I have another item I'd like to discuss here on this list and (drummmmmmms) I think it's DT related... So, how do you define 'PROG MUSIC'? Is it just music with many unexpected breaks in it? Is it music with many changes in songstructure, harmonies, tempi, ... Is FW other prog than DT?? On this list there was mentioned QR is doing prog music too and if that's true, where do you find the prog elements in the music of QR? Earlier I used to think that prog music was music that is based on instrumental complicated structures and vocals 'running against' the instruments. When I heard DT then, I noticed, that you can call this prog too although there is a 'normal' song structure and not just incredible breaks added to oneanother. Now I think that prog music is (somehow) intelectuel music because it's based on intelligent song writing and arrangements. Can you agree to this? I hope this wasn't discussed on this list before and I could perhaps give you one more interesting theme to talk (mail) about. Just my 2 cents. Bernd. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 8 Mar 1995 01:31:35 -0800 (PST) From: pandora To: email_address_removed Subject: Re: Tesla...nightmare band? -some DT content- Message-ID: On Tue, 7 Mar 1995, DANIEL JAMES TEMMESFELD wrote: > [said in Alcoholic's Anonymous tone...] > My name is Dan...and I too, am a Tesla fan... hehehe > Seriously, though, I started getting interested in music by these > guys.

You know how diversified our tastes are. I have to agree with the people who've posted their likes of 80's rock. Although I'm into very technical playing (DT, Yngwie, etc) as a guitarist of 14 years, I also love the simpler rockin' stuff such as Ozzy, Dokken, AC/DC, Maiden, Tesla, MSG, as well as some newer stuff (Pantera, Jackyl, etc). Another note: I think we're too hard on people that can't spell Dream Theater or abbreviations (DT). I notice a lot of grammatical mistakes as well as spelling mistakes all the time, but I get the general idea. And this is coming from an engineer!

Message-ID: Well, hello... Amazingly enough, I will refrain from posting anything having to do with a_d_o e_g_n_er_ng. (i'm not even gonna SAY IT! HA!) This regards the "lyrical interpretations" that are going on here. IMO, "A Fortune In Lies" is about sacrificing your artistic integrity to make money. (selling out) "Here is a poor man, the heart of this monster creation" Trans: "I'm broke, and that's why I'm thinking about doing shitty music" "He said we both would be heroes, and I was lead into temptation." Trans: "The starving musician in me says, 'I wanna eat. Do something that will make money. Play brilliantly, and everyone will respect you.' This sounded okay." "You can make a fortune in lies" - make money doing music that's not you "You can keep a giant alive" - sell lots of records for the record co. "You can ride the red" - you can slide by on the "blood" of your artistic sacrifice "Until everybody smiles" - pretty self-explanatory. Christianity? Eh. I don't think so. I mean, as long as you can support what you're saying, you could say that "Mary Had A Little Lamb" was about beastiality - "had" in a sexual context. "His fleece was white as snow" - "fleece" = metaphor for semen. Okay, well, MAYBE that's a little ridiculous, but, I hope you see my point. As Freud once said..."Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." (and, incidentally, did you all know that the line "Sail on silver girl" in S&G's "Bridge Over Troubled Water" was interpreted by someone as a reference to a hypodermic needle, and therefore, the song was about heroin?) ----------------------------- Since I'm on my soapbox: The only "BLATANT" religious references seem to come in "Voices." But, personally, IMO, the whole "Mind Beside Itself" trilogy just reeks of Extreme's "III Sides to Every Story"'s _Everything Under The Sun_. If you haven't heard it, you should. But, to save you all some $, think about this: The _3_ songs that make up "EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN" all have to do with self-introspection, and many religious topics. Is this coincidental? I don't think so. I know they listened to that album, especially that "side." How? Because, as I previously (about 6 years ago) posted that when Kevin called my radio station to do an interview I wasn't aware was gonna happen (thanks to my roommate), I was in the middle of playing the 2nd out of those 3 Extreme songs, and told Kevin we'd have to go on the air live, and we'd do it after this song. When we hit the air, I said, "Sorry to interrupt that song..." blah-blah. Kevin goes, "Yeah! Really! Put that Back On!" Me: "Oh, you guys like that?" Kev: "Yeah! We listen to it constantly on the bus." Okay, it's paraphrased a bit, but, those words did come out of his mouth. It has often been said that DT is "Rush for the '90's." Well, consider this: A member of Rush (forget who, probably Neil or Geddy) said they act as a sponge that absorbs what's going on around them musically, and squeezes out their own interpretations with their own influences. Now folks...(god, i sound too much like that other RUSH...DON'T GET ME STARTED ON LIMBAUGH!) I'm not saying this is bad. No, no. Maybe the statement about DT being "Rush for the '90's" has some validity! =) Ahem. I have a file that was probably d/l'ed off the internet before I got it that has an interview with Kevin explaining what "Wait For Sleep" was about. I can post it up if someone wants.

Track list is as follows: Silent Man (of course) Take the Time (demo version) Eve (studio version) Silent Man is direct off of the Awake CD. Take the Time demo version is pretty close to the real version. The only thing that seems to have been removed is the annoying glam metal echo that was on James' voice. Makes it sound like real pussy metal. Eve is an instramental song. First time I've ever heard it, it's pretty cool. Has a Marty Friedman/Kitaro sound to it. I also picked up the new Van Halen CD. I'm still kinda mixed feelings about it. I also haven't given the thing a full listen yet.

