These shows are a good way for small bands, many on independant labels or small labels to get some exposure in a fairly well publicized concert. Though I would love to see a different show become an annual affair with a bigger Prog Metal band or good mainstream band with three or four other bands. Something like Dream Theater headlining for Magellan, King's X, Fate's Warning, and Echolyn. (all of these bands have decent record deals, except for perhaps Magellan). This would make a great Prog-Rock festival and would introduce a lot of the fans of one group to groups in a similar vein. Another good show would be Marillion headlining for Cairo, IQ, Enchant, and Fish (sorry couldn't resist ). Dream & Nightmare bands ----------------------- The only good thing about these threads are: 1. The lurkers get a chance to post. 2. Occationally one really funny lineup comes along. (I saw one that made me laugh pretty loud, can't remember it now) Otherwise they cause a shitload of unintelligent postings. If we had an edited digest Ken would have to make a digest just of these posts. That way I could easily hit the key. Echolyn and Related Band Discussions ------------------------------------ Unlike the above mentioned types of threads, these are useful in that many of us don't exclusively listen to Dream Theater and some of us might like another band more (Oh the horror!!!). I have discovered many new bands through these threads (I thank the applicable persons), and I hope I have introduced others to bands they really enjoy. Many of the bands talked about on here are small-time Prog Metal bands and Prog Rock groups who are just making ends and really need help in the fan base category, which will allow them to keep making albums and keep the types of music we love alive. Echolyn is one such band that I love to tout, since they are probably one of the few Prog Groups other than Dream Theater with a position to make it big in the music industry where they were signed on the premise that they would retain their musical integrity and not try to become "pop" machines churning out senseless #1 love ballads (sorry Van Halen fans, I love them but they always have to put the one or two #1 songs ie. When It's Love, insert the one off of Balance with all of the airplay). I think Dream Theater has avoided this, "Balls and Chunk...." Back to Echolyn, their new album is coming out on March 7th in the USA as Jason Hartman (glad you like the song, nice sig. ) pointed out in the last digest. They use vocal harmonies to great effect (2 and 3 part, the guitarist sings lead and harmonies, the vocalist sings lead and backing, and the keyboardist sings backing) and the songs are in lots of wierd time sigs, lots of orchestral type writing styles applied to creating the songs (the keyboardist Chris and guitarist Brett are both classically trained and write most of the songs). They are especially strange since the stuff off of the new album (As the World) is stranger and even more complex than their older stuff (Suffocating the Bloom, Echolyn, both out of print). Lyrics are a mix of Egoist stuff, (What I have, is worth much more, than all my words could ever say (sorry, this is from ear, all I have is a recording of the second album on tape)) to cosmic (Set a course, up ahead, straight into heaven). They are also a bit into The Fountainhead and other works by the famous early Neil Peart influence. I cannot more highly recommend this stuff, since they are releasing the album on Sony the album should be in listening stations in several mall stores and chains, or at least be in the bins. Give it a couple of listens on successive visits to the store, let it sink in and pick up a copy. Enough rambling... Mike email_address_removed BTW Half of the Progressive compilation tapes I made have been mailed out so be expecting them over the next week or two. I thank everyone who had an interest, I wish I was independantly wealthy and had lots of time, because I would make you all tapes. But unfortunately, that is not the case. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 6 Mar 95 16:32:08 EST From: U-E59578-Charles Hanley To: email_address_removed Subject: MLOL Status Message-ID: Does anyone know what the status of "The Musical List of Lists" is?

What types of chords can you use to bring out the sound of this mode? I've found that moving chord drones up a whole step (I think, this is coming from memory so I might be wrong) works. Are there any other ways? 2>-What is the piano chord progression on Space Dye Vest? It sounds like a circle progression in several different keys. Any input here? 3>-Does anyone have the Guitar magazine with the music for Lie in it? I'd love to know where I can back order or possibly get a copy of it from. Does JP use his seven string guitar for that wild lick leading into the first solo? "There seems to be another solution." -Subliminal message on a DT song. Can you guess which one?

