Message-ID: > > I have seen some of the DT song interpreted but one I have > missed is "The Mirror" > > > I grasped most of it, but can't figure out who Cassandra was/is... > > (I'll try to quote the lyrics now) > "just like Cassandra fleeting > Twentieth century icon bleeding" > > Andy > This subject came up some time ago. Cassandra was the daughter of King Priam of Troy. I did a few searches of the Greek classics archived at MIT, searching for both "Cassandra" and "fleeting" but failed to find the exact phrase. I believe someone else posted the source, or at least why the phrase came to be. It probably came from some classic poem alluding to the stories of Troy. I believe I've heard the phrase before DT's reference, but I'm not sure. Hmm. I guess that didn't help too much. Zach ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 13 Oct 1995 01:19:23 -0700 (PDT) From: Steve Borzilleri To: Dream Thespians Subject: YJ #1025-1026 Message-ID: I have yet to read through YJ #1027, so sorry if some of this stuff has already been commented on. To Michael Bradley: I identified that opening, drawn-out holler in "Bombay Vindaloo" a while back. If you watch the Simpsons you will know who I'm talking about when I say it is BARNEY!! Really, just imagine his inebriated self at a Dream Theater concert, only screaming instead of belching. Also, I have a comment on what you wrote about Scarred. Yes, the song is drum-complex, and that could definitely be a reason it was not played on the Awake tour. But... Has anyone ever thought of that poor guy who had to learn mountains of material mere months (many much m's) before Dream Theater started their grand tour? His name was Derek Sherinian. He learned at an inhuman pace, unless he was so much of a fan of DT's work BEFORE getting into the band that he could already play all of Kevin's material. Perhaps "Scarred" was asking a little too much of our friend Derek. He DID learn a TON of stuff in so short a time, and I respect him for that achievement. I think the main reason "Scarred" wasn't on the tour was because they could only cram so much music into Derek in so short a time, so there might have been a "What's one song? Besides, if we skip this one, it will give ALL of us a break considering how long and complex it is." attitude among the band members. They avoid pushing too much on him, and at the same time don't have to play through it every night. Ok, I take that one part back, one song is A LOT because obviously every fan in the world noticed, but you have to give Derek a pat on the back for learning the eight songs he did from "Awake." This reminds me of all the Ytsejammers who complained about Derek missing some of his cues and whatnot during the Awake tour. Give me a break! Give HIM a break! ---------- To Mike Rappazzo: It was I who paralleled "The Silent Man" with the Oedipus Rex story. I will try to re-post what I wrote so long ago, if I can find it. Wow, someone noticed AND remembered something I wrote... ---------- To All: (random comments regarding my posting about "Slow Motion") 1. I received quite a few e-mails inquiring about it. 2. Yes, it is a real song despite the fact that all Ytsejammers do not have a bootleg of it and it isn't on a discography anywhere. 3. Has anyone else ever heard of this song? 4. I will post the tab of "Petrucci's Ladder" soon. This is a definite scale, and of course I made up that name. I name lots of licks and techniques because it helps me to better remember them, as opposed to calling something "Paul Gilbert 1.4" 5. To those I wrote back to, I take back what I said because my brain was not functioning. Pay no attention to what I wrote. Your e-mails woke me up to something I had completely forgotten. 6. I will have more to post in a few days if I vehemently address what I'm thinking *right* *now*. And I WILL get on it right now because the 'Jams have been good to me. I have this peculiar feeling that a few folks will be ytse, ytse interested. Yes, I'll post alllll about it... This silenzio will be broken... Bafu Vai p.s.

Except for PMU I agree with you on all the above Matt. 2.) To Mike Bahr: Thanks for looking up John 3:16, and posting it in the Y-Jam. I hope you weren't the only one who looked it up. James Garrett probably did if he couldn't remember it by heart. 3.) Did you guys/girls catch the post of the interview with J. Labrie? I not telling you I told you so, that's not appropriate. But I did state in a previous Y-jam about using profanity in the studio and how DT was an intellectual band with a progressive bent and that I thought they were above that.

Nice long 'Jams... ---------- To Robert Quezada: I second the motion. I appreciate Mike Bahr's statements. Not that I mind reading anyone's long posts nor do I mind writing them, because this is still a 30,000-60,000-characters-per-digest mailing list that takes me a long time to read, so one long post doesn't make any difference to me. If you get it as a digest, you read through it with all the other opinions in this ocean and swim on. If you get the posts one by one, you can zap the big ones as as they enter your mailbox. Either way I don't see why it's such a big deal. ---------- To Warren: I found your "asshole" post to be about as disturbing as the first time I listened to "Good Friends And A Bottle Of Pills" by Pantera. Perhaps you meant for it to relate to the song with all your talk of headaches and Tylenol... (yes I laughed) ---------- To Mike Bahr: You see, the thing about my humor is that I usually weave it into what I happen to be saying at the time. You, oh Jesty One, have opted for a served-on-a-silver-platter routine. That last joke was, to quote good old Ross Perot, "HI-larious!" but I am going to assume you have erased the word "subtle" from your Ytsejam Guide To Normal Humorous Postings. :) (hmmm...who said he was normal in the first place?) ---------- On Outdoor Places: Were some of you talking about that huge outdoor stage surrounded by gigantic walls of orange and tan rock? I've seen it in many videos, namely Firehouse's "All She Wrote." What's the name of it? ---------- On the Petrucci-Clinic postings: (no, I wasn't there) CHOPIN'S FUCKING ETUDE #2???!!!!! Did I ever mention how every time I hear John Petrucci play something I haven't heard him play before I am absolutely blown away?! Really, the solo of "To Live Forever" hit me after Awake, then it was a recording of "Barfbag," then it was the Live In Tokyo Video's extended solo to "To Live Forever," then it was "Moon Bubbles," then it was a solo-spot from a 1987 instrumental show, etc. Now this guy is playing CHOPIN?!?! I can believe it, but I can't imagine it. Okay, I can try to imagine it, but gracious me... ---------- To WildKoba: HAHA!! "Miracle" and "Sleeper!" Too perfect! Write that to Michael Kizer and ask for a special-request late mail-in. Petrucci would surely get a kick out of it. As for his wife, it sounds like she's got enough kicks to worry about.

Message-ID: Graham-- What are you thinking? How can you even accuse DT of selling out. Do you think that Portnoy and Petrucci book all their gigs? They have a record company and a management company. If both these people don't feel that UK shows will be profitable, then they won't let DT do them. I don't think DT is large enough to pressure the record company into letting them do what they want. If you're angry, then all the UK DT fans need to let East/West Records know how they feel and that they will pay to see their favorite band. Don't bash the band for something that is out of their hands.

True, Brian took a stab at The Crimson Sunrise in Jam #1000, but not all of what he posted was correct. In one instance, there is an interval of a tritone which Brian transcribed as a Perfect 4th! The ACOS TAB Project seems like a novel idea, but I think you'll have to take into account inaccuracies from untrained ears. Not a particular slam on anyone, but if most of the guitar TAB i've seen posted to the net to date is any indication of people's general transcription skills, well, I suggest you wait until the sheet music comes out. ;') Happy rails, ....

I'll admit to being a bit taken back by the difference between it and the one on SUBCON, but I was thinking maybe that is one reason why Petrucci hates boots. To him it is not a perfect product until it is done in the studio. To get used to an unfinished product probably upsets him. The result is dissatisfaction with what they do or could have done, when the studio version is *exactly* what they wanted done having time to think about it. I'm not against boots, but without a boot of ACOS, I never would have been taken back. The part I really miss is the neoclassical part near the end of SUBCON. Maybe they took it out to put it in another song on the upcoming album--maybe Metropolis II? When has DT ever backed away from such a cool riff?! They must not have included it for a good reason such as this. THANK YOU DREAM THEATER FOR GIVING US THIS TREASURE!!

If you don't believe me, check out _As The World_ by Echolyn or _Octopus_ by Gentle Giant. With the exception of the last tune on the Echolyn, all the tunes are about 5 minutes or less. They're all very well done, and pack a lot of progressiveness into a short time! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- "When they turn the pages of history Jonathan Byrne when these days have passed long ago.

She was given the power of prophecy by the god Apollo, but when she wouldn't do him, he told everybody not to believe her even though she was always right. She and Agamemnon were killed by Clytemnestra and Aegisthus. Her name is usually used to mean any prophet of doom, like those poeple who say the world is going to end next week. Then again, maybe it's just some old girlfriend. "Maybe I'm just Cassandra fleeting" becomes a pretty cool line. Most of the song before, he is talking about some sort of personal doom. But then he says that maybe he is just being like Cassandra, telling of a doom that is not going to take place. The ironic part is that the original Cassandra was always right. I hope this helps. > > I grasped most of it, but can't figure out who Cassandra was/is... > > (I'll try to quote the lyrics now) > "just like Cassandra fleeting > Twentieth century icon bleeding" > > > Any insight would be appreciated. > > > thanks > > > Andy > James Garrett ________________________________ email_address_removed "Because I had found it hard to attend to anything less interesting than my own thoughts, I was difficult to teach."

Back in March this year there were plans to do a full UK tour, which was reduced to one show at the London Forum (which as you might guess, was amazing (incidentally was this the only gig that had John Petrucci's guitar tech. working the wah pedal during one of his solos, enabling John to roam around the stage?)) (sorry about all the brackets). From what I've read in the fanzine Images and Words, they had problems with promoters, which meant that they couldn't do any other dates without making a massive loss, and that, rather than refusing to do small venues, was the reason for only doing one gig. Any other 'jammers have more info on this?

This guy told me they are all made in Japan. The deal is that they are selling 100 in the states and another 100 outside the states.

I wish! Seriously, if a couple of us guitarists would do a little work, we could TAB the whole thing out easily. Here is what I suggest. Interested persons let me know. The ACOS TAB Project -------------------- Brian Cox has already started transcribing the beginning of ACOS as posted in YtseJam #1000. I have worked out some of Carpe Diem. I propose that interested guitarists would be assigned a particular section of the song to transcribe. If there are more than 7 interested, we can assign more to each section or hardest sections or split up each section. Imagine how quickly we can tab this thing out. Afterwards, we email each of our transcriptions to others for checking. After debate and corrections, we have a near perfect transcription (maybe even send it to Petrucci?). The final TAB will be available for everyone. Interested?

I can think of three bands, besides what has already been mentioned, that include a self-titled song on a self-titled album. Damn Yankees: with the great Ted Nugent and Tommy Shaw (Styx) on guitars. RTZ: former Boston members Brad Delp and Barry Goudreau have a song called 'Return To Zero', which is what RTZ stands for. (the song rocks, good album!)

Any questions, comments, suggestions, etc. send 'em my way... +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | Michael Kizer -- Computer Sciences Corporation (Tucson, AZ) | | email_address_removed (preferred) -or- email_address_removed | | http://www.indirect.com/www/mkizer/index.htm | | ^--> Check here for the Dream Theater Song Book... | | "Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose." -Rush (The Band!) | +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ ------------------------------ End of YTSEJAM Digest 1031 **************************
