    BTW anybody else think Chris Jericho did a helluva job at the recent
    PPV.
    Speaking of Jericho, someone posted something about a band Fozzy which
    Jericho is part of a few days ago. <<???>> Anyone know about this

    jericho says that fozzy is his fave band. and this is comming from the
    biggest DT fan, maybe someone should check these guys out. they can be
    found at his web site.

    and if you all think that jericho is something,
    theres another wrestler making waves (jericho's buddy) named Chris
    Benoit.
    perhaps you've all heard of him... the next bret hart and heavyweight
    champion of the world.
    probably the only wrestler that opponents are said to really think twice
    stepping in the ring with because -hey- they just dont he's faking his
    moves.
    its said that most wrestlers are warned by chris and the staff before
    hand that theyre match up is gonna hurt like hell.
    this guy actually makes wrestling look good and real!!
    check out his matches...and you dont even have to be a wrestling fan!!

    Thanks, Scott, for not posting the setlists here to the 'Jam. I'm flying
    from Atlanta to New York for the Roseland and it's going to be the first
    time in years that I'll be able to see DT without knowing exactly what
    they're going to play that night (which is incredibly annoying, but that's
    a gripe for another post. Let's just say the only reason I have 20 shows
    from the current tour is that I'm a collector, not that each show is unique
    or even interesting.)

    Everyone please remember: put *SPOILERS* in your SUBJECT LINE if you're
    going to post a setlist. Thanks!

    Someone also asked about my FTP server. Unfortunately I don't have the
    bandwidth to open the server back up, so it's down for the forseeable
    future. I'm not going to try to run a server off my SDSL connection
    because it's just not fast enough for more than a few users at a time. I
    like people to get more than 4-5k/second. Take care all...

    I don't think that's even close to the truth; it sounds more like
    metalheads in the eighties claiming that they know for a fact Modern
    Talking (then well known German disco band) are doing each other up the
    arse, or something like that. :-)

    Well, and I truly doubt that an incompetent bassist would have gotten the
    job to play on Alice Cooper's "Hey Stoopid" together with Steve Vai and Joe
    Satriani (as Sixx did on "Feed My Frankenstein"), or that Mick Mars
    would've appeared on the same album, were he a shitty axe-slinger.

    In short (and short of anything related to Dream Theater), I say the
    Megadeth fan was talking out of the corner of his mouth and the rest of the
    orifice was full of his left foot. :-) It doesn't take a virtuoso to play
    M=F6tley's material, and why would they want to hire somebody to play it fo=
    r
    them is beyond anybody. I know people who have seen the band live (in
    Roskilde last year), and they came back with dropped jaws. Yes, the
    musicianship.

    Now, to add some Dream Theater content... Only Jordan has replied to
    e-mails, and even that was before he joined the band. :-)

    Mark Knopfler's a great guitarist and can do stuff great stuff, but he's from more
    of a jazz/country background, so there's not much reason to mention him in the
    jam. Check out his stuff with Chet Atkins if you don't mind that sort of stuff.

    << With all the talk about 7-strings I just had to post :) If someone is
     looking for a Petrucci-model 7-string from Ibanez, there is one model out
     there that fits most of his specifications. Ibanez's RG7 Prestige model.
     I really can't stand the basic RG 7 guitr, but this RG is awesome. It's
     the RG model 7 string, only with a 3-piece mahogany body, flame maple top,
     wizard I neck with a bubinga strip on the back, rosewood fretboard with the
     dots set up like the JPM, gunmetal grey Lo-Pro trem with matching hardware,
     direct mounted DiMarzio pickups, 5-way selector (with one coil tap), and a
     nice touch... an ebony piece convering the front of the headstock. Overall
     one of the best damn guitars I've ever played, and sounds excellent
     recorded or live. List on it was $1899 for mine 6 months ago, and there
     were only about 50 made. I also hear Ibanez makes a model similiar with a
     piezo in the Lo-Pro and an ebony fretboard, and the price for that is about
     $3000, and they're making more than 50 of those.
    >>

    Ok, this is *kinda* right.

