  5. metropolis Says:

    great interviews. I am very excited to see all the bands on the tour.

    Also, MP was saying a part from the new millennium Correct me if im wrong
    “How can you keep your head and not go insane when the only light at the end of the tunnel is another train”

  6. N0C.Ber Says:

    Great interview indeed

    AND the lines MP said at the end are part of “New Millenium” by Dream Theater and SOUNDS like the one from “No Leaf Clover” but it’s not…

    New Millenium actually deals with the problems, injustice and obstacles of the music industry that he is talking about in here.

  10. dana mueller Says:

    Not a fair comparison…Rush is an influence of dt..you hear it all over the place..as well as all there other influences!…A rush fans natural progression is to become a dt fan plain and simple..but you will always have a place in your heart for the band that introduced you to the great world of prog…”RUSH” there are no winners in music!!..it is not a race!!

    “i’m much wiser now…a lifetime of memories run through my head. they taught me how
    for better or worse, alive or dead. I realize there’s no turning back…life goes on the off-beaten track”

    every cd is a masterpiece and i hope to hear more from you guys in the near future. keeping doing what you do best….making beautiful music.

  14. Noam Says:
