I'm not sure if this is the live version from LatM, or a studio one. Anyone know?

Message-ID: I really enjot the acoustic intro to the Killing Hand from WDADU. Could someone please tab that up for me? I would really like to play it on my keyboard. It has a very nice "nylon guitar" voice. A midi file would be even better!

Does anyone have a track listing of what's on the new CD? I heard there was one posted about 2 days before I joined the group, but I didn't see anything else. -Spyke ------------------------------ Topic No. 4 Date: Fri, 29 Jul 1994 00:02:14 +0800 From: email_address_removed (Ken Bibb) To: ytsejam Subject: NEW DEMO CAUGHT INA WEB..plus the radio show Message-ID: Forward from email_address_removed follows. Hello, yesterday i received a copy of the Dream theater Radio Interview with Mike Portnoy....it took place out in LA on a programed called "Nightwatch with Mike Kelly". Anyway to get to demo news. Mike played an early demo of the song "Caught in a Web"....at first I have to admit I thought it was kind of strange but then 5 mins later I couldn't get the chorus out of my head!!!! GREAT TUNE! And they've done much work to it since them so I'm sure the finished product will be even better. Anyway the tape is around 60 mins long and it contains some funny stuff like Mike singing the end to Surrounded. (and a funny story to go with it!). Anyway it was a great thing, and the demo was sweet as well! I can't wait for the new album. I'm entertaining trades on this tape now if anyone is interested.

Hi all, I promised earlier to research the availability of bootlegs here. I could not find anywhere that had tapes, so its CD only. I went to quite a few places, but I'm not an authority on this kind of stuff so I'm sure there are loads of places I don't know about. The scene seems to have changed since a year ago, the prices have come down (maybe due to greater availability) and new short reviews with sound quality ratings or aud/line distinctions (in Japanese). I found: - Classics Live - Dream out Loud - Lords of Sound - Lost in the Sky - Majesty Demos (1986) - Instru Mental (1987) - Home Sweet Home - Consciously Unreal - Excellent - Vol 1. (Live and Alive). Unfortunately I could not find 'Moon Bubbles'. I asked (via a charming Australian assistant) in the best shop about it, the manager said he had never heard of it - and that he would have done if it were a Tokyo based company that produced it. He said that if it is indeed a Japanese release, then it might come from Osaka. I now have quite a number of these (add my vote to the LiTS fan club - but I don't have DoE), including the last two. I got these because they were "cheap" and I'd not heard of them on the list. Basically, they are not anywhere near the quality of the better ones. Here is an attempt at a similar to 'boot list' style review (maybe people could add better reviews - like performance, more details on sound quality etc. to the list). Excellent, 1 CD (no country/date) NOVA NV-09 says GEMA on CD. Recorded in N.Y. 1993.7.22 Cheap packaging, portrait band photo on front cover. Sounds like it was recorded by a distant stereo microphone at the back of the hall. Slight stereo image, even quality, massive drum sound, possible DAT recording. Deep bass notes (bass pedals?) get distorted. Concert is not same as DoL but Galactic Cowboys are credited too. Date is possibly supported by JL "on road for 10 months","N.Y". No close audience sound. ::14,12,21,11,17,49?,46,2,10,9,16 Live and Alive Vol.1 (is there a vol.2?), 1 CD (no country/date prob German) Imtrat medienvertrieb music gmbh. imm 40.90205 Says recorded in U.S.A in 1989 and 1992. This is not true. Audience tape. Sound fair - worst DT boot heard. Guitar not loud, sound not even - hear audience voices in Italian (I think). JL says "Come on Milano(sic), let me keer(sic) you out there". This is not the LiTs concert though. Has cover "art"(doodle) by Harald Heinrichs, Hamburg (big deal - its two "Calvin" style faces). Not recommended. Has aFiL not Afterlife. Could be same as Counsciously Unreal - but I don't have this. ::13,1,14,12,3,10,39,4,9 I hope this was useful info - maybe it could be incorporated into the boot list. I was hoping to find the instrumental show, unplugged, any demos not previously mentioned and the vocalist audition tapes but couldn't see them. Happy hunting. Martin. ------------------------------ Topic No. 6 Date: Fri, 29 Jul 1994 09:44:14 -0500 (CDT) From: William Wright To: email_address_removed Cc: email_address_removed Subject: Re: NEW DEMO CAUGHT INA WEB..plus the radio show Message-ID: > Hello, yesterday i received a copy of the Dream theater > Radio Interview with Mike Portnoy....it took place > out in LA on a programed called "Nightwatch with Mike Kelly". > > Anyway it was a great thing, and the demo was sweet as well! > I can't wait for the new album. > > I'm entertaining trades on this tape now if anyone is interested. Hmm..... can we like send 5 bucks to you and you could make a copy of it? I don't really know if there is anything you'd want of mine to trade. Its sounds cool though.

Message-ID: Well, this is the last time I'm asking Tower for any info!!! I called a real record store and they don't have it now because they already sold IO out! Geeez... my luck really sucks this week, although I'm glad to hear that FW is selling their albums fast. Does anybody know if FW is going to show up at Foundations Forum this year? I know they were there last year, shopping for the new record label.
