    Message-ID: <e39827ea.36dcf6ab@aol.com>

    Okay, I hope that someone going to this clinic decides to video tape it. I
    have about 4-7 JP clinics on video and I just don't get tired of them. I will
    trade my LTE video or any other video I have for a copy. If I have nothing
    you want, I'll pay for a copy. I just need to see this clinic.

    Besides, in my country we do not have Guitar Clinics. We can't afford them.
    We have Vocalist Clinics because they work for beer. Sometimes we give the
    vocalist a guitar and make a bootleg guitar clinic. I'd prefer a real guitar
    clinic, but when you are a father and your son is begging you ..... what can
    you do? It's life and death.

    What the fuck is your problem???? I just did a search for "Dream Theater"
    (in quotations) on AltaVista; The search returned 9759 hits. IMHO, that's
    a little overwhelming.
    One of the PRIMARY functions of the Jam is HELPING other DT fans.
    If you put half the effort into helping other Jammers with DT related
    questions as you do bitching..... Nuff said.

    I'd like to say thanks to the people on the jam for the last couple of years. I received some great info (along with some spam as well) but for the most part I like the list. My last day at this job is on Friday and I'm taking a week off before starting my new job. So I'll see everyone in a couple of weeks.

    thanks, Jim

    Symphony X is prog metal. Let me correct myself. Symphony X IS prog metal. Heavy, technical, wonderful production, fantasy lyrics (for the most part), WONDERFUL singer. The whole shootin' match. I'd even go so far as to say they're even more prog-metal than Dream Theater is. I hope DT's next album proves me horribly HORRIBLY

    Whoops! Sent that accidentally! Anyway, I hope DT proves me wrong on this next album with Jordan.

    Speaking of Devin - I have to agree with the recent throng of swooning. My favorite album of all time: Sex & Religion by Vai. (Devin is on vocals and is ALL OVER the album.) Ocean Machine is too beautiful for words Infinity is too weird for words. (I like it, but not as much as Ocean Machine and Sex & Religion)

    Devin certainly is a genius, and a prolific one at that!

    Later!

    P.S. Anybody else care to recommend some good scoring software and keyboard/midi-controller? Private e-mails are fine.

    <<<Unfortunately, I also decided from that CD that it wouldn't be worth <<it <<to buy any of the original albums, because I got the hunch that in <<any <<given time period, the band just emulated another band of that <<period. <<First IM, then QR, then DT, to make it inaccurately simple.

The way they play is different then that of Dream Theater's <and <just <because the vocalist voice bears some likenesses to that of Geoff <Tate's does <not make him unoriginal. Maiden!!! Well, maybe I have a different CT <than you <do. Listen to I & W from DT and Parallels from Fates...they really <don't <sound at all alike. Or FII and Inside Out...nope. Fates Warning are <an <original band. They have a great sound that you can't take away from <them by <saying its not their sound. Thank you for your time. <john

    I would say, like you'll listen, that the first to albums of Fates Warning are a lot like Iron Maiden, only more progish. On the other hand, Fates sounds not so much like Theater, it's harder, and Jim Matheos playes a simpler guitar-sound than John and Zonder, well, over the years I think I can say, without beeing an Warning-expert, that FW has become less harder, even with FII.

    But now, anybody out there really know what progressive rock is? This friend of mine is doing a school-report, and if you would e-mail me privatly <ytsejam@iname.com> or to him <tubathomas@hotmail.com>, or better yet, mail me and cc him.

    By now.

    Hey Mojoman!

    > Think about not posting stupid things like this again. 96.5% of the > people on this board think the greatest guitarist is not Jimi. Are they > wrong? No, just different. What you're posting is simply flame war > fodder. An intelligent poster doesn't do this.

    Do YOU call YOURself an intelligent poster? Think about that again! You should take the following advice: First read, then write!

    1.) I never said anything about Jimi Hendrix being THE greatest guitar player on earth. I spoke of ONE of the greatest guitar players on earth. 2.) I also know that the name of the greatest guitar player now living on this planet starts with J and ends with ohnpetrucci, but the guy I replied to was talking about great BLUES-Musicians, as far as I know. So I replied that he has forgotten Jimi Hendrix on his list. What=B4s wrong about that?

    3.) If you want to write such junkmails again, please choose another person to replyto or another mailing list!

    Christoph

    PS: REMEMBER 1.) READ 2.) WRITE !!!!!

    What, I've had it for a few years now, but I've just got to say that 'Insights' is one righteous album. Except for the passable singing it's damn near perfect. If it's no longer available, no, you can't have my copy.

    I think it's one important element in common with 'Images & Words' - it's neither too heavy nor too light, and I think, for some reason, this tends to make tempo and time sig changes very smooth and natural.

    Don't know that I want the new stuff to be harder, though. The split-second Cookie Monster vocals in the 'Solicide' clip make me nervous...

    Symphony X is by far my favorite band that I have heard about on the ytsejam (I could say "the best", but of course that's just my opinion) ;o).

    Their style is neo-classical prog metal. Think of early Yngwie Malmsteen and then extend that into todays prog-metal sound. Much better song writing and one of the best vocalists anywhere. Very long songs, lots of changes (time changes, soft to heavy passages, etc.), great playing and singing. If you like that style, you can't go wrong.
