       It seems as if the floodgates to bitchiness have been thrown wide open
    on this list. I feel partially responsible for this epidemic of
    nastiness...but let's give it a rest folks! For the past couple of weeks
    this list has degenerated unbelievably! It's almost as if people are
    AFRAID to post due to the ammount of flames shooting everywhere! Let's all
    take DEEP BREATHS, COOL our jets and try to keep from flaming people over
    silly, silly, stupid things! If you can't help yourself....flame in
    private! If somebody calls a band a bunch of wankers...realize it's there
    opinion! The Dream Theater NOT Dream Theatre thing comes up often enough
    that Ben shouldn't have been flamed for the correction. The Mag Ad thing
    has surfaced in the past...and there's probably not a damn thing we can do
    except hit the "DELETE" button or bring back moderation. So let's just TRY
    to mellow out a little, O.K.?
       As far as the Rock and Roll hall of shame is concerned...here's a quote
    from Frank Zappa that pretty much sums it up...
    "Not only is there more stupidity than anything else in terms of
     universal quantity, but there is a wonderful quality to this stupidity.
     It is so intensely perfect that it completely overwhelms whatever it is
     that nature has piled up on the other pan of the scale.
    "Stupidity is replicating itself at an astonishing rate. It breeds
     easily and is self-financing.
    "The person who stands up and says, "This is stupid," either is asked to
     'behave' or, worse, is greeted with a cheerful "Yes, we know! Isn't it
     terrific!"
     - Frank Zappa "All About Schmucks" in The Real Frank Zappa Book,
       Poseidon Press 1988

    Message-ID: <199603260041.RAA21801@mail.usa.net>

    I was just wondering if anyone out there has purchased the
    Queensryche CDROM, and if so, how is it???.. I've heard from
    a couple of people that it is absolutely trippy and beautiful..
    Somebody else mentioned not to play it unless you are on acid.
    I wonder if he was<G>? I did download a mini movie of it on
    the net and some of the graphics on it were up to par with Myst.
    I'm assuming though since nobody has mentioned it on there, that
    nobody has picked it up. It's pretty expensive and the system
    requirements are pretty high for smooth play as well....
    Take Care.....Dusty

    I sent in my order. I got the first six fine. Then I sent in my
    selection for my "one at half price" -- B.H Todd and the Monsters' Sister
    Sweetly. Well, after I recieved the wrong CD (Romulus Hunt Famil, I
    can't remeber the artist, but I know it's something I would have never
    ordered) I called their help line (NOT a 1-800, it's long distance) and
    told them that they had sent me a Selection Of The Month by mistake.
    They told me that the CD wasn't a SotM, but one that I had ordered!

    After some badgering I found that the B.H.Todd CD I had actually order
    wasn't a CD that they carry.
    "It's in the damn catalog right here."
    "I'm sorry, Sir, but we must not carry it any longer"
    "So you're telling me that in the two weeks between the time that I placed
     the order from the latest catalog, and the time that you filled it, the
     item just dissapeared!? It's not exactly a popular CD."
    "I'm afraid so."
    "Then perhaps you can explain why your company felt it necessary to fill
    the order with a CD that isn't even in my 'Area of Listening Interest,'
    without contacting me first?"
    "I'm afraid I can't answer that, Sir."
    "I didn't think so."
    --click--

    Now, I'm not saying that BMG is a bad company. I have done business with
    them in the past without a problem. It's just that sometimes their staff
    makes keu look intellegent in comparison.

    The back says:
     WAKING UP THE WORLD
         TOUR 94-95
    and lists tour dates and cities from
    Oct 20th Providence, RI to Dec 9th Los Angeles, CA

    Megadeth prog? i mean my fave album of theirs is Rust In Peace.and
    ok..songs from there are complex and long..but it doesnt make it prog...
    also..someone said something about Prog being difficult to listen to..
    in my opinion its not..if you find it difficul to listen to..well i dont
    know..its all so "together" musically and lyrically it just flows...at
    least with Dream Theater it does.. and also some people who say they
    dont like Dt..because their music its "too" perfect.. i mean..dont get
    me wrong.. is that bad? i mean music is written to be played perfectly
    dont you think..if you write a piece..would you like it to be played
    perfectly or youd prefer someone who puts in "emotion" to it and screws
    it all up...also..people who say Dream Theater's music doesnt have any
    soul or feeling to it... YOU SHOULD GET NEW BRAINS OR SOMETHING :)

    Who ever wrote this, I forgive you. Your mind must have been fairly
    clouded. Maybe you just haven't listened to Awaken the Guardian or No Exit,
    because they kick Megadeth's ass!! I can't believe you said such things.
    Well, I forgive you. Please do check out Fates' earlier stuff. It is alot
    better (personally, anyway) than Megadeth. I do, however, really dig Rust
    in Piece, or whichever it is. I especially like Five Magics and Tornado of
    Souls. Take 'er easy!!

