Ahem. Fred. Let's not forget to mention that it was me who told you about
ACOS, and about the list. Yes, you got me into DT, but I think I returned the
favor somewhat by telling you about Ytsejam and about ACOS. by the way, after
this weekend, I will have some stuff to play for you. SOmebody sent me some
DT stuff on tape that I KNOW you don't have. Later all.

Is Fear Factory opening for Ozzy? If so, get there early -- FF rUlEz.
On the DT tip, this is my first post to ytsejam... i've been into DT for
a little while, but of course now i'm so into them that i'm fucked...
spending $$$ on boots (i just got DoE or TDoE--the 2 CD one whatever that
is, and Lords of Sound)... not a very exciting message i know, but at
least i'm not a virgin anymore.... later all.

DREAM THEATER: "ACOUSTIC DREAMS"
Information and Update
Current to 10/5/1995
NOTE: INTERNET EMAIL ADDRESS CHANGE: I am now durnik@indirect.com
Hi all! This is the latest information on Acoustic Dreams, the new
LIMITED EDITION Dream Theater CD I will be producing. It will be a numbered,
hand-initialed limited print just like Subconscious was.
QUICK UPDATE: The CDs are IN and SHIPPING! They look GREAT and I hope you
will all thoroughly enjoy them.
============================================================================
DISCLAIMER: Acoustic Dreams falls into a grey area of law as an uncopyrighted
recording produced in such a manner that at least one facet of the production
occurs in a country (namely Italy) in which it is legal to do so. In the USA,
it is permissible to sell used import CDs only if they are labeled as such.
This is such a CD. Be aware that the various powers-that-be are collecting
nothing for this.
============================================================================
Of course, that's all cover-my-butt lawyerspeak. I hope you all will
want to be a part of this. I make roughly minimum wage doing it, so you know
I'm not out to scam you. In all humility, I appeal to anyone who might not
think too kindly of my endeavor, and ask that they might give me the benefit
of the doubt on this one. Friends? :)
1. What is Acoustic Dreams?
2. What is the release schedule?
3. How can I get my own copy of Acoustic Dreams?
4. Orders received.
============================================================================
1. What is Acoustic Dreams?
Hi all! Allow me to introduce myself, if you aren't familiar with me
yet. I'm Mike Bahr, humble maker of special-edition CDs. I noticed a lot of
the mass-manufactured bootleg offerings were spiralling quite high in price
and yet offered little for the die-hard fan, and I concocted a scheme by
which I could make around minimum wage by producing CDs on my own, CDs that
would fill the demand for REAL rarities and special songs, unreleased items,
live shows, and the like.
Basically, since no CD plant will print them for me, I have to rent
studio and equipment time and do it myself. So far, it's working. :)
Fortunately, and for this I am very relieved, my Subconscious CD
has been incredibly well-received by the net community, especially the
Ytsejam mailing list. I just do what I can do and leave the rest up to God,
and I guess the Almighty isn't disappointing you folks. People from all walks
of life, all countries of the world, both sexes, all races, and all religions
have joined in on the Subconscious and Cygnus projects, and I am very happy
to have you all along for the ride. I'll keep making CDs as long as you folks
are willing to keep buying them. Thanks so _very_ much... :)
And now, I have Acoustic Dreams on tap.
Well, this is the current CD I'm doing, also known as Dream Theater
Unplugged. We were given a VERY high-quality soundboard tape of DT's recent
Unplugged performance in Europe, and it can only be fully expressed in the
form of a CD. Trust me. :) I am fervently hoping that the finished product
is well-liked.
Acoustic Dreams
1. Another Day
2. Lifting Shadows off a Dream
3. Wait For Sleep
4. The Silent Man
5. Lie (boogie version)
6. Tears (Rush cover)
7. O Holy Night
Electric Extras
8. Perfect Strangers (with Bruce Dickinson on vocals)
9. 6:00 (performed in session with a much better mix)
10. Caught In A Web (another better performance)
Bonus Tracks (acoustic)
11. Voices (just a small part of it was all there was) acoustic
12. Bad (U2 cover) acoustic
I hope that once you've heard it, you will, like me, have your
breath taken away by the beauty of the acoustic tracks and the clarity and
sharpness of the electric mixes.
2. What is the release schedule?
Here is the current schedule of releases as I see it (all dates estimated):

