    <<...a poor bassist in a prog band wouldn't really make much difference...>>??

    Are you crazy?? No offence to you, but who do you think Geddy Lee is? He
    is definitely not expendable. He's an incredible bassist. John Myung is
    also an incredible bassist. He is somewhat a little less audible than the
    rest at some times, but at other times, he's at the forefront, and he's a
    damned good bassist. To me, DT is the prototype Prog Band, where every
    member is incredibly talented and shows it, in a very great manner. No one
    member is trying to show off...which may be the case for other bands that
    depend on their guitarist. They all work and write monstrous tunes
    together...and that's the key word...together. No one is more important
    than the other...and that's why DT is a "perfect" progressive band.

    Subject: poly-rhythms
    Message-ID: <950726225425_123857732@aol.com>

      This is to the guy who asked about poly-rhythms in the 902 Ytsejam.

    First of all, poly-rhythms are a term to describe when drummers play a part
    that
    had two or more rhythmic elements overlapping and played at the same time.
    A crude way to imagine this is to picture a drummer playing triplets on the
    ride
    cymbal with his right hand, and then playing 16th notes on the bass drums
    with
    both feet. It'd sound strange, and I've never atually heard such a pattern
    that I
    can think of, but it goes back to the idea of Limb Independence.

    Songs Neal Peart explores this idea with are Bravado(the outro), and Scars.
    That's
    all I can think of at the moment, but others may wish to contribute
    (PLEEZE!!!)

    Also, you mentioned that Neal Peart "invented" the Poly-Rhythm idea. This is
    actually
    an idea that originates in African styles of drumming. And although it's
    impossible to credit the first North American drummer to incorporate these
    ideas, generally
    Max Roach (a hard bop drummer) and Tony Williams (Miles Davis' drummer in the

    late 60's) were known for their ability to cleanly play difficult
    polyrhythmic
    passages.

    I know that HAIRBALL is going to read this a flip out, so I can rest assured
    that
    anything that is incorrect will be corrected.

    Hope this sort of helps

    Hey y'all! I just read from the usenet that WRCN 94.3/103.9 (I think
    it's a Long Island Radio Station) will be playing a DT world Premiere
    around 8:00 on Friday, July 18th (on your way to the Hampton Bays show).
    Someone PLEASE CHECK THIS OUT!! Who knows? It could be true and we'll
    have a studio version of ACoS a few months before it comes out!!

    Thanks! Talk to y'all later!

    I'm traveling to Milwaukee, Wisconsin in a couple of weeks and was wondering
    if anyone on the list knew of any stores in the area that stock "rare live
    import
    recordings", especially DT.

    Please respond by E-mail if you are as paranoid as the people on
    alt.music.bootlegs. They think that every query such as this is a covert
    investigation.

    Thanks.

    How about having everyone (who's interested) send their
    ages *to you*, and then you can post a summary to the list,
    rather than flooding the list with all these demographics?
    I know traffic is light, but I'm sure September will see
    things pick up.

    I saw the remaining copy (I got the other one last week) was
    still at the Compact Disc Warehouse in Sunnyvale.

    According to the circle of fifths, and the order of sharps and flats:
    If the alphabet continued as notes progressed (Using Major Key Sigs) (i.e.
    A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, etc.) eventually the key of Z Major would have
    4 sharps.

    Message-ID: <950728143440_125152575@aol.com>

    The experience that the person living in Austrailia described is a good
    moshing experience. While I still feel moshing is moronic, at least when the
    people moshing care about each others well-being it is slightly less moronic.
     But unforunatley any concerts I have gone to that involved moshing were
    violent. Moshing is violence. Music should NOT inspire violence. I am not
    by any means a pascifist, but music has and never will inspire anger and
    viilence within. I believe that anyone who feels the need to mosh in order
    to hurt someone(this is anyone that moshes, except those that are just doing
    it cause everyone else is and they feel like bouncing around at a concert) is
    an idiot. I don't care if I have offended anyone on the 'jam with that
    statement because I know that I am right and I really don't care what anyone
    has to say in defense. Moshing=Unnecessary Violence.

    Message-ID: <950728143115_125152621@aol.com>

    Was that a joke? MP does not play Polly-rythms, he plays polyrythms which
    were not invented by a guy named Polly. I can't remember the name of the guy
    who actually made them into a technique, but I believe he was an instructor
    and not in a band. A Polyrythm is like a two part rythm. In drumming it
    would be something like this: The snare drum would go
    1-2-3-1-2-3-1-2-3-1-2-3, etc.... and while that was happening the cymbal
    might be played 1-2-3-4-1-2-3-4-1-2-3-4, etc.... all in the same amount of
    time that the snare was doing the 1-2-3. A Polyrythm can be played on a band
    level as well with the drummer playing at a different rythm than the rest of
    the band. I believe that the beginning of the Mirror involves polyrythms.
     Also at the end of TTT, as the song is fading out you can hear MP change the
    feel of the music while the band keeps playing the same thing. This too I
    believe is polyrythmical. If someone who knows more about them than I do can
    back me up or correct me it would be appreciated.

      Hello to y'all (I'm a Kansan!). Anyway, special hellos to Mike Bahr (who
    posts the MOST interesting info to the 'ole JAM!). I'd just like to add
    my $.02 about the new title Mike put on his WHEN DREAM & JAMES UNITE
    project: "When Dream and Today Unite". Well, I like the title, but not
    after I had already gotten used to the old one. Mike, if this was the
    origional title, I would've LOVED it, but the old one seems to fit more.
    Still, who am I to argue with the heart and soul of the YTSEJAM!!!???
       One more thing, will you be putting YTSEJAM on it? No one's really
    ever mentioned doing that and I don't think you have either. Just curious.
    Of course, it would seem illogical NOT to put it on there, so I don't
    even know why or what I'm asking. I must be too tires (baby kept me up a
    while last night!).
