    The end of the world is upon us all.

    Maddy just showed me an ad in our school paper for a class (which is in the course catalog, so it's legit) in music appreciation. This class differs from the music appreciation class I took last semester, in content, not in course number (meaning, I don't think I could benefit from taking this one, since I got an A in the other one). This course focuses on Progressive and Fusion music! The description mentioned "The music of Queensryche, Dream Theater, ELP, Pat Metheny" etc!!! Can you believe this? In as state school!!! I could SHOOT myself for taking Music220 when I did!

    I'll take a shot at this one. Al Pitrelli and Sherinian were in Alice Cooper's touring band in the early/mid '90's. I also remember reading something about both guys being in a band called Ethyl Mertz but I have not been able to confirm this yet.

    Hey, folks. I would have to give a hearty thumbs-up to this disc! First-rate packaging, and impressive music, this is the best Zak-era 'Tage yet, IMO. I am not going to get into a detailed review, but this is a must-have disc for anyone who has been a fan of Savatage over the years.

    The Snob has spoken.

    No, the galaxy is usually all ages... just do like I do... don't bring an id, grow some facial hair and go "I didn't bring my ID" and stare em down and see what they say... they always let me in... but then, I got the big goatee...

    It definately is... IMO its 'tages best album to date..from the ones i have of course. ( I only own : streets,edge of thorns, hanful of rain, DWD, and TWOm ) and im not too fond of streets because of jon's singin ( i love his singing on DWD and TWOM but i cant seem to get into his singing on streets) ...still.. i feel this is their best to date or at least from the ones ive heard.. also does the packaging from the US version vary? I have yet to receive the US version.. but the European one had cool pages and stuff like that.. (although since it was tooo thick.. the little clasps in the jewel box fucked up the liner book

    still THIS IS A MUST GET

    Hi,

    The list is growing like a big quickly growing thing. Here's the new list:

    St Louis DT Jammers: Seth Hatlelid (and girlfriend and 3 friends) <srhatlel@artsci.wustl.edu> Dale R. Newberry <drnewb@spiff.net> Tom Cox (and girlfriend) <lexine@rollanet.org> NuGgeTMaN (and 5 or so friends) <emoeglin@wezl.org> Mark Kemp <Sunnyde25@aol.com> alex fraser <fraser@stolaf.edu> James Cooley <beanvet@accessus.net> Dave Gonzales <dgonzale@blue.weeg.uiowa.edu>

    I want to let you guys know that I'm out of town for the next three days, so I won't post an update until monday morning, but do keep those names coming.

    Related questions: Is anyone still interested in making a DT. banner for the show?

    (for Mike Portnoy) Are any of the guys planning on doing any clinics while in town? Last year I saw John P. and Derek at McMurray music and I'd like to meet the guys again.

    (for Mike again) Feel like stopping in for a brew at Fitz's? ;-)

    Have a good one guys, Seth

    I thought this at first too, but look carefully at the bottom of one of the columns and you'll see the song "Silver Shine" (I think that's the title...I don't have the disc with me so I could be completely wrong about the title).

    Date: Thu, 9 Apr 1998 17:46:35 -0500 From: Seth Hatlelid <srhatlel@artsci.wustl.edu> To: ytsejam@ax.com Subject: Eden, Mustaine, Friedman, and Kenny G. Message-ID: <l03130305b152fca5f319@[128.252.105.105]>

    Hi,

    I'm a VERY happy Eden user and would be quite happy to recommend the stuff to anyone thinking about playing bass.

    The Nemesis stuff is out. Basically the Nemesis line is a series of smaller, more portable combo amps than the head/cabinet unit. Personally I think that the cabs sound better, but they can be a real pain in the ass to haul around and set up. (I can't fit my entire amp set-up in my honda Civic). The Nemesis are much more affordable than cabs and they sound much better than many of the other combo amps. If you are looking for a great bass amp and you can afford to wait a while save up the cash for an Eden cab system. If you want a cab system bnut don't want to pay that much buy an Eden head and the new Peavey bass cabs (I'm not kidding, these things are amazing. I'd rate the cabs as 95% as good as the Edens at 50% of the price) and go with those. If you still don't want a cab system, get a Nemesis.

    The only problem with Eden stuff is that it really spoils you. I HATE playing through any other amps. (why do the vast majority of bass amps sound like you are beating your B string on a chain link fence?-especially Hartke-blech). Seriously, I cringe every time I practice through my friends Fender bass amp-it is just soooo shril compared to the Eden.

    Mustaine- I once heard his singing voice compared to a man on the receiving end of a vacume-cleaner enema! Personally, I like his voice, it is quite unique and immediately stamps the music with "Warning-kick ass music by Megadeth ahead!". For those who have seen Megadeth live, you know that, even with his Donald Duck/cartman/Vacume enema voice-no one can command an audience's attention like the Man when he's speaking. Very charismatic guy onstage.

    Friedman and Kenny G. These guys are twins seperated at birth-think about it. Same pubic hair on their heads-same "Bruce Willis trademark" facial scruff, same goofy grins, and same pinched chins. Brothers, it has to be.

    Hey Jammers, I haven't read or posted to the jam in forever, being that I get the jam at my aol account, and that I have been at school. I was just really moved by a Richard Riviera's comment about Tower Records. After he found LTE at Tower Records he proclaimed what a store. Well I too saw LTE at Tower, but I also saw it down the street at Newbury Comics, a small Boston based chain, for a dollar less. When I returned to Tower a few weeks later to browse, I noticed that although they had a LTE divider, there were no CD's. I walked down the street to Newbury Comics and there LTE was. They were having a 3 dollar off sale. So I got the CD for 4 dollars cheaper than I saw it at Tower. Tower Records, a huge chain, gets tons of business, while those in the know shop at Newbury Comics. Just my 2 cents for relatively small business. mark