04/--/1996 - Live or Type O-Negative: To be announced
05/--/1996 - Dream Theater: To be announced
Here are a few descriptions to keep your curiosity satiated :)
Dream Theater "Subconscious"
Released 04/03/1995 - Limited Edition - 500 copies - sold out
Contained Dream Theater rarities including A Change of Seasons.
All copies were hand initialed/numbered in gold for authenticity.
Rush "Cygnus"
Released 08/14/1995 - Limited Edition - 1000 copies - still available
Contains a rare soundboard show from the Hemispheres tour.
Dream Theater "Acoustic Dreams"
Released 09/30/1995 - Limited Edition of 500 copies - still available
Each copy is hand signed/numbered in silver for authenticity.
Contains beautiful unplugged performances.
Dream Theater "When Dream and Today Unite"
To be released 12/25/1995 - Limited print of either 500 or 1000.
Contains the songs from Dream and Day only with James LaBrie on
vocals. Collected from MANY sources and optimized for quality.
Some of these still need quality boosts. (Light Fuse, STS...)
Dream Theater "Antiquities"
Details TBA - Limited print of either 500 or 1000.
Each copy will be hand signed/numbered for authenticity.
Will contain vocalist auditions, demos, errata, outtakes, unfinished
works, unreleased tracks, and the like.
Public Affection "The Death of a Dictionary"
Details TBA - Unlimited print
Is actually +Live+'s little-known first album, released in 1989,
two years before their 1991 breakthrough Mental Jewelry. Demand for
this one is skyrocketing, and the Jam gets first shot at it.
The following are all "Work in Progress" releases...
Rush other titles I'm considering (for any of the given shows):
Land's Edge, Storm World, Lifeforce, Arena of the Ancients...
Rush "A Symptom of Life" - from 12/20/81 2nd gen soundboard
Contains a LOT of neat stuff. a LOT. But very long... 2 CD set?
Rush "Concordant Crossroads" - from 3/24/81 audience MASTER in stereo
This one has unbelievable good sound quality. It's a tossup whether
to take this or Symptom, since both are so good but so similar.
Rush "Sleight of Mind" - from a remastered 6/25/75 Toronto
This tour has been very underrepresented in available material, so
who knows, if S.H.'s cleanup efforts turn out good...
+Live+ "Disenchanting Discourse" - from a 10/25/94 audience MASTER in stereo
It might be released, it might not, depending on many things. If you
would like to see it released, please let me know and let as many
people know as you can. I tend to find ways to release things when
I find an overwhelming demand for them. :) I also have an audience
DAT from 8/8/95, which is pretty damn good. I may synthesize the two
shows to get all the "Rare" songs onto the CD. (Freaks, Supernatural,
Breakin' Up, Jewelry songs, etc.)
Type O-Negative "Deathgrip" - from a 5/30/94 audience MASTER in stereo
A great setlist and decent sound. Only my worries about how many
copies I can sell prevent this. I can't undertake anything less than
a potential sellout project or I risk going under. Again, if this is
a title you'd like to see, you can make it happen. All I need is a
lot of interest, and away we go! So far I've had a few positive
replies... much much more are needed though.
Dream Theater... oh who knows, there's so much good stuff.
Possible shows:
Osaka soundboard from late 1992
Hamburg soundboard from spring 1993
various excellent DATs recorded in Texas
3. How can I order a copy of Acoustic Dreams?
As stated before, I'm already shipping the CDs by and by. I ship
orders in the order I received your checks, so those of you who sent your
mail around 8/15 when ordering began, those will be the first CDs out the
door. I usually get a couple dozen a day into the mail.
Feel free to e-mail me to reserve a copy for you, so that your mail
will have a copy allocated to it already (and not be a victim of "no-more-
disc-syndrome"). I've still got more available.
The numbering, excepting special requests when possible, will fill
in the order I receive the mail orders. It's only fair after all. I'll
reserve a copy for someone over e-mail, but if thirty people get their
orders in before he or she does, it's not fair for me to still hold copy
#014 or whatever. You all get the idea... these decisions are just in the
effort to make it fair for all.
Please, I stress to all of you, don't miss this if you missed
Subconscious. It really does pain me to have to tell a fellow DT fan that
there simply aren't any more Sub discs to be had, especially because I would
be MORE than glad to sell one if I had it.
Blanks, materials, studio time, etc is cheaper per unit for a
production line of 1000 than for 500, which is why Cygnus was cheaper for the
Ytsejammers. Acoustic Dreams, alas, must remain $25. I was hoping to bring it
down to $21 or $20 but that wouldn't be cost effective. I think I may be able
to do that for the Public Affection CD, however.
Things are pretty simple from here. Send along a money order for
$25 bucks to my address, being sure to include a note with your name, the
address to ship to, your email address, and WHICH CD you're ordering (after
all, Cygnus is still in ordering) and HOW MANY you're ordering. As before,
international customers may use whatever means of payment is most convenient
for them, though I stress that sending cash is risky and should not be a
first option, but a backup plan. :) CHECKS: I don't really mind them, but in
the effort to be seen as a serious and responsible net merchant, I always
recommend the traceable-both-ways Money Order as a preferred form of payment.
So while checks are perfectly OK, they may or may not be the option you
choose to take.
The address and so on is me at:
Mike Bahr - Acoustic Dreams
3175 N. Price Rd. #1066
Chandler, AZ 85224
My home telephone number, available as a courtesy to you, is
1-602-777-0501. I am usually not home on weekends (band practice) so try
during the week, between 6pm and 11pm pacific time, for best results. Also,
please use discretion when handling this number, as it is, after all, my own
home phone, and I will be very confused if a stranger calls at 3:00 AM. :)
I trust you Jammers to be cool about it, as you always have in the past.
Also... watch your time zones! I had one fellow calling at 6:00 AM. Owch!
4. Orders received.
This is NOT "reservations"... it's paid-for orders. If you have a
reservation, it's still valid, trust me. :) These are just the numbers that
are filled. Also there are a handful of "saved numbers" in there.