    Wow! I can't believe that somebody mentioned LETHAL! I've had their CD
    "Programmed" for a couple years now and am happy to hear that they have a new
    one. The guys' hometown is Erlanger Kentucky, only about an hour from my fair
    city! I know that's not a big deal for all you New York folks, but it is when
    you live in Kentucky.

    About the new CD: Last I heard they got rid of one of their guitar players,
    is that true? Are they still on Metal Blade? Info, Please!

    Also, Feyd, if you want to talk more about classical guitar technique then feel
    free to e-mail me privately.

    See you later, and enjoy your ytsejam,

        I have a feeling whoever is doing this is using a fake address.
    I've tried sending messages to the sender every time one of these
    appears on the jam, and every time it bounces. I think that except for
    the name of the person sending it, the pitch is exactly the same, word
    for word, every time.
        I don't know if we'll ever know who is doing this. Hopefully this

    I'm not the only twisted individual on this list. ;)

    Dub some DT onto a tape, and find a means of playing it back at a
    significantly faster speed. Most of us would most likely be able to do it
    with a dual cassette deck with high-speed dubbing. Oh man, you're in for
    quite a ride! I know, it's been done before, but it's more fun with DT's
    music. ;)

    But seriously, listening at double speed is helpful for transcribing too.
    Things like bass and drums move forward in the mix. Also, you get used
    to hearing it at the faster speed, so when you listen back at normal or
    half-speed, it sounds more manageable. It's yet another possible
    permutation of listening, and with each permutation, you'll hear some things
    better - definitely helpful for transcribing; or just for fun!

    Did everyone have a nice Spring Break? Did everyone HAVE a Spring Break?
    Does everyone here celebrate Spring? Any anti-seasonalists?

    (Early warning for the fragile people: NO DREAM THEATER CONTENT.)

    Geez, some of you sure do complain a lot. As a user of the Internet with
    no .sig file whatsoever, I might as well conform for a minute and do what
    everyone else is doing, of course from my own cliff.

    "Hey all you people with .sig files of any sort, stop it! Stop putting
    them after your posts! It hurts my eyes! It makes my feet ache! Ouch! Cut
    it out! My computer is a custom-made model that lacks all ability to
    remove text, or delete messages or files of any sort! And I've been
    stapled to the keyboard so that I HAVE to use it! I can't replace my
    setup! And I have no eyelids, so I have to read absolutely EVERYTHING!
    Please stop creating .sig files! No, stop creating altogether! STOP!!!"

    The list became pregnant with Megadeth while you were gone. And as much as you hate to admit that the child is partially yours, you still attempt to guide it. Reminds me of an old Michael Jackson song. ;)

    Obviously, you are a nurturer, Nate. Women take note, this man has a feminine side.

    (if that "remark" offends anyone, get the fuck off the list, because I'm not about to change and neither is Nate. chances are no matter where you go there will still be humans. so until you learn a language of an animal other than a human being, you're shit outta luck. deal with it, rook.)

    Did I say that? Sorry, it's just that I've been listening to Uncle Andy lately. Andy Clay, eloquent spoken-word performer, perhaps you've heard of him. One of the most kind, caring souls this planet has to offer. ;)

    I assume all the guitar freaks on the list have gotten wind of the Paul Gilbert cd-rom? If not, HEY GUYS!! PAUL GILBERT HAS A CD-ROM COMING OUT!! Absorb the Queensryche, maybe dabble with the Sarah McLachlan, fumble around with the Paul Gilbert in a vain attempt to understand his mind, then get back into the rocking chair and wait patiently for the Steve Vai in the months to come.

    What I want to know is, when is WildKoba going to open a brain-hurting dojo? ("Kobayate" class?) When you can take the brain from my skull, you may leave, grasshoppah... (and I'm not a yokozuna, Dave)

    I'm sorry that I have nothing to say about Dream Theater, but I've probably already praised them about 50 times on this list, written about 100 posts in reference to their releases, already covered the Christmas shows as much as I could, and told everyone what I thought of Mike's snare sound on ACOS. I still enjoy their music very much and look forward to their next release. What else can I do but love them?

    You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all different.

    Bafu Vai
