A while back I queried you 'jammers as to who of you were musicians as well as
the interest in a digest where we could communicate with each other relative to
our own efforts in bands and in writing and producing Prog music.
Well with the extremely great help of Ken Bibb this type of forum is now
available. Many of you contacted me offline from the Ytsejam to tell me about
your own projects and I'd like to invite you to subsribe to this new forum.
It is called Progmaestros and you can subscribe as follows:
Send the following e-mail to PROGMAESTROS-REQUEST@ARASTAR.COM
subject should be "asdf".
Text should read exactly:
subscribe progmaestros firstname lastname
You'll receive a welcome file
You can see the info file by sending:
info progmaestros
to PROGMAESTROS-REQUEST@ARASTAR.COM (or listserv@arastar.com) with a
subject line of "asdf".
I welcome you to get involved. Let's help ourselves and the bands we like to
lsten to (DT, FW, Queensryche etc.etc.etc.etc.etc.etc.) break through by
promoting Prog music to the idiots who do the programming and run the music
business today.
Sorry for the extremely limited DT content.
Regards,
Paul

Message-ID: <021795235750Rnf0.79b6@flatearth.xs4all.nl>
I've just recorded the Dream Theater special that was broadcasted on the
Dutch radio a few minutes ago. They interviewed John Petrucci who was on
the phone from Denmark. The interview wasn't very interesting, because
the interviewer knew virtually nothing about the band. With questions
like 'How is the tour going in Europe' and 'What are your plans for the
future' you're not going to clever answers in return. (God, Vanessa
Warwick looks like a Greek philosopher in comparison to Kees Baars...
and let's not mention Alfred Lagarde who is a moron of the worst kind.)
Anyway, they had recorded four accoustic songs in Holland but only two
were played: The Silent Man and one of the cover songs,
namely Tears from Rush. The other two songs will be played in future
Countdown Cafe shows.
The best news was that there was going to be an extra show in Holland:
March 11 in De Vereniging, Nijmegen. Tickets will be sold from Feb 25.
(The Madrid show on this date has been cancelled.)

80's Crimson? I can see it now, it could tie in to the plot (I haven't
seen enough B&B to know if they ever do that). They see "Frame by Frame"
from _Discipline_, and then "Take the Time," and become Absolute Geniuses,
cure both AIDS and deficit spending the same afternoon and so forth. But
they have no fun and are sad. Then they see a GWAR video and revert to
their charming selves.
Just to put more DT content in this "contribution," just imagine what
they'd say during "Surrounded." It's one of my favorites (all those happy
major chords), but during the soft parts, "heh heh, this wuss is crying"
"yeah, huh huh huh, because he was screaming before."

I got mine today...this is so cool...
Only listened to the tape once, since I'm also busy listening
to the Lie single and the Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome soundtrack,
both of which also came today (today really rules), but it's so good...
I just wish it were on CD, because i'm probably going to wear out the
tape pretty fast. Favorite songs so far are Shallow, Even the Waves,
and Sun Orange, Small. But the whole thing rules. I just wish there
were a few of those classic Kevin synth solos...oh well. His singing
sounds really good, as does just about everything else...

Hi!
Since I got one small complaint about the Watchtower sample, maybe I
should add this: you might have to juggle with your sound-program to make
this one sound decent. The sampling frequency is 22.3 kHz, not 8 or 11 as
most other .au-files, it's in y-law, if you get this right it shouldn't
sound all that crappy.
If you're interested check it out! The address is in the .sig!

Just on the thread of Candlemass...I think some of their stuff is really
good esp w/ the old singer Messiah. He rocks! And there's actually a
small connection to DT, at least for me! Both the DT shows I've been to
he's also been there moshing along with the rest of us, not like
some musicians that you'll se who just stand in the bar with their
arms crossed: "I can do that!"....He's a pretty big fan I suppose! (both
like big and BIG). For what I know he's worked with Memento Mori and
Stillborn recently but I think that Stillborn has broken up, I don't know
about Memento Mori, maybe they're about to record a new album?!?

Anyone watch VH-1 last night "women's night out" comedy hour. They had an

guitar player was also a blonde, but since I've never seen Rena, I

Is Marlene a bass player?

