    Hi.

    I bought Nightwish's "Wishmaster" last Friday and totally worship
    it. I dare say it's their best, all the songs are absolutely brilliant. I'd
    say that the band has grown (and Tarja's grown more beautiful), the
    music is maybe less "strato" than on "Oceanborn", very powerful
    and beautiful. The Finnish version of the CD has a 3D cover that
    works very well. You can find three full songs (RealAudio) here
    ("make a wish"):

    At the two UK shows I saw, they had TVs sitting on the front of the stage,
    and much larger screens suspended from the ceiling behind MP's drunkit. I
    didn't measure them, though, so they may not be what you're talking about.

    In Europe they had tiny video cameras on Jordan's keyboard, and in front
    of JP, and looking over MP's left shoulder. Sounds just like you describe.
    Were there more of them in Japan?

    I think they also did this in Europe, although I wasn't sure if it was a
    tape of James, or if he was singing offstage.

    Drum machine, surely? In Europe they had the drum machine playing along as
    on the album, but Mike joined in on real drums towards the end to heavy it
    up a bit. I thought this was awesome.

    I bet Mike didn't say "Fuckin' A, Manchester!" or "Fuckin' A, London!" in
    Japan. :-P

    I have a boot from napster (oh no!) called " Caught in Alice's Nine Inch Tool Garden" which is a live version of Caught in a Web obviously recorded before SFAM. In the beginning of the tune, I hear the opening riff from Home when the whole band kicks in. I haven't listened to a lot of tool, so I only recognized it as the Home lick. Also on the boot, before James sings, Petrucci plays the guitar line from New Millenium. I just thought that they incorporated these ideas into other songs. If anyone has this version, let me know what you think.

    Definitely attitude. It was that intangible shit inside his heart/soul more than any technical wizardry or chops spewage, that drew me most to his playing. I saw SRV close out Newport Jazz Festival's last day one year (go figure, then again I've seen B.B. King there as well ;) and he brought the house down, of course.

    RIP, Stevie Ray.

    If you want to check out a cool tune that one Berklee-is-no-guarantee-guitarist Jon Finn had some fun with, there's a tune called "If Stevie Ray Vaughan went to Berklee and Studied Jazz" at:

    http://www.jonfinn.com/srv28.ra http://www.jonfinn.com/srv56.ra

    Given that Jon is influenced by both Steve Morse as well as Jeff Beck, just to name a few, there's clearly plenty of that blues influence in his arsenal from guys that have been doing since before SRV was on the scene.

    I at one time had the cassette, and it did have an extra song, "Dream Dancer"....so the statement below is correct....I now have the Dream Dancer 12" single on LP....cool song

    << AFAIK Partha, there was a version of their first album with the song "Dream Dancer" on it. I *think* it was on the cassette version, but I'm not positive. The tune also appeared on the B-Side of the "Lonely" CD-Single. I don't think there were any other extra tracks associated with the first album other than that one. You may want to poke around their official website (www.crimsonglory.com) to see if you can find out any other info. >>

    Well, it's not EXACTLY a drum machine. It's Jordan's keyboard, acting as a sequencer. I remember reading about this somewhere... They didn't want Mike playing for the reason that it was such a simple beat that they wanted something like the keyboard playing it.

    Well, I would reccommend Dalis Dilemna. Very influenced by DT but they rock. I just bought Day 4 Night from Spocks Beard, and this is a band I have a feeling I am gonna get into big time. Put it this way, I listened to the disc 3 times in a row yesterday. If you like Transatlantic, you will love this band.

    Kurt NP-Metallica Creeping Death (Woodstock 99 CD i got for 8 bucks yesterday)

    Which reminds me, Blockbuster video is phasing out their music sections, a shitload of stuff is 9.99. I got the double woodstock CD and the double live CD from DMB for 8 bucks a piece. (employee discount)

    I will make a comment about woodstock, this may seem shocking. Listening to veryone live, Korn of all people put on the most energetic perfomance. Metallica played the longest, but Korn had some energy.

    Get it NOW, because my computer will be going down on Thursday since I'll be going home from school. I'll probably find somewhere to host it, but as of right now I don't have any place to do it. So get it soon. :)

    Oh, and you may not notice the hum NOW, but in the quiet parts it's quite noticeable. Plus, you'd notice it IMMEDIATELY if it ever went AWAY.

    "No operetic vocals" is a little vague. Do you like old Queensryche? Do you like Dream Theater? Or do you only want Pantera-style vocals? Let's assume that you can stand a little "good" operetic style in the vocalist.

    (As for Shadow Gallery, many people don't like those vocals. You're not alone there.)

    Try these:

    Pain of Salvation - Entropia (Enough said.)

    Symphony X - The Divine Wings of Tragedy (Neo-classical prog metal. Great vocals, great composition, shredding guitar.)

    Spock's Beard - The Light (Not metal, more like classic prog rock.)

    Vanden Plas - The God Thing (Very much like Awake-era Dream Theater)

    Conception - Flow (A little less progressive, shorter songs, but good metal.).

