Introduction
------------

        Welcome to YTSEJAM, the Dream Theater mailing list! This list
        is for fans of Dream Theater, and will discuss them and any
        related topics. (Related topics include other progressive
        metal bands like Fates Warning, King's X, Crimson Glory,
        Inferno, etc.)

        Topics that are considered non-related include religion, politics,
        abortion, etc. If a non-related thread lasts for too long,
        the list managers may issue a warning, followed by suspension
        or expulsion from the list.

        Also the list managers reserve the right to reject messages,
        unsubscribe users, etc. This list is paid for by the managers
        and it is a privilege, not a right, to be part of it.

NEWS

----
	(Make sure to check the date at the top of this file, since this
	part can go quickly out of date.)

If the digest number makes it look like you missed an issue, you probably haven't--listproc has a bug where the digest number sometimes increments by two instead of one.

The new Dream Theater album "Falling Into Infinity" has been released, and the band is currently on tour in the United States. Check the FAQ (see below) for tour dates.

The rumors of the Ronnie Scott's gig Video Tape (mentioned in Heavy Rock Magazine among others) seems to only be a rumor.

WWW INFO --------

The following URL is the official Dream Theater web page:

http://www.rsabbs.com/dt

(there are actually over 100 DT or Ytsejam related web pages).

SUBSCRIBING -----------

To subscribe, please send:

subscribe ytsejam name

to ytsejam-request@ax.com with a Subject of "asdf". Please don't put anything in front of the word subscribe (eg spaces, tabs, smileys).

FAQ ---

The faq (Frequently asked questions with answers) can be retrieved via email by sending:

get ytsejam dtfaq

to ytsejam-request@ax.com with a subject of "asdf".

The FAQ is currently maintained by Chris Merlo and includes background on many of the songs, answers to many historical questions, and sources for some of the samples used. Highly recommended :)

It is also available via WWW from this URL:

http://www.cs.wm.edu/~cmerlo/dtfaq.html

NOTE: It is *STRONGLY* recommended that you read the FAQ before posting to the Ytsejam for the first time. This way, we can avoid answering the same questions over and over.

The Dream Theater Unofficial Song Book includes lyrics and transcribed samples. It is available via WWW at:

http://www.goodnet.com/~mkizer/dt

or via email by sending:

get ytsejam dt.songbook

to ytsejam-request@ax.com with a subject of "asdf". (The most recent version is usually the web page.)

DIGEST FORM -----------

By default this list is a digest. That means you get individual pieces of mail bundled up into a single message. If you are in bounce mode, and would like to change to digest mode, mail:

set ytsejam mail digest

to ytsejam-request@ax.com with a subject of "asdf".

It used to be that only 1 digest a day would come out, but we've been averaging 2-4. This number will hopefully go down. UNDIGEST -------- To go into normal "bounce" mode (receive each message individually) send:

set ytsejam mail ack

to ytsejam-request@ax.com with a subject of "asdf".

PRIVACY ------- By default your subscription address is "conceal"ed--that means that others can't see your address if a "recipients ytsejam" command is sent to the server. If you would like others to see your address, send:

set ytsejam conceal no

to ytsejam-request@ax.com with a subject of "asdf".

UNSUBSCRIBING -------------

To leave the list, please send:

unsubscribe ytsejam

to ytsejam-request@ax.com with a subject of "asdf". Please don't put anything in front of the word unsubscribe (eg spaces, tabs, smileys) or the idiotic program might reject your request.

If you run into problems with the program, send email to ytsejam-owner@ax.com and a human will help you. (We're busy people--we'll try to process your request as fast as possible, but don't panic if you haven't been unsubscribed within 24 hours.)

AUTOMATIC UNSUBSCRIPTION ------------------------

I will unsubscribe you if one of the following happens:

1) I get "User Unknown" or other bounces from your site for 3 consecutive days 2) You receive a warning and ignore it.

You'll receive a warning if you spam the list with an unrelated ad (Olga, incense sticks, etc). You won't receive one for posting ads for stuff related to the list (albums, etc).

BACK ISSUES -----------

The Ytsejam archive is temporarily unavailable. Send mail to ytsejam-owner@ax.com (a human) to request back issues. An alternate solution is being worked on at this time.
