Again, as said before, is said to be the most progressive of

Knights of the Thunder was TNT's first album, and didn't really
impress me much...if you can, get either "Tell No Tales", which
has a couple great songs (10,000 Lovers (in one), Listen to your
Heart, etc.), definitely a TNT classic, or their newest one,
"Realized Fantasies", which is also very good......

hello again!
it rEally is getting silly w/ the big theateR Or "Theatre" debate. being sOrt
of a lousy typist Myself, i just sort of overlook it <As i'm sure maNy of you
do w/ my posts--kIdding!>. true, john petrucci doesn't like it, but since the
/r/ And the /e/ are right next to eachother on the keyboard and many jammers
are computer experts who fly across the keyboard at 100 mph, i think he'd
understand. i'm not criticizing anyone--it's all meant good-naturedly and
again the point is we all love dreem theotur.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
i knew no one would let sloppjoe69 go unpunished. it's commendable that you
were all restained and eloquent in your flames-a courtesy sloppy joe obviously
couldn't extend to us.

Wow, is this a tight knit group!
Sheesh, with all of the flaming this SloppyJoe69 created I hope he
at least went out and bought a pair of asbestos jammies to sleep in. :)
I wouldn't give two squirts of rat's urine to be in his shoes right now...
As for flaming people for what type of internet connection they have, I
think that it is wrong. Why judge the basket for just a few apples? People
have choices in what they want to be in. Just like the church complaining
about TV shows. Hey, this is America, if you don't like what is on, one knob
changes the station and the other know turns the damn thing off! Well,
Sloppyjoe69, you know what my next line would be...
It's alright for everyone not to like everything the same. Some people don't
like the new Kevin Moore demos. Some do. It's OK not to like them and it is
OK TO like them. I don't think anyone puts together a piece of work and says
to themselves *Everyone is going to like this* We wouldn't want DT to change
their style just to appease the masses, now would we?
So, Sloppyjoe69, if you are not enjoying the topics, please bring a new one
up that YOU would like to talk about. (and I'm not talking about flames either.)
I'm sure that there are a lot of openminded people here on this list that
would talk about anything. I happen to like YJ for the link it has to other
prog bands. Some of which I wouldn't have thought to try.
I think I'll rotate a new sig into this one.
Later!

>>God forbid having Dream Theater as an opening band!!! That would
>>really suck. especially for VH.
I'm not sure how serious this thread is but Collective Soul is opening
for VH (heard the ad on the radio yesterday). I kind of doubt Dream
Theater would open for anybody, particularly a "standard" pop-rock band
like VH. On the other hand, if they did, then maybe then they wouldn't
cancel out on their Albuquerque show (like they did last November).
I'm still kinda pissed about that...
Regarding all the recent flamage and pseudo-flamage messages lately: I
know a bunch of people are going to start screaming "Hey, it's an open
forum and I can post whatever I want." But when you feel obligated to
send a message correcting someone on the spelling of "Theater," keep in
mind that at least a half dozen other people will too. And if you
still feel that you need to respond to that or something like the
SloppyJoe post (which everyone should have just recognized as a troll
and ignored; instead he got exactly what he wanted out of it) then
please spare the mailing list and use private e-mail. I can understand
newcomers posting replies to the newsgroup but many of the messages
were from people who have been on the net long enough to know better.
Sorry if I've offended anybody, that wasn't my intent. And no, if you
read what I really wrote, I'm *NOT* advocating censorship of the
mailing list. But I don't think it's too much to ask for people to
have a little consideration for their fellow ytsejammers instead of
continually posting this sort of thing. As annoying as the trolls are,
the replies are even worse (and yes, I understand that if I don't like
them, don't read them -- but I still have to weed them out in my
mailbox). Let's try to keep the ytsejam on constructive, intelligent
discussion of Dream Theater and related topics -- not a lot of useless
flamage where nobody benefits.
And in the spirit of what I've said, if you have comments on this for
me, then please direct them to *ME* and not the newsgroup -- chances
are the majority of people on the list won't care to read them.
See ya,
Jon

Sorry to propose the fact that I am not intellectually capable of continuing with this mailing list. Of course, after failing the human litmus test, I have become rather inept towards my choice of musical infatuation. Apologizing for this adherancy upon my own personal character, I must resign from said list.