    Nope. Neither the slow opening section of "Home" nor the fast opening riff are taken from Metropolis I. The slow part at the beginning of it is most definitely a Tool reference. If you hear it (thanks Eric P Metze), you will DEFINITELY see what I mean. What's the URL for that file again?

    One of the similarites between Tool and DT is writing songs which "grow" or build to some sort of climax. Sometimes it's very subtle. You'll find that Tool does this just as much as DT. One of the reasons I like both bands.

    > Aenima came out in 1996, SFAM in 1999. Did DT rip off the riff?

    Does Howdy Doody have a wooden ass?

    Is the Pope a catholic?

    I'm sure the guys in DT would be the first to admit that the beginning of Home is a "Tool" riff. Of course the rest of the song is ripped from Metropolis Pt. 1. ;o)

    I thought the only Met2k shows were West Palm, Orlando, Ybor(Tampa), and here in Jax. Although the West Palm show venue was supposedly at the Pompano Beach Amphitheater. Pompano is near Miami, but I never heard of that venue there or in West Palm Beach. West Palm and Pompano are like 75 miles apart. I used to live down south and saw shows just about everywhere. Anyone that can clarify? Any other Jammers at the Jax show besides me? Better yet ,any of the afore mentioned folks that just happened to record the show? Even if it's total sh-t, I'd like a copy. By the way, with all the Nightwish talk, I searched (unmentionable word rhymes with mapster) and d/l'd a few songs. AWESOME!!!!!!! On payday, I'm gonna have to go to my local music store and do me some special orderin'!! I'm on this female singer kick all of the sudden. I didn't even know these bands existed before the Jam. Also, in the chick vocalist thread a jam or two back did anyone mention Flowing Tears? Between them, The Gathering, Lacuna Coil, Iced Earth, Blind Guardian,and Strapping Young Lad, I'm thinking Century is THE label.

    I made a blunder-once again.

    I know I said I downloaded the Miami show, but me, being the goofy nuts I am, meant to write Orlando. I got it from Lines In The Sand. Sorry for all the confusion!

    About Mike's signature line of cymbals.

    I'm not a drummer, (well...meaning I don't play drums in a band...but I can play..just not incredibly well), and I absolutely LOVE these cymbals.

    My drummer, Jay, has all 6 of the cymbals, the 3 stax and the 3 splashes. Ever since he got these, his sound has filled out so much more. He uses them in just about every song. They work well in everything. The only stax I could see that would recieve some damage would be the Low Stax, which is a 10' splash and a 12' Kang. I doubt it would crack the edge, but the way it's set up, it just may. The other two stax wouldn't get a dent because there is a bottom lip on the tops and bottoms, (like sticking two china's back to back), so it's basically the same thing as keeping them the normal way. So far, the only gripe I've noticed about the splashes, are that they mark really easily. My drummer had them for a day and they had stick marks everywhere on them. It's too bad these cymbals don't come in a brilliant finish...(Unless you steal them from Mike's set :-) ) Get them all!!! Jay is considering placing another Low Stax on the other side of his set, so he can have one on each side...(he's in competition with Mike on who can have the largest set...although I'm sure Bozzio wins that one...)

    Warm Regards, Andy

He's the first jazz guitarist I ever REALLY got into (well, Mike Stern, but he's more fusion-y), possibly because he wanks a lot. ;) But seriously, this guy's technique is unreal ... I'd recommend downloading some clips from "Like That". I hear he also has an instructional video out there somewhere.

    >An example of "mistake" would >be "Carved in Stone" by Shadow Gallery, THAT was a mistake!

    I respect your opinion here, but for some reason I always feel the need to put in a good word for SG. Yes, Mike Baker's vocals often make my skin crawl and even occasionally cause my stomach to do backflips, but if you pretend he isn't there, and you ignore the GODAWFUL guitar sound (too tinny and weak, even on Tyranny), the MUSIC (which I believe is usually what matters ;) is very well done. And yes, they sound VERY MUCH like DT, but in my very humble opinion, they don't do a bad job of sounding that way. If you haven't used the CD as a frisbee or beer coaster yet, I recommend giving it another shot ... just try to listen "around" the vocals, and you might find something you like.

    Glad to see someone else discovering Tool. As for the similarities between FSaT and Home, I wouldn't be surprised if that was done consciously by the band, and that doesn't bother me at all. Sometimes you pay tribute to your influences in very obvious ways ... listen to the last few seconds of DoE, and hear the tip-of-the-hat to Rush ("Free Will"). DT are one of those bands who have enough of an "original" sound and collective creativity that they can "borrow" things like this from other artists and use them to create something entirely different. For the first month or so after I bought SFAM, I heard the Tool influence in "Home", but since then, I haven't thought anything of it. It's actually become one of my favorite DT songs.

    HAHAHAHAHA. Yeah, right.

    "some mistakes" ... haha, that's too funny. No offense to the real balkan talents ... (I thought Croatia and Turkey rocked hard, (always cool guitar arrangements) not to mention our own swedish metal master Roger Pontare :))
