    I think the drums are a major problem...they make the album sound
    sterile, and I think they have a lot to do with the mostly unfounded
    criticism that DT sounds robotic...Mike sounds a zillion times better
    live.

    I&W does sound brilliant (just listened to it yesterday, with
    headphones, totally engrossing myself in it), but I think it has more to
    do with the arrangements than the mix. I think a monkey could've
    produced that album and gotten it to sound great...but it could've been
    better. The snare really bugs me.

    > Well, I really fear that the new album will not give me so much colour
    > with strenght and so much warmth and passion with its power and energy
    > as I&W did....but lets wait and see.......

    Why not? It's the same guys making the music...sounds to me like it's
    going to be even more I&W than I&W, if you know what I mean...the only
    thing that bothers me is Janes Addiction...aren't they, like,
    alternative? not sure I want to see DT take that route. Although
    whatever they do tends to be really cool...

    No no no, you don't understand...when I'm here, at night, alone, this
    world is mine...reality conforms to what I want it to be. If I say
    something is cool, then it is. And in my world, hanging upside down like
    a bat is not just cool, it's practically heroism.

    p.s. I need a drummer, bad. Mail me for info.

    oh yeah, and check out http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/usr/sb7h/home

    hello Kevin Hulme,

      I am wondering what you would be selling this poster for. I would
    really like to have some display of Dream Theater material rather than the
    long box for Images and Words. I will be willing to pay for the shipping
    and handling also.

      Any response, send to:
    merrell@cs.fsu.edu
    instead of the list.

    thanks,
    Doug 'McKenzie' Merrell

    Subject: Shows with different stuff...

    Well, I was just listening through some of my tapes, and copying for
    various people, and came across a few different instrumentals... I
    was wondering how many of you out there have found some unique shows,
    with songs not usually heard...

    Among them are an instrumental heard at L'Amours on 1/8/93 that almost
    reminded me of the theme song from Goodfellas... A really cool little
    jam. Another one was on a tape from Pe Locamotive (sp) from Paris...
    As you all probably know by now, LitS is full of them... What other
    cool songs do any of you have, and do any of the dates match these?

    Well, again just passing along some info that I find at various places... I heard a reply from someone to my post on one of the usenet boards abiut the FW release info that I posted here, and the person, who says that they are very close to FW, said that it is possible that the new CD will be released by July 11, and is called Turtle, or something to that effect... Again, just passing along any info that I can find... -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | This world is spinning around me | | This world is spinning without me | | Every day sends future to past | | Every breath leaves me one less to my last | | Dream Theater Pull Me Under Images and Words | | Michael Burstin Brandeis University | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Let's Go Pens Let's Go Pens Lets Go Pens Let's Go Pens | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ For info about Dream Theater, finger mikeb@cs.brandeis.edu

    Just some passing along some info from my AOL source whose roommate is DT's tour manager...

How many times did they hit Boston before, I wonder... I'll be at all of the shows I can possibly make it to... :)
