    I can't believe no one mentioned 'Islands in the Stream' by Fates.
    That's a relatively depressing tune, with intense performances
    all the way around. Lyrically, very artistic and dramatic.

    I forgot all about that one. "Disintegration" is definately a classic.
    Since we're on this category, Depeche Mode "Violator" is another "best
    of genre".

    Sade has some great mood songs. Her songs usually are pretty "strings"
    synth heavy, similar to some of Kevin Moore's playing.

    And since we have heard Elton John's name thrown around so much (since
    Anna Lee), I might add that Elton had some good somber songs. One of
    my favorites was "I've Seen That Movie Too" on the Goodbye Yellow
    Brick Road album. A great sad song. Maybe DS can play that one for us...

    << I'm sitting here listening to Stream of Consciousness and I realized that
     every time I hear Petrucci screw-up, it's usually on an easy part. He
     screws up pretty bad during the keyboard solo in BMS, and again during the
     first heavy part in PMU. Don't get me wrong, the guy is still my fave
     guitarist, but I find it a little odd. I don't think I've heard him
     screw up on the parts requiring great technical proficiency, just simple
     rhythms. Comments and opinions? >>

    Well, I don't own Stream of Consciousness, but I'm aware of the phenomenon
    you're referring to. It seems that when I'm playing faster and/or more
    rythmically complex stuff, the transition to simpler passages can be quite
    nervewracking, causing me to second guess myself rythmically. It's really kind
    of funny when it's not in a live performance context. Anyone agree?

    Fuck, I must live in a hole (oh, yah, I do), cuz I've never really heard
    that many drum solos. Here's my picks anyway:
    --Mike Portnoy, for the fucked up By Demons Be Driven drum solo in the
    middle of the Ytsejam off of the Live in Tokyo vid.
    --Neil Peart for that awesome all tweaked out solo during the Test for Echo
    tour. Gotta love the way he incorporates his little xylophone next to him.
    --Neil Peart again for the solo during YYZ on the Exit Stage Left album.
    --Joel Taylor's kickass solo during Yanni's Tribute World tour.
    --My friend Matt just dickin' around on his drumset one day waiting for his
    girlfriend to show up.
    Honorable mention: Alex Van Halen during the Balance tour.

    As for favorite keyboard solos: (I know, I'm late on this one)
    --Ming Freeman at the end of Waltz in 7/8 (Yanni: Tribute)
    --Yanni, Nostalgia (Live at the Acropolis)
    --Bradley Joseph, (Rapture, the whole album)
    --Kevin Moore, Take the Time
    --Derek Sherinian, Deep in Heaven
    --Andrew Miller, Vicious Cycle (Subtlerage)
    --David Paich, Africa, Rosanna (Toto)

    I can't think of any bass solos I've heard that kicked my ass. I guess the
    closest thing I can put is Ric Fierabracci's kickass solos during Yanni's
    Live at the Acropolis and Tribute albums. Then there's Geddy's YYZ stuff.
    Needless to say, I still love Cliff Burton's Anasthesia. Ever notice how
    alot of bass players try soloing and make themselves look like lamers?
    Say.... Jason Newstead and Michael Anthony? They'd be better off leaving
    it out of the show. :)

    And there's so many guitar solos I love I'm not going there. I'd fill up a
    whole freakin' digest.

    Dammit, I don't want to sell this, but I am now $200 away from opening
    my store, and I can almost taste it!!

    I have a Dreambill, signed by the entire band. (The sloppy signature on
    the side looks more like Derek's than Kevin's, but with something like
    this, I ain't picky.) Dreambill, for those who didn't know, was a
    one-of-a-kind thing that was given out at the 3/4/93 Limelight show in
    New York City, the one where they first played ACOS publicly. It's
    framed and such... it has a bio of the band inside, comparing them to
    such bands as Rush, Metallica, and Yes. Many of you may have seen this
    very Dreambill on my web page where I had it posted for a time. The guys
    in the band were VERY kind to me when I asked them to sign it, it was
    the first time I had ever met them (Tucson '94) and they were as
    surprised to see it as I was to meet them! :)

    First reasonable offer takes it. I have NO IDEA what something like this
    is worth to a DT fan. To me, it's priceless... but so is my child's
    future. (Melissa is due in January). Given the choice between my own son
    or daughter and a DT keepsake, I'm afraid the baby wins out. :)

    I never realized this in that context before. When I'm learning a song, I always screw up a lot in the beginning, but end up in "lock" mode. My band has been playing the same set for a while now that I never mess up the easy stuff. I know when I have to really be on the ball, and I still make some mistakes on the hard stuff, mostly because I like to push myself and bring that "am I gonna pull this off" element into it. But the easy stuff always goes smooth.

