    Hey Peoples,
        I got Carpe Diem Saturday. YOU GOTTA GET IT!!!!! This is by far
    and away the most professional looking and sounding CD I have ever
    heard. The sound is very clean. There is only minimal phase
    distortion during UAGM, the 1st song, after that it's damn near
    perfect. Keep in mind this is an audience DAT source. If it weren't
    for the occasional fan screaming or talking close to the mic you'd
    think it was soundboard source as the frequency and dynamic range are
    quite wide. The performance sounds better than the BH tapes-the crowd
    is quite into this one as well. This version of ACOS is my favorite.
    They play this perfectly but I miss the phrase 'Gather Ye rosebuds
    while ye may' so I sing it for them :>. The photos are first class
    and are scanable-I now have new wallpaper for Windows. GET THIS CD
    IT'S GREAT!!! Marcel busted his butt to get this out with this kind
    of quality. I believe Mike Bahr ordered a copy-did you get it? It
    will be interesting to hear his review. This one gets all appendages
    besides thumbs up. Buy it people.
       On the scratched CD thing. I have had good luck using a q-tip and
    auto body buffing compound. This should be done only when the only
    alternative is replacing it. A small amount on the q-tip rubbed along
    with the scratch. You are only trying to dull the edge of the scratch
    as this is what's causing the reflected beam to split. Round this off
    and its own correction scheme can take over. Keep the buffing
    compound area confined to the scratch. Remove carefully with water as
    it is water soluble. I have a commercial cleaner but it only works
    with fingerprints or chocolate or such stuff not scratches. I have
    been lucky twice using this method. Good Luck

    Later,
    Wilmo

    Devil's Dance is not on 'Load'. Instead they are going to put it on their
    next album which is expected to be released in about a year.

    hello people-

    i've been lurking here for awhile, but i've also been out buying some of
    the CDs for bands i've seen mentioned on the jam. here's what i've got
    and what i think of them:

    Shadow Gallery [Carved in Stone] - most of you know of them by now.
    Influenced by DT, Queensryche, and even old Genesis. vocals are very
    different. Recommended

    Enchant [Blueprint of the World] - VERY influenced by Rush and Marillion.
    any given song is good, but they all sound too similar with very little
    dynamics. very long and flat.

    Ivanhoe [Symbols of Time] - ok, so they're a DT clone, but it's great
    stuff anyway. definately recommended

    Threshold [Psychadelicatessan] - eh. very 80's metal sounding. something
    here reminds me of WASP.

    Facade [Fade] - more of an independant release than the others, but good
    anyway. has some DT/QR influences, but with a commercial slant.
    recommended.

    World Trade [Euphoria] - pass on this one. great production all for
    naught.

    Yes Tribute [Tales from Yesterday] - even if you're not a huge fan of
    Yes, you'll still like this because of the reworkings of most of the
    songs. It's also a good Magna Carta sampler. Recommended

    that's all i can think of. thanks for indulging.

    AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I saw Kansas and Styx last night at Meriweather Post Pavillion in
    Columbia, MD. I had seen Kansas at the same place last year with Alan
    Parsons. The sound quality of the show was no that great last year. This
    year Kansas was top-notch. The sound was great. The band was right on.
    They played a couple of songs that they did not play last year. 1 song in
    fact that I had never heard before (I dont have all their albums so...)
    The crowd sat for the show but Kansas received a standing ovation. I
    thought the support they got was impressive. Their encore was Dust In the
    Wind and Carry On Wayward Son. My only gripe was that they did the same
    Fight Fire with Fire/Play the Game Tonight medley that they did last
    year. Wow! I was extremely impressed with Kansas. They were great.

    Styx then came on to screaming fans and also put on an excellent show.
    Styx was right on. They were having a great old time. All the guys were
    joking around throughout the whole show. They played all their hits
    except for Mr. Roboto. A great acoustic set in the middle. A really coold
    Paradise Theater stage and effects. Once again I was very impressed.

