    Now, personally, I had heard some rumours about KJLB's upcoming solo
    album, but until now, nothing as specific as the information on Magna
    Carta's website... Yet another DT-related album to look forward to (LTE2,
    new Studio Album, KJLB, we're getting spoiled next year, even more than
    this year.... AND I LOVE IT! Yippeee).

    The Chemical Wedding....oooh, what an album. I like this. Far better
    than anything Maiden's done since Bruce left. I saw him in Nottingham
    (Rock City) last week, and he was AWESOME. There's a singer who
    no-one's going to say's going downhill. Oh, sorry, this is the 'Jam,
    so I'm sure someone will. Controversial! Adrian Smith's still top

    Message-ID: <4.1.19981214085525.0093aa60@pop.usefulware.com>

    Greetings ye 'jamanoids...

    I had the pleasure of seeing Hammerfall play their last show of the U.S.
    tour last night here in Atlanta. Lots of fun, very enjoyable. I know some
    people here aren't into Hammerfall, but for those who are, here's the setlist:

    Heeding the Call
    The Metal Age
    Stronger Than All
    Steel Meets Steel
    Let the Hammer Fall
    The Dragon Lies Bleeding
    Legacy of Kings
    Child of the Damned
    Hammerfall

    The band made as if to leave after "Hammerfall", but I could tell by the
    smirk on Joacim's face that they weren't done yet. He motioned, and Oscar
    took the mike. Oscar said, "This is our last show of the tour, and we're
    having too much fun to go yet. Besides, you guys have been so cool you
    deserve one more song. We do this one once in a while, just for fun. We
    think you'll enjoy it."

    And then, a la "Nightmare Cinema", they all switched instruments. Joacim
    took Stefan's guitar, Stefan sat down behind the drums, Magnus handed his
    bass to Patrik and took Oscar's guitar, and Oscar stayed on the mike. Then
    they launched into a cover of Judas Priest's "Breakin' the Law". Very very
    cool and very amusing. Not a bad rendition at all.

    Great show and very enjoyable. The whole band is very approachable and
    friendly (Magnus, for example, was so grateful at being recognized that
    after he talked with us and signed stuff, before the show, he went back on
    the bus and returned with signature picks and promo pictures for everybody
    who wanted one). They are also very appreciative of their fans, posing for
    pics, signing autographs, and generally being the souls of courtesy.

    If Hammerfall comes anywhere near you next time they tour, and you like
    power metal, go see them. You won't regret it. :)

    ta,
    Phil

    HI Jammers.

    I want to ask you a few things.

    First of all, if you know who will play in USA between Dec.16 and Jan.26
    Because I will be there. I know the Dream Theater dates. But I wanna
    know
    if others bands will play.

    The other thing is about the JP's guitars model. If someone knows which
    is the standard JP Guitar. (The blue red and yellow, with the Tone Zone
    mics)
    I wanna buy one of those. Or maybe a Universe.

    Bye.!

    Hi Jammers.

    Someone called Sigit Prabowo talked about Scheppers, he is now
    playing in a bamd called Primal Fear, that sounds like Judas (He was
    angry because the guys from Judas didn't let him sing in JP.
    They have covered DP's Speedking in his first album. The album has a
    special edition that comes with a metal case, in the front it has a
    metal
    eagle (like in JP Screaming for vengeance), and in the back a circular
    saw like
    the Painkiller's wheels. In fact they like Judas.

    About 7-String guitars, they are used to have heavier chords like
    others says
    but they're used to be fastest in some pickings, because you can have
    louder
    tones without having to run from the fret 20 to the 5th.

    Bye.

