Cal Prog info: http://www.calprog.com/

Dream Theater in San Fran: Nah! I never cared much for them either. James Labrie curdles my milk. Too much crunch, for me. Prog Mental has never been my thing. I'll take Symphonic and Fusion any day. A touch of heaviness, ala Riverside, is okay by me. Full out aural assault can be mind numbing where my old brain matter is concerned. It's all in the melody, on every level.

How about Tiles or Presto Ballet?

I have Window Dressing- that's all

I dont have PB- should I?

I was going to give 'em to ya. I have Window Dressing, autographed by the band at Cal-Prog '05. I dug hanging out with the bassist and drummer, but the music w/vocals just ain't my cup of tea. Instrumentally, they rock. They need to dump the singer, IMHO. If you want the Presto Ballet, I could help you out. I may have a few other things you can have, er, for a beer...

You going to Cal Prog '06? I'm not sure if we are going, yet. If they get somebody really good for the Friday show, I'll go.

I agree about the singer- totally.

Release that fair maiden, churlish knave!

Check the start date on the thread Professor Obvious.

That fair maiden has taken this churlish knave as a love slave. Anyone have any remedies for shackle burns?
