I just wanted to apologize for the html junk that appeared on my last
submission, my little brother has been fooling with Outlook Express and he
must have set my outgoing to mail to do that.
Thanks,
John

Hi folks, if you are a regular visitor to http://www.mikeportnoy.com
I just wanted to let you know that the server basically blew up on
us today, and we are scarmbling to get things fixed.
I am hoping for a short down-time, but things are not looking good
at this point so we could be offline for as long as 18 hours. I haven't
been able to totally assess the damage. If necessary, I'll be moving
the site to a new box, which means re-installing the CGI apps and
trying to salvage data, along with re-uploading all the files.
Just keep checking it once in a while. Thanks for your patience and
understanding.

Your best bet would be to check the official website,
http://www.dreamtheater.net a few weeks before and after the new album is
released (Oct. 26), and it will have the tour dates. Mark Breidus is in
direct contact with the band, so he will know what the tour dates are when
DT decides on where and when to play.

It has to be a tribute. Ice Age is too good and too tight to not have at
least a little influence from DT. And if they have influence from DT, they
have to know Metropolis. But you are right, I did a double take the very
first time I listened to that track all the way through. The very last
figure is exactly the same - and I haven't checked, but I would bet it is
in the same key. It sure sounds like it.
I think what Jim Ahab said on the last jam is worth repeating -
***************
For those of you priviliged enough to get an advanced promo of the new DT,
PLEASE do not ruin the surprise for everyone by listing the title, track
info, etc. I want it to be a secret until I order the CD, and I know a lot
of other people do to.
***************
Also, I would like to make two whole-hearted plugs for two CD's I got
recently...Tiles' "Presents of Mind" and J. LaBrie's new solo album,
Mullmuzzler "Keep it to yourself" Both are terrific prog albums, with
Tile's reminding me a lot of bands such as Ice Age, Superior, Pain of
Salvation. These guys are terrific, and I will be picking up their other
albums soon. Terrific diversity and talent. And the first track off of
Mullmuzzler has been in my head NONSTOP for the past three days. If it
weren't such a catchy, awesome song, I would be getting pissed off by now.
But damn, what a great album. Both of them are.

Hi, I just started reading Ytsejam after a long break from it. What's going
on with the new album? Has anybody heard the new album and is willing to
share information? Lots of people want to be secretive but this is the
internet. Is there a site on the net someone can tell me about?
Everybody, the new Yngwie is out this month and so is the new Helloween! Get
it!

Yah. Here's what the new album cover will look like:
http://www.safelink.net/washburn/dtcover.jpg
The album will be titled "La Petite Femme A La Moi"
James is singing it completely in French.
While John P. will be using the 7 string on half of the album (as usual), he
has opted to discard using a 6-string guitar altogether. All other guitar
parts are recorded via sitar, banjo, and charango.
Mike Portnoy recently purchased a discontinued Tre Cool series drumset and
recorded the album in its entirety on the 4 piece kit with 3 cymbals. When
asked why the abrupt change from his previous monster kit he only commented,
"I just wanted to show that bastard Bozzio that it can be done on a simple
set."
John Myung recorded only one song with the band, the 2 minute opus, "Get
Jiggy (Vous Les Vous?)," just so that he could be pictured with the band.
The rest of the bass parts were filled in by ex-Nirvana drummer now turned
Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl.
Jordan Rudess couldn't play all of his parts correctly so most of them were
sequenced for recording. Apparently he will not be touring with the band
due to his inability to count past four, so all of the keyboard parts will
be expected to be hummed by the fans in concert. Fans refusing to hum will
not be admitted.
Although the band claims to be producing it themselves, insiders have
revealed that it is being produced by a duo of Bob Rock and Dan Huff.
Although, both producers have allegedly ruined established bands such as
Metallica and Megadeth, they are responsible for setting their careers
ablaze in the media, allowing them to rack in millions.
All songs and lyrics were written by Burt Bacharach.
That's the scoop on the new album! It's due October 29th!

Hey !! please, don't you keep this thread to private mails. I've screwed up too my Ibanez Custom. It use to have this "buzz" sound all over the neck from the G position. (3rd. scale.) So, I decided I had to experiment with it =). Well, to make it short, the buzz sound is gone, but instead now I have the strings almost a 0.5 cms. from the neck, which I think is higher than the Everest, and isn't very helpful when I'm in the mood of playing Yngwie type stuff....hehehe....
Any recommendations ?
Yan.