Ah! Another Kansas fan! I thought we were all but extinct! =)
Although I don't have any Kansas shows to trade, I wanted to ask whether
or not you had a tape of a show recorded at The Tower Theater either on
2/11/89 or 2/14/89. I was at both shows, and I know for a fact one of
them was recorded, and that a boot of this recording DOES exist. Please
drop me some email, and let me know either way.
Speaking of Kansas, is it just me, or does "6:00" sound like "Paradox?"
Oddly enough (though not suprisingly), this brings up a couple of my own
andecdotes about DT.
The second time I saw DT, I had an opportunity to chat with Mike (kinda
strange that I gravatate towards him, since I'm primarilly a guitarist)
again. Knowing he was a Kansas fan (from our interview, and listening to
I&W), I asked him if he'd gotten "Live At The Whiskey." He said, "Yeah, I
just got it, and I'm gonna go listen to it." I told him that I didn't
think it was all that good, to which he replied, "Oh, man, don't tell me
that!"
Well, next time they rolled through town, I wrote Mike a note, knowing
that I'd probably see him, but, wouldn't have a chance to chat. So, I'm
milling around waiting for the show to start, and Mike walks past about
100 people, none of whom recognize him (this was one of the full
beard/moustache days). I yelled out "Mike!", he turned around, and I went
up and said hello, and handed him the note.
This was the show I told you about last digest where I met their manager
& other people, and did get backstage. Mike told me something along the
lines of, "You were right about the live Kansas CD. It has most of the
same songs on the other live album [Two For The Show], but it's not as
good." It was also at this show that my roommate and I snagged a huge I&W
poster, which Mike, James & John P. autographed for us. (Incidentally,
since he & I no longer live in the same apartment, I got the poster, in
exchange for him having dibs on our promo CD collection. Fair trade, I
think.)
One other little side note about DT's listening habits on that tour.
It's quite apparent to me that "Caught In A Web" is similar in structure
to a Galactic Cowboys song called "You Make Me Smile" and a few others.
Again, I think they were also listening to Rush ("Innocence Faded"), and
Ryche (various points throughout Awake).
This isn't a bad thing, mind you. Not at all.
And finally, this:
One night, while doing one of my radio shows, I get a phone call (which
is rare considering my day/time slot). It's DT's road manager, and I'm
supposed to do an interview with Kevin. I'm totally caught off guard, as
my roommate never told me that this was supposed to happen. Kev gets on
the phone, and I tell him I'm in the middle of part 2 of "Everything
Under The Sun" (from Extreme's "III Sides To Every Story" CD). His
response: "Oh, Cool!" So, I wait until "Am I Ever Gonna Change?" is over,
and we do the interview, live. Kev was joking around saying, "How could
you think to cut off Extreme to do this interview?!"
I don't know how I got through it. It was pretty horrible, but,
thankfully, I didn't tape it (though now, I'm kinda pissed about that
fact!). At interview's end, I said, "Is there any song you guys want me
to play?" The response came back:
"James said 'Play _Surrounded_,' but play that last Extreme song first."
(Anyone wanna guess again about why Surrounded isn't played anymore?)
So, I start the Extreme back up.
The punchline here is that I spaced which phone line I was on, and
accidentally LOCKED the On-Air Phone Transducer, and HUNG UP ON KEVIN.
Oops! Doh!
I apologize for the length of this post. I tend to be long-winded. =)

Random Bits:
> You could borrow or dub a copy from a friend and decide that way, of
>course. Sometimes though, that is not an option.
Just my own 2 cents about dubbing - not to be taken as a flame,
just my own personal opinion. Generally, I'm against dubbing/copying
albums. Why? Simply put, tape piracy is killing the music industry.
Sure, you think, "Say what? Those people make millions of dollars!" Not
totally true. Realize that there's millions of people who do the same
thing, and sell them, and then the reason CD's and Tapes cost so much
should become apparent. They're losing money.
Now, I'm not against bootlegging concerts, or doing what's being done
with Kevin's demo. But, generally, I try to avoid contributing to the
destruction of the industry I'm trying so desperately to be a part of,
whether it be as a recording engineer or a musician.
When you think about it, a _band_ usually gets a maximum of $1.50 (and
that's a very liberal record label - and more the exception than the
norm!) on each CD or tape sold, they're not getting much. Divide that
$1.50 between the 4 or 5 members of a band, and that's not a whole lot to
live on.
Not only that, but, when a label looks at its sales, and sees that
they're not selling all that many records at record stores, because for
every 1 CD sold, 10 people wind up with it, that cuts into their profits.
The bottom line for the record company IS the bottom line. If a band
doesn't make them money, they become a tax-write off.
Please, don't take this the wrong way, but, copying isn't really fair to
the artists you like so much. It may hurt them in the end.
Just a thought - no flaming is necessary. Thanks.
> My local music retailer can order me a video called "Dream Theater

