I think that most people on this list generally like this album.The point
people are making is just that it is not as good as DT'd other albums (at
least IMO and many other people's opinions).Besides, it's just that it's no
fun to have a list like this just to say all the time that DT is great! We
gotta be picky with SOMETHING! lol I for one still rate that album a solid B
or B+
>I personally love FII as I do with ever DT release. Sure, some songs are

I agree. I love the album as well, but just not as much as the others. It's
all relative. If we compared FII to albums by many other bands, then I'm
pretty sure most of us would take FII over the other particular album anyday.
And it DOES have a ton of merit. Personally, I love Peruvian Skies, LITS, and
Hell's Kitchen. Also, in hindsight I am very glad that they did make that
album as it is a change up from their other albums with its own feel to it.

You metion some intersting things here. As I mentioned in another post, I do
like this album. However, a couple of the songs were written to be "hits" it
seems. And I connect this to your comment, "if they had more control, I'm
sure it would've
been a little less song-oriented." That's an intersting comment.I remember
reading an interview in Guitar World with JP when FII came out and he said
about it that "we've gotten better at writing songs." Now, when somebody says
that, it scares the hell out of me.I;ve heard it before. Becuase, it seems
like when somone says "we've gotten better at writing songs" it really means
"we think we wrote some hits." Not just with JP saying that but with other
bands as well. Anyone else notice that?

The quote may very well've been an excuse, who knows. They've always been
good song-writers (and by that I mean writing traditional V-C-V-C-B-C, catchy
songs and not masturbatory shred-fests). They've always been good
song-writers, but they've chosen a different path than that. So while all of
the previous albums had FII-like songs, there were only a few of them.
Whereas FII has only a few IAW-like songs and is mostly full of traditional,
catchy rock/metal. I mean take a listen to songs like Status Seeker, Another
Day, To Live Forever, The Silent Man, Space-Dye Vest, etc., which are all
songs that focus more on song writing than virtuoso instrumentation. And all
these songs are good songs, IMO. So like I say, they've always been good at
that. But with FII, they took that route and said "It was a challenge to
write for the songs" and "we've become better song-writers." I don't believe
that. i think theyve always had that song-writing ability in them and have
used it before, successfully. So i do think the band pressured them to write
a hit album. but when the band took some heat for FII, they werent gonna so
"oh the label made us do it." that'd be career suicide.

Just thought I'd add a little to the LTE advertising
thread... almost everyone I know loves them. Many
people who don't like prog can get into LTE b/c
there's no vocals. I know jazz fans, punk fans, funk
fans, thrash metal fans, and even classical fans who
dig LTE. With a little advertising, I think LTE could
(have, now that they're no longer with us) sold a LOT
more. Well all my friends are buying, that's the best
I can do :)

Well, as much as I like Borders (for books anyway), the one closest to
me SUCKS (well, their music section, I mean). They carry almost NOTHING
as far as metal and prog type stuff (the best place around here is a
local chain - Harmony House, and Media Play also is quite good). BTW,
Borders is always BY FAR the most expensive too, the stuff that's 13.99
and 14.99 at Media Play and others is ALWAYS 16.99 at Borders.

Punk fans???? LTE (and prog in general) is everything that punk isn't!
Either you have some very openminded punk friends, or you really need to
explain them what punk is...
Furthermore, I don't think it's so weird that people who like classical
music may appreciate some LTE. Technical, complex and freaky: same with
classical (often at least)...

They played the full thing up to the classical piano solo (I got the
mp3s of the concert from LITS), while the song was shortened
in Nuremberg and in Munich - they went right into the big guitar/
keyboard duel part after about 50 seconds of the tune.

Hi DT fans !!
First of all let me introduce myself ....... my name is Edward, 21 yrs
and I've been listening to DT for the last year and a half. Since then
they have become my favourite band without any doubt ! I play guitar.
I would like to ask a question. Lately I've downloaded a bootleg mp3 -
Metallica's Damage Inc. played by DT. Can anyone tell me who's that

Hello again, everyone!
After about a year I decided to get back on the list, so here I am.
With a new E-adress. (yeah! finally a decent pop3-account)
As to frettles bassplaying, in my opinion, the best way to deal with the
intonation is to play frettless on a very regular basis. When you play
frettless only occasionally, you will keep having problems with your
intonation. It's all a matter of getting used to the positioning of your
left hand in order to play in tune all the time.
About four years ago I switched to the frettless as my main instrument. In
the beginning, I really did not know how to play in tune. I just tried to
use the frettless as often as possible. After a while (about 3 years) I
started to feel more comfortable on it. At the moment, the fretted bass is
even giving me more troubles because IMO it has great limitations in the
expression of the notes you play. This is something you only discover after
playing frettless for a longer period of time and I'm not just talking about
sliding notes without hearing frett-noise.
It is certainly true that a fretted bass is more appropriate for certain
styles of music where a more direct, punchy sound is wanted. In Dream
Theater, for instance. If John Myung would play frettles on all of the
songs, you would certainly miss the raw edge sound of a fretted bass.
Another issue:
What ever happened with the DT-Internet Coverband project wich was started
last year?
Has some recording taken place?
If not, let's put something like that up again.
Please mail me back privately if you are one of the persons who were in this
last year.
Bye for now,
Jorrit

Just an interesting thing I saw last night. I was channel surfing in a
vain attempt to find anything remotely interesting on the TV when i came
across Seal live at the Hard Rock on VH1. I was going to go on past it
(I don't dislike Seal, but I'm not a huge fan, either) until I noticed he
had Tony Levin on bass. Very cool. Actually, his entire band seemed to
be pretty competent.
A little question. I'm on a little bit familiar with Steve Bailey,
having seen he and Victor Wooten do a bass clinic a little over a year
ago. What kind of stuff has he done? Is he mostly a session musician,
or has he recorded solo/band stuff? I've heard the name before, and saw
him at the clinic (very cool person, both of them).
I've also been interested in checking out some Larry Graham. I'm really
inot a lot of 70's funk and have been wanting to check him out for some
time. Any advice on where to start?

