Dream Theatre 90 and 91

I dreamed last night that my friend and bandmate Chris Nine and I had been playing some shows with Sheryl Crow and on the last day, we played an earlier show and then several other bands played after us and Sheryl sat in with them too. We had stuck around because we thought there might be one big band bow at the end (and also because WHY WOULDN’T WE?) Then when Sheryl saw us after she said “Oh hey what are y’all still doing here?” I remember not wanting it to seem like we were just hanging around hoping to get called back on stage for a final bow and I said “Well we thought it was important to all celebrate together the great work we did” which was true and sincere, but also a bit of a cover. Chris actually took that sentiment to heart and cried a little.

In my second dream I was playing a gig with Skyrocket (who I sometime sub in with) and I had brought my Line 6 Catalyst combo amp. We had started playing and my sound just wasn’t quite right so I went to adjust some knobs. Then I realized that I was actually reaching in the back of the amp and adjusting a knob that on the inside of the front control panel that was facing the wall. Even stranger though was that the venue had a mic on the back of the amp and not the front that was facing the back wall. It was then that I realized this wasn’t my amp. I took a look and it a really small German amp called a “Hauber Gaus” or something like that. I could actually clearly read it, which I remembered when I woke up since I’d heard some people say you can’t read in dreams. Also I’m not sure if that was the actual name as it has faded since I woke up, but I definitely remembered it when I woke up. I also remember wondering where my amp was and hoping it was somewhere safe and not lost.
