[atlantaprog] Re: Dream Theater song writing Contest

So thats how Dream Theater writes there music. You start out with time 
signatures,
and then you add all of the other elements, then if you have room you 
add texture and feel,
well by that time there's usually no space left for those 
inconsequential things, such as texture and feel..........;-)
