    Was tonight (Sunday) supposed to be the day for the radio interview in LA? Please fill us in if it really did go on.

    Thanks!

    I can pick up the Majesty Demo CD for $26.99. Is that good? Should I rush out and get it? It's got purple writing on the cover, and has a picture of the band on back, from 1986 I think.

    Thanks for the opinions!

    -Mark Whitaker no good .sig yet

Seems YM doesn't like him at all. > Since when is Malmsteen THE MASTER OF MUSICAL TASTE. Saying that if he thinks its good, then it must be good is ridiculous. Hey, I think Malmsteen is an incredibly talented (I've seen him live twice) guitarist, but I think his song writing is pretty lame. Everything sounds like an opportunity for him to show off his ability to play fast arpeggio's. I'll take DREAM THEATER over Malmsteen any time. Malmsteen can play faster, but who cares!

    I have no clue about the "skip" you're talking about, although I was at that show in particular at the Limelight, but I think that it would be the transition from recording to live playing that would probably explain it.

    The problem I have is this....I WANT THE VIDEO OF THE SHOW!!!!!!! I've been trying for a while to get it, but the only reply I got was from a guy in Italy who said his version was not in very good condition, generation- wise. If anyone in the US has it, PLEASE REPLY!!!!! I'm dying to get it.... Just send me some E-mail to the following address, with a price.....

    ABALKIEW@VAXC.STEVENS-TECH.EDU

    I would be eternally grateful to anyone who can help me out......
