Hey there DT friends (and hopefully JP):
Has anyone heard anything about John Petrucci and how he is handling the
loss of his Dad? I hope that he's doing OK...I know that I would be a wreck
if I lost one of my parents right now. If you are reading this John, I
sympathize a lot with your situation right now, and I hope it does not get
the best of you for too long. Your Dad (from what I have read in articles)
was a great person, and I'll bet he was very supportive of you. I just want
you to know that there are people out here who care about what you're going
through, and that we hope you're allright.

This tribute is being put together by Magna Carta Records which is very
well-financed and run and has done well with their artists such as Magellan,
Shadow Gallery, Cairo and the Genesis, Yes, Floyd etc. tributes. I know from
one of the owners that some rythym tracks were completed by Portnoy and Billy
Sheehan sometime in the early winter. I don't know all the artists that are
appearing but I'm sure the record company is very eager to get this thing out
so you can bank on this being out sometime in the near future...

It was only 372, thank you! No really. The reason that I post so much is
because it's easier to do it that way from AOHell than to include all the
things at once. Besides, I've asked people personally if I post too much, and
most said they like it that way, as opposed to Bafu-esque page long posts.
I've just got a lot on my mind. But I am not offended. Being on IRC lately
has kinda de-sensitised me. Thanx for listening to 373'd post ;-)

::::::::::::::ATTENTION ALL OPPOSERS OF THE SIG CONFLICT::::::::::::
After Processing The Data in the previous 4 ytsejams, I have come to
a conclusion. The Sig Wars must sadly come to an end. Before I continue
with this letter, I must make an important announcement:
IF YOU ARE ALL UPSET AND ARE SPENDING MORE TIME DURING THE DAY FRETTING
OVER THE ASCII PICTURES THAT APPEAR IN THIS UNMODERATED LIST (ALONG WITH
OTHER NON-DT RELATED MATERIAL) THAN EATING, SLEEPING, OR BREATHING, THEN
I PITY YOU. IF YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO MAKE YOUR VOICES HEARD BY FLAMING MY
OPPENENT, CAT, THEN **** ******* ***** ***** **

**** * ***** * **
You are hereby notified to leave her alone. Imagine, if you will, a
12.5 megabyte ZIP of an entire Green Day album on a .WAV file appearing
in your mailbox. Everyday. For the rest of your on-line life. That's
what will happen if you continue to flame my comrade in arms.:)
I, the The Masked Avenger, am not going to make any apologies for "The
Sig Wars" They were fun. They are over. I cannot see why you took it
to heart so. How hard is it to click the down arrow and scroll past a
sig?
In all my travels, I have not come across "alt.sig.pictures.for
wienies" or whatever it's called. All the picture I drew were from my
own imagination. (I know this to be true of my opponents, also) I mean,
come on! Where have you guys ever seen a dual super-fisted Marshmellow
Chicken or Mutant Mega-Cow? :)
Even though I was declared the "winner" by somebody (Thanks for your
support) I would never accept. There cannot be a winner, for the battle
was not properly fought. Altough, I do think that Ben's SIG was one of
the funniest things I've seen In a while. So, If there is to be a
winner, I say it should be him.
And, Finally, WHY DIDN'T SOMEBODY SAY SO?!?!?! These things went on
for a while! Why didn't somebody just scream "STOP!" (Like Skadz did!)
instead of complaining?
I guess that's all I have to say. Oh, one last thing: This "Universal
Destroyer" voice I'm always talking in is a big silly JOKE!!
Alrighty! No more SIG wars! :( I've got the message(es)! I've
recieved the personal email! Let's get back to something really
interesting that we can all participate in! Suggestions, anyone?

