    Hey, I just picked up TSO today. I think it is incredible. I am glad I
    got some xmas music for the season. I encourage all of the other jammers
    to purchase this item. Very good work. See ya.

    My friend has the Mechanix release of WDaDU. I am pissed. Why can I not
    find this album. I don't want it on One Way. Any ideas where to get it?

    Thanks guys!

    Now, I agree with a lot that was said in this post...but I have to
    question this statement, at least, in regards to Rush.

    If Rush has "cycled toward commercialism", then why is it that the much
    of the Rush I hear is from 1982 (ie: Signals) and earlier? Wouldn't their
    newer material get more airplay if it was more commercial? Aside from the
    occasional "Test For Echo" (when the album was first released) and the
    _one_ time I heard "Ghost of a Chance," where is this fabled
    commercialism? Progressive rock doesn't (just) mean 20 minute songs about
    otherwordly forces (2112) and allegorical quests for meaning (The
    Fountain of Lamneth). I firmly believe that Rush is writing and playing
    the kind of music that they want to write.

    I've got a pantheon of animals in a pagan soul
    Vishnu and Gaia - Aztec and Maya
    Dance around my totem pole

    That's commercial? I think that's quite far removed from "So....tell me
    what you want what you really really want."

    Sorry, for the outburst. Later

    I knew someone would call me on that :). I think The Acoustic Dreams
    version of LSOAD qualifies as a ballad (sort of like the electric TSM
    qualifies as a mid-tempo song). As for Surrounded, you're right. But it
    starts and ends as a ballad and it was the only one that I could think of
    that had to do with faith.

    To quote the band Alias, "In a perfect world...." Unfortunately, this
    world is far from perfect and the music business is even less so. To
    ignore the "commerical world" is an idealistic concept and one which NO
    band on ANY major label can do. Hell, even Aerosmith was sent back to the
    drawing board when they turned in the masters for Nine Lives (after which
    they brought in, coincidentally, Kevin Shirley). The music business is
    very much one of natural selection: those that can't adapt will die. I
    know that isn't really the heart of natural selection, but it's pretty
    good analogy for my purposes here. Besides, DT has admitted in interviews
    that they have a love for commerical music (U2, Elton John, Journey)
    as well as for progressive music and I personally think they are at their
    best when they combine the two (Surrounded, LSOAD, etc). Some say that FII
    crossed the commercial line. Fine. I say WDADU crossed the prog line. It's
    a matter of taste.

    Of course it was the Lion Voltron, which kicks ass, and not that lame Vehicle
    wanna-be voltron that nobody every wanted. Nothing pissed me off more than
    coming home from school to watch voltron and seeing all these little cars
    forming up.

    I'm thinking about making some DT action figures, btw. James gets a megaphone
    and a tamborine, etc. I could do it, too, if I had the time.

    I have this idea.....I know it has probably been thought of before but it
    would be cool. DT should remix WDaDU and have the vibrant James LaBrie
    perform the vocals. I am almost positive the members of DT would not be
    up for it but it sure would be cool. I guess a live bootleg could be made
    up of the songs in the order of WDaDU. Hey, if anyone else is with me

    Been there, done that -- have the t-shirt. DT said they won't rerecord WDaDU, but Mike Bahr has a boot CD with live recordings of WDaDU songs -- When Dream and Today Unite -- visit his page (http://www.goodnet.com/~durnik) and check it out -- good quality overall -- two audience and the rest soundboard sources.

    Hello jammers, I was just writing to see if DT actually confirmed the = Orlando and Ft. Lauderdale dates. What I think they do not relaize is = that a lot of the college fans are under exam week which coincides with = the Tampa gig on the 17th. DT needs to confirm the Orlando and Ft. = Lauderdale gig because they will be missing out on a lot of college fans = if they don't. Besides, I know we packed the Orlando John Petrucci = clinic!! =20

    So, Florida fans e-mail me and let me know what you think, perhaps we = can get some support to make them confirm those two dates!! =20

Funny thing you should compare Tourniquet and Slayer since I read a while back that Tourniquet's former guitarist Gary Lenaire (who occasionally does some lead vocals) sounds a whole lot like Tom Araya, and from what little Slayer I've heard, I can see that. Vengeance Rising also does a sorta corny but cool cover of Deep Purple's Space Truckin' on their Once Dead album. Out of all these bands,. though, Tourniquet is the only one currently doing any music. Deliverance broke up recently, Believer hasn't done anything for a few years (who knows what's up with them now), and Vengeance has been broken up for some time. As far as Believer goes, Sanity Obscure is a good example of their overall sound, some technical thrash and an orchestral track, but Dimensions is easily my favourite, simply because of Trilogy of Knowledge :). Oh yeah, also, older Deliverance sounds more like old school Anthrax. They dropped some of their speed metal style and opted to go for a heavy groove (but very much keeping a metal sound) with their last couple albums. They also wrote more introspective lyrics on the later albums, too. A couple more worth looking into would be The Crucified (for a more hard core metal/thrash sound), Living Sacrifice, and some others I can't think of off hand (my mind's blanking :).

    Well, it's not actually "my" show -- the regular host, Kevin, and the emergency backup host, Jonathan, are both friends o' mine. I just bring down CDs (DT fan club CD, Symphony-X, Superior, FW, etc.) and sometimes they play them.

    The show is on WREK-FM, Georgia Tech's radio station, which is at 91.1 FM. HOWEVER, they are also available via RealAudio feed at www.gatech.edu/wrek. The show normally runs from 10pm - 2am Friday nights into Saturday mornings. (Except Fri. the 12th, where the station is running a Grateful Dead marathon. I don't envy them the calls they'll be getting from annoyed metalheads. hehe)

    Uh, WARNING: WREKage is normally a thrash/death/black-metal show. You'll hear Obituary, At the Gates, Dissection etc. along with Therion, Pan-Thy-Monium, Cynic or DT's "Damage Inc." I'd like to get my own progressive-metal show, but you have to be a Tech student. If anyone wants to take up a collection so I can take a SCUBA class, I'm all for it. hehe

    Well, we hear old-school Metallica songs like Fade, Seek, and Master from time to time on our local hard rock station. Discuss :)

    They did NC when I saw them at the HoB and then again the next night in Palo Alto, CA when they didn't do NC. The set was exactly the same except they added on PS for the NC song. It affected the total time the band played, but the setlist was the same # of songs.

    When I'm in a serene religious mood and I'm looking for a CD to put on I feel nothing says "God loves you" better than King Diamond or Mercyful fate.

    A mime is a terrible thing to waste ;-)

    Ha! Yea, if they had them. Chances are null that'd ever happen here in the States. I DID pick up Nighttime Birds in a USED CD store last week. This thing was released in August! That was a treat.

    Umm, sorry. :-) I hung around in the middle of the hall for a few minutes when you went off to buy your t-shirt, and then I wandered over to the t-shirt stall to look for you. Couldn't find you. Ta for the drink!

    > Portnoy always delivers and his incitement to bombard Kerrapp with letters > was spot on.

    Yes. I wonder if he actually read the FII reviews in Kerrang and Metal Hammer? They were surprisingly complimentary. Still, it deserved a lot more coverage than the miniscule obligatory album reviews.

    I desperately need a tape of the London gig. If I don't get one, I'll go crazy. Anyone?
