I didn't read the original thread, just the replies. Anyway, I just
wanted to add that i think it's a damn shame that John Popper of Blues
Traveler didn't want to be in one of the band's music videos because he
is overweight and thought the fact that he isn't a gorgeous young stud
would adversely affect the sales of the album. Lastly, I really wished
someone had told me that it was ok to be curvy before I starved my 5'11"
tall self down to about 100 lbs a few years ago. It took me a long time
to recover.

No. Rush is probably my favorite band, except for their philosphy. Humanism. Peart is very intelligent, but I feel that he is very wrong. Thus, I perverted his lyrics to suit my own evil purposes:-) I think that probably 90% of the bands playing today subscribe to this philosophy in one form or another.
So... Can someone help me with that Rhapsody and Nightwish question? :-)

Well, I guess it's time I start reading and start saying something
About a month ago I "expierenced" slayer live/
It was the most brutal thing I have ever seen. (Never seen DT live)
King and Hanneman were in top form, fast as ever. The set list spanned the
whole bands career. they played Reign in Blood, which is what Portnoy
plays on the Awake drum solo. the speakers kept "farting: with certain
tones, other than that a hell of a show.

I understand what you mean, but I'm just curious as to what sort of etymology that could have. Unless, there's another meaning for "gusset," it refers to an accessory to armor or chain mail. So, I just don't see the metaphor.

Greetings ye 'jamanoids...
Couple of quick remarks for some new discs that arrived yesterday (haven't had time for a proper repeated listens of most of 'em because I went to a Kitaro concert yesterday after getting off work).
Vanden Plas -- The God Thing This I like very much. Intricate progressive metal with lots of time changes and well mixed, well played keys. Vocals have an interestingly childlike sound.
Nightwish -- Oceanborn I'd heard all the comments about Tarja's vocals but STILL wasn't prepared for them. You don't expect an opera singer in a metal band. They are quite interesting and the music is OUTSTANDING. Metal with strings and layers of keys.......ahhhhhhhh.
Artension -- Forces of Nature Vitalij and the boys are back! New drummer Gaalaas and bassist Onder make fine additions. I wish Vitalij would write some new patches or play something besides the 01/W, though. He can make it dance on the head of a pin, yeah, but it'd be nice to hear some new sounds.
Eldritch -- Headquake Not quite as good as "El Nino" but somewhat better than "Seeds of Rage". I break into a fresh outburst of sobbing whenever I think about Oleg Smirnoff's leaving this band. His solos, sounds, and writing are excellent on this disc.
Blind Guardian -- Somewhere Far Beyond Better than "Tales", not quite as good as "Imaginations" or "Nightfall". Some great double-bass work from Thomen and Hansi's in fine form vocalwise as always.
Conception -- The Last Sunset Finally got my own copy of this and gave my friend back his copy; my Conception collection is now complete. Not much to say about this one as Conception was still developing their sound. Two things though: 1) Roy Khan rules; and 2) Tore Ostby looks YOUNG in the band pic! Man, I thought I was looking at a Hanson member pic!
The Gathering -- Nighttime Birds Overall I think this one's quite nearly as good as "Mandylion". Anneke's voice is heavenly and the crunchy guitars and layered keys make a nice backdrop. Good stuff indeed.
ta, Phil

Hello !
I talk to the person who are responsible of that clinic and the guy said to me this :
- The clinic will be a the bar call 'LE Dagobert' because there is no place for 300 or 400 persons at the place Mike said in the mail
- It will be free and 2 weeks before the show they will give the tickets
- Also the guy said to me that the percussionnist of Celine Dion will do a clinic on may 5th at the same bar

For Nightwish info check out their website:

Beware! Server is a bit slow and info not exactly up to date, but it's a fine start (and as far as I know, the only Nightwish site around)

Yup. Dr. Demento's 20th Anniversary Collection, Disc One, track 18: Dead Puppies by Ogden Edsl (and Wahalia Blues Ensemble Mondo Bizarrio Band). Lead singer Bill Frezner wrote this gem in 1977 with Richie Thieman and William Carrey. This song is one of the most requested songs of the Dr. Demento show. I know, nobody cares but me. :) That's what I get for picking a jam at random to read.
So now I have a dilemma. I want to have a personalized license plate, but I can only use 6 letters, so YTSE JAM is out. So what do I do now? I'm thinking about YTSE JM, but who's gonna know what THAT means? All ideas via private email, please. ytsekirby@geocities.com or kirbybirdy@hotmail.com.

Hello,
Derek's webmaster here, posting with my brand spanking new, super-cool, mega-fantastic, ultra-bitchin DT email address. Check me out as I do my HappyCuzIGotsMeANewEmailAddress Dance. :)
Anyhow, it's come to my attention that there's been a rumor floating around that Big D was supposed to be playing a show in NYC with Eric Singer and Gilby Clarke on April 29. Well, I can put this question to bed by informing everyone that this is not true. Whoever made up those advertisements at the club (which I'll have to check out for myself this weekend. Unless someone can snag me a copy...) has a lot of explaining to do...
So far, the only gig Derek has scheduled is with Planet X on May 5th at the Baked Potato in Hollywood, CA. If anyone can get me some photos, Derek and I would be very grateful!
Peace!

I was wondering if does anybody has any news about HAJI'S KITCHEN ?
I know that Mike O. (erotomania) is going to setup their web site, and I also heard that Brett Stine was replaced by his brother Scott, and Eddie Ellis is no longer in the band ...Am I right ?
Any Info ? Mike ? :)
Just for the curious : Haji's Kitchen is a great band, a good definition of their sound is a mix of Alice in Chains' vocals (Jerry & Layne) with heavy guitars (7 strings) and very intricated rhythms...
Thanks
