    << Now, can I ask a stupid question? :D
     
     What the hell does an arpeggiator do? hehehehe. I know what an arpeggio
     is, so I'm curious to know what the hell the arpeggiator does an how it
     works. Just a lazy man's toy? :) >>
     
    The simplest way I can put it is like this. Some arpeggiators are different.
     What some are do are like this: you can hold down a C note and it will
    repeat that C note depending on the tempo and whether you want it in 8th
    notes or whatever. You can then add notes to that and it will just cycle
    these notes repeatedly. Like if you hold down middle C then hit E (while
    still holding down C) then hit G, it will do this in a continuous loop -
    C-E-G-C-E-G-C-E-G
    so you can get creative with that.
    Some arpeggiators you can tell it what key you are in and you can hit one
    note and it will play the arpeggio of that from the note you just hit. It is
    totally customizable too so you can tell it how long and how many notes you
    want it to play.
    and, one of the best ways to think of an "arpeggio" is to think of playing a
    scale but playing every other note. So a chord is basically an arpeggio but
    all the notes are played at the same time. This isn't the only deffinition
    though, i'm just being very brief.
    I hope that answers your question.
    Oh, and arpeggiators can be used for many cool things besides just
    "cheating." Like those cool techno beats you hear on dance music and such.

    Hey, Canadian Jammers, I've got a question for y'all. My roommate and I
    want to go to Vancouver at the end of the summer (August 31 or Sept. 1) to
    see Edwin, I Mother Earth's former singer, but we can't find any info about
    buying tickets or exact location, just the date of the show. If anyone
    could point us in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks a bunch!

    DT didn't really seem into it. Mike wasn't his usual energetic self. James
    *was* his usual energetic self, unfortunately. ;) JP seemed like he was
    interacting with the crowd a little more than usual. I didn't really even
    notice Jordan until his solo. All and all, I wouldn't say it was the best
    performance I've ever seen from them, but looking back on it, the setlist was
    incredible. And the new oscilatting fans in the Factory made it a little more
    enjoyable. spocks went over pretty well i thought. a lot of people knew them
    anyway.

    Kristi

    I had a great time tonight, and I'm sorry that by not feeling well I put a damper over everyone's head. I'm really glad I went though.

    I was listening to this Phil Collins CD, and the song (I know you love it too) "A Groovy Kind Of Love" really stood out. In all honestly, it made me think pretty heavily about you; and it's pretty much how I feel about you (in a nutshell). Honestly, it made me cry. I care a lot about you, and you are (and will always be) very special to me. I don't want to play it out, but I DO love you Kristi. You make mefeel like no body ever has; and it's such a wonderful feeling. I've never felt so strongly about anybody before. It is true, that "When I'm feeling Blue, I Take a look at you, and then I'm not so blue".

    In 100% honesty, that's why I looked so "bad" in the front room. I was trying not to cry, I guess you didn't notice me looking you right in the eyes throughout that whole song.

    I'm sorry if this scares you, but I wanted you to know.

    Your Friend, Adam

    When I'm feeling blue, all I have to do Is take a look at you, then I'm not so blue When you're close to me, I can feel your heartbeat I can hear you breathing near my ear Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love

    Anytime you want to you can turn me onto Anything you want to, anytime at all When I kiss your lips, ooh I start to shiver Can't control the quivering inside Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love, oh

    When I'm feeling blue, all I have to do Is take a look at you, then I'm not so blue When I'm in your arms, nothing seems to matter My whole world could shatter, I don't care Wouldn't you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love We got a groovy kind of love We got a groovy kind of love, oh We got a groovy kind of love

    Okay, I don't think any of us expected see this when we opened our mailbox tonight. But hey, it is pretty cool that someone would say this...

    I have to wonder if this was deliberately or accidentaly sent to the jam...

    This is a potential spoiler... I'm going to discuss two songs from the concert..,. so don't read if you don't want to know. :)

    New Millenium/Caught in a Web.... seemed like CiaW was really the songs known as Caught in Alice's Nine Inch Tool Garden... you know... CiaW 96 or whatever it's called... the eastern sounding version. Maybe it was just flipping back from NM and CiaW that has me confused, but it sounded like CiANITG to me.

    Oh, and I feel bad for Spock's Beard! They're equipment was screwed up the whole set...

    Yeah, I can't imagine how embarassed Mr. Yarter's going to feel when he realizes his error, but, dude, that rocked. :) Groovy Kind of Love is a sweet tune. :) -- KorgX3 met a girl who turned him into Jell-O once. Weird feeling. Sad story. I was such a pussy back then. :p

    FWIW, DH and I will be attending that show. At the February show, we kept looking for folks in 'jam t-shirts, but never saw any. :(

    CIANITG or CIAW 96 was the basis for New Millenium. A lot of the new ideas they came up with for CIAW 96 ended up being used in new Millenium. Thus, they decided to combine the two. And it rocked big time, IMO

    All I can say about the show last night...wow. The Beard played almost an hour and a half and DT for at least two hours, including a kick-ass surprise encore. (what they played was a suprise, not the fact that there was an encore) I saw my friend Alex (whom I met about a year ago at the Summer Performance Program at Berklee) there, and wanted to get an e-mail address from him or something. I waited outside the venue, but couldn't find him. Do any of you know him, perchance? He's about 5' 8" or so, is of slight build, and has slightly-longer-than-standard-length brown hair. Send me an e-mail if you do and have some contact information. I'm not on the jam currently, so I won't see any posts to the list.

    hehe can you go to a barber and say "i'd like it cut to standard length please"? that would be awesome. i think ISO needs to get off its ass and start defining standards for more day-to-day things like hair length and waist-size-to-pants-size ratio. that last one would be awesome. instead of Levis Baggy Jeans, they could start making Levis ISO9821+ Jeans. then old people could yell "get standard jeans, you damn kids!" come to think of it, this new standardization could help old people with all the things they yell at kids, including size of pants, length of hair, and even effort required to perform everyday tasks. "back when i was your age, we had to walk four times the standard distance to get to school!" awesome. i can see it now. <runs off to write letter to ISO> moo.

    OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!!! :-)

    This was my 6th time seeing DT and it was by far THE best I've seen them. Everyone was is top form, especially LaBrie.

    You MUST see them on this leg of the tour. If you're low on cash, consider selling crack for a few weeks :^) (hell...after last night's show, I might do that just so I can afford a trip up the caost to see them at the Roseland....is it sold out yet?)
