Peruvian Skies clocks in at 6:30, and the other new song Trial of Tears is
12:30! I was gonna give you these titles exclusively a couple of days ago but, I
was away, and someone beat me to it!
>By the way for those of you who dont get the fanzine I&W (you're missing out!)
I would agree with that totally. But then I'm biased as I produce it! For those
of you who still have not joined the Fan Club, I would VERY STRONGLY recommend
you do so before December, as there is the likely to be something very special
in the xmas edition of the Fan Club magazine. I shall say no more, for now.
If you want to join up, e-mail me and I will send you the details.
Cheers,

Did anybody catch Tori Amos on Letterman Last night. She was looked and
performed awesome. She played "Father Lucifer". Also did you notice
how Mark Messier came out and stole Wayne Gretzky's spotlight.

re: new titles -still no word of met part 2?
I think I'll go and look for some new cd's today.... but first a word about
living progressively.... I would ask people to be critical in more than just
the musical aspect of life because you've discovered that there is a hidden
layer of music that has all these great bands... there's usually more to
what you see in everything. But I preach, and I'll stop.

Message-ID: <199610052121.OAA07473@goodguy.goodnet.com>
It's my understanding right now that none of DT can make it to the
Ytsecon III. Alas, they're all booked up doing other things. If we had the
con in early December, they would have been able to go... but the new
album crunch is really hitting them hard right now, and both Johns and
Mike are continuing their teaching careers.
I'm still coming to NY, I hope to see you all there. The value of
the con, even without DT, is really very considerable. I'll bring as much
DT and Rush miscellany and neat shit to see and do as possible, and since
there's no band to wait on or worry about, we can go get drunk whenever
the entire attendance has arrived. :)
One week to go, ladies and gentlemen!!! :)

ah, sorry.
the Paramount is in downtown Seattle.
sadly, unless I am fortunate enough to win tickets from our local
rock-station-which-plays-mostly-alternative,
or unless they add a second show (pleasepleaseplease),
I sha'n't be going.
=(
I went to get tix at 12:30ish,
and all that they had remaining were balcony seats --
resigning myself to that, I then discover'd that
TicketBastard won't accept cheques,

oh, well.

That was me. I'm nuts because I think that song is cheesy?

immature and funny.
I'm aware of that, but that doesn't mean it isn't cheesy. I guess I just
don't get my kicks out of hearing other men talk about their weenies. It
looks like someone's getting defensive here. What was the reason you went
blind again? :)
Does anybody else think Vai sounds like Robin Williams on the 3rd pitch of
this song?

I picked up the Lemur Voice CD last night... first impressions are these
guys are musically impressive. Similiarities with Dream Theater in
musical transitions are uncanny. The production is a lot like Images &
Words, the singer's kinda annoying though. They do have flashes of
momentary brilliance...
Highlights include the beginning to Prime of Passion... Akasha
Chronicles...

Jeez, that sucks. I hate balcony seats. At the VH concert in Boise I got stuck in the nosebleed section and (You'd seen em of you were there) their huge-ass hanging speakers completely blocked my view of the stage. Thankfully, my friends and I found some empty seats in the Mezzanine area (2nd best to floor) and took 'em. Probably won't be that lucky again. IbnzRG570 a.k.a.

D-Man's new prog discovery this week is: Braindance
They're a 5-piece from NYC, and they nok radz. Imagine what would happen if you got Type O and Yes together to write and record some tunes. The singer's voice is very similar to Peter Steele's, but it's offset very nicely by the voices of the female guitarist and female keyboardist. And they kick ass instrumentally. Their song "Compund Fracture" is over 13 minutes long. Check them out at http://www.iuma.com/IUMA-2.0/ftp/volume1/Braindance/.
You gotta love any band that uses samples from Star Wars and Ren & Stimpy.

