    Hi,

    what happened with that tribute album? All I've heard it was released,
    but never heard a review or anything... I downloaded that 0.04 microsec
    mp3 from Energie site, some girl singed YNM, that's all... Anyone having
    bigger samples of it or the album itself?

    Cheers,
    Bungle

    CDs could not make casette tapes obsolete, since you could not record on to
    a cd (originally) -- CDs did, however, make vinyl records obsolete, except
    in fringe circles, such as super-high-end analog gear, and the
    club/dance/dj end.

    MP3 will not replace CDs since the sound quality is not as good, and it's
    not a medium so much as an encoding. You can't really hand something that
    is a definitivie "mp3" to a friend, it still requires another transmission
    medium, such as a floppy, burned CD or ethernet/modem connection. There's
    nothing to stop someone from making a CD boom box that plays .mp3 files off
    of a CD. The two technologies are unrelated.

    I won't go into why the record "industry" fears the mp3 "industry" -- we
    should all know that by now. The MP3 "Industry" (if it can be called that)
    is still really in its first stages. It's far too early to start decrying
    the death of anything just yet.

    I agree that I can't see MP3 taking over the market. Maybe it will make up
    a small niche, like say MiniDisc, but I beleive it is still a "hacker's"
    medium. And when MP3 completely goes mainstream, the "hackers" will come up
    with something new.

    What I do think MP3, and the like, will do is keep the recording industry on
    it's toes, by forcing them to deliver us a better product, and who knows,
    maybe a cheaper one too!!

    I actually read in interesting article in Rolling Stone on "the mp3 war".
    It was about the possibility of mp3 eventually replacing CD's, and had
    some information about mp3.com going public (stocks), as well as Alanis
    Morrisette's huge mp3.com shareholding.

    Anyway, the article said that the artists themselves have, for the most
    part, no objection to the distribution of music over the net in an mp3
    type format. They hope someday to make it marketable, and many artists
    see these formats as a way to regain control of their music from record
    labels, and their monopoly of how music is distributed.

    Anyone interested should check out the article. It's in the Rolling Stone
    with Nicole Kidman on the front holding a hat over her bare bosoms. If
    you can't find it, I guess I could type up a copy of it for those who want
    to read it, if asked nicely...

    As you all are I was a big Extreme-head. i own Prono, 3 sides, and waiting
    for the punchline. I was watching a VH1 special on hair bands, and that
    song "Mutha" was on there. I have always been weary of buying the first
    album, does anyone have it? Mutha seems to rock, but also seems a bit
    childish.

    As far as Siagon Kick goes, they still rule. There last studio album
    "Bastards" will be released sometime in September in Japan, and bvb will
    have it. STA seems to have promise. It was rumored they were given the
    largest signing bonus any new band has ever gotten. I can't wait for
    fall:Doubledrive, Sevendust, Megadeth, Stuck Mojo, Saigon Kick, Dream
    Theater, Queensryche all have new albums coming out! It's going to ne

    Hi all!

    Sorry for NDTC, but I'm becoming desperate because of the lack of lead
    singer. We have a competent group of musicians but what is a good band
    without a GOOD vocalist? Well, an instrumental band but... :)

    Russel Allen -type is the best that fits our band, but although you
    weren't *him*, don't hesitate to contact!

    We _almost_have_a_record_deal_ so we are serious.

    Our music can be heard at www.mp3.com/clarity

    We are located at the Middle Finland, Jyv=E4skyl=E4.

    We have very talented drummer and bassist but because their contributions
    to the band don't meet my and the guitarist's requirements, we are
    considering them to be replaced. So if you are a singer, drummer or
    bassist, contact me privately!

    Thanks,

    Subject: Iron Maiden Questions
    Message-ID: <63818990.24cf92e7@aol.com>

    Hey Gang -

    With all this talk of Maiden lately, I've been digging out all their CD's and
    taking a trip down memory lane. I wish that I could see them on this tour
    (grrr!) 'cause their set list sounds KILLER!! Anyway, I have a couple of
    questions regarding the boyz, and I hope that someone out there can help...

    1.) What was the intro the band used on the "Piece Of Mind" tour? I have
    an UNREAL boot from the tour called "Die With Your Boots On". BTW, if any
    Maiden fans have a chance to pick this one up, do so! The quality and
    performance are both top notch! Anywho, there was a symphonic type of intro
    before they burst onto the stage with "Where Eagles Dare". Having never seen
    the movie, I was wondering if the intro was the theme song for the flick
    "Where Eagles Dare".

    2.) The AMAZING intro the band used on the "Somewhere In Time" tour, I am
    pretty sure, was from the movie "Blade Runner". BTW, another killer boot to
    keep your eyes open for is called "The Greediness".... a great CD of a tour
    that for some reason has not been documented much. Anyway, the reason I know
    the intro was from Blade Runner is because I saw the movie's closing credits
    one day while flipping channels, and there was a variation on the Maiden
    intro that was playing while the credits rolled. So I bought the soundtrack
    by Vangelis. The closing theme I'd heard is included on the CD, but that's
    the closest thing to the Maiden intro that's on the CD. My question is, are
    there other pieces of music in the movie that are not included on the CD, and
    if so, and if anyone knows the exact piece of music IM used for their intro,
    where can I find a good recording of it on CD?

    While discussing the "Somewhere In Time" tour, does ANYONE out there have a
    definitive boot, either audio or video, from the tour they want to sell or
    trade? I have "The Greediness" CD, and a show from Madison WI on CD, I
    think, and a video from Troy NY. From what I've heard, the European tour had
    a much better set list than the USA tour. They cut out songs like "Sea Of
    Madness" and "Where Eagles Dare" from the American tour. I'm dying to get my
    hands on a complete, uncut, mint recording of a show on the European tour if
    they played all that I think they did. Anyway, e-mail me if you have any
    stuff from this tour you're willing to part with or trade for.

    Thanx in advance, Jammers!! Oh yeah..... DTC? DT opened for Maiden in '92,
    and MP was at the recent NYC show! :-)

    Up the Irons!!

    I must agree. A lot of jammers seem to think that mp3
    will somehow make CDs obsolete. It would take a
    miracle from God On High himself to make that happen.
    I think record labels are more likely to be done away
    with, but the truth is even that is unlikely since
    record labels can promote the shit out of their
    artists. An mp3 cannot promote itself. It's a sort
    of Mexican standoff, really. Record labels have the
    money, mp3 has the audiences captivated. This will be
    interesting to watch, but as I stated, it's not going
    to make any immediate difference beyond thinning a lot
    of corporate bankbooks, which suits me fine since
    they're a bunch of cocksuckers anyway...

    Alright, w/o drudging up an ancient thread, Backstreet
    Boys are a big seller. That's all there is to it.
    I'm not a BSB fan and I don't think I ever will be,
    but the fact is that they're hella marketable. So MTV
    sees that and they think to themselves "Hm, now what
    videos should we play? Menudo, KC & The Sunshine Band
    or Backstreet Boys?" Common sense dictates that since
    BSB are so popular, you'd be a fool to not capatilize
    on that popularity yourself and play their videos.
    Why? B/c the public wants to see those videos. How
    do you know? B/c that's what they're buying. There
    really is no difference.

    Hey you came out ahead neway. That is one of the best movie scores EVER!
    Vangelis is awesome... as for the piece you're looking for, it might be on
    one of his other cd's.
