I want to first reiterate that I will have this access around
February or March, as above stated. It is at that time that a CD burner
will be delivered to my location. I already had requests from people
looking to have CD's made... please: to all of you: don't ask. It's going
to be hard enough just making them to sell on my own, after all, I am
just a humble college student like most of you!
> Great! I'd like to have a copy. Are we going to have a sign-up list?
Definitely. In fact one of the conditions of my acquiring the CD
burner is that I have to have 200 orders right from the get-go. Thus, I
will be putting together something like the following:
Availability on CD of special limited editions of:
(these will have Ytsejam in the liners and be very specific.)
* Rush: The Neil Peart Solo Montage, Expanded/Updated w/better quality shows!
* Dream Theater: When Dream And Today Unite
* Dream Theater: Subconscious (the unreleased/rare tracks incl. ACOS)
* Dream Theater: (something) live from minidisc from Tucson, AZ 12/4/94
* Dream Theater: (something) live from minidisc from Tempe, AZ 12/5/94
Note that these will mainly be just special edition things for
Ytsejam. I don't want to break into the large scale CD bootleg market
because of the legalities of it. I will definitely make gifts of each
disc to Mike Portnoy. :) The whole reason for the CD burner is to enter
the MPEG CDROM market legitimately.. I just think this would be a great
way to share the benefits of the machine.
Since I'm a diehard Rush and Dream Theater FANATIC, you KNOW
these discs will be done as well as possible, with accurate liners and
decent printing, indexing, etc.
If I can get at least 200 discs worth of interest (now that'd
only mean 40 people if each of you bought all five, and there are
hundreds on the list) then the CD project will be thumbs up. Again, don't
give me the orders just YET, I will ask for them very close to delviery
time of the CD burner to keep things current.

Well, count me in for a copy! I think you'll get quite a few other takers, so
it'll probably be worth doing. IT'll be a collector's item two years from
now...

The relation between the bands is that they released new stuff at the same
record label... there are also promo posters for these three bands together.
I have one just for DT that says "Wach auf! Dream Theater - Awake -
Das neue Album". :)
You speak a bit German ?

<<Somebody wrote:

I was the one who asked that. LaBrie said that all the vocals on the album
were his, except for some backing vocals. He said it was Purdell on Silent
Man, and that JP didn't do any singing.
Also in the FAQ, they wanted to know the date that DT opened for Marillion.
The date for the Ritz show was 11/14/89. This was also Dominici's last show.
I also believe that this is the extra stuff which is on one of the double cd
boots (Consciously Unreal?) although it's not the full show.
They also opened for Marillion at Sundance on Long Island on 6/9/90. It was
all instrumental except that Steve(?) Stone was introduced as the new
vocalist and he came out and sang A Change Of Season. The band promptly
canned him after his horrible performance.

I want to go see DT in Seattle, but I called Ticketmaster this morning and
the show is sold out! I didn't expect this to happen (though I'm glad
ticket sales are good there)! If anyone has tickets to the Seattle show
(preferably two), please let me know ASAP.
Thanks,
- Jeff

To the person who was talking about being able to hit all the notes James signs:
I don't know if you know about "falsetto" (you said you knew nothing of singing) but men have 2 distinct types of singing voice. their normal range and a falsetto which is much higher and softer. What makes Jamet et al such good singers is that they can sing their songs without going into a falsetto voice (for most of it)
Example: Before I had any singing training, I could do about 1.5 octave in my normal register, and add about an extra octave and a half with my falsetto. Now, with a little training I can do over 2 octaves without. I didn't increase my "total" range, since those notes were at the top of ny normal register, but I have a wider range without resorting to the soft and distinctly not-metal-like sound of a falsetto :)
Please, if people have real knowledge (I have bare minimum knowledge of singing) feel free to elaborate/correct me (though nhot on my range - I know that) :)