If you like Right Now, you should really check out a song on their new album called Not Enough. It's a very good song and I think the piano part in it is WAY better than Right Now. (I think it's because it doesn't remind me of those damn commercials.)

>I am extremely new to this list and am curious about some things. >First of all, is AWAKE a good CD?
It is quickly becoming my favorite CD. I love every song on it. It's worth buying just to get the three art A mind beside itself series.
>Next, has anyone seen Dream Theater live? If so, were they worth >the money to see them? Finally, does Dream Theater have a long form >video out?
I've never seen them live, and I'm still kicking myself for having to work through my first chance at seeing them. Hopefully, they will be back to my are for the second leg of their US tour. Also, Live in Tokyo is, I believe, the only video they have out right now. It also has another name. Dream Theater: Music meant to be heard. It costs about $16 in stores and I doubt (really) if you'll find it to be rented anywhere. It's a very good video containing footage of the bands performances, interviews with the band, the famous Dream Theater condoms (I love that part), and their music videos (from I&W).

Maybe it is because I'm a musician, but I have never been that impressed in my whole life !

I know, it sux, don't it? I can never hear Myung's bass parts. Since my band doesn't have a keyboardist (and as far as my guitarist is concerned, never will), I'm making an attempt to transcribe Kev's keys for bass. I wish I had a 6-string, it would make things a lot easier. I have Surrounded figured out, and we're gonna start working on it as a cover sometime soon. I hope it works. I even follow JP's solos through this song, too. I think it sounds pretty good, playing on the G-string, it give it that nice, plunky sound of a piano (sort- of) playing on a lower octave. (Then you move to a lower string and it totally whumps out of your speaker, that sux. It must be my active pick-ups)... ChucK

No kidding, I've found that alot of people who make the guitar tablatures found on the net also do this. It carries over on my printer and maked a discusting mess of garbage. I find myself spending hours editing the things so that I can print them and read them.

Jesus, I feel sorry for Kevin. These lyrics show how this thing really tore him up. He was so happy when he wrote Surrounded, it sounded like something that JP would have written for Rena. And now SDV is a complete contradiction of Surrounded. Everytime I hear this song I always get a really heavy feeling in my chest, a really sad feeling. It's also the reason I listen to this song over and over again. Surrounded, every time I listen to that now, I think of SDV and it gets Surrounded depressing as well (Then I start singing Michelle's parody lyrics over it and my whole day brightens, everyone got a kick out of that).

That's what makes this mailing list original. What fun would it be if noone expressed their own opinions on this thing. It would just be like an email nerd festival otherwise, just a bunch of people stating facts about record sales, tour dates, and the average weight and number of times daily that Portnoy takes a shit. (No offense, it's just an analogy) I like receiving info on the band, but it runs dry all too often, (the FAQ tells it all), and so peoples insight on things is really something to use to start a discussion. BTW, I was wondering what (on the terms of the favorite CD's thing) is everybody's dream band. I know it's not Dream Theater.
Mine consists of:
Geoff Tate -- vocals Marty Friedman and John Petrucci -- guitars Kevin Moore (w/Roger Waters backup) -- Keyboards Steve Harris (too bad Cliff's dead) -- Bass Mike Portnoy -- Percussion Let's hear info! ChucK

Hiya folks, more news 'n views from the UK,
I dunno, you don't post for two weeks and you get 600 unread mail messages. What a nightmare...
Good to hear about the I&W tab book. I'll keep an eye out for it here in Europe and see what gives.
A Ytse-con would be really great. I can't see one happening in England coz there's just not enough of us here to warrant a party, and those partys where only three people turn up really suck in my opinion :) If it was during the summer, I'd definately try and make it. After all, I owe my bank 700 pounds as it is, so what's another 300 pounds for the plane ticket :)
Albums I like all the songs on?...
The Wonderstuff: Constuction for the Modern Idiot The Sisters of Mercy: Floodland The Levellers: Levelling the Land Pearl Jam: Ten All About Eve: All About Eve, Scarlet and Other Stories The Mission: Carved in Sand Steve Vai: Passion & Warfare Tori Amos: Little Earthquakes Black Crowes: $hake your Money Maker Yes: The Yes Album Queensryche: Rage for Order, Mindcrime Ozrics Tentacles: Jurasic Shift Kings X: Gretchen Goes to Nebraska
There's probably more, but that'll do for now.
Now don't get excited everyone, but I have a little footage of the Zepplin medley they did at the covers concert. Unfortunatley, it's a mono video tape recording and I haven't got the time or resources to make copies until at least May, probably June, due to finals. It's recorded from Noisy Mothers (UKs ONLY rock show, geesh...) a couple of weeks back, so someone could well have a better stereo copy. I've also got a chrome, stereo copy of the DT Session on the Bruce Dickenson show a couple of weeks back, and a stereo video of the HBB stuff. I'd say that none of it is really worth having though. All the coverage here has been really disapointing.
Oh, if anyone in the UK's interested, Steve Hackett is playing Birminghams Ronnie Scotts at the end of May and Steve Howe's playing there the following month. Needless to say, I'm going to both of 'em! :)
Later,
Matt

