    It is *EXTREMELY* important that the following people email me:

    1. TIME CLAUDILL
    2. BILL HUSTON
    3. "MATT + MELISSA"

    Recently my apartment was vandalized and most of my CDs taken. However,
    after reporting the incident to the police and a number of used CD stores
    in the area, the idiot who robbed me tried to sell most of them back to one
    of the stores, and eventually the police nabbed him. Sure enough he had all
    of the CDs. I bring this up only because I had arranged to sell a few of my
    CDs to the people listed above, and I have lost their email accounts. I had
    notified them immediately after the breakin occured NOT to send $ for these
    CDs, for I never thought in a million years that I'd ever see the discs
    again. However, the police got back to me and said that they'd have to
    retain possession of the discs for another 2 weeks or so until the
    "preliminary hearing" of this foolio; following this trial, they will be
    returned to me in full.
    So, to the three listed above, THE CDS WILL BE AVAILABLE WITHIN A COUPLE OF
    WEEKS, SO SIT TIGHT IN THE MEANTIME. ALL IS NOT LOST.

    Bill: I hastily sent back your money order yesterday. Sorry for not taking
    things a bit more slowly, except that as I stated above, I never thought
    those CDs would again see the light of day. Please be in touch ASAP!!

    Best Regards...

    by A&M/Polygram. they've recently gained some popularity w/ the
    single "High" on empty v the radio, which is on ...Pushing the Salmanilla

    Message-ID: <1523C73C.7B20@PioneerPlanet.infi.net>

    Hi folk's I've been on and off the list for, well since it
    started at the very start. Ive never posted but I feel I must do so now.
    I would just like to say that in my opinion the new stuff that Ive heard
    from them (burning my soul,lines in the sand,take away my pain,just let
    me breathe,peruvian skies) is totally and completely the best stuff they
    have ever written. I mean, I can't believe that nobody else had said
    this. I lean more towards I&W than Awake and I can say that this new CD
    will just be awesome. It's hard to explain but people don't worry, I'm
    telling everyone to chill and to just get ready for CD of the decade.
    All this derek V.S kevin crap is startin to bug me. Stupidity bugs me.
    I know that some guy wrote huge reviews on alot of the new songs. I
    loved it and thank him for it but he was or at least to me was not very
    excited about it as a whole. He was like "well folk's there you have it
    a little bit of everything". On an ending note I'm just sayin after
    hearing those songs..get ready cause this CD is gonna tear down your
    house. It's got more and better of everything. Is it prog? hell yes
    even in the short songs it's got huge prog parts. Is it emotional? God
    yes, you just wait. Is it heavy? I think that it's the heaviest, and I
    know Mike said it's not as heavy as awake but let me just say this.
    Johns riff's have gotten awesome. I think he needed some help on em in
    awake but on this album when the heavy parts come it will make your blood
    rush more then ever. So people just shut up about talking down to DT
    shut about Derek and quit all your pathetic complaining. It's getting
    old. It's easy to sit back in your little world and say I want this and
    I want that. Well there doin it. To DT's defense. I believe FII will
    be, by far the best and I'm happy for em

            Since the new cd will be out soon and there will probally be a tour
    to follow wouldn't it be great if list members had a chance to meet the band
    without having to take chances like waiting around with lots of other people
    after the show? I am on another mailing list that gives its' members
    pre-show meet and greet passes for one show on their current tour. I must
    say that it would have to be organized by someone who is in contact with the
    band and could make sure that everyone would have a fair chance at meeting
    the band in an organized fashion.
            The way it works on my other list is the owner of the official web
    page of this band is in contact with the bands tour manager and they send a
    fax with the names of the people whom are to have passes for each venue then
    passes are picked up with an ID at will call. It is such a great experience
    to meet a band at a meet and greet and DT seems like the kind of band that
    would appreciate their internet fans.
            This is just a suggestion. I really don't want to be flamed for
    this. My only intention is to present what is being done by other bands to
    accomodate their internet fans. Feel free to make any suggestions or just
    show your support and maybe we can get something together to get to meet one
    of the greatest bands in the world.

