    Message-ID: <37C93888.4E360475@alphalink.com.au>

     I keep hearing on the radio about a band that begins with the letter S
    and I think John Maclaughlin
    is one of the members. The DJ says how they were such a great band back
    in the 70s and that they
    are a reforming or have reformed or something and then they play a song,
    and whatever that song is
    I love it.
     Anyways I was wondering if some one could tell me the name of this band
    and if they are touring or
    something, if we will see them down here in Australia.
     Also I can't seem to find any John Maclaughlin or Dixie Dregs web
    sites. Could someone please
    give me a pointer towards one.
     And finally I found LTE2 in a CD store today after all these months of
    waiting and I thought it was
    great. I must say it was very very Jordan Rudess orientated for some
    reason. Tony also gets a good
    look in, but theres not too much Portnoy or Petrucci happening. I know
    that Petrucci had a baby,
    but theres not much of Mike either. Its still great though, that Liquid
    Dreams song is a killer- one
    of those songs you wish went on forever.
     The other day when someone wrote about Paint it Black and said it
    sounded like the Doors, that
    very night I saw the video clip for the Stones version and I swear they
    looked like they were trying
    their hardest to be the Doors. Mick Jagger looked like he was trying to
    impersonate Jim.

    Why would some laught at the MP-1? It's a pretty damn nice preamp if you
    ask me. It may not
    be a Triaxis, but it was by far the best anywhere near it's price range. I
    just picked up the Line 6 Pod
    for recording, it sounds really nice, but for clean stuff i use the ADA. I
    have had mine for 10 years, and
    it still works great. I'll see if I can find my manual.

    Yeah, it is. I personally prefer Fence the Clear, but Presents of Mind
    is definitely worthy of purchase. :)

    Which reminds me..... I need to go ahead and buy the U.S. version
    (w/bonus tracks). Right know I only have the European version which I
    bought at one of their shows a while ago.

    hey asswipe, not everybody was on the Jam a year ago, you want to stop them
    from being able to speak about a topic??? Just shut your ass up and skip
    past the message if you don't want to read it. There's nothing on the FAQ
    that says not to talk about it, so it's perfectly fucking legal. You don't
    own the list....People like you piss me off more than anything, people who
    want to control every damn thing...THAT"S what disgusting....the guy asked
    a simple little LEGAL question, and asked not to get into a philosophical
    discussion about boots being good or bad. Want to control the topics...get
    your own mailing list, otherwise, shut the fuck up....

    A second free Yahoo League has opened. Stress on FREE, and fun. It'd be
    great to get it filled, which means people who jumped in on other Ytsejam
    fantasy football leagues should join here as well.

    Keep in mind this is coming from a complete non-Zappa type:

    What's the deal with Mike Keneally? I've been to his site and checked out a
    single clip from his new album, Nonkertompf, which was nothing more than a
    run-together three minute collage of every tune on the album - and there's
    like 37 of them. I liked what I heard, but it was hard to tell exactly what
    I was hearing. Can a prog-head give an opinion on it?

    I firmly believe that people should not take themselves too seriously, but
    go to Keneally's site and you get the impression that NOTHING is serious,
    which I find pretty annoying VERY quickly. But then, that's a sort of
    Zappa-ish way to be, correct?

    Hi all

    taking a few seconds off work to pass on some words of
    wisdom and to let you know of a couple of my deepest and
    most intimate desires.

    It seems that the so-called Dream Theater tribute album
    has turned out to be a Dream Theater copy album (and
    not a very good one at that). For me, a good cover
    version is not a straight copy, but rather is
    reworked in such a way that it brings out new aspects
    of the song. Two prime examples that have just come out
    are Tiamat's version of "Sympathy For The Devil" and
    Machine Head's cover of "Message In A Bottle". Both are
    far removed from the original and very well executed.

    And now for an insight into what makes me tick. There
    are two songs that I would love to hear covered by two
    very special people. The first would be Elmer J. Fudd
    of Looney Tunes cartoon fame doing David Bowie's
    "Rebel Rebel" (I can hear it now - "webel webel"). The
    second would be the Reverend Ian Paisley (the barking
    mad leader of the Irish protestants) shouting Frank
    Sinatra's classic "My Way". Does anybody have mp3s
    of these, by any chance?

    stay safe and happy listening
