Hello out there in digital-land.....
I just recieved an advance-copy of the forthcoming Fates Warning-CD "Inside Out"
and it is amazing. the style is somehow like on "Parallels", but darker and in
some songs heavier (sometimes it sounds like a mixture of "Parallels" and "No
Exit"). The first time I listened to it, i was a bit dissapointed, because it
is not as catchy as "Parallels" but as i listened again and again it became a
killer. If you loved "Parallels" or/and "No Exit", you'll love this one. If
you heard about Fates Warning for the first time then check it out and listen
to songs loke "Pale Fire", "Shelter Me" and 8 more. If you are into progressive
Rock (Metal) this is a must. Nuff said.....
Releasedate (in Europe) 30.06.94

I was at that Limelight show with the Dreambill, and it was amazing. The
floor is pretty small, but there are two levels of balconies, so if
someone didn't want to get stuck in the pit, they could go hang out up
there. One of the balconies lead to a staircase to the stage, but that
was blocked off on the stage side. There were however quite a few female
groupies on the other side of the barricade.
This weekend I was at a record show and saw a single CD boot called Dance
of Eternity (not the one from the Limelight). It is from a show in
Buffalo, and contains the standard track listings, including Status
Seeker. Anyone know of this boot?

Yeah, I really love Magellan. They're definitely not as
heavy as Dream Theater but they tend to have driving, complex
music that I love. It's more keyboard oriented, without the
searing solos of Petrucci and Myung, but it all flows together
very well with cool rhythms and great dynamics. It did take me a
while to get used to the singer, but I really enjoy his style now.
I'd recommend either of their albums: "Hour of Restoration"
or "Impending Ascension" (their most recent). They are working
on a new album on which they are talking about going in a harder
direction (like DT). I just hope they don't lose their distinct
style too much.
Unfortunately, both albums are extremely hard to find in
the USA (even though they're a US band!). I know of a number of
places that you can probably mail order it, so send me email if
you're interested and I'll send you the phone numbers.

I still can get Lords of Sound for anyone that wants it (the guy who
originally wanted it decided otherwise.) This CD will cost $25 plus
shipping (so figure about $27.50). Please note...I can only get one right
now, so first come first serve! Also, anyone who can get the
Instru-Mentals boot foraround $25 or less...$27 max...please contact
me!!!! I want this one bad!

According to the circle of fifths, and the pattern of sharps and flats:
If the alphabet continued as notes progressed (Using Major Key Sig's) (i.e
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, etc.) eventually the key of Z Major
would have 4 sharps.
