This may be a pain in the ass, but how about letting
*everyone* who wants to participate in the tribute
musically do it......
Whoever wants to be a part of it could send an ADAT of
whatever they think they can do really well according
to the specifications, etc....
It may be a pain in the ass with a lot of mail coming
your way, but this way you don't exile people who
actually may do it better or with better sound quality,
etc....plus, on the package they put down the instrument
and song....You can file them, and when it comes to that
song, you can see which parts fit best within the whole
scheme of things....
This I think would be the most democratic way to do it,
almost like auditioning....no one will get pissed off
at any one person because they were left out, and you
can thank all the people who contributed their efforts
in the liner notes......
Just my $0.02....

For the very limited time the petition has been up and active, I'm very
pleased with the turn out. I want to commend all of you who have put
forth the initiative to cast your vote for a new Dream Theater album.
We're not there yet, though. We will need to assemble even more entries
here than the petition for ACoS had. It's a fact... if EastWest sees LESS
interest in this album than in ACoS, they're not going to care one way or
another about the band. I can't stress this enough, how important it is
that you ALL sign. The Ytsejam has to be the main force behind this
petition, because we're the primary forum for Dream Theater discussion.
This is our duty to complete. We are the most active Dream Theater fans
on the planet, and we should be proud of that.
I need anyone who has information about the ACoS petition to come forward
and post here or write me in e mail about strategies and tactics used in
that campaign. I really want a count of how many signatures were on that
petition.
I have to ask some of you who are on the Dream Theater newsgroup
frequently to push the issue there as well. We need as much coverage as
possible. I want to send this petition in two weeks, and that gives us
little time to advertise.
Thanks for your help

Does anyone remember a guy named Chris Impelliterri? I was digging through my
box of old tapes and found "Stand In Line" with Graham Bonnet on vocals
(arghh...). Anyway, the guitars were pretty cool (if you like 64th note runs
coming at you for about 40 minutes). If anyone has any info on him, I'd
appreciate it. I'd like to get some of his newer stuff if he has any.
Thanks.

Hello all! Like other people have indicated, I am proud to be a part of
this whole tribute thing. My request is this. I've been in touch with
Vince Lupone
about some songs, and TTT is on the list. I believe that TTT is one of the
cornerstone songs in the DT library. AS far as I know now, there is only me
on drums and AR Bell on guitar. I'm asking if anyone can play the song on
bass, keys, or sing it, let vince know @ vgl@u.arizona.edu or let me know at:
dtgnr@nh.ultranet.com
I'd love to see this song make it on the Tribute.
Rock on,
Tony

Okay guys, I have little or no interest in coordinating the Tribute,
because I want no responsibility for anything that happens (Cat fights,
drive by shootings, complaints, etc) HOWEVER, I am more than willing to
offer a mailing list for this discussion to be run on. Vince and Jazzmin:
I nominate the two of you to organize this (possibly with Hector's help)
Tribute. Learn to get along. If you want to take me up on my Mainling
List offer, contact each other, and decide on a name for the mailing list.
I can have it functional on a moment's notice. That way we'll decrease
the traffic on the jam.
Contact me at someone@prognosis.com. I'm willing to help people record
out here in the Midwest (A friend of mine has the Roland VS-880 digital
hard disk recorder) or to go to Arizona this summer (because that would be
a blast!).

Alright! C.Impellitteri released 3 full album and 1 mini album after the
depurture from G.Bonnet.
First release was "Grin And Bear It" fronted by his original vocalist Rob
Rock (known as his works with T. Macapine,A.Rudi Pell). Standard hard rock
album like P.Gilbert always plays. (JVC-Victor 1992)
The second one was 5 tracks ep called "Victim Of The System". Recommending
one! He went back to neo-classical style. The first track 'Victim Of The
System' rocks. Very speedy and technical song. And you'll love ballad
'Cross To Bear'. (JVC-Victor 1993)
And the next one was "Answer To The Master" album. Impressive! He expanded
"VOTS" ep. So the same style with that album. Deffinetely his masterpiece.
(JVC-Victor 1994)
Finally,the latest one was titled "Screaming Symphony". The same style
with former one. But a bit non-polished. (JVC-Victor,Music For Nations
1996)
So here's his complete (Except compilation stuff)
Impellitteri (4track ep)
Stand In Line (1st)
those 2 discs are still available from Sony Music Entertainment Japan.
Grin And Bear It (2nd)
Victim Of The System (5track ep)
Answer To The Master (3rd)
Screaming Symphony (4th)
those catalogues are from JVC-Victor Entertainment. SS album are also
available from Music For Nations.
Thanks.

After lambasting Vince for "botching things", my hand is up to let Vince
run things. After all, he has set up a studio and actually called the guy
involved, which is paramount to simply picking songs. He has also said
that he is not adverse to any song being in there as long as there are
people to fill it out. It doesn't seem like he's the one being the
control freak.
So with all due respect Jazzmin, having an idea is one thing,
executing it is another. So would someone care to tell Jazzmin whose idea
this really was last year (or was it the year before)?
I ask only one thing: If Space Dye Vest is going to be on the
album, I be allowed to have some part in it. Someone claimed the guitar
and vocals, I'd do either. I can also do the keys if given the music two
weeks in advance, and the bass as well. Please let me in on this one. I
beg of you...