I just noticed that Dream Theater is mentioned on the Dutch Progressive Rock
Page, whose website is at www.dprp.vuurwerk.nl. They have a page entitled
"Counting Out Time" in which they have been reviewing landmark progressive
music albums starting from 1967 and finishing with 1999 by the end of the
year.
For 1992, they have chosen DT's "Images and Words" as that year's landmark
album. Yeehaw!!! Maybe we'll pick up some new DT fans.

Hi
Today, I was listening to all Spock's Beard albums in row (from "The Light" to
"Day For Night") and I must say that whith each album they become a little bit less
prog and a bit more commercial. Don't get me wrong, I love SB and they are still an
awesome band but "The Light" & "Beware Of Darkness" are more progressive then
"Kindness Of Strangers" and "Day For Night" IMO of course.
Day For night is still a great album with incredible songs like "Day For Night"
"Gibberish", "Crack The Big Sky" & the beautiful "Distance To The Sun".
The Epic "Healing Colors Of The Sun" is also a killer songs, alldow I would love
if they hadn't divided into 6 short parts insted of an epic 20 min track like
"Time Has Come", "Flow" or "The Wather".
As for songs like "Skin", "The Gipsy" or "Can't Get It Wrong", I think they are
good songs but nothing special. Too low for Spock's Beard standarts IMO.
Any other oppinions ?
Btw, If you like Prog Rock should check out IQ & ARENA from UK.
These bands are really great. Marillion fans should love both of them.

What's bad about having an epic piece divided into several tracks you
can access directly? If they had put indexes all over The Light or The
Water, would the songs be worse just because you could jump right
to the Senor Valasco part instead of fast-forwarding? I guess not!

Yup. You should listen to The Gypsy again, the ending is totally wicked
and totally up to "Beard Standards" IMO. And it's a great live-tune, too! :)

Nothing commercial about Day For Night. Not only is The Healing Colors of
Sound one of their best songs, but even their "commercial" sounding songs
aren't commercial. I mean really, how many typical radio listeners would like
Skin? Not many judging by it's failure as a single.
Go check out Neal Morse's solo album, the best "commercial" sounding album

Matej,
The Bass Extremes book is put together well. It is split up into a lesson section where Steve and Vic discuss and demonstrate the techniques used in each song, and then the song section where each song is transcribed in full, with a few exceptions; vamp sections, intro solo figures, and solo accompaniments are not always scored in full, i.e. the transcriber was feeling *lazy*! I agree with what you say about Steve being the harmonic-god;his solo feature"Moonridge" kills! If you don't already have his instructional books, they are a must! He's twice the teacher as he is a player. If you want to check out Pino Palladino it will entail sitting through some pretty bad brit-pop schlock; he played on a number of albums by Paul Young and Phil Collins through the 80's and early 90's. Some quick song references: Young's "Everytime You Go Away" and Collins' "I Wish it Would Rain Down". Stellar Bassist! I'd try and check him out on the web to get a more detailed discography; I read one in Bass Player several years ago but can't remember alot of the stuff he did.

Hi there,
I'm subscribed to Jamline, which is a Jamiroquai mailing list. Currently, some people were complaining about the lack of airplay Jamiroquai gets on the radio and MTV. I replied that there are a lot of other bands that get even less airplay even though they are pretty big; I mentioned Dream Theater as an example. Anyway, some people from California said that Dream Theater is extremely popular over there, and get a lot of airplay as well. Can this be true?? After reading all about all our problems with radio-stations, recently, I just can't imagine this is true...

That's what I hate about some classical things - if I want to get to a certain movement, depending on what recording it is and what the sound editor wanted, it could be all one track. What a bitch.

To tell the truth, I thought it made a hell of a lot more sense to break the two opening tracks in OIALT. I had thought about re-burning ACOS onto a different CD and making it separate tracks, but I didn't REALLY see the point of that, since I usually listen to it all the way through. But sometimes, I REALLY want to hear Another World, since it's probably my favorite song from ACOS (why don't they EVER do that one live?).

Dude, if you flush it RIGHT away, then you don't have to worry. It's when you leave it sitting there for days like my brother does when you have to clean it soon. :)
/me is sure that you didn't need to hear all that about his brother, but it pretty sure that he doesn't care anyway. ;)

Well, it was me that started the project and that was maintainig the mailing list. The project didn't succeed due to the lack of communication between the parts involved, despite the plain availability of resources.
In fact, some people were almost done writing/recording their stuff, while others were always saying they'd record something, but did nothing.
I guess that the Internet community that produces free software is slightly more focused on their objectives, as we've had some excellent software (the Linux kernel, for instance) developed across the whole world.