      As he struggled to stay awake, captain Borzilleri gazed out of his
    cockpit at the inky blackness, pierced only by the lights of the
    metropolis of Houston he was approaching. Suddenly, he felt a hollow
    shudder from the bowels of the aircraft. With a glance to the silent man
    beside him, his copilot, capt. Korg ('maybe he never says anything because
    he's a keyboard,' he thought on a brief tangent), he quickly called the
    Airborne Reconnaissance And Surveilance Hotline, or A.R.A.S.H., to inquire
    about the empty tremor he had felt. What he heard didn't please him.
      Just then, all of his engines burst into flames. "Empty Tremors and lots
    of flaming; just another day aboard flight Y777SE, his navigator, the
    Japanese Eck E. Asu spouted wittily.
      Finally, the captain radioed the tower, declaring an emergency.
    "Houston, we have a problem." By a strange twist of fate, his longtime
    friend, Steven Vai, was working the tower in Houston that night.
    "Borzilleri, is that you?" Vai said. "Yup, Steve," affirmed the captain.
    "What's your status?" inquired Steve. "I'll be honest with you, I'm
    basically all fucked up, Vai," replied capt. Borzilleri. All my engines
    are out, and Eck has begun spouting his witticisms again. I think we can
    coast in though. What do you think?" Vai replied, "I think you're right.
    you're fucked. Houston Out." "Jesus Christ!" exclaimed Borzilleri. "Skadz
    is up there with you?!" said Vai. "No," said the captain. "Oh, ok. Bye."
      Knowing Vai wasn't one to make simple, unfounded guesses, capt.
    Borzilleri took his word for it and dutifully reported the news to the
    passengers. "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. You
    might have noticed the flames spouting from all four engines. Do not be
    alarmed, everything is under control. We're going to crash. Now like any
    good drama, I must deliver a clever and deep phrase in this moment of
    impending doom. Yo've spent your ntire lives learning to live; now it's
    time to learn to die. Please note the 'no smoking' and 'fasten seatbelt'
    icons are still lighted. Please do not remove your seatbelt until the
    aircraft has reached a full upright position. Thank you."

    I'm not with the "Mind Control" here (nor with my WoWoW tape), but if I remember correctly, the tape consisted of the entire broadcast...

    Unfortunately, I don't have the 5YiaL yet, but I've been told that the sound of that show was re-worked... So, it may well be possible that they've edited "Voices".

    Greetings, As for thi theory by Mads, I kind of agree. However, did Ellington, Monk, Charley Parker, or many of those older players have "formal" training? They might have, I don't know my history very well, but if they didn't, that kind of negates this theory. Those cats could play over changes better than Mads, I, or many people will ever be able to. They could also interpolate changes on a whim (Monk's famous back-cycling in his blues's.) Just thoughts. Be well. Matt B

    Clarification - Conan was holding up CEaOS, the old disc, when he introduced them (the cover of the disc he held up was more blue, while TCA is more red/orange). I love Conan's show - way better than Leno, obviously. I've been watching Conan since his show came on the air. About two years ago, NBC was considering switching Conan to 10:30 and Leno to 11:30, because Leno's ratings were plummeting and Conan's were skyrocketing. But then Leno got some advertising and apparantly people thought he was funny (how I'll never know), and the whole deal fell through the roof....

    watching hockey is good

    hearing savatage is good

    realzing you are hearing savatage while watching hockey is phenomenal

    ice skating?

    the problem with Savatage isn't exposure, per se....their music is out there, i've even heard one of the interludes from EoT on PBS at the end of some show.....the only problem is that very vey vey few realize what they are hearing is attributable to "Savatage"

    Even metal tolerant folks i know who like the TSO material just aren't able to get the hint that TSO IS Savatage, only heavier and less christmassy.....a certain logic breakdown which I for once can't friggin' understand....

    oh well

    Hey,

    ]From Si... >Okay, I agree, James has got one of the best voices I've ever heard, >but you've got to admit it...Some of the vocal mannerisms he comes up >with live are a little...how shall we say, over the top, perhaps?

    Ok I think we've overdone the KJLB bashing for a bit, it's not just this post but a great number of them recently. The guy is great live, there is a problem with taping live stuff though (actually not a problem I happen to like it, it's what makes a live show but...whatever). Musicians and singists (yes singists) tend to do stuff which is there and gone in an instant and when you're there leaping up and down and screaming UAGM at the top of your voice you don't notice and you don't care. But when the tape is played back to you (and this must be true of the band members themselves) you tend to think, "Ooooh, not sure about that drum fill" or "Woah, that note was just held a little too long" etc. And singers are especially up against it. I can honestly say though, that I find KJLB's performance on the CD(s) and Video most satisfactory....

    I thank you,

    Dave (a UK jammer - now in Alabama)

    Ps. I still think you can hear Bruce on the backing Vox of LAD (and if so...how's that done live then..?).
