Just bumped this to ask permission to use your photos to create myself a cover for my boot. I only want them for myself and it won't get distributed, what do you say?

Sorry that I missed your bump, dunno where I was. But go right ahead. Can't expect to post pictures online without people saving 'em and putting them elsewhere.

LOL c'mon guys let Cecilia have her fun... she enjoyed the concert: so she's not Lester Bangs, give her a break.

Saying her review sucks and JLB's hair sucks IS crapping on her thread, and crapping on JLB's personal appearance.

If you can't be happy for someone else's joy, go make a thread about eating worms.

Man, it is so time for James to cut the hair. I'm sorry, but the look of your singer really does impact the marketability of the band, and we all want DT to be as successful as possible...lose the locks, JLB.

What's up with you crapping on my thread so much?

+ to Cecilia.....how in gods name is that crapping in a thread.....he said he would like to see LaBrie with short hair, not once in that post did he crap in your thread......WTF calm down.

And OMG he also said he wouldn't like LaBrie's crotch in his face......I agree with those sentiments......

You know, it seems like you and CarletonBComm are the only ones who have a problem with this. Nobody else cares. I expressed my excitement. Leave it alone, stop being the instigator.

Thanks for the review cecilia.

It's funny, cause it was taped on the floor right infront of my friend to the left of me and we kept looking at it. JLB says on the mic "This kid right here keeps looking at the setlist. You know buddy, you can have that if you want, I have another one in the back". Then he shook his hand and gave him a drumstick. I was green with envy.

James seems to be a really nice guy.

Was it just me, or did the keyboard player have a better lead sound than any DT keyboardist? Seriously, his lead sound was fantastic.

That would be a Digital Single Lens Reflex camera which tends to be larger than the standard Point and shoot Digital cameras that are out there, DSLR's are just like 35mm SLR cameras.

Okay...then yeah...it was one of those. Seriously, they didn't even look in my bag. They only asked for ID.

JLB - Poghkeepsie show

I hope nobody's getting lost on the way to these shows...

DT actually used to play that venue in Poughkeepsie (The Chance). I saw them there a few times. I actually live about 20 min. from there now. Would have loved to go to the show, but unfortunately had a prior commitment. Poughkeepsie itself isn't hard to find, but once you're in Poughkeepsie, it could be a little tricky finding the chance...and it's not really an area you'd want to get lost in.

From the amount of sweat I can see on JLB's body, I can tell he fell victim to the no A/C of the Downtown. That place is a f**king sauna.

So no bouncers to protect the band from cameras?? That's really nice! Maybe because it's a club gig?? Did that lady using a DSLR camera?? I wanna try taking gigs shots with my DSLR...

Pardon my ignorance, but what's a DSLR?
The 'bouncer' didn't check bags, only ID. A lot of people had their cameras (including me), but the woman with the big ass camera/laser crap was REALLY annoying. I guess the laser was for focusing, and it was totally all up on James' face quite a lot. I'm suprised he didn't say anything.

It was a great show. I flew down from Buffalo and saw the show while staying with a friend in the city. I was very impressed. Everyone was awesome. I walked around Manhatten for 2 days so my feet were really sore by concert time. I drank some scotch before James came on stage so that I wouldn't feel the pain in my feet and could stand up front. I was like the tallest guy there with a shirt that said "Mob Rules, snakeyes", if anyone is interested.

Did I say excuse me? Were you the guy that stepped aside and let me get in front of you?? If so, thanks. But ya still should've said something.....dummy!

I am guilty, guilty of dummy-ness. I'm sorry...next time I'll check to see if we're at the same show. Yes, I'm the guy who stepped aside.

Damn Duke! All three shows? Whatja do? Sleep in your car all weekend?!?! WTG!!! Wish I'd have gotten to meet you in Sayerville. I LOVE a true diehard!!!

I flew down to LGA Thursday from Rochester and rented a car, but stayed in a hotel for Sayreville and Poughkeepsie. Saturday: stayed at one of my brother's homes in Fairfiled, CT for the Farmingdale show. Evil and DrumRman stayed at the same hotel as me in Poughkeepsie.

But just to hold you off for a few (especially you ladies), JLB's crotch was in my face several times.

Great show...

Wasn't familiar with any of the JLB stuff beforehand and was pleasantly surprised with how strong it was musically. Here's some random observations/thoughts:

-Marco really was awesome. I think moreso than for JLB, he's the reason I'm gonna buy the Elements of Persuasion.

-The keyboardist just didn't fit in with the look of the rest of the guys. When I pointed this out to fellow forumer A Change of Stevens, he felt that the guy looked like he belonged in a Sublime cover band.

-The club definitely wasn't packed and it was easy to get to and from the bar and bathrooms, so using that as an indicator and from past experiences at the Downtown, no the turnout was not tremendous but actually more than I expected from a LI crowd that seems to enjoy cover bands more than anything. We walked in just as JLB started and were still able to grab a pretty good spot. Parking also wasn't an issue.

-Thankfully, I was nowhere near JLB's crotch.

New attitude. I'm tired of taking people's shit. More to it if you're interested.

It really was a great show. Thanks to the others for covering everything else. I am so freaking...exhuasted. And I still can't hear (that's how you know that show kicked ass).

RE: JLB Review, Frarmingdale, NY. (The Killing Hand)

Sun, 17 Apr 2005 10:16:12 GMT

Got to the venue at around 8 p.m. and the line was down the block (good to see the NY/LI fans following their "passion"). Downtown had a weird policy about tickets. Even if you had tickets you still needed to go to the box office to exchange the regular ticket with an "arcade-like" ticket. So getting into the venue was kind of slow. But the time I got in, there was no chance of meeting up with you Steph. Anyway, myself and the YtseJim family found a great spot in the back where we grabbed a few stools (which made me real happy because I'm getting too old to stand up for four hours at a show).

The Rob Balducci Band was excellent. Rob's like the poor man's Satch and could have been mistaken for Petrucci on some songs. The band was tight, especially the drummer (who, coincidentally, is a friend of YtseJim's fiance). Too bad his new album wasn't available. I would have snatched it up in a heartbeat. For the most part, the crowd seemed to like them, except for one guy who yelled that they should leave the stage (more on this guy later).

Even though I have all of his solo albums, I don't know any of the LaBrie songs by heart, so it was like hearing a band for the first time. Man, these guys were impressive, like they have been playing together for years. The guitarist and drummer were especially impressive. I'd review my favorite/least favorite songs, but I couldn't even tell you the names. The European fans who see this show are in for a treat.

Time for a rant: So when did concert goers become so inconsiderate of those around them? The guy who yelled for the Balducci band to get off the stage decided that when James came on, that he would stand up on his chair. Now, if he was in the back and had nobody behind him, I could understand, but anyone (including myself) who was behind him had a great view of his back, and little else. After a couple of songs, I had enough and asked him to sit down. He obliged without a problem, which was cool, but he never should have been standing on his chair in the first place.

BTW is it just me or does JLB appear to have put on a few pounds?

Actually that picture is just not the most flattering. Last night at the show I was actually thinking to myself how it looked like he LOST few pounds. He looked and sounded absolutely phenomenal.

The place was pretty full which James seemed to be happy about. The crowd was really cool and was really into the show the whole time.

James was very talkative and interactive throughout the show. At one point he even joked about the "massive US tour that they were wrapping up tonight" and made a comment to the effect of "I think we covered enough ground in the US with these three dates... theres only like 3 places to play in the US anyway right?"

It just flat out rocked.... you da man James!!!
