    Did you read the whole thing??? The last few "reviews" have some
    pretty harsh (read: shitty) criticisms of DT. One person said he
    threw away (honestly) his IAW CD although he liked WDADU, and another
    said DT couldn't be classified as a progressive band and that with IAW
    they had sold out by writing MTV-ish songs. "A notch above pop-rock."

    What the hell?

    Well, in scanning the entry for Rush, the reviewer called Neil's
    lyrics "pseudo-garbage". Well I think I've seen the light! Current crap
    like "...there's no sex in your violence" (actually, I like the
    music to that song) is *much* superior to anything Peart has
    written. Yeah! After all, the dude's a high school dropout. Who
    wants to listen to all that pseudo-intellectual crap. Great,
    now I can take all my Rush CDs, tapes, LPs and boots to the range
    and I can roast weenies by my Rush shirt bonfire this weekend!
    If I get any more pissed off, I just might do the same with all
    my DT stuff--- those sellouts! The first to go will be my
    autographed DT hat...

    Encyclopedia? Please.

    Great news for the Dutch subscribers.
    DT will be playing live for the national
    radio 3. This show will be broadcasted
    on friday the 17th from 12:00 -2:00(so
    actually it's the 18th).
    (BTW: ik heb het over Countdown Cafe)
    There will be interviews and DT will
    play several jams!

    I will record the show (along with
    a stereo copy of HBB's DT coverage)
    Anyone interested?

    Attention UK jammers. I now have my copy of Music Meant To Be Heard and
    I hereby pronounce the first UK dub site to be...open!

    Please E me for details of how to get hold of the dubs and I'll reply as
    soon as I can (I'm in Edinburgh next week with no net access so please
    bear with me, I'll be back home on 19th). Peter and Matt, I'll bring
    you're copies with me on 15th March, if you can wait that long <g>.

    It seems that there are only going to be two dub sites covering the whole
    of the UK so please be patient with us, we may have a lot of work on our
    hands!

    As has been mentioned in other posts, please show you're appreciation to
    both Jennifer and Kevin for all their hard work and generosity.

    Cheers,

    Mark.

    PS. This is completely unrelated but, Generations finally opened over
    here last night. Wasn't the saucer crash just THE most impressive
    special effects sequence in the history of movies! :)

    the GEPR gives lots of people's opinions about stuff so you can hear
    what people think about it and try to make a judgement as to whether
    you want to try it or not. there's no rule that says it can only have
    good reviews in it. that's not the point of it. nobody told you to get
    rid of your stuff, just some people dont like dt and they dont like
    rush. just deal with it and stop whining about it. the gepr is a good
    source of information (there are more than 2 bands in it...
    hundreds..) and its very useful whether some of the reviewers like DT
    or not.

        Thanks to everyone who contributed information; it's much
    appreciated! :) As for Jim Martin, I heard he left because he wasn't
    really that much of a part of the band; he would just kinda come in and do
    his guitar parts and leave and wasn't really into the world touring
    stuff. I don't know; that's just what I heard.
        Last night I borrowed a live import FNM disc entitled "Live: at the
    Brixton Academy" which was really cool (recorded, I'm assuming, during
    the "Real Thing" tour). It included: Falling to Pieces, The Real Thing,
    Epic, War Pigs, From Out of Nowhere, We Care a Lot, Zombie Eaters, and Edge
    of the World, with two previously unreleased studio tracks: The Grade
    (really cool; all acoustic guitar) and The Cowboy Song. Really good
    disc!
        And on a closing note, I can't wait for the new album! I'm also
    going to check out Mr. Bungle ASAP. Thanks again to everyone who
    provided info! :)

    I agree that this is better than Time Machine. Better quality and better
    intro to summer song.

    You guys and girls probably already new this but pull out your Marillion
    Clutching at Straws cd. It turns out that Fish wrote the lyrics to Just For
    The Record at the Marquee Club in London. Is this the same place that DT
    Live at the Marquee was recorded? If so I just thought it was a cool
    coincidence. This Marquee club is very cool.

    Message-ID: <m0rdQKA-0000tRC@cubnt3.cube.net>

      Dear fellow Ytsejammers!

    Most of you know that DREAM THEATER would like to release a
    studio-version of their 20-minute song, "A Change of Season"
    on an EP to be recorded this spring. So far, ACOS has only been
    available as the live version on the "Dance of Eternity" bootleg.

     As I understand, it's a record company decision whether to allow them
    to do this or not, so I would like to ask you to send me an e-mail in which
    you comment on if you want to see a EP with ACOS come out, if you would buy
    it, and so on! I will then print all of those e-mails out, compile them in a
    folder, and send them to DT's management so that they can present a united
    group of voices to the record company to prove that DT has very active and
    enthusiastic fans and that we really want to see this happen!

    Please do help to try to move something and send your mail to:

    freak@cube.net
    and write in the subject-line: ACOS

    I think it should be good as well if you signed your mail with your full
    name (not only pseudonyms) and mention the country & state where you
    come from. And I hope our japanese ytsejammers will as well take part as
    everybody from europe and the US and every other country of course....

    German jammers attention:

    A friend of mine and I were at a local record store and
    saw a Helloween cd called "Chameleon". Neither one of
    us had ever heard of it, and he's a big Helloween fan so
    he bought it. The copyright date was 1993, but they also
    had a cd-single for a song called "Perfect Gentleman"? (I
    think that was the name) and the date was 1994! Do they
    have a new cd or is one coming out soon? Please email me
    and let me know. Thanks.

    So the reviewer thinks that DT is a notch above pop-rock. All that means
    (to me) is that if I like DT, then I will probably not agree with this
    reviewer's reviews and that I should move on remember the names of the
    people who wrote reviews that I liked.

    Also, from what I remember, you can submit your own reviews. If you don't
    like a review, submit your own explaining what you like about the album
    (or band).

    As to Rush, since when has it been a crime to dislike them? Some of the
    lyrics really put off people (especially the ones where Peart preaches).
    If you're the kind of person who dislikes Rush, then these anti-Rush
    reviews will let you know that you can trust these reviewers' reviews.

    On the other hand, I don't think you should trust this reviewer if
    he says (for example) that the band "Rush Sux" is the hottest band
    to walk the face of the earth...

    Understatement of the year :)

    Most major bands have played the Marquee at one time or another (except for the Beatles--I don't think they played there). The Who, The Rolling Stones, etc., etc., have played there.

    Many prog bands have also played there. Twelfth Night's "Live and Let Live" album was recorded there (last concert with Geoff Mann). Dream Theater has a live album there.

    Marillion played the Marquee early on in their career. They sold it out many times.

    For other examples of Marquee performances, check out the album that was released on the Marquee's anniversary a year (or more) ago. You can also see concerts mentioned in Kerrang! magazine. (I think there might also have been a book as part of the anniversary, but I'm not sure.)