    "The CST also has a piezo bridge (I do believe it was
    the first PRODUCTION guitar equipped with a Double
    Edge), and that "with one coil tap" stuff is, to the
    best of my knowledge, bogus. The 5-way switch on the
    CST works just like the 5-way switch on any other
    RGx20 guitar, which is to say not quite the same as
    the JPM. The "coil tap" isto switch between teh
    magnetic and piezo p/u's

     The list on the CST was closer to $3000 and
    they only made 12 of these, no where close to 50.

    Currently Ibanez makes the 2027 (which I believe is
    the exact same guitar as the "CT"). Which is like the
    CST only w/o the flame maple top. It doesn't cost
    anywhere NEAR $3000 (the last time I was at Guitar
    Center they had one for around $1500) and it has
    "unlimited production" so they'll make them until
    people stop buying them.

    That's about it for my knowledge of these beasts, but
    you should be able to check out www.ibanez.com or
    www.ibanez.co.jp for additional info on the 2027
    "
     

    Thanks to G for the info. I'll have the EXACT info on both these guitars for
    the next Jam. (Both G and Rich are the most intense Ibanez fans of all time,
    and can tell you ANYTHING you'd like to know about them. G deals mainly with
    the RG series. Some of you may know Rich, he's Rich Harris, an Ibanez
    broker.).

    I suppose that the only person with any claim on the
    intellectual rights to 7-string guitars is George Van Eps,
    whoe custom-ordered one from Epiphone in the 1930s. That
    said, Van Eps never played "The Animal" or "Lie", though.

    That's a real disappointment with the MMs for me - I love
    that finish to death. I've even got a couple of guitars
    with it on: a crappy strat with the B&W design, and just
    ordered a custom JPM-ish (think of a Jackson Dinky with a hardtail, MM head and a Wizard neck) thing with a shades of green
    picasso). I wonder who can sue me for that, Ibanez or JP?

    Yes Star Accused of Assault

    British supergroup Yes performed at Nissan Pavilion on
    Sunday night, and apparently the group's 35-year-old
    keyboardist was not on his best behavior.

    Prince William County police say Igor Khoroshev
    sexually assaulted two female security guards working
    backstage at the concert, reports The Post's Josh
    White. A 26-year-old woman who was not identified told
    police that Khoroshev sat on her lap during a break
    and tried to put his tongue in her mouth. When she
    tried to repel his repeated advances, the musician
    sank his teeth into her neck, leaving a nasty red
    mark, she said.

    Then after the show, Khoroshev allegedly tried again
    with an unnamed 22-year-old security guard. Police
    said Khoroshev walked up to this woman, made a few
    lewd comments and squeezed her buttocks.

    Khoroshev has been charged with assault and battery
    and sexual battery, both misdemeanors. If convicted,
    he could face up to two years in prison and $5,000 in
    fines. Yes continues its U.S. tour, playing tonight in
    Virginia Beach.

    Hey, folks. I've been getting a lot of great comments and ideas from
    Jammers the last couple of days. Keep 'em coming!

    (If you don't know what I'm talking about, see
    http://miracle.burningblue.net/tapetrade. The site's up now. Yes, it
    looks plain. I don't have time to make the web site spiffy. Besides,
    it looks good in lynx. You can also finger
    tapetrade@miracle.burningblue.net for info as well.)

    After thinking about a couple of suggestions very carefully, and after
    realizing that I'm pretty much not going to be home this weekend, I've
    decided to push everything back a week. That means that categories
    will be shored up by Monday, August 8th, and that's when we will start
    accepting e-mails to join the Tape Trade.

    I hope to get a lot of people involved in this, so that we can all
    benefit that much more by hearing new stuff. And all it costs is a
    couple blank tapes or CDs and a couple bucks in postage.

    More news as I come up with it,
