Let us make a DREAM come true...
Perhaps some of you have heard about the last big project Hollywood has
to fulfill :
The Adaption of "Lord of the Rings" to the big screen.
A 120 Million $ Movie, split into 3 parts .
And imagine * Dream Theater * would write the Music!!!
Example: Did u ever hear "Hell´s Kitchen"? Thats the perfect match for
the showdown:
everything exploding, no one can save Frodo and Sam, and suddenly they
get rescued by the eagles.
then fade to black, and with the beginning of "lines in the sand" they
fly out of the dark clouds into a bright landscape full of sunshine
(hard to explain in words, but you should see my thoughts). then
happiness everywhere etc. etc. but it´s not my task to write the book...
My Mission is to convince everyone of u to help Dream Theater get the
Job, cause you know best that they´re the right choice.
Write this to everyone you know, especially the companys and people
connected with the production, translate it in every language you speak
(starting with english, i know mine is terrible), write it in every
guestbook and to every official and inofficial DT and LOTR Homepage, and
every Usenet-Groups. Anyone could make a homepage about it? Perhaps some
one could suggest this to DT personally.
We just got around a year. To be on top of the internet album charts was
just the beginning, now let us finish this. And we did it with the
record company as well (remember last album...)
Let me know what u think about this idea and write me:
Weiss666@hotmail.com
I arranged a Counter for it at :
http://www.geocities.com/sunsetStrip/Pit/4198
just for the statistics.

Hello people,
The last few weeks I have been worked my arse off to upgrade and generally extend the music/books/films/computers review magazine I am doing on the Web, called "W3M3" (please find the URL in my .sig, below). All sections have been filled in to some extent, and I think the leap - quantitatively and qualitatively is huge. If you liked heavy music (prog, death, black, doom, hard), fiction (scifi, fantasy, horror, humour), computer games and films (or movies) then you could do a lot worse than to check it out. If you'd like to receive a message at the beginning of every month, telling you exactly which items (reviews, interviews) have been added the month before, please sign up with the W3M3 mailing list (through Listbot) about half-way down the main W3M3 menu. You are *not* currently on a W3M3 mailing list. This was just sent out to a few of my friends and three music-related mailing lists I am on. If you take no action, in all likelihood you will never hear of me again. Thanks for your time. -- \===-- Richard Karsmakers -- karies@wxs.nl -- ICQ #18645533 --===/ | "ST NEWS" Atari disk magazine - stnews.atari.org | | "World Wide Web Multi Media Magazine" -- www.scriba.org/w3m3 | | "Twilight World" magazine -- www.scriba.org/twilight | | Atari ST Scene Reunion -- www.scriba.org/stniccc2000 | | GWAR FAQ - www.gwar.net/fuq.html | | Plantiac Adoration Shrine -- home.wxs.nl/~cronos | /===--- P.O.

Hmmm... that's an interesting thought, but I doubt DT fits for the = mission. I can't connect them with the fantasy theme... I'd say BIG = misfit!
One prog artist who *really* can write LotR-inspired-style-yaknow music, = is the norwegian Bjorn Lynne. He's grown to something real good! Just to know who the hell I'm talking about, I recommend ALL of you to = check out the MP3's from his latest album, "Wizard of the Winds" (yes, = it's based on Allan Cole's novel). And it's all home-made! No fancy = contracts or super-studios here!
And read all the damn reviews on his site! I'm not the only fan! :-)

In a message dated 98-09-07 08:07:22 EDT, you write:
<< About Crossroads, the classical piece plyed in the end of the movie is Paganini`s Capricho 5, isn`t it?? >> Yeah, the end piece in crossroads is "sorta" paginini's 5th caprice. The 'real' version (for the violin) actually makes the Crossroads version seem like a walk in the park:)
===
-------------------------------------------- Well, you may think that it sounds like Paganini, and yes Paganini is very difficult-I have the tab to caprice 24-its tough, but the piece at the end of crossroads is NOT Paganini.
It is Steve's interpretation of a classical piece written by guitarist William Kanengiser entitled Reprise of a Turkish March. William also played all the other classical bits in the film. Incidentally Ry Cooder was the blues guitarist trading off with Steve Vai at the end of the film.
I hope that clarifies the issue.
Cheers
Simon

I have just got mine and I think it is ok! I do not know if I am the best approppriate person to talk about it as I am a HUGE Angra fan, but I gotta agree that the album is *different* from their previous ones. But we get used to it, I have just got the album for one day and I am already used to the songs!
On the technical part: the songs can not be the best songs to be listened as a total, but we gotta admit that the guitar solos are all killing and all the instruments on the songs are all very well played!
Just an opinion here, hey I am not a musician ... I am just a fan!
Take care-
ADRIANA
PS - Dream Theater in Brazil (again!) in the end of this month, can not wait!!!

Agreed! I'd say most everyone on this list would enjoy that album. Guitar Slinger is a notch better than The Dirty Boogie. Better guitar work on GS too

Hello jammers,
I'm wondering if there are any German, or German-speaking jammers on the list? If so, I'd love to communicate with you in German, so I can practice my Deutsch. I've been taking some courses, and would like to converse with someone fluent in that language, so I can learn more. If you speak German, please send me an email. Thanks.

Actually, someone who really writes damn good fantasy style stuff is David Arkenstone. 3 of his albums are based around short stories written by Mercedes Lackey, and he does a damn good job at it. All of his stuff is superb and he is a VERY versatile songwriter, not to mention musician. Whenever I read any good Fantasy novels (which I read all the time) I keep a heavy stock of Arkenstone in the 6 changer. :)
But then, i could do it, too. :P -- KorgX3

For the first half of Younique, I thought I was gonna have to make room in my top CDs of all time list for this disc....the second half of the disc really caught me off-guard, what with the attempts at funk, jazz, lounge, whatever, so maybe it won't climb all that high ini my final rating, but Younique definitely is fighting The Wage of Magellan and Left of Cool (Bela Fleck and FLecktones) for disc of the year in my head SO FAR!!! With DT, Rush and Fates still upcoming, it's gonna be a WARZONE (gratuitous WWF reference.....btw, Congrats and a half on the job, Josh, /me thinks that's too damn cool!)
Not sure where i put it vis a vis Behind, haven't listened to that in a while, so I have to listen to them both again and compare....first impression do have younique a step above the first album, though....ten seconds in, superior basically clubs you over the head with a wall of sound and drags you by the hair down the road to some sweet power/prog metal.....my fave track so far is probably Think, although the fifth track (names escapes at moment) is pretty cool, all the more so for being one of those half nice/half evil songs like the one Adam Sandler does in the Wedding Singer (which I watched the night before i came home to find younique in my mailbox.....Thanks, Pell!)
anyway, movies.....James already pointed out the merits of Spaceballs, which just happens to be my all time favorite flick, as well as the one which I watched last night.....until about 4:30-5 AM.....before an 8:30 class, which just happened to be my first of the year......so much for first impression, at least there were a hundred other people in the class, so I probably didn't attract any 'bad' attention....
