           If you love DT but Hate QR you're missing the point???

           What the **** is that!!?!?????

           I think QR's Promised Land blew dog...The group is
    talented...I've liked some of their stuff....but I HAVE to love
    QR and DT to be getting the point of progressive music..?????

           Buster, Dave, or whatever the useless phrase they call you...

           Listen to me and listen good.....DONT make blanket statements
    like that!

           People are proud of the music they like and proud of the music
    they dislike, and you can not tell them they are missing the point!

           What is a real kick in the ***, is that you are probably a
    sophmore or so in high school, and you are trying to explain 'what it's
    all about' to people you don't know about.

           Most likely, I've been listening to music for several years
    longer than you, and I think I know what its about...I dont need your
    pomposity to shine through and try to explain your **** stinking
    reason...

    Well I guess this is my turn to interject. I'm new to this list, but a
    fan of DT since WDaDU.

    Um, dude, Damon I guess your name is... What does this have to do with
    DT? If I recall correctly, this is a DT mailing list, not a Damon mailing
    list. Have I subscribed to the wrong thing? If you can play all these
    songs and stuff, cool. I've been playing for 17 years and I have trouble
    playing some of John's albeit "easier" sounding stuff. But I came on this
    list to hear about DT. There is no difference between F sharp and F#,
    being as good as you are you should know that.

    Anyway, I'll shut up now. BTW, I don't know if anyone has put this in
    yet, but three titles for the new album are:

    1 - Where Are You Now
    2 - Take Away My Pain
    3 - Raise The Knife

    Some working titles for the new album are:

    1 - Carnival of Clams
    2 - Cat's Tail
    3 - AnnaLee
    4 - "Completely Untitled" (ok, I made this one up, but they have a song,
        it just doesn't have a title).

    Look for the release in early fall..

    Later!

    That sounds like a good idea. anyone know of any reason why it wouldn't work? I'm not really clear on
    this (I have/had both Illusions but I bought them a year or so after they were released); if they
    released 2 CDs, a la GNR Illusions, are the 2 CD's released at the same time? That would be ideal... we
    can get the equivalent of a double-cd but other people aren't forced to.

    Hi

    I know this is probably a dead issue by now, but I just finished catching up on the last 20 Jams. here's what I have to say (if you don't care, then skip down to the next episode of Ytse and the Jam):

    Morten, you are, like, such an asshole.

    Geez, man. take a chillpill. I was talking to Daomn last night, and i couldn't understand why he was so upset over a stupid post. i thought he might have just been over-reacting, but then I actually read what you wrote, and i couldn't believe you could be so mean. I don't play keyboards, but Ieven I could see that what you were saying about LtL didn't make any sense whatsoever. I mean, F# and F sharp? WTF?

    Instead of congratulating Damon for writing a post with actual Dream Theater content, you flamed the shit out of him for no reason. What did he do to you? It didn't sound to me like he was trying to be arrogant or anything when he wrote that.

    And Mike: You know I love you, but I think what you said to Damon was way out of line. In my opinion he had every right to be mad. If someone had posted something like that about me, I probably would have filled up three jams venting my wrath. Would you have hit me too?

    Well, I didn't mean to take up so much space with this. Sorry, guys. If anyone wants to flame me, take your best shot. Morten? Go ahead...make my day :)

    Hi fellow 'netters,

    My name is Sally Ann Ellison and I recently started using a magazine subscription club in the USA that has a FREE 1 yr. magazine subscription deal with your first paid order- and I have been very pleased with them. They have over 1,500 different USA titles that they can ship to any country on a subscription basis. As for computer magazines from the USA, they more of a selection than I ever knew even existed. They have magazines for most every area of interest in their list of 1,500 titles.

    Within the USA, for their USA members, they are cheaper than all their competitors and even the publishers themselves. This is their price guarantee.