First my questions: Since I am new, what is this Subconscious cd thing, it sounds good but I have not seen much in the way of details. Also, some of the acronyms are a little cryptic ( I can figure out some of the DT references to songs, but some of the more conventional abbreviations have escaped me, like IMHO and the likes). I also would like to know the accepted means of replying to people, for instance can I e-mail people directly, or do I have to go through the digest, are there preferences/restrictions I should be aware of?? OK, enough of the questions (For now). Now my observations: I can definitely relate to the complaints about non-DT related materials, but get a grip people, ignore it, read the contents of the digest, no biggie. There is a lot of junk, but someone might learn of something new and/or interesting if they read something they had no intention of reading. I am hoping to find out about a 'Rush" list, and have already seen some bands mentioned here that I have never heard of that sound like they are AT LEAST worth a listen (Echolyn, Magellan, etc..). Another observation is that many of your taste's out there are VERY narrow (while, of course, others are not). I myself have a Very eclectic taste in music (RUSH, Queensryche, (old) MARILLION, DT, NIN, ...Thrill Kill Kult, KMFDM, Stone Temple Pilots,etc...), and do not enjoy having bands that I have found some value in being slammed by people who have not 'Taken The Time" to look at what some of these bands are trying to say or do. I agree everyone has a right to their opinion, but can't we all accept the fact that while we might not appreciate the music, the bands are (hopefully) out there doing what THEY want to do, and finding people who can relate to THAT. If some of it seems mindless, that's OK, that might very well be what they are trying to appeal to... and may in fact be doing it in an original way. That's enough of THAT for now. Now for a comment/rebuttal: NO one can slam RUSH and get away with it... Rush may seem like a sell out to some metal aficionados(?), but what they have consistently tried to do is stay current with what is happening musically around them, as well as experiment with things (and not always successfully, look at what happened to 'Roll the Bones'). The instrumental excellence as well as the multifaceted lyrics make this band a hard one to top. (Any wonder why DT is consistently compared to them??). And Finally (yeah, I know I've gone on and on but...), I know you guys have already answered about MTV's first video, but I am not sure of the level of awareness this list possesses about the members of "The Buggles" who did Video Killed the Radio Star; Two of the members joined YES for the DRAMA LP, and then went on to form ASIA, they were Geoff Downes, and Trevor Horne. Just thought I would throw that in (THAT SHOULD EARN ME THAT BEER AS WELL, HUH???) Brian ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 08 Mar 1995 12:12:51 -0600 (MDT) From: Rulon Clark To: email_address_removed Subject: Space-Dye Vest Message-ID: There were a couple of people talking about the lyrical content of some Dream Theatre songs, and I couldn't let the discussion die without addding my two bits. Dream Theatre are technically superb. Almost God-like in their mastery of their respective instruments. But insturmental mastery won't make a good band on its own. A truly great band is able to communicate ideas and emotions through there music, which Dream Theatre does. In fact, you can take the lyricsto almost any Dream Theatre song and you will have a very good piece of poetry, which isn't all that common in todays world of music. The song Space-Dye Vest sticks out in my mind as an especially good example of this, which is why I'm so sorry to see Kevin Moore leave the band. Space-Dye Vest expresses almost perfectly the feelings I had in a relationship I was in with a girl in my apartment building. I listen to the song, and it's like I'm with her all over again. The words apply "I'll smile and I'll learn to pretend", "Love is an act of blood and I'm bleeding", "Don't ever come near me again, Do you really think I need you?" Yep. Dream Theatre are musical Einsteins. Awesome musical ability, relevant lyrical subject matter, poetry, excellent live shows and tight, crisp, playing. Who can ask more from a band?

So I guess it would be appropriate >for them to do such a thing as playing the super mario-song! Personally, (and a few other people I know as well) it reminds me of a bugs bunny cartoon. The 'Untouchables' one. When Elegant Mess (Bugs) is being chased around through that food processing plant, the background music sounds very similar. I always get visions of Bugs sliding down into the mixer when I hear this part (funny, eh, I am still linked to my childhood in many ways). That's all Folks!

Last night (March 7) I had the chance to see Skid Row at RPM's in Toronto, next door to the Warehouse of "Bad Back Jam" Fame (DT content) on their Live Listening Tour. I can say this much after the first couple of listenings (yes, they played the CD in full prior to show) that the new stuff is much heavier. They played for approx. 2 hours (two encores included). They played all the new songs and a few old ones. Last song of the night, "Get the Fuck Out". Best thing is, tickets were only $13.00 Canadian. For those in the US that's about $5 US :) Going to see them tonight again but in Buffalo @ a much smaller club (Blind Mellon's). FYI from Buffalo they go to Providence then New York then to Europe to play in 10 different cities. BTW Toronto & Buffalo were both sold out.

Ahem (throat clearing noises), can you play better than Steve Howe? I rest my case. I like the comment about accoustics, but I really like his soloing, too. I don't know about Yes, never really listened to them, but with Asia, his solo work is very impressive. His new work with them on "Aqua," he only plays the rhythm accoustical parts. Al Petrelli (a very good lead guitarist) has taken his soloing position for it. Overall, it makes an excellent album.

First, Petrucci asks whether silence is a voice never heard - nothing is being said, or a message with no receivers - something is being said but no one is listening. The Silent Man, apathetic, thinks he is a victim of his parents, brought into a cruel world by their earthly desires. If he remains apathetic and rebels, do they stand to lose their values in depression because they care about his future. Meanwhile, he is only awake when there is reason and balance, he enjoys the good but ignores the bad, when "they have to suffer" or "when theres no answer" He wants to hide behind the great wall of security and separate himself from real people. At the end the Silent Man considers sin and God, and decides rather than "sailing by on the winds of silence" or remaining unknown and separated from the world (a theme of Caught in a Web, and a recurring theme from Awake, possibly because Dream Theater considers themselves removed from the world of pop music), he will swim as a productive member of society. Not so sure about that ending, but that's my feelings on this song. I'll have more later. M.A. VanOpstall email_address_removed "How is it that the clouds hang on you?"
