    Well, I have a few comments for the list.

    First, about the Ytsejam dying thing. It won't happen unless we all
    decide to make it happen. I do believe that a community that
    communicates is stronger than one that doesn't. So while I do have some
    concern about the list, I don't think it will die.

    I may turn out to be wrong (not the first time :) but I don't think
    Mike means "classic metal" in the sense that they are going to change
    the band's foundational sound. I expect to hear poly-rhythmic stuff on
    drums, the amazing keys of Jordan (keys like his are not what I would
    call "classic-metal") and Myung's fleet fingers working just as fast as
    they ever have been. Of course there is Petrucci. In my mind it will
    be JP that will dictate how "classic metal" this album will be, if at
    all. I say that because "CM" is all about guitar.

    Metropolis pt. 3??? What is left to say? I think they ended that
    storyline. I do hope to hear something as well conceived and executed
    again from DT.

    Keep the 'Jam alive

    Any other Jammers going to the show at the Hard Rock in Vegas? My wife
    and I are flying out for it. If you're going to be there, drop me a
    line. We can hook up. You can buy me supper. It'll be a blast!

    You are not mistaken. Opeth will not be joining PT for the first few
    dates in the south.

    For the rest of the dates, as far as we know and have been told
    directly, there is no definitive "opener"... and thus far no set
    schedule as to whom will "open" for whom. They will be switching around
    on a per gig/city basis and again, neither band is theoretically "The
    Headliner", so the set length should be nearly identical.

    Yeah? I like his new CD. Yngwie pulls some cool stuff, and Derek's stuff in general is pretty weirdly cool to begin with :)

    In a mind-blowing e-mail sent on the extremely historic date of 6/14/03 1:48 AM, ytsejam@torchsong.com thusly spaketh:

    I think it's quite obvious there is, but at least in the case of MP.com, it's allowed. Stupid threads like "What are you wearing?" and the latest bits of news to come out of the press end up on MP.com which for the most part would never be here. Part of it is the nature of the Forum, and part of it is simply because it was never accepted here.

    Since I'm still in list mode (as I know lots of people used to be back in the day) there would have been a lot of crap to have to sort thru had all the excess threads as those above been allowed. With a Forum, you can ignore whatever threads least interest you (and for me, also skip over the threads where there's no replies).

    If there's any sequels, I'm sure it would be a Glass Prison part 2, 3, whatever. I say this since MP has stated that the 3 parts in GP are the first 3 steps in AA's 12 step program and some fans have asked in the past if he'd consider doing "sequel" songs for the rest of the steps - he said that he might consider it. So whether it happens or not is anybody's guess, but I highly doubt they'd do a part 3 of Metropolis. How the heck can you top SFaM? Do a double studio CD? Not likely.
