Hello,
There is an article in the local music mag (Ft. Lauderdale,
Florida) about Fates Warning (cover story, no less). I have 10
copies of the magazine. If anyone is interested in getting a copy,
I'd be willing to send one your way. First 10 to respond will get
a copy. I can probably get more if need be, they are free after all.
Let me know if you'd be interested. If the first 10 go quickly, I'll
round up some more...
take care,

Message-ID: <01HMS63HP4B6006NV3@udavxb.oca.udayton.edu>
I know a couple of you jammers out there were discussing Yngwie
and his scalloped fretboards, and here's my five cents on the ostantatious,
arrogant one:
First off, about the man himself. Psychologically speaking
I believe he is a pathological liar as well as a jerk (seen him twice, and
the second time the show was cancelled midway through due to his drummer
almost beating the shit out of him onstage). My brother used to belong
to his fan club 'Malmsteen's Militia', and they sent out a "biography" of
Yngwie (which I beleive is just a total crock). It stsated that Yngwie
was always a rebellious child and used to "take his Harley and ride it through
his school" (which is kind of the crap I'm talking about. He used to work
in a music shop in Sweden fixing guitars as well as other six stringed
instruments (violins, fiddles, etc. . ) which led to his accumulation
of the scalloped fretboard, w hich he supposedly came across when he took
a vintage guitar (strat, I think), and just scalloped each of the frets,
allowing him to annunciate notes more harmonically due to the concaveness
of the fret. Well, that's all I have to say, other than the fact that I
do think he is a great guitar player as well as a songwriter (too bad
he's such a stereotypical egoistic jerk)

I get the distinct impression you're new to Ytsejam, John. : ) Well, we're
all new at one time or another! Welcome...
To ask who has heard Derek is an understatement! : ) (Although you guys out
in the SE are still waiting, I know...) During the first leg of the
"pre-tour," there was numerous discussions about the shows, and, obviously,
Derek was a hot topic. I would say that opinion is mixed about Derek -
mainly because it's hard to let go. Personally, I think Derek did an awesome
job (I caught the December 1st show in SF), especially considering he only
had two weeks to learn the stuff!!
As far as whether Derek sticks around, well, that depends on how the other
band members feel, if he "fits."

Dear all,
Those who expressed interest in the Radio 1 show last night in the UK listen
up !!
Dream Theater only played three somgs, they were live there with Bruce
Dickinson, and hardly talked at all, but the three somgs they did were very
good : Caught In A Web, Lifting Shadows...., 6:00. I recorded it on a Type II
(chrome) TDK SF60 and the news bulletin at 9:30pm was missed out as I swapped
sides.
So I have the full hour rock show with lots of things on it, but only 3 D.T.
songs, sorry there weren't more, I was dissapointed as well.....
Thanks to all those who expressed interest and wrote to me, let me know now
if you still want copies, and we'll sort them out, I will only find out cost
after people mail me in response to this letter,
hear from you soon, Rob Chinneck, robchin@liv.ac.uk

Jammers, Jamettes and everything else in between,
I wanted to drop you a line to let you know that I am available as

If you would like a copy of the demo, email me

I would be willing for a blank tape and postage both ways or a

Hello Ytsejammers!
The show in Duesseldorf (Germany) at Saturday the 11th will be presented by
WDR 1, so I guess there will be a DT feature somewhen.
To introduce myself and to make you fellow Ytsejam-readers over there in
the US a bit jealous: Yes, I know DT since WDADU. Yes, I love this album.
And yes, it was never a problem to get a copy here in Germany. MCA are
even selling it as a "Rock Classic" at mid-price. I saw it once for 11$.
But while you in the US seem to have no problem getting the UK-Single of
"Lie", I cannot find it here. So, German Ytsejammers: Where can I get it
here (Ruhrgebiet oder Koeln, vielleicht Ddorf)?
I found it remarkable that many of you like a wide range of music, from
Marillion to Morbid Angel (as I do), but NOBODY seems to like Queen. Try
their early albums, especially Queen II, they are a lot better than the
well known newer ones.

