Found this from the somethingawful forums: Basically the game is like guitar hero, except rather than using a plastic guitar you use your keyboard. You hold the keyboard like the picture above, then use F1 to 5 for the frets and the return key to strum. Or if you don't want to look like a...

Sometimes, among other prog fans, if I need to describe a band I think they would like, I do a little math equation. Basically take 2 or more relatively well-known bands, add them together, and churn out an obscure band that you know a person would like if they liked the other bands in the...

Got the idea from a popular SomethingAwful thread. Symphony X - Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, and Holst rose from the dead carrying with them unholy instruments capable of transforming any classical writing into a living, breathing entity in cd format. Madsword - In the future...

No, that's not the name of the play... =\ A month or two ago, I mentioned that I had wrote a play based on A Winter’s Dream and Through the Looking Glass. Someone replied asking to see it. Unfortunately, it was not typed up at the time. As I’m sitting here right now, I’m bored as hell...

Now's your chance to create your own fictional all-star band of the people who you want in it. Ignore any personal conflicts or whatever else these musicians may have. All we care about is the actual musician himself. The only rule is that you can't use a member from the same band twice (for...

For the first time in the year I've had the album Still Life, I sat down and started listening to the music with the lyrics. I had no clue it was a concept album for the longest time, but when I heard praise of it from other message boards, I decided to listen to it with the lyrics for story...

I like that episode.

Here are some other various ones:

Prior to having obtained The Human Equation, I thought of Opeth's Damnation as nothing very magical. What got me the most was the singer, Mikael Akerfeldt. He just seemed so dreary and lacking emotion. However, almost half a year later now after having listened to The Human Equation a good...

Wow... all I can say is... :OMG: http://www.shhsbladed.com/music.shtml These songs changed my life when I heard them. Listen to 6... that one's the best :) The talent... Unbelievable! :rock: -Kronikle

For me as a Keyboardist it's without a doubt Liquid Dreams by Liquid Tension Experiment. Ruddess is a freaking god in that song. I think he does every part of that song alone, even the guitar part (awesome effect with his keyboard). Second place would be the Odyssey. I simply love all the...

Disc 1: Inferno (this is like the perfect opening) The Edge of Forever Awakenings Egypt Rediscovery Pt. I Rediscovery Pt. II The Accolade The Divine Wings of Tragedy Disc 2: Church of the Machine A Winter's Dream Pt. I A Winter's Dream Pt. II Communion and the Oracle Candlelight...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2583775701&category=1055 I just saw that and listened to some of the tracks. Wow! These guys rock! "Graphite Symphony has been influenced by and compared to: Dream Theater, Rush, Yes, Fates Warning, Blue Murder, Queen, Judas Priest...

An authentic framed picture of the 5 Symphony X members with all their signatures on it! Sweet! My mom got it from e-bay. Man that rocks! Plus I got V and Odyssey t-shirts and Live on the Edge of Forever cds! And a "Ayreon: Into The Electric Castle" poster! Sweet! -Kronikle

Ok, let's exclude the songs with the old singer. Just songs with Russel Allen. And songs that are longer than 2 minutes and have singing (Sonata and On the Breath of Posiden etc. don't count) So what are your favorite and least favorite Symphony X songs? Mine (both on Twilight in Olympus...

Well I haven't been into prog for nearly as long as I wanted to be but so far here's a list of bands that I've gotten into. I'd just like to see what fellow Symphony X fans also think of them. I will list them in order, favorite coming first. Symphony X Ayreon Dream Theater Angra Yngwie...

Heh... I think this is amusing. My friend has been a really big Pink Floydish fan and many other classic rock bands. Well, I let him borrow a few Ayreon cds and he loved them. I tried to think of some other band that I could show him that he might like... Pink Floyd does not sound like...

Simple as that. If you are the last person to post on the thread you win! -Kronikle

I've been looking all over google.com for some sheet music to practice with on my keyboard like the Awakenings piano solos. I know I can't do them yet but I'd like to see how complicated they are and practice on them. So if anyone has a good website to get keyboard sheet music from for...

Hi! Let me start off with a little history. I've never played piano or keyboard really. A few years ago I bought a (crappy) samick electric guitar, amp, case, strings, tuner, cord, and picks for about 200 bucks. I tried learning on it but it never interested me that much. It was then at...
