    >We shall be hanging >out with my friends Pat and Joe from Boston at the Trinity Brewhouse. >this place has drinks and eats. Here are directions to this place from >the front of the Strand as told to me by an expert *grin*.

    Thanks, Jason, for putting *me* on the spot. At least now if somebody gets lost because of the poor directions, they'll blame you instead of me. :)

    Seriously, though...

    The place is "all ages" - it's just like a restaurant, except with *much* fresher beer. :) I go there before all the Strand shows I go to, and on a Thursday night, it shouldn't be too busy to accomadate however many of us actually show up.

    >If you can't find it, just rejoin the >masses near the Strand. We'll look for you there before we head over.

    Errr....this is specifically for Jason, I don't plan on waiting in front of the Strand until EVERYBODY shows up... :)

    This won't be a "formal" get-together; I'm not going to take names or make reservations or anything like that. If you want to show up for some eats and drinks before the show, this is your best bet. (For those of you on a budget, there's a McDonald's one block over from the Strand. :))

    "Rooster"

    And as a side note to those that have already seen the "fix" shows...

    What was the last song on the intro tape for these shows? If anybody remembers, please e-mail me. I'd like to know because it makes it easier to predict when the band's actually going to come out.

    Okay. I went to go get tix to the Birch Hill show since I live just an hour from there, and I find that it's an 18+ show!! I almost passed out. I'm only 16, and like every 16 year old, I had to go through the units first. They said that they wouldn't even let me try to get in, as if I'd be arrested if I didn't get in. I look like I'm 19, so I don't think I'd have a problem anyway. DT is my favorite band, and I'd give anything to see the show, but now I can't because I'm 16?! Is this true of all their shows? Or does it depend on the place the show is held?

    Hey all,

    I was wondering if any of you jammers that went to the DT "fix for 96" shows recorded them either on video or audio. If you know of someone who did, or you are someone who did, please e-mail me. I'm am very interested in purchasing a copy of the show.

    Sincerely,

    Hello Jammers,

    A year or so ago I used to post these posts all of the time, I believe the jam was less volumous, than it is now. <grin> Anyway...

    Porcupine Tree - Signify -------------- Porcupine Tree is a mix of King Crimson, Pink Floyd, ambient, and industrial musics. On the latest disk Signify, guitarist/vocalist Steve Wilson and company craft music influenced by the career of Pink Floyd with a bit of the Robert Fripp edged guitar at times. Lots of samples and echoes, acoustic guitar is finely placed within some of the pieces featuring vocals. My favorite songs on the album are Sever and Dark Matter. Sever features lyrics "Telepath Carbon trapped under stone, Brother mother pale body is thrown, Only way I know to have fun, fill up my blood, my veins, my lungs." The song is brisk with a harmonic refrain "No sense of time, Sever tommorrow, Exitless mind-ESP, Sever tommorrow." Anyone who likes the spacier early Pink Floyd (More, Meddle (echoes, one of these days), A Saucerful of Secrets, Dark Side of the Moon), and thinks that Robert Fripp has some pretty cool guitar ideas should check out Porcupine Tree. This band creates music that doesn't sound dated/retro, I'm just annoyed that I was in a room with all of the band members for 1/2 hour and I couldn't think of anything intelligent to say.

    Later,

    Mike

    See everyone at Birch Hill! Yeah, I'm finally going to be at an event with other Ytsejammers, its going to be scary! <grin>

    Bahahah.... Yeah, right. As I remember they cancelled their gig in Boise last time they toured. I reckon they won't be coming back either. And after the Slayer incident in Salt Lake City, they've started another banned band thing. I wouldn't be surprised of DT passes over our area completely.(everyone else does) I'm still keeping my fingers crossed, though...

    Hi!

    I'm still alive, can you imagine that? :)

    Just wanted to tell you that I'm really a little jealous of all you guys (& girls :) who saw and heard DT play their newest songs. I can't tell you how I wish that I could have been there with you and see what they do now... *Sigh* but I'm just too far away. :)

    As you all post so many reviews of the DT shows, I will now post a little review of a show I saw over here last Friday: Skyclad played here in Karlsruhe in a small club called Subway. I have to admit that ( at first ) I went there to talk to their tour manager because he invited us to come there and talk about touring with Superior. But then me and Martin ( our bass player ) stood there and listened to Skyclad and we were really surprised about what we saw. Ok, their music is not progressive IMO but their songs have something special. And that's not only because of the use of a violin(!). Their songs were really cool and the girl with that violin was just freaking out at some songs. :) Martin said that she would have been burned if she had lived a few centuries ago... :) So what I want to say here... if you have the chance to see them live... check them out! It's a cool band! What really surprised me too was their singer because he was talking clear German between all the songs! As far as I know Skyclad come from England (somebody correct me if I'm wrong).

    Ok, enough from me now...

    Ah! Stop! Just a little note for all of you who like the music of Superior... we will have new T-SHIRTS in a few weeks!!! I will take a picture of them and put it to our Website because nobody should buy something he hasn't seen... :) BTW, they will look coooooooooooool! :) I'll tell you all again when they're finished. Then you are free to order as many as you can take. Hehe :)

    Bye.

    Bernd.

    Try Eric Johnson (not prog ) the guy is a musical genius ,his latest album is called "Venus Isle" or try "Ah via Musicom" both cd's are pure ear candy.

    If you are new to the jam you need to check out Mike Bahr's cd's Speak up for more info. -- Gary Cleghorn Toon Army Rules

    Heh heh... Good ol' James & his wonderful timing!

    Dunno if there's anyone on this list who was at the Milton Keynes (UK) show back in '93. As James came on at the start of the gig to sing Metropolis, he tossed his hair back & entangled it in John Myung's machine heads... while the band played on, he put his mike down, untangled himself, took a bow at the front, then got his mike & carried on... that was fuckin' funny!