Hi all, I recently picked up a copy of Magellan's _Impending
Ascension_ cd, and I've listened to it about ten times. What can I
say? I guess the prog rock genre just isn't for me. These guys
really remind me of Yes, especially the vocals. I found the vocals
to be very annoying, and I didn't like the dominance of the keybords
over the guitar. There were a few passages scattered about that
were a little more to my tastes, but it was too long in between them.
Also, the music seemed to be too "happy" for me; I prefer darker,
more depressed music.
I will say that the songs were well crafted, though, and if
you're into prog rock, I'm sure you'll like this disc.
After trying Marillion's _Misplaced Childhood_ and now Magellan, I
think it's safe to say that the prog rock genre is not for me.
-------------------
But wait! There is so much prog rock to explore don't give up yet!
The two groups you mentioned are in a sub-category called neo-progressive,
which focus on lush keyboards and a bit more commercial than other types
of prog, like symphonic, space rock, canterbury, fusion-oriented, Italian, etc.
If you like dark music I can recommend stuff that will frighten small children
and animals! (Il Balletto di Bronzo, King Crimson, some Anglagard come to
mind).
What do you like for music? Maybe I could recommend something that you
would like. Check out the Giblartar Encyclopedia of Progressive Rock
to find something more to your liking.....
If you like creativity and originality in music there is some prog band
that will suit your liking! That is what prog is all about fot the most part.

There is that little ending set in SDV. Although not on a piano and it
runs into a fade fast, it is still there. Just CRANK it up and you'll
hear it! :D
My views: (delete here to end if you don't care to know my opinion! :D )
Song for Eric (for Tori)
I heard the original (Thanks Jennifer!) and I have to say, I like the
work he has done musically to create an atmosphere. As Mike said, *The
music behind the "I See you in my dreams" line is awe-inspiring.*
VERY powerful.
Space-Dye Vest
You thought the one on Awake was depressing??? Ha! Hide away all of the
sharp objects and lock up the medicine chest or you might not be around with
us to hear the rest of the demos. The middle sample is different than on
Awake. Talk about hitting a groove! It is a lot quieter than the one on Awake.
Even more depressing without the guitar powercords. (sorry, John P.) Really
makes a statement that makes you feel the one tortured soul crying out! God,
after listening to it, I jumped out of my bedroom window. Good thing I live
on the ground floor. ;)
Blanket (I Buried Me Wife and I Dance On Top of Her)
Kinda puts me to mind of what Pink Floyd would sound like in the 1990's
if Roger Waters was still in the group. (please, no flames! ) The singing
running off into wild crazy tangents with the music blending and battling
with itself. Wild!
Hollow
A little grungy. It has a ton of distortion and says, hey, I don't care,
*Just call me hollow!*
Roll Away The Stone
Catchy, the techno touch really throws you for a loop because you
get used to the techno feel of being upbeat and moving and angry.
Shallow
Again, the tortured soul crying out.
Nora
A message in the lyrics for someone. Self doubt? Self pity? Pity of Nora?
A love triangle. *words take hold of my memory and history changes*
Remembering back to a time where he was naive to a betrayal? Now that he
sees it, pieces fall into places... Very depressing. *I know I know I know.*
On this one, I already locked the window I jumped out of for SDV. Light the
candles, sit on the bare floor in a empty room with a rubik's cube and wait
for the cenobites to come and take you away.
Even The Waves
Has a theological undertone to it and applies it philosophically. Deep.
Sun Orange, Small
Very floaty. Nice. Allows you to drift and then carries you places.
Very nicely done.
I am in agreement with Mike on the type of stuff on the demo. It definately
is not DT. Don't listen to it expecting to hear it as a spinoff or as
I&W, part II. If you do, you'll be disappointed. Take it as it is. It's own
entity. It is awesome in it's own right. Some of you might have to give it
repeated listenings in order to let it grow on you. The more I hear it, the
more I like it.
Thanks for letting me stand on the soapbox!

PEOPLE!...we don't know for sure that no one taped the covers gig.
All we know is there weren't any jammers who taped it. Not every DT taper
has access to e-mail. (I didn't until last year)
I'm willing to bet it was taped. I've got a tape of the full show
of the Marquee London gig that got released. Mine is an audience
tape....so there is at least one guy with his head on straight in the UK.
All it takes is some searching....perhaps a Goldmine ad would do
the trick.

