That's GRAMMAR. Stern%20Smile
 
I think a 'horriffic" thread is perfect for Halloween, but if it's not exciting enough for you, might I recommend an "X vs Y -- who's best"  or "what are you listening to" thread? Those numbers and lists are always thrilling! Big%20smile
 
Yes I know, that was the point. Grammar, oh yea, horrific has one f. Wink And I have tried the other threads, thanks.
It's just Dream Theater is my fav band and has been since When Dream And Day Unite, I find it frustrating when all somebody can do is discuss how it's spelled for 3 pages in a thread.
So how about I start.
What is your favorite Dream Theater studio album?
What is your favorite Dream Theater live album?
What is your favorite Dream Theater side project?
Who is you favorite Dream Theater keyboardist?

Names are to be pronounced and written as they are... ANYWHERE... there are NAMES belonging to only ONE entity in the world... no matter how many bands/people/whatever share the name, when it refers to a particular being, it's only HIS/HER...
 
I never agree with people in spanish translating Johann Sebastian Bach into Juan Sebastian Bach... Aghhh!Dead His name is JOHANN... I would never like to see Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra called Michael of Cervantes Saavedra (aghhhDead)... Even with supid things, I don't translate even names of cars, hotels, anything... If I can't pronounce the word (as, for example, a french name) I just pronounce it like I can, but I never translate as it's NOT a generic but something for just ONE being...
 
Why don't we call The Beatles Los Escarabajos (it would have to be different as Beat-and beetles are different... it's a game of words..) Or I know! All of you Genesis worshippers! For now on, as my language is spanish, it's Pedro Gabriel and Felipe Collins for me... and Yes is no longer Yes, it's SI.
 
Dream Theater were named Dream THEATER by their members.. If they chose to name themselves Dream THIATREDS just because they wanted to, it's their band and their name... the same with any band.
 
This wins for most useless thread ever....sorry
 
Broadly speaking I agree with you (there's a first time for everything!). I think that Giusseppe Verdi would be a lot less highly regarded outside Italy if we Anglicised his name to Joe Green.

This is nothing - just check out the Magma MDK thread, which is all about the use of diacritics in one of their album titles: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42461&KW=
 
And a splendid waste of time it is too!

We in Wales call them Dream Theater.  We may have dual language roadsigns, but we only need single language for prog band names.
