    Funny story, I've got all my kids in music lessons over in Frisco (Texas). Every so often, some of teachers and their friends put on a concert. They charge $5 per person, so I take my whole family. We sit in the second row about 6 feet from the stage. All of these musicians have doctrates in music mainly from North Texas will is a world reknowned music school. Needless to say, I was totally blown away. These guys were simply amazing. The drummer was at a whole other level than any other drummer I've ever heard. The funny part is nobody knows these people. I'm sitting there listening to a world class performance, 6 feet from the stage, and I paid $5. Next concert, I'm in!

    Images and Words is their best release. Very talented band. A buddy and neighbor of mine John Arch (who was the original singer of Fates Warning) knows the guys well

    My choices:

    Guitar - Yngwie Malmsteen, Michalangelo Battio & Frank Marino
    Bass - John Myung & Stu Hamm
    Drums - Neil Peart & John Bonham
    Vocals - John Arch, Joe Lynn Turner, Geoff Tate (what can I say, I like the progressive metal sound)

    There are many talented musicians out there and it is great to broaden your listening experience. Sometimes it takes a few listenings to really appreciate something new. If you are not willing to take a gamble, you never will discover new favorites

    Depends on what you like. If you like it heavy definitely check out Train of Thought which is my personal favorite.

    A lighter, almost jazzy mix would be Awake.

    Falling Into Infinity is my 2nd favorite. Darker then the others but Derek Sherinian gave this one a great sound and feel.
