change of Seasons

The show was amazing!!! Everything about the show rocked. The only problem I had for me was this really nice fellow who was following DT around from show to show that sang off key and so loud with the band that he could drown out James Labrie's vocals. He would yell WOOOOOO!! inbetween songs so loud that it would make me duck and cringe in pain from the pure volume that would come out of this guy. I complemented him on his power cause he has some pipes. Unfortunately off key. I also waited outside for about two hours in a t-shirt to see if I could meet any of the band. The only ones who stopped to chat were James Labrie the singer and John Petrucci the guitar player which was so cool. JP's hair looks so cool.

I am going to try to do some new things here at this blog. I am going to try to give concert dates. So here is some:

Solid State Records tour featuring Norma Jean, Dead Poetic, Haste The Day, Beloved, and Underoath. April 1 @ the Emerson. 6:30, $12

The Frank Gambale and Ohm. March 31 @ The Rehearsal Studios. 7:00, $20

Fantomas, Melt Banana, end. Apr. 12 @ the Vogue 8:00, $18

Disciple, Staple, and Poor Man's Riches. April 9 @ The Rehearsal Studios. 7:00, $10 in advance $12 at the door

Here are some new cd's to pick up:

Officer Negative - The Death Campaign Project. Tuesday March 23
Dead Poetic - New Medicines. Tuesday April 6

My band I Am I is coming along greatly. We have the music for five songs complete. The tentative titles are, The Beginning, Majesty, and The Trilogy, which is actually three songs in one that is clocking in at about 17 minutes. I am going to be working on the vocals and words here in a few days as soon as I have a cd from our last practice. I am also starting to look around for some bands to do some shows with. We will be up to an hour worth of songs in about a month.

I also recently purchased a new car for less than $10,000. It is a 2003 Suzuki Aerio SX. It has 20,000 miles, it is yellow, power everything, and an in dash 6 disc cd player. I love this car and it is som much fun to drive. Thank you Jesus!!

Peace and love!