Listen to the keyboard part where the song, "That Time of the

Message-ID: <Pine.HPP.3.91.950208091625.27583A-100000@mcl.mcl.ucsb.edu>
First, and as a devout fan of the X, let me say that it took me a
while to appreciate them. I just started to get a clue about tunes when
I heard these guys and i bought faithhopelove and gretchen first too. I
was tripping over the vocals, chords, gospel influence at first.
However, now that I can comprehend the stuff they do I'm really into
them. Most of their music is not progressive like that gnarly bridge in
Metropolis but they insert varying time signatures in their tunes to keep
it interesting. Their rhythms are atypical on many tunes as well. Their
most recent album Dogman is probably the least progressive but has
probably that fattest and most tasty riffs I have ever heard.
Far, Far Away(Out of the Silent Planet) is probably the most progressive;
it has a bridge with weird punches. Golilox, also on this album, is a
ballad but has great accents.
Gretchen Goes to Nebraska; Over my head has a tinge of trip before the
first solo, Never be the Same has the most wicked riff and hokey punches
to end the album; listen to where the downbeat falls with the drummers
beat as they cycle the riff. Message is a great example of bouncing
between 3/4 and 4/4 so covertly that listeners can hardly tell. That's
their strength; With DT, no one can help but trip out at a song like
Metropolis, but King's X is more likely to embellish their songs with
progressive tinges.
We Were Born to Be Loved(FHL) has burly rhythms and insanely syncopated
punches at the end; a must see live. I just can't help it is another
great tune; try singing that and playing at the same time, they all do!
King's X(self-titled) has Lost in Germany, a great riff with a measure of
5/4 that occurs once or twice; these are the morsels that one must learn
to salivate over. The Chariot Song, in drop-B tuning, has some burly
punches to top it off.
Dogman- this is the most in your face album ever, because of their new
producer Brendan O'Brien; Everything's right there with you; a must
listen for anyone who can appreciate Doug's soulful voice and fat, juicy
riffs; Pain(like Silent Wind on FAIThhopelove) is the most progressive
they really get, as in both tunes they play a bit in 6/4, sounding
straightforward but yet satiating the seeking.
Lastly, I must recommend that the X be seen live by all; they
touch their audiences. If you go, you will walk out musically fed and
one happy camper.
Also, for anyone who is looking for music like the X the
Gallactic Cowboys are for you. They are a hybrid of slightly progressive
speed metal and four-part harmony. Does anyone know if they're getting
anywhere? Last I heard they got dropped from Geffen.

get in touch with him if you feel like confirming. Oh, for those that want to
know (Hi Fred!) the tickets cost me 13.50 (I think) and you can get the
number for the Forum in Time Out. If anyone wants the number and can't find
it, I'll try and dig it out for them.
Regarding the covers gig... To those that enquired (erm...hi again Fred:)
yep, I spoke to Mike at that gig-of-a-life-time. My girlfriend won the
tickets with Raw (yeah, it does have it's uses). For those that keep having a
go for not recording the show. GIMME A FUCKIN' BREAK! I know we're all pissed
that noone has a copy of this yet, but I really am so broke, I couldn't even
afford the pen and paper to write down the songs they played. I'm only glad
that my girlfriend offered to drive me down for free, otherwise I couldnt've
gone at all.
However...I have a fairly decent (FM Stereo, Maxell Chrome tape) recording of
the session DT did last night on 1 FM, the Bruce Dickenson Rock Show. I will
also be getting a recording of next weeks HBB (hopefully in stereo), AND I'm
constantly recording Noisy Mothers in the hope that they'll show some stuff
as well. So if you'll all bear with me, I can get out some dubs of this stuff
to those that want them. I'll also post my thoughts on the 1 FM Session when
I have the time.
Everyone check out this weeks Kerrang! and Raw. The former has a review of
the Covers gig (They gave it a Elektrik 5 out of 5) and the latter has a
fairly candid interview with James LaBrie (Who apparently lost his virginity
at the age of 17, with his now-wife Karen, on his parents living room floor :)
On a 'rychean note, the band will be appearing in Nottingham at Way Ahead (I
think) on Monday 13th Feb, and they'll be doing an accoustic set in London on
the 10th March, but I forget which record shop that's at. Anyone going to
they're Wolverhampton gig, get back to me, and we'll meet up somewhere...?!
Right, sorry for the length. I'm off to mix up a Birmingham Vindaloo (I kid
you not)
Later,
Matt

Yes, I like the demos... I don't think the songs are like SDV (and even that
sounds odd at first listen! You just expect James to break in somewhere...)
I was discussing the sound with my hubby, and he said it's slightly more
"mainstream." He did not mean this in a bad way, just to suggest that it
might attract more listeners to Kevin - and, possibly, to Dream Theater, in
turn. I don't know how to classify it... Some songs lead toward rockers,
but others have an alternative (is there a new name we can give this genre??)
feel. We also see a new side to Kevin, as he's playing bass on some tracks.
With that, I will just mention again that I am a dubbing site for the West
U.S.A. Contact me privately for more info...

I think that there are only three for me. They are:
1. Images and Words
2. Lillian Axe - Psychoschizophrenia
3. Joe Satriani - Master of the Art
Ed
PS: Does anyone else have Master of the Art? If so, are there tracks
listed on the cover that arent on the cd? I'm wondering if mine is a
defect. Thanks in advance.

Well, once again, they have decided to restructure the web server at

home page is now accessable from:

If you have links to my page, please correct them for access to my
