    Hi, Mr. & Ms. 'jammers in all over the world! I'm from Japan just want to sing a song for Mr. Portnoy for his happy birthday on April 20.

    Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you, Happy Birthday dear Mike Portnoy, Happy Birthday to you.

    In January I sang happy birthday song for John Myung at the Urawa Bunka Center. And today I feel like singing for Mike, so if anyone wants to sing along with me, just do it!

    Next time will be on May 5th... Bye then!

    > From: stern.35@postbox.acs.ohio-state.edu (Jeff Stern) > > I have no reason to buy it, tough since it is supposed to be horrible.

    I like it alot, and I've listened to it more than I've listened to Little Earthquakes (but then again, I bought it when it first came out).

    If you like Hard Rock (*NOT* *HEAVY* *METAL*) female vocals, then you'd probably like this. It's in the same vein as Heart or Pat Benatar.

    In its genre, it's pretty good. Imaginative in places, fun in others; always interesting. And the final Etienne Suite reminds me of Kate Bush's "Hounds of Love".

    So it's worth listening to if you like Tori or Hard Rock. It's not worth listening to if you only like piano and vocals.

    PS. The not heavy metal note is there because I keep hearing Y Kant Tori Read described as a bad heavy metal band. Compare it against Rock Goddess and you'll see what I mean about it being Hard Rock and not Heavy Metal.

    Hi all,

    My friend, who is a local rep for Virgin Records, just gave me a copy of King Crimson's new album which is not out yet. I'm not a King Crimson fan YET, but with al of the talk on here, I will be soon. I haven't listened to it yet, but will post about it soon.

    Glad to see that you have discovered them. I am also a big fan of John Payne, but I have not been successful in finding out what else he has done, besides the help he gave to Geoff Downes on _Vox Humana_. As far as the tracks, and favs go, Who Will Stop The Rain? is an epic in my book, but I like all but 1 or 2 songs on the album, so...

    They have an even newer album out, called _Aria_ but it was a UK only release so you might be able to find it at an import place. Before Aqua, John Wetton of King Crimson was the lead singer, and the band had a little bit different style. You might want to try _Then and Now_. It has both their top hits from the early 80s, and a few new songs on it, one of which you might recognize. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask or e-mail me personally.

    Babs, Although I don't have an Orion Blue Book here with me, I would guess your guitar's value at around $150-200, depending on condition. Also, do you have a case for it? A good hardshell case would add a little bit to the price, too. Hope this helps in your decision!

    Hey There, Thanks to everyone who filled me in concerning the ontos of YKTR. I'm actually pretty excited to get it (even if it does suck) just to see how she does in a rock milieu. I pulled a GIF of Tori from those days off of the net, and it is pretty funny to see her dressed up like Lita Ford. DT content: Is the Winter included on the Subconcious CD the infamous cover of the Tori Amos song? Ooh ooh, I just remembered a thread from a while ago that was never resolved and I wanted to submit my $0.02, but I forgot to. (My wife calls it philosopher's disease.) Anyhow, the word Erotomania does not mean an uncontrollable, abnormal sexual desire (you guys were correct in labeling that nymphomania). It does mean an abnormally strong sexual obsession esp. the delusion that one is having an affair with a superior, stranger, etc. . .. (That's from Random House incidentally.) How do you think that relates to the other two songs in A Mind Beside Itself? Consider the line from Voices that reads Sex is death, Death is sex. I don't know, perhaps I'm analyzing way too much again. There does seem to be a hint toward an obsessive relationship or a stalker or something. A penny (not really) for your thoughts. I'm going to be anal about the lyrics for a little while longer in order to see if there's a different theme that I just being too obtuse to recognize.

    Hmm... I really do like his version... One of the things that I especially liked about it is the little samples used during the song... I'd like to hear DT use them for the EP... I don't know, as far as voice goes, which one I like better, though.

Their new album "As the World", released recently by SONY is starting to raise eyebrows. The band comes from a suburban town outside of Philadelphia and has quite a world-wide buzz, thanks to INTERNET. Chat with echolyn and learn more about their music when they appear in Center Stage.

    Also the last line of Metropolis: Love is the Dance of Eternity

    And the last line of I Corinthians 13: And now the these three remain, faith hope and love, but the greatest of these is love.

    Besure to "fade" left and right the second or third time you listen to it, because at some parts the two trios split up and each play on their sparate channels. So you can hear two songs going on at the same time. I've heard this CD is quite good. Hope you like it.

    Being a paltry 2-year self-taught guitarist myself, I wish I hadn't wasted the $25 on this book, I can't play anything fer shit. It does make a nice keepsake, tho... (I can play all of the rhythms, my soloing sux)...

    That's what I told my drummer... He used to use Vic Firth's and Pro Marks until he bought his hot stix because Mike uses them. Poser. He breaks them all of the time. It's OK, tho, he looks dumb, not me... (Doh, I hate dropping picks!)

    I love the list and all, but, I tire of reading 500+ messages every freakin' time I log in... Oh, well, I'll cope....

    OK, Any U.S. tour dates for DT yet, I'm dying to hear when they're (if they're) coming to Boise, ID. I'm going to QR on the 11th of May, and I'm really trying to get backstage passes (My local radio station is giving them away, mucho trivia, I can handle it). They also play The Silent Man on a regular (very regular, I heard it just an hour ago) basis.

    Please don't cut on people because they don't like Type-O, even if they rip them apart. I ripped FW and look where I got. (I just bought Inside Out recently, and Monument DOES ROCK!)

    My band is finally playing some DT songs! We're going to learn Under a Glass Moon, I'm gonna play The Silent Man, Wait for Sleep, and Space-Dyed Vest! (I'm a closet keyboardist!) We've finally cracked my guitar player and he loves DT.

    BTW, who was it who requested that SoundFX (a music show) play the Silent Man video. Dammit! You beat me to the punch! Too bad they can't play it... I was gonna send my request today, but it was last night that it was announced. HEH! I'll request something els then...

    I appologize about the non-DT info., but I just wanted to pass this information on to all of you. I just got an e-mail from Bill Berends', guitarist/lead singer for the progressive band MasterMind and he wanted me to pass this message on to all of you:

    MasterMind has just recently signed with the Dutch East India Trading Company for the North American release of MasterMind III, "Tragic Symphony." It is scheduled to be released the last week in May. The Dutch East India Co. is our nation's largest independant distributor, and the album will be available at retail level, so ask your local CD store to order it. In addition, MasterMind is presently working out possibilities for a USA tour to support the release. To get onto the MasterMind e-mail list, forward your address to: <bberends@nyc.pipeline.com>

    Again, sorry about the non-DT info, but this is a real good opportunity to hear some more great music.
