In fact, on the album, The Mirror segues into Lie without the drum break which is at the beginning of the Lie single. The Mirror is in a similar vein to Lie but has lots of tasty keyboard stuff in the way of textures and moods. One of the things I really like about the ablum is the metal sound of Kev and his keyboards. Take care, Eric!

Well, if the moderators are smart they'll make the channel "moderated." What this means (the +m flag) is that only moderators can talk. So the DT members will be oped and moderators will be oped and then those who want to ask a question will /msg a moderator and they'll keep track of these names and then when that persons name comes around on the list, they'll say "OK John Doe, you're up, ask your question" then they'll op that person and they'll be able to speak. ------------------------------ Topic No. 6 Date: Sat, 10 Sep 1994 13:21:23 -0500 (CDT) From: email_address_removed To: email_address_removed Subject: Re: YTSEJAM digest 510 Message-ID: Is anyone interested in buying a drum-head autographed from the 1993 tour? ------------------------------ Topic No. 7 Date: Sat, 10 Sep 1994 13:02:50 -0500 (EDT) From: Michael Burstin To: email_address_removed (Ytsejam SERVER) Subject: Puppies On Acid Message-ID: Oh... one thing I forgot to mention is that The Mirror is basically based on Puppies On Acid... The beginning IS Pup, and most of the song has the same or faster sound. Also, every time I hear the tape, it get's better... The only song I don't think is absolutly incredible already is 6:00, which has potential once I listen to it a few more times... Oh, anyone who already has it, any clues where the samples from 6:00 are from? I just can't wait for this to come out on CD... I'll probably break the damn tape before it's released... :) -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Caught In A Web | | Numb from the world | | Hanging on by a thread | | Scared of the life that fights in my head | | Dream Theater Caught In A Web Awake | | release date for Dream Theater's Awake: October 4, 1994 | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Michael Burstin Brandeis University | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ For info about Dream Theater, finger email_address_removed ------------------------------ Topic No. 8 Date: Sat, 10 Sep 1994 11:07:18 -0500 (EDT) From: Michael Burstin To: email_address_removed (Ytsejam SERVER) Subject: I have been AWAKEned Message-ID: Well, I just got my copy of a copy of Awake, and I must say, it is quite impressive... I am listening to it for the first time, and am listening to Scarred right now (next to the last song). From my first impressions, most of the CD is incredible on the first listen... Have to listen to 6:00 once more... Everything else is INCREDIBLE on first listen... The full version of Erotomania is AWSOME. Lifting Shadows Off A Dream is GREAT, Scared is almost scary how good it is (I am running out of different words to describe the songs :) Now, as I posted before, I will try to copy Awake for anyone who wants an early copy, but I have to fit it into my schedule... So far, after my first post, only 2 people have responded... I am sure that there are many more of you who want awake... Again, I can try to get tapes copied ASAP, but I have alot of other stuff to do... -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Caught In A Web | | Numb from the world | | Hanging on by a thread | | Scared of the life that fights in my head | | Dream Theater Caught In A Web Awake | | release date for Dream Theater's Awake: October 4, 1994 | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Michael Burstin Brandeis University | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ For info about Dream Theater, finger email_address_removed ------------------------------ Topic No. 9 Date: Sun, 11 Sep 1994 04:09:00 JST From: Kaoru Kobayashi To: email_address_removed Subject: Thank you so much!!! :):):) Message-ID: (It's not DT thing, but I am anxious to say!) >> And stop apologizing for your grammatical mistakes.

I can tell you about a funny part of Live in Tokyo video. Did you understand the Japanese girl really say before the part of WFS? In fact, she said "Please try your best in Japan from now on! I expect much from you!!" in it. :) I'm looking forward to read about Foundentions Forum.

I received an envelope from WEA it had in it some things concerning DT. First, I have yet another sticker. Next was a full-page color ad for AWAKE. One side is the album cover and the back is promo for the album. The last bit of info is the most interesting. Inside of a promo mag that I get each month, a page is devoted to promos that they will send to me. One of the items listed was a DT Interactive CD-ROM for AWAKE which "will guide you thru AWAKE before its release on October 4th." I found this VERY interesting and mailed the page back to WEA in order to get this promo. I'm assuming this CD-ROM is promo only, but it would be nice for everyone to have a chance of owning one. When I do get this thing, I'll be sure to let everyone on here know what it's like.

Lifting Shadows > Hmmm...this makes me just resting a bit sceptic....as I remember that the qualities of DT used to be visible for me only after quite a few listens.....means I had to get to knwo the structure of the song qnd learn to understand it a bit.... but on the other hand i am anxious to hear it, especially as i need these days a new musical backround for emotions which i last felt two years ago and where i felt myself perfectly expressed within the strengh of DTs I&W music and lyrics....so: > Now, as I posted before, I will try to copy Awake for anyone who wants > an early copy, but I have to fit it into my schedule...