    Overseas, on the average, they are generally around one-fourth to one-half of what the newsstands overseas charge locally for USA magazines. On some titles they are as little as one-tenth of what the newsstands charge. They feel that mgazines should not be a luxury overseas. In the USA, people buy magazines and then toss them after reading them for just a few minutes or hours. They are so cheap in the USA! Well, this company would like to make it the same way for their overseas members. They are also cheaper than all their competitors in the USA and overseas, including the publishers themselves! This is their price guarantee. Around one-half their business comes from overseas, so they are very patient with new members who only speak limited English as a 2nd language.

    Their prices are so cheap because they deal direct with each publisher and cut-out all the middlemen.

    They will send you their DELUXE EMAIL CATALOGUE (around 525K-big and juicey) !)...if you completely fill out the form above. It has lists of all the freebies, lists of all the titles they sell, titles broken down by categories and detailed descriptions on nearly 1,200 of the titles that they sell.

    Please do not email me as I am just a happy customer and a *busy* student. I don't have time to even complete my thesis in time, let alone run my part-time software business! Please fill out the above form and carefully follow the intructions above to get it to them via fax or smail.

    They guarantee to beat all their competitors' prices. Sometimes they are less than half of the next best deal I have been able to find and other times, just a little cheaper - but I have never found a lower rate yet. They assured me that if I ever do, they will beat it.

    They have been very helpful and helped me with all my address changes as I haved moved from one country to another.

    They have a deal where you can get a free 1 yr. sub to a new magazine from a special list of over 295 popular titles published in the USA. They will give you this free 1 yr. sub when you place your first paid order with them to a renewal or new subscription to any of the over 1,500 different popular USA titles they sell.

    They can arrange delivery to virtually any country and I think they have clients in around 45 or 46 countries now. Outside the USA there is a charge for FPH (foreign postage and handling) (on both paid and freebie subs) that varies from magazine to magazine. I have found their staff to be very friendly and courteous. They even helped me with an address change when I moved from one country to another. The owner thinks of his service as a "club" and his clients as "members" (even though there is no extra fee to become a member - your first purchase automatically makes you a member) and he is real picky about who he accepts as a new member. When he sets you up as a new member, he himself calls you personally on the phone to explain how he works his deal, or sometimes he has one of his assistants call. He is kind of quirky sometimes - he insists on setting up new members by phone so he can say hi to everyone (I sure wouldn't want to have his phone bills!), but you can place future orders (after your first order) via E-mail.

    He has some really friendly young ladies working for him, who seem to know just as much as he does about this magazine stuff. If you live overseas, he will even call you there, as long as you are interested, but I think he still makes all his overseas calls on the weekends, I guess cause the long distance rates are cheaper then.

    He only likes to take new members from referrals from satisfied existing members and he does virtually no advertising. When I got set-up, they had a 2-3 week waiting list for new members to be called back so that they could join up. (Once you are an existing member, they help you immediately when you call. ) I think they are able to get back to prospective new members the same day or within a few days now, as they have increased their staff. I am not sure about this.........but if you email the above form to them, that is the way to get started!

    They will send you their DELUXE EMAIL CATALOGUE (around 525K-big and juicey) !)...if you completely fill out the form above. It has lists of all the freebies, lists of all the titles they sell, titles broken down by categories and detailed descriptions on nearly 1,200 of the titles that they sell.

    They then send you email that outlines how his club works and the list of free choices that you can choose from, as well as the entire list of what he sells; and then they will give you a quick (3-5 minute) friendly, no-pressure no-obligation call to explain everything to you personally and answer all your questions.

    Once you get in, you'll love them. I do.

    Sincerely,

    Hey all!! I know I'm the 50 000 000 000th guy to respond to the jerk from Norway who weakly flamed Damon, but I wanted to add my 2 cents (I guess that comes to about a little over a penny in Canada). If this guy professed to be such an amazing keyboardist, then why didn't he replace Kevin in DT when he left rather than Derek. Mr. High-and-Mighty is so great but where is his top selling album? Where is his stadium-packing tour? May Thor smite your ignorant ass you bastard!
