They look like a surly bunch.
I like what the Xbox team is doing with Game With Fame. It’s fun to play against celebs and see how their mettle holds up. A couple months ago it was Jimmy Eat World getting teabagged by 12-year olds in Halo 3 and now the lads from Dream Theater (I don’t know who they are, either) will take to the skies in an attempt to mow you down in Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge.

You don’t know who Dream Theater is??? Crawl out from under your rock…
They are the greatest band that nobody has ever heard of. I don’t usually like really heavy music, but these guys are such monsters any musician will be transfixed.
OH GOD!!!! no really you should know who dream theater is. IMO they have the best modern day drummer, Mike Portnoy. But every musician in the band is top notch. Seriously, great band, amazingly technical, so musical, check them out!
I think this was their most popular song:

Dream Theater really are pretty amazing.
Even the indie kids say so – so i’d expect you guys to at least have some passing idea of who they are….
And Rob – The video is amusing cause it’s so freaking old.
But the popular point is kind of lost on anyone who’s not interested in popular music.
DT is music for musicians. Other people probably won’t be that interested.
Dream Theater is when you take Juliard trained musicians and have them play progressive metal instead of classical. One word: awesomeness.
