Hi all!
My name is Dushko, 23, from Balkan country named Macedonia. I study
computer science, 4-th year (1.5 - 2 more to go).
Huge DT fan naturally. :-)
Question:
ANYONE bought Magna Carta's Tribute to Yes? How about some comments on
it?
Well, that's all, just a short introduction.
See ya, Dushko

Mike and James answered 27 questions in exactly 1:07. :)
For those who missed it, an edited no bullshit version is
available on UACM... If you want the complete transcript,
check out RockOnline's website. Thanks go out to Calvin6S
for providing all the questions and answers. :)

August 25th...

Moderated IRC chats is where it's at... Last year we did two
chats with Fish (ex-Marillion) on the #Freaks channel. People
had to submit their names 15-30 minutes before the chat. The
list of names was used to give everyone a turn to ask their
question LIVE, with only the person asking a question being
allowed to talk. It was a hell to organize and coordinate,
but the chats went VERY smooth.
I'm currently talking with Steve Hogarth (Marillion) about
doing a similar chat with him in #Freaks, to promote his
solo album "Ice Cream Genius". :)

After two days of continuous listening, I have to say that, for me,
this is the best album of 98 so far.Like APSoG, this is a one song with
five parts.YouŽll have to hear it yourself.Buy it! NOW!

Some of my faves:
- Ytsejam keys solo
That chord strike just before the key solo explodes is simply AWESOME!
And how can someone not love those rock bending notes Kev does here!
The guitar solo right after this is quite weird, but the keys are
straight rockin'.
- Take The Time keys solo
Kev rocks the house again! :-) Most powerful key solo I ever heard in my
life.
- Steve Vai - Bangkok/Fire Garden Suite (piano solo)
Great, great piece! What a playing! And then, I opened the CD booklet
and saw that Vai's playing it!!! Get outta here! :-)
If you don't know the stuff, FIND IT! :-)
- Dream Theater - Intro of Love Lies Bleeding/Funeral...
Very deep, emotional stuff
- Brand X - every single key note ;-)

Hey there,
Someone, Matt I believe, mentioned that DT played the
intro to Met.pt.1 at the Providence RI show some years
back. This is true as I was there for my first of many DT
shows to come. When they opened with LTL, I nearly took a
heart attack! That song instantly became my favorite at
that time.
It wasn't until I got to the show that I found out that it
was being broadcast on the radio.
Does anyone have a good quality boot of this show?
Possibly on CD? (Bogie?). I'd love to have that show, my
first, on CD. If anyone can help, please contact me.
LTL worked great as an opener, I'd like to see them kick
off a show with that again.
Later,
Dave

Right on dude!!!!!! You nailed it right on the head! It's nice to know that all those headaches I give myself trying to mess with odd times and weird phrasings are actually getting noticed and appreciated!
This is the kind of stuff I talk about at my clinics. You can also find alot of this "fun with numbers" and groove twisting stuff in my drum parts to The Mirror, ACOS, Metropolis, The Ones Who Help To Set The Sun, Lines in the Sand, Scarred & Hell's Kitchen.
Great post and it's nice to see some REAL DT content here. (sorry Derek!) : )

Although I do believe mister Portnoy overplays sometimes, there are some things that seperate him from ordinary metal drummers:
A. He can build a mood through a song. Listen to the solos in Trial of Tears. This is the kind of drumming I like: he starts with little and ends playing like a spider... or in Paradigm Shift after the first Rudess solo.
B. He never takes the easy way around.
C. He replies to posts on the list.
Way to go Mike,

Woo Hoo .... Platypus is being released this morning in Europe (according to UACM) ...
Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can buy it online ... there's no chance in the world that any store in Ireland would be able to get hold of it.

I went to one of the local new/used CD stores (Manifest disks and tapes) today with my trusty list of "to check out" CDs and scored several really good buys. I picked up Ron Thal "Hermit" for $4, Dio "Holy Diver" for $2.50, Royal Hunt "Paradox" was $5, Rush "Power Windows" for $7, James Murphy "Convergence" for $5, Galactic Cowboys "Space in Your Face" for $3 !! Than they gave me a Ozzfest promo with Soulfly, Coal Chamber, Life of Agony, Fear Factory, Spineshank, any several others for free !! I walked out of there with 7 CDs for the low price of only $27.83. Most of these sound good so far. Just a couple of weeks ago, I found Galactic Cowboys self titled, Lemur Voice "Insights", and Altura "Mercy" all used for about $4 each and they all ROCK!!
Moral: Write down any band you see listed in the JAM and find them in a used store (where you can possibly listen to it first) or look for samples on the net. You'll be surprised to find out how much good music really _IS_ out there !!

Hi all
here is some interesting news for those of you who feel compelled to watch MTV (as opposed to just ignoring it, as all sensible people do).
Justa a quickie today (as the bishop said to the actress).
