I'm amazed at how opposite you and I are in some respects and how identical in others.

Sounds like a great theme for an album concept...wait...Counterparts is already taken

She does?

MAN! I never knew that!

She comes by it naturally, DCJ. I infected her with Dio before she was born. She has been to one of his gigs, but not 'Smith's, or even (shhhh!) Rush's!

I know you weren't asking me but I'll give you my impressions, though I've only heard one album.

Technical ability is excellent! But they're not as good at writing songs as Rush. Definitely worth a listen though.

If you were to buy one CD to check them out, I would strongly recommend IMAGES & WORDS. "Pull Me Under" is such a great song. The others are great also, but is the one I always tell people to check out first.