I just wanted to relay one of my fondest Dream Theater Moments.
A company that I used to work for had to give a large Internet
demonstration to some local business people, and they decided to
use the Imax Theater for the show. Needless to say they wanted
a cool open to grab some attention, so they asked me to put something
together. So I put together a bunch of 1 sec. clips of various sites
and put them into an hardware mpeg, but the piece was still missing
something... sound. Here was my chance. Picture this, a forty foot
screen flashing cool images, and the Imax sound system blasting the

miss it (monsters bigger than you) :-).

OK. Hey Graham - bite me.
Short enough?
Oh, stop it! It was a joke! I'm kidding! Graham, I agree with you
100%. I much prefer reading short, concise posts than long-winded
drivel. And Mike's posts are an obvious exception. Which reminds me,
I'd like to vote for "Mercy Fuck" for the next CD. :)

please don't bother flaming me... This is a funny (cynical) parody...
Merely for a good laugh....... Enjoy... Jay
THE KILLING HAND (OJ)
I. The Stabbing
An Angel's kiss now fallen
Descending knife cuts the bride
Faded blood left on the walk
Honor the race card leave life to die
Remember not domestic abuse
Ignore blood on my socks
Who are the police?
Did they control my Killing Hand
that caused this mourning?
Bronco riding...
II. Bronco Ride
Lowered deep into his seat
Gun awaits to cleanse his sins
Senses weakening time is still
Spotted by that damn motorist
The wheels race on and
Sirens flash
Traveling all to find his home
He must give up and go to jail
But now, he will begin to
Manipulate
III. The Stray Sock
Extended some cash to Cochran's hand
Manifestation for the race card
Waiting amidst scientific proof card
No big thing, No worry, No rationale
He's a free man
Sipping his whiskey Nordberg sings
Yet another to add more bodies fallen
Juice from below
this one controls
the Killing Hand that caused this mourning
Should he thank Furman?

Man, I am so sorry. I guess we all forgot that this mailing list is
not the Ytsejam, but in fact is the GrahamBjam! D'oh! How stupid could we
be? How could us lowly souls presume to "bother" you with our trivial,
meaningless thoughs?
I for one am OUTRAGED! I demand restitution!! NO MORE POSTS LONGER
THAN 3 LINES!!! NO MORE SIGS!! To hell with thoughts, discussion, debate,
interests, individuality! Ban the long post!!!

Who cares what the song's about? ACoS has a meaning? Can you
describe it in less that 10 words? No? Then forget it! It's bothersome! I
WANT SENSELESS BABBLE!! (but please, nothing longer than my...;)
----------
Well, I hope you get the meaning... I love the long posts. I never
thought about 6:00 untill I read that review. Man was not made to think in
short strings on information. By saying, "Don't bother me with your long
posts", it's like saying, "You want me to READ Moby Dick? Are you
kidding?!? Get me the Reader's Digest version of the Cliff Notes please. I
may be able to get through that." :)
And before you throw all the "bandwith" crap at me, and "I pay per
MB of mail storage", and "My cats don't like me spending so much time
reading mail and ignoring them", I understand. Just keep in mind that some
of us don't. You can always do what others have done. If we, and a band
you like, are bothering you... just unsubscribe!
Oh well... back to the long posts... this could take a while!

Innocence caressing me
I never felt so young before
There was so much life in me
Still I longed to search for more...
Ignorance surrounding me
I've never felt so filled with fear
All my life's been drained from me
The end is drawing near...

Hi, folks!
Just a short message to let you know that "A Change of Seasons" (yes,
the song!) was played in the radio yesterday night - well, part of it.
They started with the passing train (at 18:35 or so) and played it to
the end.
Exciting, isn't it? ;)
Bye!

You know, I don't think I could live very well without Dream Theater music.
Don't worry, I'm not getting suicidal or anyhting, it's just that it's so
much more than just notes. It means more to me than any other music.

Sorry about length. As for your suggestion on writing, that's not really
my style, seeing as how I prefer to write quiet, non-controversial stuff,
but I'll do my best to be more "wit-like."
To Ytsejammer: (The, not all you guys)

>.. it leaves from my mouth" (i guess it could be more poetic, but f*ck it

Dost thou not see the irony of thy posting?

(Deja vu?) No, I believe it was a laserdisc box-set. The infamous Dream
Theater 24-hour jam session, covering every Floyd, Rush, and Maiden tune
ever written. Available as an instructional video. "Practicing With Dream
Theater. Volume I."

What happened is, I unwittingly called someone a "stinky pinky bottle'a
inky" in one of my now-infamous Bullshit Letters, and they took it the
wrong way. It turns out their parents were killed by a giant bottle of ink
that fell out of the sky. And the flames ensued.
To Mike Bahr:

Sounds somewhat volatile, equivalent perhaps to coming out with a "Best of
Los Angeles" cd with the title "Rodney King."