Actually, it sounds like you've made the same mistake I did. This
video is nothing more than a different title for the "Live In Tokyo"
video.
There's two catalog titles. Why? I have NO idea.
"Dream Theater - Live In Tokyo"
"Dream Theater - Music In Progress Tour"
As far as I know, it's the same thing. If I'm wrong, someone tell me. =)

Hi! I shop on CDnow every once in a while too. I just bought a DT shirt
last night in fact...
> #1. Dream Out Loud (New York 1993) $27.97
Excellent. It's KTS boot and it has good sound quality, great packaging
and a very cool picture disc.
> #2. Home Sweet Home (Live NY '92) $27.97
> #3. Live In Long Island 1992 - II $27.97
These 2 are crap. I have #3, and it's not worth 5 bucks. The sound
quality is very poor, and the packaging is poorer.
I think Home Sweet Home is part 1 of Live in Long Island... The only
good thing about #3 is that the last 4 tracks are majesty demos, which
have better sound quality because they are from a studio tape not a
shitty live recording. Overall, not worth it...
I can't help you w/ the other 2 selections as I do not have them. Talk to
you later.

Duuuuuuudes,
I've heard lots about DT stuff on the internet. Things like DT interactive
(?), screensaver, short video clips?!!! Well, I'm pretty new to it all and
I was wondering if there were any *really* cool people out there that have
a list of places or could send me in the right direction. There's a
computer nut dude here (surprised?) that could help me if I get the
locations. I'm sure there are plenty more Jammers out there who would like
to know the same so maybe someone could post it in the Ytsejam (sorry to
take up so much space though). Otherwise, I'd be happy to pass along any
info I get to others in the same boat. Thanks for your time.
p.s. I know a while back we had a conversation about DT posters. I don't
remember if anyone mentioned about the pullout centerfold of John P. in (I
think) Guitar Player (from last spring). I got it framed...pretty cool.

Memento Mori is a band featuring Messiah Marcolin (Candlemass, etc.) and
Snowy Shaw (King Diamond/Mercyful Fate).
They've done two albums with Messiah: 'Rhymes of Lunacy' and 'Life,
Death & Other Morbid Tales'. Rhmyes.. is a power metal masterpiece
with heaviness & melody. LD&OMT has the above but adds more of the doom
element in the music. I recommend them both highly!

"Girls Night Out" was Meanstreak's regular gig for the last few months of
their existance. I don't know who's doing it now.

Tim-
It's been almost two months since I sent you my copy of the Denver DT
show, and we arranged a trade for your New Haven tape. What's going
on? If you didn't like the tape, you still owe me $7 for the tape
and postage (although I'd prefer your show) I think two months is
more than ample time, so I hope to hear from you in the next week at:
bertapel@ucsu.colorado.edu
Thanks, Adam

Are there ANY Tab books anywhere of one or both of these albums? I'm
especially interested in the tab for the Awake album right now. If they
are available overseas, please let me know. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks a bunch!

I think I saw the lyrics to ACOS here a while back....
I would appreciate it if someone that still has a copy could mail me the
text.
Also, on the Dance of Eternity boot (the two-disc version), that version
of Eve blew me away. Does anyone know what the samples are from (if
anything at all?) Or were they specially made for this song? (I doubt
this.)
Thanks to anyone who can help.
Chris (no, the other one.)

Awake tab was rumored to have been seen in Japan. Any Japanese ytsejammers
confirm this?
P.S. -- I ordered my I&W Tab today from a local music store, I can't wait!
