Hahahahahaaaa! I thought *I* was the only one who did this to people!
I've probably done this about 10 different times to my friends. I used
to have a speaker running into the bathroom, so when an unsuspecting
friend is on the pot, I let 'em have it with Devin's scream!
By the way, it's the intro to the song "Survive" on Sex & Religion.
Truly one of the greatest screams ever recorded by man. Possibly only
outshined by Devin's out-tro scream on Ocean Machine's Biomech.
Now THAT thing is disturbing!!!
Good to see people using the powers of Devin's screams for mischief!
Keep it up!

I'll take the credit for that one, thank you. I've been ragging on them for the
last year about keeping more prog on hand. I recommended they acquire
more copies of LTE, AOI, Fates, Royal Hunt, Superior and the full discography
of Dream Theater. Plus, I had them stock up on the 5YIALT, LiT & APSoG videos.
Oh, and Platypus, too. :)
Get this! I talked the purchasing agent for the Woodbury, MN. (St. Paul suburb)
Best Buy into accuiring copies the APSoG video, But the dork refuses to pick up a
selection of Fates Warning CD's and give them a card. WTF? Go figure...

Message-ID: <19993661844741@ix.netcom.com>
My band recently played a battle of the bands contest at the bassist and I's high school.
We are a 3 peice instrumental and played Paradigm Shift (the section in JP's OiaL solo)
and The Darkest Eve (which was an original). I must say the reaction from the crowd was
astounding. Every metalhead in the place came up to say how much they thought we
rocked. Personal gloating aside, this was progressive music! Another example of how
the media is stiffiling this genre from becoming as popular as it should be. Unfortunately,
the judges were obviously the same people that run the radio stations, as none of the
heavy bands (us included) won anything - the hippie bands did. :-P
The fact is, there are plenty potential fans for bands like Angra and Symphony X, and
Im sure guys like DT and Fates could be a lot more popular than they are now.
Unfortunately, the media can't see this and ignore it. Spread the prog as much as you can!

Message-ID: <3.0.32.19990306232907.0072605c@ozemail.com.au>
Hey y'all
Regarding MP3s, and the transfer to Minidisc thereof... the previous post
regarding bitrate was on the right track...
Minidisc stores about one fifth the amount of data as an audio CD, so to
fit 74 minutes onto one disc, lossy compression is used. The compression
method uses "perceptual coding" the same idea behind the MP3 compression,
although they are not compatible...
The original version of the compression algorithm was considered not
terribly musical, and many people were able to easily hear the
difference... over the few years since it's release, it's been refined to
the point that it sounds quite good. In tests less people could hear the
difference, and of those that could, many actually said the MD sounded
slightly better!
Anyway... The only drawback I can see with putting an MP3 onto a minidisc,
is that it's kind of like getting a jpeg image, decompressing it, then
saving it AGAIN as a jpeg... you're applying lossy compression to something
that has already lost information... so you may hear some degradation.
I guess the best method is just suck it and see...
Hope this helps!
Nick

Rob,
Nope, you missed a few. In order, they are:
The Great Spectacular - This was the VERY first LP they produced,
released on their independant label back in 1975. They recently
re-released it.
Freefall - Lots of BlueGrass type stuff, pretty darn kewl.
What If - Outstanding release, and after owning it on vinyl for about 17
years I just recently figured out what is on the front cover. ;o)
Night Of The Living Dregs - One side is live (From the Montreaux Jazz
Fest), this includes The Bash, one of the SICKEST tunes ever recorded!
Live At Sigma Sound - Recently released KBFH show
Dregs Of The Earth - Twiggs Approved and I'm Freaking Out! are 2 of the
outstanding tracks on this one.
Unsung Heroes - Includes "Day 444", which was the inspiration for the LP
title. It was a tune written for the Iranian hostages (Do you remember
that from 1980? GOD I'm old...). Also includes the classic Cruise
Control.
Industry Standard - A weak attempt to go mainstream at the urging of
their record company. This release includes a few vocal tracks
(previously all instrumental), as well as a Steve Morse/Steve Howe duet.
Bring 'Em Back Alive - A great live disc from their 1992 reunion tour,
packed with all their best tracks.
Full Circle - I don't really listen to this one much, a bit weak IMHO.
There's also a few compilations that have been released, which are good
starting points. If you want a good sampler, pick up the "Divided We
Stand/The Best Of The Dregs" one for beginners.

I'm not a lesbian, but a few more posts like this combined with
whoever posted the "have you ever had sex and every single fiber of your
being was concentrated in your dick till you just explode" thing a while
ago (if you don't know what i'm tlaking about, be thankful) could
seriously further any inclinations I might have.
But as if if that wasn't enough:

DAMN YOU, Korg.
DT content? I still think Derek is queer as a three dollar bill, not in
the slang term meaning homosexual, but in the original context. I saw
him at the King's X show out here, and that guy was giving off some
weird vibes.

Okay. We get it. Everybody is sexually liberated. Men want to screw Tori
Amos. Women want to screw Tori Amos. Couples want to screw Tori Amos.
Many people content in all walks of life are bound together by that
single unifying thread: the innate cosmic desire to get freaky with her.
But if I see another one-line post saying something like "Hey! Me too!
I'd be in that line" I'm going to subscribe them to Freddy Barbarosa's
Top 8000 Mailing List. Where does the Tor-ster fall on that list, Freddy
B?
Besides, we all know the line forms behind Derek. Jesus! (Is he in line?