Rob asked if anyone had all the John Petrucci columns. WEll, Rob, look no
further. I have them ALL. E-mail me and we'll work something out.
Please, keep the sig. wars going. It adds humor and something to look at.
I came across DT at my friend's house. He was playing it in the background,
and all of the sudden I heard a real strange sound. Turned out that it was
the guitar and the keyboard synchronizing on a solo. I was blown away, but
couldn't stand the singer. It grew on me, and I have loved it ever since.
Later,

OK...as one of the world record holders for being shafted by the Dream
Theater Fan Club I have great news. I got a letter from DT's manager, Rob
Shore. He apologized for the fan club problems and said things will be
getting better immediately. He also sent me a check for the $ 16.00 I sent in
January 1995. That's good news!! I hope the same energy goes into promoting
the band etc.
Now for the bad news...there are a lot of ASSHOLES posting a ton of crap to
the jam. This is about DT. If you want to discuss anything else then go
somewhere else to do it. :) IMO
..note the 'IMO' disclaimer you potential flamers.
***Ben Lassydude is an asshole....just check his anagram.
***Petrucci said in a recent interview that they will be wearing matching
evening gowns on the next tour. Ben Lassydude will probably be trying to
look up Myung's dress.
***RE: the drinking game...have one for me....tonight I am doing some heroin,
crack, some everclear, a little model glue, some gasoline, Drano, and that's
just the ingredients for the enema I need to take later...I got the recipe

MARK METZGER is doing his part to help his fellow man by volunteering to be
examined by all of the 349 students in the protoctology department at the
university...
To those of you who don't like/get my humor...yep...you guessed it...you're
an asshole.
Buy Tim Lodge's CD's...I have em all and they are excellent.
Good luck on job hunting, Hairball...don't bother looking in Portland...this
market sucks.
Babs, will write soon, thanks for the note.

Please explain, I don't plan on seeing them in concert.

>of "underground"? I do.
I don't consider DT "underground". I usually connotate "underground"
with bands that haven't signed a major label contract, or bands that are
on small, independent labels. Thus, DT wouldn't qualify. I see your
point, however, and I like DT's status.
>I know tons of people who flock to Metallica concerts without a care to
>what the music is about, they just want to bang their heads around and
>hurt people.
I'll have to disagree with you here. At the Metallica shows I've been to,
the fans have been just as into it as the fans at the DT show I've been
to. Fans are more likely to be aggressive during "Whiplash" than say, "Wait
For Sleep", but that's because of the song itself, not the crowd. I'm
not going to say DT is better than Metallica, or vice versa, because I
like them about the same (Newsted and Myung are two of my favorite
bassists). However, different songs generate different reactions, and
ultimately different physical actions, i.e. "banging their heads around
and hurting people".
> "Yeah! I love Rush! Man, that new song! What is it, Tom Sawer?
Tom Sawer? Wow, the logical sequel to "Tom Sawyer" and "The Trees"!

Hey _Mr._ Swanson, I think the band could use a heavy tritone (flat V)

Hey, Uncle Ben, I feel like you should be going to. I've never seen Satch
live (although I had tickets once and got sick). After reading all the
buzz on the 'Jam, I'm going to go see him in Cleveland. I'll be wearing
a Blind Melon T-shirt and Green Day hat ;)
>We need a bassist with his/her own rig, transportation, and musical
>ideas...TV theme song preference are not important
What about the theme from "Mission: Impossible"?
>Its impressing to see Tony playing his guitar with no fret inlays
Do you mean that his fretboard has no "dots"? There can still be dot
markers on the top of the neck, for example, one of Jason Newsted's
basses has red LCD dots on the top (close to the low B) of the neck.
>A Damn Dyer, currently thinking of ways to sign his letters
How about Damn Ready?
>Speaking of Sting, has anyone heard his new album?
Yes, I bought it the day it came out. It's excellent, not too happy like
Ten Summoner's Tales, or not too dark like The Soul Cages. It strikes a
good balance, and has a diverse group of songs. Kenny Kirkland is now playing
keyboards, and there are guest appearances by the Memphis Horns, Branford
Marsalis, and a gospel choir. Those northumbrian pipes are back again, too.

I am just south of you in BG (amongst more corn). I'll be contacting you

Hmm, I think you must have been caught "under a glass moon" and turned into
a flaming idiot. Afterall, it doesn't take a genius to realize that they
made this list un-moderated for a reason!!!!... Yes, we do need to keep up
on dream theater, but we are also entitled to have a little fun now and then
without all the winers attacking us........DAMIEN...
p.s.. I for one supported the sig wars while they lasted. I think it was a fun
burst of creativity........