I only saw them do one - "Train Of Consequences." That song isn't long at all. It's maybe 4:30 - 5:00. You're saying that DT could play an 8:31 song? I think not.
Not on U.S. Network TV, anyway. Totally unheard of.
You know who's got balls? Jon Stewart. He's had King's X & Slayer on his show. That killed me - Slayer on network TV. hehe...
As for King's X, they played incredibly well, and sounded great. They did "Dogman" and "Manic Depression" as the credits rolled.
Still, all in all, the best TV band sound award IMHO goes to whoever ran it for Arsenio Hall. Good god...anyone who's got the ability to make any band sound that good coming out of a tiny TV speaker has my vote.
SNL generally sucks in this department. =)

I dunno. Probably just called them and inquired there, but, I'll ask. Try calling them and politely asking to whom you need to speak to about an internship.

In-Reply-To: <EjGtyQG00YUz0IBvJS@andrew.cmu.edu> Hi everyone,
Please don't flame me if you're reading this for the second time, my mail software died on me. Anyway, just to let all you UK jammers know that I'm back from my trek to the wilds of Scotland and ready and raring to go with my branch of the dubbing tree. Many thanks to all those who have already asked for copies. I've e-mailed you separately.
This is also the last call for anyone interested in meeting up prior to the Forum gig on 15th March in London. If you want to join us be outside the big HMV store in Oxford Street at 3PM (that's the HMV between Tottenham Court Road and Oxford Circus NOT the one near Bond Street). If you can't make 3PM but want to catch us later let me know and I'll try and sort something out. I'd love to meet you all. There is a serious lack of good taste around these parts so it'll be nice to meet people with similar musical tastes for a change.
Attention all you Queensryche fans, you may already know this but, the band will be doing a signing session and a short acoustic show at the Virgin Store, Marble Arch on 10th March at 12:30. I'm gonna be there getting my original 206 label Queensryche EP signed. If anyone else is thinking of turning up let me know.
On a different note. Anyone into Marillion or the more 'classically' styled prog groups should try to get hold of the CD Songs From The Lion's Cage by Arena, the new band put together by Mick Pointer (ex Marillion drummer) and Clive Nolan (ex Pendragon keys). I've had the CD for a couple of weeks now and it's a real grower. I must admit to being a bit sceptical at first (it does sound an awful lot like an amalgam of Marillion, Pendragon, Pallas and IQ with a hint of Asia) but I'm really getting into it now. The singer sounds so much like Fish at times it's uncanny. Check out Midas Vision, you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference. There's also a nice solo on one of the songs from a certain Mr Rothery. On the whole a very worthwhile purchase (IMHO).
Well, that about wraps it up for me. Catcha later,
Mark.

Yes, it's another East Coast dub site for the Kevin Moore demos. Is it any wonder James called Baltimore Dream Theater's second home?
Anyway, if you'd like a copy just email me and I'll send you the details.

I have to disagree. I like almost every song (Nora just doesn't do anything for me), and I don't think they lack conviction or passion at all... in fact quite the opposite, I find them very emotional. Timeless? Hard to tell at this point, but I find Blanket, Even the Waves, and Sun Orange repeating in my head over and over...I really love those songs... Overall, i think the demos are musically and lyrically very good. I wish there were more of those wild KM synth solos, but I guess he's not all that into that these days.

Good call. My picks would be different however...
Charlie Dominici (just kiddin! Geoff Tate all the way) -- vocals John Petrucci & Eddie Van Halen -- rhythm & lead guitar Kevin Moore - keyboards Geddy Lee - bass (YES! Cliff Burton was the ultimate.) Mark Zonder - Percussion
