    I guess this means that Opeth isn't going to play on the first four

    IIRC a number of years (3-4?) ago there was a big discussion about this
    too. MP just started with his website and the forums were a big hit. So
    a lot of people suggested that the Jam would become obsolete and that
    everyone would turn to the forums (resulting in a big discussion about
    the pros and cons of web forums vs. 'old fashioned' mailing lists,
    ironically reviving the list at that moment).

    I have to say that generally and think there's a lot more BS on both
    the DT and MP forums than there ever was here (and I've been around
    since 1997) and I concur with Jan-Michael in that when there is some
    more DT news again, we'll be back on track.

    Oh BTW now that I think of it: a number of years ago (again) some
    people were fed up with the amount of BS on the *JAM*, and another,
    moderated list was created (called Voices I think). Does that one still
    exist?

    Cheers

    Nice to see I got a reaction from the Jam, was kinda gettin worried...

    Concerning the release dates of beards album sorry people I thought it was
    out in the states on June 3rd...
    I suppose I'll give you my thoughts on this album before then (on the 1st
    July for example).

    I wonder why CD's and DVD's are usually out in Europe first (remember SFNY
    DVD) ... ? ...
    Or maybe it's just an impression.

    And my last note :
    Andrew how the f**k did you get your hand on that whole Album ?
    Are you one of the beards nephews or something ? ;)

    Just lucky, I guess. :D No, I don't go searching newsgroups or anything
    like that; I just know people, s'all.

    Hey (From Canada)

    The list is pretty quiet recently, just like our Dream Theater is about
    the new album, the web site offers no news, boring updates, no clips. So
    much secrecy, maybe we can expect Metropolis part three...just a though,
    or maybe they are planning to remake all the great hits from Abba.

    It's out there, just have to look for it. I grabbed it last night but
    haven't listened to it yet.. Will do that over the weekend.

    Metropolis 3? I didn't think of that. Now my blood is burning waiting to
    hear what they're coming up with :)
    Any idea why they would be touring BEFORE the new album comes out?

    Pierre, you live in quebec?

    I kinda think it would be nice to have a few more CDs out before they tackle
    Metropolis 3... Don't ya think ?

    As to touring before the new CD arrives -- this is a great tour for both
    bands.. QR making their comeback, and DT getting some great exposure...
    Even both bands getting great exposure to each other's audience... It's a
    win-win.

    I didn't used to care for instrumental albums when I was younger, and then a
    friend turned me on to Yngwie Malmsteen's first solo CD..
    At that point, my musical tastes changed forever. I remember gathering
    other instrumental guitarist albums such as Tony MacAlpine and that one with
    the neon shark on the cover... can't remember his name... A friend of mine
    had the entire Al Dimeola collection that I heard in the background while
    working on computer stuff... There's greatness in instrumental albums
    :)

    Want a Hot Sports Opinion? Yngwie is the best thing to happen to Derek
    Sherinian's new CD... there ya go :)

    Because i don't like instrumental albums that much.And that's why i

    Hmm, that would be really interesting. But Mike said that the new
    album will be "classic metal"-like, so I doubt a themed
    ultra-progressive thing is what they are doing. I just hope they make
    their new stuff prog enough to be interesting (I usually get bored by
    classic metal pretty quick)

    Hehe... well, that would certainly liven the list up :P Met 2 had jams
    coming out my ears :P

    As for Abba... I think they would have to get Derek back to do that..
