#104 The Dream Theater Special

*Note* We lose video about 2/3’s through the podcast. Coming in to the pod lounge this week are musicians Tony Piccoli, Nick Hagen, Jeremy Hyde and Chas Millican, to celebrate the return of Mike Portnoy to one of the our favorite bands, Dream Theater. We all bring in one of our favorite DT tracks from the Portnoy era, and have our minds once blown by the incredible musicianship that made us all fall in love with this band years ago. We also share our Dream Theater origin stories, argue about James LeBrie, discuss the good and the bad of the early albums, Portnoy’s boxing robe, and raise a glass to Mike Mangini. Then to top it off we dive into the newly released single, A Broken Man. Song picks: The Glass Prison New Millennium Honor Thy Father Scarred Trial of Tears The Dance of Eternity The Great Debate A Broken Man
