Mail to Jordan Rudess

Okay, I've mailed Jordan Rudess! at fanmail@jordanrudess.com

I've been wanting to e mail Dream Theater and ask them to come to India and perform. I mean, if they can come as close as Bangkok, then they sure can afford to come to India!

So bro suggested, I e-mail Jordan Rudess, who checks his mail regularly and replies too!! So that I did. And here is what I wrote :D

'Dear Jordan Rudess,

If I have to say that I am hugely smitten by Dream Theater, it would probably be a gross understatement. You guys have influenced my life with your music to an extent that I cannot explain, and you can never imagine. Thank you for that.

I would like to tell you Sir, that I can NEVER ever come close to loving any other band as much as I have loved Dream Theater for the rest of my life. And yes apart from your musical genius, I owe a lot if it to my brother who introduced me to your music.

I write this mail on behalf of him and me. Both of us Sir are huge fans of Dream Theater and we've decided that someday we'll both watch you guys perform live.

I'd like to extend my warmest appreciation to your work on the song HOME from the album Scenes from a Memory. I could not believe my ears when I heard Sitar strains in a Dream Theater song, and was even more stunned to know, it came from your synthesizer!! Bravo !!!! It has taken my respect for you a notch higher than before Sir. My humble respects to you.

Sir, I would like to ask you and your other band members to consider touring India. I am from India and I would love to see you guys perform here. I was recently watching the Chaos in Motion tour CD and found that you came as close as Bangkok. But , I would like to know if you would consider performing in India anytime soon.
Please keep in mind Sir, that even if circumstances don't permit you to perform here (though I'll pray for DT to perform in India), I'll make sure, my brother and I watch you live atleast once together somewhere in this world. It would be a crowning glory and a fitting tribute for the both of us to see you, OUR HEROS,live.

Wishing you the very best in all your future endeavours Sir. Rock on! \m/ '

Ha Ha, I know.. I know.. I AM nuts.. carve that onto a wall and you'd be right. :D But hey, that's all about the magic that DT works on me you know. Its inexplicable. So yeah. Till the madness continues I'll just enjoy it and take it all in. All hail! \m/
