I have been playing for about six years now and i feel i know a little about guitars now. so if you have any questions about guitars, amps, effects, or anything else, please e-mail me and i'll try to answer your questions. please make note that i wrote try, I wouldn't call myself an expert. If i don't know i will try my hardest to find you an answer. I've always thought that if people needed questions an answered they should have someone to goto. I hope i can help steve wisinski email_address_removed "I'm the Wiz!

Is it just me, or, when you listen to "The Killing Hand" on LatM -> are you reminded of Rob Halford? I think James sounds so much like Rob in this tune... Later!

I've seen album covers and such turned into gifs, and that seems of dubious legality... it would seem that taking frames from a video and distributing them might not be such a good idea from a legal point of view... 2) If I'm able to get them, does anyone have an anonymous ftp site where I can stick them? On an unrelated note, MTV's link on the world wide web has an album review for Images and Words! To check it out, open a link to http://mtv.com and look in reviews - it's pretty cool. (Even though they only gave it a 4.5/5...*grrrr* if any album is a 5 then it's I&W!) - Brent (email_address_removed) "I can see what trust and loyalty have done to me Lying bleeding in the dark With a thirst for revenge and a dangerous heart" DT ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 Jan 94 16:57:15 PST From: email_address_removed (Zack Gemmill) Subject: Re: .. to alchemy: because the list was down until now.

I am transcribing the GUITAR part, not the lyrics. Thanks for sending me the lyrics, but that is not what i am doing. (someone else could, 'cause alot of those lyrics are wrong) Anyway, as soon as I get the first minute or so of ACOS transcribed, I will post it here.

I just got DoE yesterday and it is INCREDIABLE. Finally, someone gets the drums and base to come through correctly. Now, if this same person could get the guitars to come through at the same time! If it's not one instrument that's not coming through loud enough, it's another. Don't get me wrong, I love the disc. But, at certain times (the intro to Take the Time, for example) it needed a LOT more guitar volume. I can't even filter it up loud enough to sound close to correct. And, too bad James' voice was shot for disc II. But, on the whole, a good disc! I'm glad I purchased it. Change of Seasons is amazing, isn't it? I am going to purchase another rare import. Any recommendations (Skyway of Nightmares, Consciously Unreal, or Live in Long Island ('92))? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 Jan 94 20:09:23 MST From: email_address_removed (Ken Higginson) Subject: Re: YTSEJAM digest 301 Speaking of transcribing: I'm working on Ytse Jam for bass guitar... It's all playable, there is nothing that requires a 5-string or a 6-string... Well, you have some stretching to do, but... I'm sure that most of it is similar to the guitar, so if anyone knows that part, I need some help with a couple of things, mainly, what Myung plays when Petrucci is tremolo picking. It's similar to the main theme, but not exactly... I'd love to hear from ANY DT fan who plays guitar or bass (I play both) interested in exchanging what we know. I know bits and pieces of lots of DT...

My band is in need of a new name. We used to be GODSPEED but we just found out that there is another band named that. I think is either the bass player from Skid Row or Kix and they have started a new band or produced a new band or something like that. I was wondering if you had any suggestions? Of course the best name has already been taking, Dream Theater of course. I want something along that line like Majesty (yes I know it taken, does that band still exist?), something regal or majestic like that. Or, I would really like a cool name from a Dream Theater song. Like Liquid Shadows, Decending Scarlet, Nervous Flashlights, Sea of Rage. I kinda like King from Below. What do yall think of that one? PLease offer suggestions, thanks!

Does anyone know what that funny writing is on Kev's keyboard and stand? It looks like Japanese or something... He is something that has got me wondering... It's in regards to the name Dream Theater. It says in the FAQ that there was a demo song called Dream Theater before it was a band name. Also, I believe that it was mikes father who thought of the name Dream Theater for the band from the name of some cinema. So did Mikes dad think of the name and they used it for the song 1st or what? Please clarify! Thanks!

As long as these pictures are used for personal use, ie picture backgounds on terminals, put up on your wall, etc.... it is ok. It is not ok, if these images are used for profit, or if some one claims them as their own work. I have the complete I&W cd cover scanned in and using it as backgrounds on my sun terminal. I can post these files some where, if some one has a favrite site.
