    Oops! Didn't mean to do that....

    I sent a check to the DTIFC back in October. My check was returned to
    me, cashed of course, but I still haven't received the Xmas care
    package. Neil was the one who told me how to join, but he expressly told
    me not to email him with questions about the fanclub. Does anyone know
    where I can direct my questions about the DTIFC? If so, any help would
    be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    actually, the singers name is poe, and yes the CD is called hello and includes alot of great songs, there is even a guest appearence by Gn'Rs drummer Matt Sorum. this chick is even greater in concert, saw her when she opened up for 7mary3 (dont know why i went to that)at the TLA in Philly, never heard her B4 and was blown away.

    so what is the name of the band? from your reviews i'd be interested in hearing there music.

    None come to mind, vice versa. The latest trend is to wait forever between two releases.

    Then again, I'd be broke and in debt very soon if my favorite artists began releasing something every year (and maybe twice sometimes). Add the singles, live albums, bootlegs, compilations, tribute albums...

    Shrapnel probably won't get it because Tony will make a LOT More money by staying offthe label. Shrapnel and Magna Carta it would seem have pretty unfair recording contracts (I now have multiple sources for this statement {none of which are on the jam}, although they don't want to be named, so I have to believe this is fact). If Tony was getting eaten alive like some of these people were and are, then I don't at ALL blame him.

    To the guy who spoke of Macalpine, Please ask the man if he's still giving lessons. If he is, could you find out where out of and how to get on the waiting list? Rumor has it he lives in the Bay Area and I'd really like to get some lessons if he has the slots open. Last I heard, he was still teaching. Thanks. Matt B

    Heya,

    Me and Bret (who just started posting to the 'Jam recently.. but then again, so did I) were talking about how cool the individual members of DT were recently. Not just as musicians, but as people. For example, in LiT, how funny KevMo is. (Yes, I know KevMo isn't in DT anymore, I'm still going through withdrawl) So we we talking about each individual member, and we got to John Myung and realized that we really don't know as much about him as the others. He's kinda "quiet" on stage, isn't much seen on LiT, etc. I've seen many bios on them and read the FAQ many a time, but it still doesn't seem like we really know much about him, personality-wise.. I don't really know what kind of an answer I'm looking for... maybe if someone could reccomend a video that has more of Myung on it?

    >> real Dream Theater Fan. This thing is f*cking awesome! JP's solo >> at the end of To Live Forever might be the highlight of the vid. >> This is Barfbag, right? (reopening an old controversy). Of course,

    >Actually the song is called "moonbubbles." "Barfbag" appears on the Mike >Bahr WDATU disc. However, he labelled it as "showdown."

    AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!! No no no no no!!! - here we go again!! :) :)

    Okay everyone take notes (or check out the "article" about instrumentals on the official DT web page!)

    Moon Bubbles was an instrumental done during the first part of the I&W tour - it consisted of bass and guitar - that's all. Once you here this track, you'll understand why it was called Moon Bubbles.

    The solo at the end of TLF (which is on the LiT video as well as the Lords of Sound, and Dream in Progress boots) as far as I know has no name.

    Barfbag as is stated above is the instrumental that follows TLF during the final part of the I&W tour. This is the instrumental that appears after TLF on WDATU as well as on the Lost in the Sky boot.

    Hope everything is clear now (for at least 6 months ;) ).

    Is anyone here really into Dire Straits? I think Mark Knopfler is one of the best guitarists in the world and will always be one of my favorites. I can shred like Yngwie or some others, but I can never have the sense of melody he does. I think his playing is so beautiful. I'm sorry for nothing about DT, but I was just doins some listening and getting chills. Be well. Matt B

I mentioned > it mostly as a joke to the proprietor of Atlanta Pro Percussion and > he said "Whew, wish there was; there'd be a LOT of interest in it!" In the last year I was in Japan and saw a MP instructional video. Well, I'm not a drummer and it was very expensive so I didn't buy but I know there are Japanese jammers here so you can ask for it (I believe this video is released only in Japan, as a lot of other things...) And I've heard about a bass instr. video from J. Myung (just for Japan, too). Has anybody seen it? I would like to know what parts of songs are on this (maybe "that" part from Metropolis??) And finally some recommendations for DT like stuffs: Symphony X (their "Damnation Game" is great!) IQ (try their album "Ever") (I don't know why nobody knows these 2 bands... IMO they are more DTish than Shadow Gallery, Superior or Lemur Voice.)

    I am running Warp 4 Merlin on a 701CS (486/75 with 16MB RAM) and on a 760EL (P5/120, 40 MB) without any problems. Hot-swapping PCMCIA cards works as expected (Modem card, IBM Tokenring).

    Check the IBM WWW pages at www.pcco.ibm.com for OS/2 drivers if you need them, esp. for the newer models there are drivers available which were not yet included on the Warp 4 Device Driver CD-ROM.

    BTW, Rough Cutt have reformed and their live album is available thru Perris distribution outta Michigan.

    In regards to the comment about GC's first CD being representative of thier music overall. I am a huge GC fan...but I have never been able to get in to their first CD. Maybe it was because I started with "Space in your Face" (after seeing GC for the first time in Dallas opening up for DT!). SIYF, I feel, is a much better collection of GC tunes. Their song writing skills have continued to improve, as "Machine Fish" is also an EXCELLENT CD. I also bought "Feel the Rage" EP a month or so back...but I always end up replacing it with MF.

    Last Monday I heard a song of Artension, a new prog rock band. It sounded like a combination of Dream Theater and Yngwie Malmsteen (his first album). The following is partly taken from a Website:

    "Artension is the name of a new band, formed around the keyboard player Vitalij Kuprij, born in Ukraine, and the Swiss guitarist Roger Staffelbach. Mike Varney, the big boss behind the Shrapnel label, coupled those 2 musicians on account of their demo to 3 American colleagues. These 3 musicians are singer John West, bass player Kevin Chown (played with Tony MacAlpine!!!) and drummer Mike Terrana (Tony MacAlpine and ex-Yngwie!!!). The debut album of Artension, titled 'Into The Eye Of The Storm', received possitive reactions in the US. The music of Artension is best described as progressive and neo-classic hardrock and therefore it will be interesting for people who like bands as Rainbow, Deep Purple and Dream Theater."

    A Belgium magazine gives 90 out of 100 and compares them with DT and SG.

    I think it's worth checking out.

    BTW: The album is called: Into the eye of the storm