    I think Styx/Kansas are a great fit. I think fans of Styx are fans of
    Kansas. Unlike last year when the pavillion was empty for Kansas/Alan
    Parsons, last night's show was very crowded and I would gather close to a
    complete sellout.

    I know some idiots in the various newsgroups were saying how Styx sucks
    and are teeny bopper music. All I have to say to them is "GET REAL".

    This was an incredible show... I recommend everyone to go see it.

    I saw 1 DT Awake shirt. Were there any jammers at the show?

    Hey folks. Well, it seems that someone here at UVM decided to upgrade
    some machine or another this weekend, without telling anyone. So, not
    only could I not read incoming mail, it seems that anything that people
    sent to me after midnight Friday has been taken out back and shot. So,
    if anyone tried to send me mail about the Ytsecon over the weekend, hang
    on, and I'll see if I ever get that mail. If not, I'll just re-mail
    everyone, and tell you all to re-send that mail. In the meantime, if you
    have to send me mail, please send it to the following address:

    cmerlo@moose.uvm.edu

    I'll be using that address until the cs.uvm.edu machine decides to
    deliver my mail again. Happy jamming!

    Spelling? What is Dave attacking Andrew about? "Rhythm" is the proper spelling of the word rhythm. Don't tell me no one involved in this whole debate spotted this?

    Actually, if you were ABOUT to write a .sig, your grammar would be in the future tense, so you should have said "cause I might misspell something."

    A good analysis. Speaking of torture devices, after five days of serious assault on the wits of creator Cecilia Barajas and her team of tricksters, I finished Zork Nemesis. :> I highly recommend it to anyone who likes intellectual puzzle-type games. (I'd say, "puzzle-type games like Myst," but since everyone who played the original Infocom line regards Myst as Zork with graphics, that'd be kinda SILLY.)

    >>What do you get if you cross a crooked lawyer with a crooked >>politician? Chelsea Clinton

    Ya know Neil, you're really good at goofing on America, but at least the leaders of our country don't go around gathering up a group of people and exterminate them for absolutely no reason what so ever. When I went to Germany in 1978 I got a chance to visit Dachau. Even all these years later you walk on the grounds and look at the Gallow's poles and the ovens that the Nazis used to put the Jews in and kill them for absolutely no reason at all, and you can feel what happened there. So next time you feel the need to goof on one our leaders just think of what Hitler did and Bill Clinton is that bad of a guy. I'd rather have a president that cheats on his wife than some psychopath that has 6,000,000 people exterminated for some sick reason I can't even begin to understand.

    To the rest of the German people on the jam, I'm really sorry if I upset any of you. I'm mostly of German heritage (my Mom's Mom was born in Germany, and my dad was also part German), and I don't think it's fair to blame the whole German race for the actions of a madman and his followers from 50 years ago. But I'm getting real tired of this asshole ripping on America and I'd really like to see him stop.

    hey man, shut up, I can now ollie about an inch off the ground! :) You don't decide if someone's a poseur based on their skating ability. They're a poseur if they dress like skaters, talk like skaters, claim they can skate, can't, and don't try to learn.

    <GASP!> That is totally NDTC! Oh well, you know the drill, don't read the preceding paragraph. :)

    POSEUR! :) Well, no, if you still called yourself a skater, THEN you'd be... Oh never mind. Hmm, maybe one of the Boys skates? That would be cool, then you would all have to apologize for all the flames this message is gonna get. :)

    > > Where's the beef???

    I hope you like it well done. :)

    Yes! An EOJ about skateboarding. That was cool. huh, huh.

    On another note, yes I know this is a reply to an old jam. So sue me. I now have about 35 in my inbox; I just picked one at random to read and reply to.

    Which brings me to my next (and only?) point: This goes out to everyone I know (Rip, Charone, Augie, D-Man, Skadz, Bafu, et al.) to let you all know that I won't be back on the computer for 2-6 weeks... Till summer in 2 weeks or maybe I can't use it because of summer school, another 4. Anyway, just to let you know. Goodbye for now, my friends. :) How did that bring me to my next point, you ask? Don't.

    Later, -That DMC Guy-
