Damn brilliant post. I myself prefer the "chomper" technique. The first part involves moving the pick to your mouth, biting down with your teeth (if you don't have teeth already, they're kind of expensive so you might want to stop reading now), and holding the pick there while you slap and tap. The second part involves moving your hand up to your mouth, grabbing the pick, releasing with the teeth, and contining to speed-pick whatever you were previously doing. This also works with guitar, which is where I originally started doing it. (BTW, it works in live situations, too!)
You may run into some problems with this technique if you play the bass with your teeth.

Please pardon my two spelling errors. I was in a vehement hurry. Shall I point out yours? Or have you been waiting for an error in my spelling for weeks now? Man, you think the guy's your buddy, then he pounces on your ass like a crackhead raping a bull.

No, I think whoever wrote that ment the guitar is a sample. And all of the guitar samples (BDBD, RIB), voice samples (Temptation, Resistance) etc are done by a guy backstage or something. Mike said so.

Mike Patton was one of the coolest looking people when he had long hair (along with Kevin Moore, I&W era, can't imagine what he looks like with his crew cut), and now he doesn't even look like himself.
>BTW...I don't have anything against shaved heads, just that after seeing >Billy Corgan w/ one (doesn't he look awful) I cringe at the thought of Satch >doing it... I remember reading somewhere that Vai ( Steve, not Bafu) was >considering doing it too...

Did anyone read that article, the one in the issue with David Gilmour on the cover? It talked about the over dramatic vocals of Jamie La Brie. sorry if this has been discussed. It came out before I was a jammer.

Hey 'jammers!
I just wanted to share something I just found out -
There is a book that apparently just came out, and I guess it's all about Mike Portnoy commenting on the snare sound on ACoS - it's called
"Portnoy's Complaint"
and it also has some weird stuff about giraffe masturbation while the giraffe wears his sister's panties on his head - cool, huh?
It's available at any library . . .
Your geezer bud,

I was just gonna say that. Page 56. Portnoy shaved his beard. I think he shoulda left it. I always thought he looked kinda stupid without it. He looks like a tough guy with his beard. (Please, no flames!)
>Even better- say " Well Jesus had long hair so fuck off!"
I do, and they say stuff like "Well Jesus was the messiah, so he can do whatever he wants. You're just someone living in the everyday world who's gonna be rejected for jobs and discriminated against for having long hair."

Whew! Good thing he didn't mention me! Really. If DT can make it, I don't know if I want to go to the con if Derek reads the jams. I'd be embarresed. (This is a time when I'm looking for some support saying "He knows it was just a joke", or "He doesn't read them", or "He wouldn't remember it was you", or something like that)

I am still collecting stuff for my web page. If you have sent me a picture, send me something you want printed next to it, unless you trust me that much. If you send me only a picture and your nickname, and i don't really know you, be prepared for a lame description. That's all you'll get. Anyway, those of you that have sent pictures, you are on the page. I still need bios from: Dman, Lugie, and Augie!!! I also need pics for: Augie, Damon, Andy, and Eliott Kim! Thanks, the response has been tremendous. P.S. the sooner you can give me the pics, and bios, the better!!!! ************************************************************************** * "You can deviate from the commonplace only to fall back in line." * * -Dream Theater * * "Orthodoxy means not thinking-not needing to think.