Hi all,
I don't mean to clutter up yer mailbox too much (with this whole tribute
CD discussion goin' on...in fact, that's my main concern in this post),
especially since email traffic has jumped considerably (for me, anyways).
Enuff of the formalities:
It's truly hysterical that a) guitarists are a dime a dozen, and 2) all
of 'em want to contribute to this album, myself included. Unfortunately,
only the meatiest chops survive the butcher, so...
I want to play the triangle! Or the shotgun (Metallifans know what I"m
talkin' about here).
Another problem that I know Vince is gonna face (seriously, I've been in
his dorm room) is all the fookin' mail he's gonna have to handle.
Please split up the chores here; have Jazzmin carry out the east coast
operations and Vince the southwest operations, and maybe even a third
collaberation on this thing. A double CD may be what comes out of this
whole thing if we get enough blood, sweat, studio time and dead rodents.
The whole thing looked fantastic until somebody (Jazzmin) stomped on
another person's (Vince) foot. "All ya need is love." Come on here,
can't we all just get along?
Second topic: (NDTC)
Are there decent sound adapters/peripherals for Macintosh? Are
they better or worse than PC? I'm thinking of buying a Mac over a PC,
'cuz quite simply, I'm a studio artist who's studying varying forms of
animation. So ya might see the connection there. It'd also be nice if I
could get myself recorded onto the danged thing (This is where
ytse-computer people come in). I heard Steve Vai mastered his new
album, "Fire Garden" on a Mac.
Now back to your regular flame warring,

Yes, I agree with Andrew. If it does get done, I will be surprised.
But keep thinking that you guys will do a tribute. It just makes me delete

Hello,
Ok, this is the thing so far... I will be out this weekend until
Monday, so any e-mail you send will not be read until then. I'm planing
to do some preliminary recordings (nothing final) next weekend with some
jammers from AZ, I'm going to make a wav file out of this and send it to
the JAM. This is just to give people and idea of what it will probably
sound like. I'm not going to do this thing if it ends up being an AZ DT
TRIBUTE, that is not what I want. I will do as much as I can to get as
many people involved in the recording. Fortunately I don't have to
organize this damn thing because it seems like some have taken it as
their duity already, but I will withdraw my offer if this whole thing
gets too messed up. I don't want any hard feelings between anyone, and
I don't want to end up being the one to blame. THIS WILL WORK!!! I know
we can put something together that we will be proud of, but remeber,
your participation is crucial. Again, I will be gone all weekend, but I
will try to keep in touch as best I can. I hope all is well. Please
take this thing seriously.
Sincerely,

Subject: DT tribute stuff
Message-ID: <199702142128.OAA19232@goodguy.goodnet.com>
OK all, here's what I've noticed so far...
1. The AZ location is probably pretty good. We have some flexibility in
location. I'm willing to drive down to Tucson to do whatever parts need
doing. I also have access to a house with a nice sizable garage here in
Gilbert (my in-laws' place) so whatever facilities are necessary, we can
probably get. Vince, my voice number's on my web page if you want to give
me a ring.
2. I have a DAT recorder... not the greatest one, but it will suffice for
storing the finished versions of the songs.
3. Don't sweat it if someone already called a part you wanted!!
Personally, I was gonna have some people get together with me to do an
acoustic version of Pull Me Under and a bluegrass version of Take The
Time, all totally independent of the people doing the "real" covers. Cover
tapes are only as awesome as your variations make them... provided you
play well and with energy and spirit. There can easily be multiple
interpretations of the same songs on the tribute. The Tori Covered tribute
has some songs that I hate one version of and like another version of. Of
course, most everything on it sucks. That said, I want to hear a country
version of Don't Look Past Me.
4. Would I be the distributor for it? I don't know, this just came up, and
though I'm complimented that people turn to me automatically, I really
haven't been secretly planning this all along as a profit-making venture.
:) I'm willing though. If I don't do it, Jim
Colberg might... he's a crack shot with a CD burner. We'll just have to
see. I'll say this: I'll do it if I can commit to making the production
and turnaround time reasonably small, based on my backorder load at that
time.
Take it easy everyone!!

To all contributing to this effort, I think it's a very cool idea. Not
only would the final product be something great to listen to, but it
shows just how spirited the jammers on this list are. I'm not one to
contribute, but would be willing to pay just about anything for the final
product. I'm sure many feel the same way. I wish everyone the best of luck
and urge everyone to contribute. It should be a real honor!

I finally found a place to buy some bootleg and importations (I live in Quebec city, Canada, the country just to the north of USA, maybe you can see it on a map...) I bought Awake, live on video in Japan. It's a great show but I have difficulties with the bass. Sometimes, it's too rough, you can hear the strings like if he uses a hammer instead of his fingers. Like in Lie or Mirror, the bass is over all the others instruments. My question is: Can you find this sound on several others bootleg? (cuz I'm planning to buy some and I don't want to be disapointed) Also, I heard about Superior, is it good?, I listened 1 song and I was surprised. Maybe some comparaison will be appreciated Finaly, Eldritch have an upcomming album. When it will be available?
Thanks in advance Long life to Dream Theater