    Actually after listening to SoC again, I think the mistake I mentioned in PMU is not a mistake, rather of misalignment of different RA sources made to patch up a certain part. Anyways, I guess my brain just works differently. Ciao.

    In Ytse Jam 4102 Shai Yallen replied to someone else noting that if you want to learn classical or jazz keyboard playing styles, you can find a teacher pretty easily. But if you want to play progressive rock/metal, for example, you have to buy CD's and figure it all out on your own.

    Well, I would have to agree. I'll be in my senior year at the "mighty" Berklee College of Music this fall, and it's a pain in the ass being into metal there. I mean, it's cool because it is possible to find ways to apply all the jazz stuff and everything else they teach to my kind of music (prog. rock and metal, heavy metal, hard rock), but most of it has to be done on my own time. The students are pretty divided more or less equally(although I would say more jazz than metal/rock), I guess, but the faculty and the courses are very geared towards jazz, and that really pisses me off. I mean, if you're paying $24K per year, then I suppose it's good to be taught/introduced to other kinds of music to become a rounded player, as far as at least being aware of the other styles there are. But I hate the way a lot of teachers look down upon metal and rock there. They think jazz should be lived and breathed (not all of them, but at least 3/4's). Jazz is great and all, I like some of it, but it's no better or worse than any other kind of music. Everybody likes their music just as much as we like whatever we might listen to. If I had my way, I'd be taking all kinds of classes that show various ways to blend the keyboards with guitar and bass (metal and rock styles-and not the cheesy shit that most Berklee jazz people think rock and metal is)...they have this to some extent, but not really. I mean, it's cool that I have to figure it all out for the sake that when I finally get my own recognized keyboard style, I can be proud of the fact that I did all the work myself...but it slows a guy down. Just my opinion. There's a lot that can be done with keyboards besides just playing chords, rhythm figures, and solos.

    right now, id say "merman". its about her child she miscarried (as most of her new album is) but its like a lullaby, and its the most sad thing ive heard in a long time. "me and a gun" is pretty heavy duty too. also, china, winter, baker baker, silent all these years, marianne.......i could go on and on.

    as far as other sad (for me meaning "making me misty eyed, melancholy, or depressed") songs to me, id say:

    space dye vest - DT ice - sarah mclachlan fragile - sting killing words - QR, particularly the mtv unplugged version talk show host - radiohead sorry seems to be the hardest word - elton john the part of APSOG (cant remember the number) "where you are, i am" that whole section - Fates the show must go on - queen down in a hole - alice in chains timothy - dada

    Hmmm, I'm gonna say Winter. I'm not really sure if I would call it sad, but definately very emotionally stirring in the direction opposite to 'happy' anyway.

    Also one song I find truly sad in a 'glacial' kind of way - Celestial Haze by Lemur Voice. Not really a song is it? More of an interludey thing but ssssssad nevertheless.

    And Dante's Prayer by Loreena McKennit from Book Of Secrets is a bit of tear-jerker too.

    True, apparently alot people who saw the film who were previously familiar with the story of William Wallace and other relevent episodes in british/scottish history were appauled at how historically inaccurate the film was.

    Honestly I couldn't give a shit - it was still a bloody good flick.

    > Personally, it's in my top five faves of all time. :)

    Hear, hear.

    My grandfather, as well as being shocked at the regular graphic violence, was disgusted in this film because of it's historical inaccuracy. "There was never any evidence of him being married!" he exclaimed. "But the film depicted him being married in secret, how could it have been documented by historians?", I replied. He didn't answer after that. Forget the whinges, Braveheart is a filth movie - accurate or inaccurate.

    A couple more sad songs: "Alone You Breathe," by Savatage "Comfortably Numb" and "Wish You Were Here," by Pink Floyd

    Went to Ozz Fest last Sat. in St. Louis. Met Pat Griffin (cool guy). Dug Megadeth, Life of Agony, and Ozzy. Biggest disappointment was Tool. Their music sounded good, but I found them boring as far as their presentation went. I guess I had high expectations. Limp Bizkit, on the other hand knew how to work the crowd, but I didn't care for their music. Snot was okay. Incubus sounds better on their album, though they did put some energy into their set. Soulfly sounded good, but I was chilling out at the time, so I wasn't into it as much as I would've liked. I'm not a big Motorhead fan, but it was good seeing Lemmy up there doing what he does best.