    See ya,

    Subject: Fish show/CD
    Message-ID: <c=US%a=_%p=bostech%l=CARRIER-970802200930Z-38072@carrier.btrd.bostontechnology.com>

    Well, since I know that it will give Scratchy a Stiffy (or Stiffy an
    Itchy :), I decided to post about how absolutely decent the Fish show
    this week was (Paradise, Boston). For starters, Mastermind opened up.
    They are really worth a listen. Even better than Pleasure Crush.
    Really. Good guitar work in a 3-piece prog-rock format. I thought that
    the drumming was a bit simplistic, but then I had listened to DT on the
    drive into town ........ One downside is that the CDs which they were
    selling at the show were expensive as hell for a band that isn't exactly
    a household name ($20-25). WTF ??!! Does anyone have any of their CDs
    ??

    Fish really knows how to put on a show. About 2.5 hours. Quite the
    showman and quite the personality. At the same time, he comes across as
    a little bit stuck on himself yet honest, sincere and endearing. There
    was one dude at the beginning who hinted at being a bit rude and Fish
    shut him up quickly. Few dared to utter a malicious peep after that.
    And, to prove that this treatment is received in a positive manner, this
    same dude was dancing the jig with Fish towards the end of the show
    (Fish went into the crowd to dance a bit). For minimal DTC, it wouldn't
    hurt in the *slightest* for KJL to see a Fish show to see how Fish
    handles a less than perfect crowd. This is constructive criticism from
    one who only means well, not more fodder for "I hear what they say about
    me on the Internet".

    In terms of the music, the setlist was tilted quite heavily towards his
    latest release (Sunsets). Which is fine, because I think that it this
    best effort since Vigil. Only, some in the audience may not have heard
    this CD yet. This new stuff seems to have a bit more of a musical edge
    than some of the more recent material. Fish seemed quite well and it
    was a treat to have the keyboardist from the Vigil period (Micky
    Simmonds ??) there. Not much Marillion, but that period was indeed a
    long time ago. I wanted to hear Incubus, but no luck. And, why does he
    practically never play View From the Hill ??

    But, overall, this is a show really worth seeing. Fish plays no metal,
    but its hard not to enjoy the musicianship and the show in general. $10
    cover. As Fish would say, "Fucking Brilliant".

    Later,
    Mark Metzger

    Marillion Sept 10 !!

    guys. I've been on Ytsejam since 300 or something, but haven't been able to

    I have a ticket available for the Queensryche show on the 5th of August
    (that's *this* Tuesday) at the Mann Music Center in Philadelphia. It's a
    beauty seat, second row center, practically on stage, and, since there's
    been no interest in it to this point, all I'm asking for it ($41.50 value)
    is a mere $20. Hell, you could haggle me lower even. It's not *my* money,

    Please, if you're at all interested, E-mail me ASAP, or gimme a call at

    For those of you wondering, I was able to find a way to the QR concert last night(I hired a car) and it was AWESOME! I'm still a little bit on air from it!

    Compared to what I heard of most concerts' opening acts, I think we lucked out. Ours was a band called "Dirty Larry," and through all of their set, they reminded me of seeing Stabbing Westward open for Depeche Mode in 94. Nothing to get excited about, but not total shit either. Although I think the bicycle was a bit much.

    As for QR themselves, the show rocked! If anyone had any doubts about them losing their edge, those thoughts would have been disuaded tonight! The three songs from HitNF that they did during their regular set-"The Voice Inside," "You," and "Reach," all(IMHO) sounded much better live than they did on the CD. And, of course, the lights and the boys' stage movements helped too. :-)

    My only two complaints were these-They didn't do anything from Rage, and I didn't care for the two songs they did for their encore-"Sign of the Times" and "Some People Fly."

    But, was it worth it? Absolutely! If you have an opportunity to go, Go!
