This Promo marks one of the first appearance of the band Dream Theater (still under the monicker Majesty) on Compact Disc.

On September 30 - October 1 at the Sheraton Universal Hotel in Los Angeles, Concrete Marketing, Metal Blade Records and RIP Magazine joined forces to create the first annual Foundations Forum convention.
The theme of FF88 was the credibility and respectability of metal within the music industry as a whole.[2] Attendance, etc.
The Keynote speaker for the event was Sharon Osbourne and it incorporated parties in honor of RIP Magazine's second anniversary and Concrete's fourth.
A two disc compilation cd was available free of charge to those attending the event, showcasing bands that Concrete was working with.
