Hail people...
I've just seen one of the most amazing and meaningful concert
experiences of my life. I just saw SAVATAGE play their 1st EVER
acoustic show in the US!! Words cannot describe how deep their music
touches me...only a handful of bands can do that. To see them in a
little hole-in-the-wall bar that fits 75 people is just awesome
considering that a month earlier I saw them in front of 20,000 people at
Wacken :)
The stage was so small it was ridiculous (probably about 10 feet by 30
feet) but it wasnt that bad cuz they all sat on benches. Chris was
totally acoustic while Al played clean without distortion. I found out
that it was also being broadcast LIVE on the radio!?!?
ARGGHHHHHHH....nobody told me earlier :(((( But..I did see that the
band was videotaping it..so hopefully it will pop up in the trading
circles soon.
Here's the setlist:
The Ocean (intro)
Welcome
Jesus Saves (sounded amazing w/ a different structure!)
Chance <-- with the harmonies of course!!!
Silk And Steel (Al and Chris shredding it up)
Stare Into The Sun
Not What You See
--Now this next part literally had me soaring. The rest of the band
left the stage leaving Jon alone with his piano. Just amazing.....
**Jon's Piano Medley**
Mentally Yours (intro only)
Tonight He Grins Again
A Little Too Far
New York City Don't Mean Nothing
If I Go Away
Heal My Soul
.and of course....Believe (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Handful Of Rain
Sleep (Jon and Zak trading off vocals)
**ENCORE** (This part they did electric!)
Al's guitar solo (it was part of WoM I believe)
The Wake of Magellan (this song just f*ckin' rules!!!!!!!!)
Nothing Going On
** 2nd Encore
Dead Winter Dead
As you can see no "Mountain King" :(..but all the "Streets" material
more than made up for it! One thing I love about this band is that they
truly look like they are having FUN on stage. Laughing, smiling
(despite the horrible conditions) and making fun of each other....it was
refreshing to see that. Also got an awesome picture of me and the
Mountain King himself....Jon Oliva! (hopefully the roadie didnt chop
our heads off like some other ppl I know >:) Jon was very surprised
when I told him I'd seen them a month earlier at the Wacken festival in
Germany.
anyway...the show ruled and I feel like kicking myself at not seeing
them every chance I get (they play in NY quite often).
Still the orchestra plays.... (ALL HAIL CRISS OLIVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
cheers,
Carlo (Fates)

The German release date was August 17th with a Dutch release
the following week. I have no idea about the rest of Europe.
According to Derek, the Platypus CD will be out on Velvel in
the US in January 1999. I've asked someone at Velvel to keep
me posted... Details on UACM as soon as they're available...

Message-ID: <000b01bde4d2$4e4ee3e0$db07aace@default>
For those of you who trade CD-R media, is there a trading standard when it
comes to the brand and type of media? Incidentally, if you're interested in
trading I'll be up and running shortly, so drop me a private email or wait
until I put a list together on the web for your convenience..
In other news, the new Superior album is fantastic; a very strong, evolved
second effort that retains enough of the "Behind" sound to sate fans of the
first album while exploring plenty of new ground. Bravo! In addition,
while I am not an expert in this area, the production quality is excellent;
the CD just sounds great. Highly recommended.

Well HMV in Manchester and Oxford Street have shedloads of the Platypus
disk - and even a few Chroma Key! Still no Angra though :-((

Excellent, that should sell a few copies, but do they have LTE?
BTW the UK release date for Angra's Fireworks was "set for" 7 September
according to the press blurb I received. Haven't had an update on that but
I'll make enquiries.

Why did you write Marillion that way more than once? Of course, it
can't be a typo to be consistently written like that.
I'm very curious.

Hi again!
I have yet another question for all of you tech/gear heads out there.
I'm going to be replacing the bridge pickup in my Ibanez RG550 (stock
Ibanez, *blech*) and am asking for reccomendations for a high output
humbucker. I'm talking about something to give my mesa a hand with
increasing how heavy the distortion is. Any of you people out there who
would be in the know, I'd really appreciate it.

<<Much more mature than your

i 'm sorry but stretching a simple (and BTW really stupid) melody to an
amazing length of almost an hour is really something.
Had to get rid of that.
APSOG is where the music stops and where Jim M. is completely gone stupid.
So much of that album is filler. three tracks worth listening, the rest??
whats that?
wheres the metal in it?
wasnt FW a metal band- they were. Awaken the Guardian ranges in my fave ten
alltime albums. so dont even think about flaming me -this here just
represents my opinion (BTW im getting bored of telling this every time when
i post, seems like its time to leave here...)
and ive listened to APSOG for about 30 times every time the complete thing,
but it is just disappointing. and if i ever get the chance to talk to Jim
ill ask him who the f*** sh*t in his brain. i understand (since i am
musician as well) that you can get bored playing the same old songs over and
over again. but some of his interviews just made me cry. i couldnt believe
it s the same human being once giving us masterpieces like Epitaph.
huhuhuhhuuuuu! :-(.........
Parallels has ingenious songwriting, not APSOG, IMO. they ve come to a point
where its totally senseless what they are doing and i wonder if Jim ever
listens to APSOG at home. but maybe there will come the day when he gets
bored of playing APSOG as well and we get real music again from the (better,
which means fifteen years earlier) world's (almost) leading Prog Metal band.
wooooaaaaah i feel so much better. and i love telling this here, cos evryone
skips my posts, hehehe.
thanks for those reading, i dont care bout your opinions. (isnt this list
such a better place since all have gone nuts here? 8-)

This is very true. Actual real story here, no DTC of course:
Rising Sun, Maryland, where the KKK is in the phone book, there's a junker
on every yard, and a girl named Lurleen in every house. A few months ago.
A trailer park. Two rival groups, we'll use the word "clans" without the
conehead connotations here, for reasons undisclosed went to war with each
other. Half the trailerpark went at the other half armed with assorted
garden tools. You know, the sort of thing with which peasants attacked
Frankenstein's castle. But this wasn't some simple dispute about
reincarnating the dead, it was an all out medieval bloodbath. Tons of
people were injured, many of them seriously. And here's the kicker. One
guy was beheaded...with a SHOVEL!! No kidding.
And to think this happened not more than an hour from my house...
We now return you to your regularly scheduled bickering.

Yes. I have one. The cover of the CD says, in big letters at the
top, "Steve Vai's Flexable", and at the bottom says, "Contains 4 bonus
tracks from 'Flex-Able Leftovers.'" The info on the back is as
follows: "(p)(c)1984 & 1988 Akashic Records, a Division of Light
Without Heat, P.O. Box 69394, L.A., Ca. 90069. Manufactured &
Distributed by Important Record Distributors, Inc." And, of course,
"Made in the U.S.A." The UPC number on the back is 88561-0777-2, and
the catalog number on the spine is UR777-2.
And, just to satisfy your curiosity, the track listing is as follows:
FLEX (side 1): Little Green Men, Viv Woman, Lovers Are Crazy,
Salamanders in the Sun, The Boy/Girl Song. ABLE (side 2): The
Attitude Song, Call It Sleep, Junkie, Bill's Private Parts, Next Stop
Earth, There's Something Dead In Here. LEFTOVERS (bonus tracks): So
Happy, Bledsoe Bluvd, Burnin' Down The Mountain, Chronic Insomnia.
And no, I don't remember where I got it from. Sorry.
