    Whoa!!

    I just got back from one of the greatest concert experiences ever!!! I'm
    sure Dale Newberry will post something shortly concerning Cornerstone '97.

    Some great bands there: Atomic Opera (with Galactic Cowboys' Alan Doss on
    drums), Living Sacrifice, Klank, Caedmon's Call, Stavesacre, and Saviour
    Machine...plus.

    The main act was indeed SM. It was their first performance on American
    soil since their 1993 tour which they pretty much got the plug pulled on
    them due to being "too weird." Just let me say this, the two (yes,
    TWO...2...) performances were excellent. Very gothic, very moody, very
    elegant, and very intense...all in one.

    The first performance (4pm on Saturday) was material from Saviour Machine I
    and Saviour Machine II. They had some technical difficulties...a couple
    power surges. But all in all a very intense set. I can't remember fully,
    but here's what I'm pretty sure they played:
       The Stand
       Enter the Idol
       Legion
       Carnival of Souls (Dale? I'm not sure on that one.)
       Jesus Christ
       American Babylon
       Saviour Machine II

    Their second performance was that same night at 10pm. This performance was
    all of the material from "Legend Part I." They wanted to separate it from
    the other material due to it's concept and story-telling that did not
    relate to their earlier stuff at all. This performance had the band in
    full makeup (yes, Eric wore "the" broach on his forehead), and it was
    spectacularly lit by hundreds of candles. The setlist was not quite the
    same as the CD: they started with a keyboard intro and then into "Birth
    Pangs." After the last track on the CD- "Antichrist"- they went back and
    did the first part of the CD to end on a positive note. I think the only
    track on the CD not played was "Legend I:II," but don't quote me on that.

    They hope to release their CD-ROM in December 1997, their Legend Part II in
    March 1998, and Legend Part III in 1999. Full (2 month) U.S. gothic tour
    with Spy Glass Blue, Eva O, and Wedding Party in June/July 1998. Right now
    they are finishing up Legend II and heading over to Germany for a tour.

    I took 3 rolls of pictures at the SM shows. I should have them developed
    by Friday... :)

    Yup. Indeed a pro-life lyric...though very subtley hidden if your not of
    that persuasion. I think GC did a good job to sarcastically point their
    ideas out...

    I listen to a variety of stuff, depending on how bad my day has been. But there are two songs that are guaranteed to pick me up and put me in a better mood, no matter how bad a day I've had. They are "Battery" and "Master of Puppets" from Master of Puppets. I don't know why these songs get me back into a mood where I can deal with life again. I guess because it's one of the great speed/thrash/whatever metal albums of all time. But they never, ever fail.

    >From: The Digital Man <cmerlo@uvm-gen.emba.uvm.edu> > >The first, from 1974 to 1978 (Rush to Hemispheres) is considered the >"Science Fiction" era, also the most progressive. You'll find most of >Rush's epic songs here, including "2112," "Fountain of Lamneth," and >"Cygnus X-1."

    I normally understand there to be the four periods of the band, delimited by the live albums. You certainly can make the argument that "Fly By Night" essentially carries out a flow of albums that carries to "Hemispheres," but you've gotta treat the first album as a special case. It's blues-rock, basically, without the sci-fi, albeit with some awfully good playing. Alex really shines on that first record. I think your system is tenable, but I'll go for the period you talk about being, in essence, half of one and all of another.

    >The second era, from 1980 to 1989 (Permanent Waves to Presto, give or >take) is their Pop/Electronic era, where you're going to find the radio >singles, tunza keyboards, and the album that Alex almost quit because of >(Power Windows). There are, however, those killer prog tunes that snuck >through ("Natural Science," "The Camera Eye," etc.)

    "Permanent Waves" to "PRESTO?" No way...."Signals" was a pretty radical break for the band, and, by the time you get to "Presto," you're talking about a radically different sound. You've gotta break it up somewhere in there. The two songs you mention are the ONLY songs from that whole period that clock in more than a couple of ticks over six minutes. They certainly paired down for "Permanent Waves," which is why I'm okay with your first period. There IS a difference between "Hemispheres" and "Permanent Waves." There's a bigger one between "Moving Pictures" and "Signals."

    >The third era, from 1991 to present (Roll The Bones-ish to Test For Echo) >is Rush as a Rock Band. Guitar, bass, drums, and only a hint of keys make >these the heaviest, most guitar-oriented albums they've done since >Hemispheres. Must-owns if you like rock and roll.

    Yeah. I'll go for that. They've stripped down the sound a lot over the last three records. Am I the only one, though, who thinks that "Test For Echo" is a little LESS guitar-oriented than "Counterparts." The last album has a noisier mix, but a little less in the guitar department, I'd say.

    it was written about (and to) someone who was sueing the band. about what, i do not know.

    about "eating meat" and such (a la paul's teachings in 1 cor 8), i don't think that was what KX was refering to.

    Apologies for calling you a hypocrite like that, Itchy. (A public apology on the jam? What the hell am I thinking? I must be a wuss!)

    I attempted to draw up a novel of information to provide to you all about my opinions on the subject and how people are subject to homosexuality through their own choice, but it doesn't make any difference and no one here is going to see it.

    Anyone who has posted info about the subject as I have seen it have been partially correct at least to some extent. Who knows? There really are no facts to support either side of the subject so people might as well quit asking for them. Everyone is biologically different. We all have different reasons for doing the things we do and feeling the way we feel. We are all composed of the same matter externally but internally we are all a conglomeration of our upbringing and our surroundings. Everything we know and feel that was once commonplace and absolute in our lives was breached the moment we stepped in here. It doesn't matter if you are black or white, homosexual or heterosexual. It doesn't matter what God you worship or which flag you salute. We're a calamity of opinions as people from different lands in different parts of the world vie to uphold their beliefs and state their opinions in a world where feelings and ideas change at a moments whim.

    Dammit, that's why I love this place. We are all so different, but we all have a common bond. Where it is enjoyable to argue the merits of talented performers (and those not-so-talented), it is completely unwarranted and rather shameful to discuss a group of people who are no different inside than the rest of us. Nothing good is going to come out of it. Nobody is going to ever have the "right" answer. I say we stop this arguement now before someone really gets hurt. A public forum like this is most definitely not the appropriate place for discussion of such a personal nature.

    Unfortunately, the failure to release ancient hereditary traits is actually the cause for all disruption in our daily lives, and we were all lost and corrupted many years ago, although we can't understand until the light of truth has been shone in our eyes. Many years of primitive thoughts stemming from the moment our ancestors swam from the gene pool causing us to undress Smurfette with our eyes as children. The only way to relieve the pain was to watch the Cosby show, but that all ended after Mr. Huxtable started making jigglers backstage with a young aspiring actress, and now we are left with no means of repentance. We are all plunged into a world of melancholy with no means to take back that which wrought our happiness. The cynicism of our selves and the doubts that are passed down from generation to generation become hindrances as mankind plummets into insanity and the great black void that is our universe slowly entices us toward its center where we shall acheive everlasting peace at last. And at the last moment as we cling tenaciously to our lives, striving for that last breath before we sink to the bottom, we will aspire to be what we always wished and all will look at one another in a new light until the last breath expires and we succumb to the flood with the knowledge that we were all alike in our differences.