Well, that number 3 also applies to the upcoming Awake TAB book, yet we won't have to wait three years. Try THREE WEEKS! Yep'ur, you heard me right. Talked to some guys at Warner Bros. and Petrucci just sent them the edited sheets. Should be out and ready in 3 weeks. Save your dimes and nickels. Start bugging your music store. I'll post here with info on ordering direct if your music store isn't good. Also, the Petrucci guitar video is still in production. No release date as of yet. In case you are wondering, I don't know how they'll handle the 7-string parts.

I was watching my better half play the original Super Mario Brothers game on regular Nintendo. As I was listening to the music on the very first level (1-1), I thought to myself that it would be so cool if DT played it live in the middle of a jam or something. Before you flame me or compliment me, listen to it yourself. There is a high end bass that JM could play, and two harmonizing melodies that JP and DS could play. MP would have to make up some bet ing the rythm of the original music. Everyone would recognize it. If you actually listen to the music, the rhythm of the melody is kinda wacky. They could even do a medly of the other levels, they all consist of the same elements. Anyway, whadda ya think?

Are they worth >it, or similiar to DT? Any info would be appreciated... > Well, I wouldn't really say that Echolyn is that similar to DT. They do have complex music with lots of time changes and cool rhythms though. I would still *highly* recommend seeing them live. I've seen them twice now and before I'd seen them live I hadn't been that impressed by their albums. They put on a *fantastic* live show though (rivalling DT in overall quality). Their vocals are extremely powerful and the music is incredibly tight in their live show. Many of the people who I was with had never heard them before and they came away very impressed. After hearing them live, I listened to their studio album and it was much more impressive (I think they do come across more powerfully live though, maybe because of the mix on the album, I'm not sure). I'd recommend seeing them live to any DT fan, though don't go in expecting a typical metal band or another Dream Theater.

I don't think he's mentioned the band here at all, but you should check them out. There's a web page at http://www.tns.lcs.mit.edu/~panther/ld50.html with information, sound bites, etc. If you ask Brent nicely, he might even be willing to make copies of LD50's demo tape for people. I'd say LD50 has a heavier, more metal oriented sound than DT does, but I think the DT influence does show. Perhaps the best way to describe the sound is "kicks ass!" And, I might add, they have the only song with a serious kazoo solo that I've ever heard. So check it out....

I think Tesla is an excellent group. They have a unique ability to be IMO exceptionally heavy without being fast, it seems that's what they excel at. They may have some ballads out which always seems to leave a bad taste in people's mouths but those ballads aren't the super sappy songs that some bands like to put out. How can you compete with "Paradise"? Also, I agree on sticking with the music you grew up on as well. My favorite bands are Dream Theater, Rush, and Queensryche but I still love to listen to the stuff I grew up on like Motley Crue, Boston, WASP, Quiet Riot, RATT, Twisted Sister (absolutely timeless), Dokken, and Aldo Nova (bet no one knows who this is). I repurchased a lot of these albums on CD since all my old copies were off vinyl. Just thought I'd share!

Message-ID: Grettings 'jammers! With all the people pissing and moaning about non-DT content flooding the list, I thought I would try to start a new thread that actually IS related to DT!!! (drums please). For most of DT's songs, I get images in my head when I listen to them. For example, Metropolis makes me think of a large, dark, futuristic looking city, Erotomania seems like the inside of a huge clock with lots of gears and electonic components spinning, and A Fortune in Lies reminds me of a bunch of greedy men sitting around a table, counting money and smoking cigars. These are just a couple of examples. It would be interesting to hear what others think of/imagine when they listen to DT. It doesn't necessarily have to coincide with the lyrics, but can be what the music causes you to think about as a whole. Hopefully this can help to quench the throats of the DT hungry. __________________________________________________________ | Andrew Joseph Feyder | "You know, life moves pretty | | Gustavus Adolphus College | fast.

If you look in the girl's hands, she's holding what looks like a picture in a frame. Hence the lyrics, "God give me the power to take breath from a breeze And call life from a cold metal frame" The bed may also be a symbol for Wait For Sleep as well. The song refers to laying in bed twice as well as to going to sleep (also in the title). This is just my observation. Maybe you agree... Maybe Not...