(IF THIS IS THE FIRST TIME YOU ARE SEEING THIS POST, PLEASE READ IT THROUGH COMPLETELY, THERE IS ALOT OF IMPORTANT INFORMATION)
Hey All ....
Here is my new weekly posting about how to get the most (or least if you don't like us) out of the ytsejam. This will be coming out weekly (hopefully) at least for a while since we are quickly gaining subscribers since school is now back in session. I may post it less often after a while, but for now, it will be weekly.
To get on to the Dream Theater Mailing List:
Send mail to ytsejam-request@ax.com For the subject of the message put:
asdf
In the body of the message put:
subscribe ytsejam Your Name
replace Your Name with your real name (eg: Ryan Skadberg). You should recieve a confirmation letter in the your mailbox within 24 hours. If you do not, mail ytsejam-owner@ax.com and I will help you out as soon as possible.
To change the mode you recieve the Dream Theater Mailing List in: There are two ways you can recieve the ytsejam. The first is in digest which is the default. This sends you a large message which contains 15-20 emails each. The other is ack mode, which means you recieve each piece of mail as it comes through. To do this:
Send mail to ytsejam-request@ax.com For the subject of the message put:
asdf
In the body of the message put:
set ytsejam mail ack
OR
set ytsejam mail digest
If you have any problems, please mail ytsejam-owner@ax.com.
To get off the Dream Theater Mailing List:
Send mail to ytsejam-request@ax.com For the subject of the message put:
asdf
In the body of the message put:
unsubscribe ytsejam
You should recieve a confirmation letter within 24 hours. If you don't, once again, please mail ytsejam-owner@ax.com and I will help you out as soon as I can.
To recieve files from the Dream Theater Mailing List:
There are many files kept by the mailing list server. The biggest group are old issues of the jam. It is archived since 1275. If you are looking for an issue earlier than that, please mail ytsejam-owner@ax.com and I will see what I can do. There are also other files kept on the server. These include Mike Bahr CD Updates, The "UnOfficial" Dream Theater SongBook and some others. Any time I add something I usually send a post to the jam so everyone knows about it. To get a list of the files available from the server:
Send mail to ytsejam-request@ax.com For the subject of the message put:
asdf
In the body of the message put:
index ytsejam
This will send you a list of all the files available from the server. To retrieve one of these files:
Send mail to ytsejam-request@ax.com For the subject of the message put:
asdf
In the body of the message put:
get ytsejam filename
In place of filename, put the name of the file you want.
Basic Rules:
There are some basic rules to the jam which make everyone's reading alot more pleasant. Please try and follow them as closely as possible. I will send out warnings to people who blatantly disobey these. You get one warning, a second offense will get your jam priviledges taken away.
1. Do not post just for the sake of posting. There is already a lot of valid traffic on this list, we don't need unnecessary posts which are a waste of everyone's time. The basic rule you should all try to follow is to think before you post.
2. No Top Ten (Five, Twenty, Thirty, etc) lists. These lists are a waste. They take up alot of bandwidth and fill up everyone's mailbox much faster than they would like it filled up. If you want to know everyone's top somethings, please ask for ALL responses to be mailed directly to you. This has been done with the end results posted to the jam and it was very very nice.
3. Do not start / participate in / complain about long off-topic discussions. These have gotten WAY out of hand in the past. If one starts, I will post once saying to stop and take it to private email, anyone continuing the discussion will recieve a warning. These include such topics as God, NIN, Blind Melon, bands selling out, etc.
4. Private E-Mail is a wonderful thing. Use it when you think it may be more useful than posting to the jam.
5. Last, but not least, this is YOUR ytsejam. I am around, and I do administrative work, but I do not say what can/cannot be talked about (most of the time) or moderate in any real way. I am the Ytsejam Administrator more than Moderator. Don't complain if the jam seems to be going downhill, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
Basically, that is all the basic info. As always, if you have any problems feel free to mail me. I get ALOT of mail on a daily basis, so it sometimes takes me a while to get back to you, but 99% of the time, I will get back to you eventually.
Thanks for Reading and Enjoy the List!!!
