The very thought appalls me. The only band that should cover Moonmadness is........ well Camel, actually. DT would make a total mess of it; the thought of Petrucci & co trying to play with the sublety and emotion of Latimer i& co is horrific. Similarly, leave Genesis to do their songs; they do them better than anyone. DT should stick to their own material. They play that better than anyone else could.

I agree 100%

Them covering Dark Side of the Moon was enough, in my opinion.

I don't believe DT would like to cover a whole Genesis album, they are agressive, so they should go with the hardest and most Hard Rock oriented songs, if they cover SEBTP, they would sink with More Fool Me (Well, anybody sinks with that song) and I don't believe Petrucci would work the guitar solo as Hackett did on Firth of Fifth.

My songlist would be:

  1. The Knife: Strong and dark
  2. Musical Box: Would love to listen this track by DT
  3. Watcher of the Skies: A good chance for Jordan on keyboards
  4. Supper's Ready: I'm sure they would make an excellent work with the final instrumental section, it's so violent.
  5. Can-Utility and the Coastliners: Another great chance for Jordan.
  6. Get 'Em Out by Friday: Great changes should be a pleasure for DT.
  7. Los Endos: Simply I would make an excellent and more violent version of this good closer on DT style.

Iván

That songs are very suitable for dt, that covers would be awesome, They would have a lot of problems with the beginning of Cinema Show, for ex, or with some ballads. But this songlist is amazing and I hope that they would cover  Genesis on Monday 4, here in Argentina.

There's no way I ever want to hear James LaBrie butchering a Genesis song.

I'd buy it anyway, though...
My grip must be flipping
Cos his handshake keeps slipping
My hopes keep on dipping
And his lips keep on smiling all the time

Dream Theater is just too heavy for the style of Genesis.  They'd ruin the very qualities that make Genesis' music special.

Dream Theatre shouldn't cover anyone. Dream Theatre shouldn't
even cover Dream Theatre.
