Thanks to everyone for voting. 1. Seventh Son of A seventh Son (by one vote over Powerslave!) 2. Powerslave 3. Somewhere In Time (tie) 3. Number Of The Beast (tie) 4. P. of Mind (tie) Live After Death (tie) Somewhere in Time and Number of the Beast were tied, as were P.of Mind and L. After Death. All the albums that are ranked received at least two votes (#4). These six albums were the only albums named, however one person voted for all the Iron Maiden albums, saying that they are all so good, he couldn't choose.

Well, it's hard to say when they'd be finished recording the album. But, I guess that the con can be bumped to say mid to late June? I can't bump it too far because a lot of people will be away from college, which means they won't be able to check e-mail. Also, people could already have summer plans doing other things. Like me, for instance. I plan to be in Hong Kong over the summer, and it's sort of hard to organize something when you're on the other side of the earth ;) But anyways, I've already asked someone to give me all of the dates for the clinics. Babs, did you mention when the convention might be to Don? I'm not sure, but I'm hoping that they'll be done recording by early June? Hopefully....(I hope!) I guess that we just have to wait and see what happens on the band's end. TTYL!

I copied the frog and cat from someone else (hee hee) I am not capable of original thought. What do you mean IF Dream Theater ever does a Queen cover? Haven't you been listening to Ay-Cose? They do Bohemian Rhapsody (good call, Garth) Oh yeah, one more thing. Please, please have YtseCon in Las Vegas or San Francisco. It would work out so wonderfully since I just happen to live in the SF Bay Area. Now that I'm done with my little selfish plugs I think I will get off my ass and go to school.

Message-ID: I don't know how many of you guys really know the details about Berklee but you have been talking a lot about it. For starters, Berklee is a dedicated private jazz and rock instructional school for numerous different instruments. Getting into the school is not as difficult as you might think. They have class placement. The better that you are the higher up the so called ladder in placement you are. When you are accepted they sit you down in front of a piece of music and make you sight read it, solo over the chord progression in either or both jazz and rock styles, and also make you take a written test on music theaory to see what you already know. How successful a person is on these tests determines their class placement. You will get more out of the school if you go in with a good bit of previous training though. Another thing it is expensive!!! Remember, Dream Theater only went there for a couple of symesters. A lot of their talent came from other instructors and a little self teaching. Just because someone went to Berklee it doesn't mean that they are the best musicians on the planet. I got accepted into Berklee but could not afford the $20,000 dollar a year tab that comes with it. I'm just learning on my own and with an instructor and I don't think that I am going to suffer in my playing because I could not afford to go. Rob Barker P.S. In my opinion, Dream Theater should be up for a Grammy. The Grammy's need a Best of Progessive category!!! ------------------------------------- Name: Barker E-mail: email_address_removed Date: 3/4/96 Time: 11:53:43 AM This message was sent by Chameleon ------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 04 Mar 1996 10:46:25 -0700 From: BILL HUSTON To: email_address_removed Subject: Marcel Berkhout (ndtc) Message-ID: Sorry to waste bandwidth here but MARCEL BERKHOUT please email me.

I view it as a guy admiting that he and > this woman had a child together and now she has moved on with her life and > is possibly carrying another man's twins????????? I guess that the part That's it! Babs figured it out! Kevin had an affair with John P.'s wife and they had a kid who now lives in secrecy with Mark Zonder and Tori Amos. Meanwhile, she was carrying another man's twins (namely, John's), and that's why he had to leave the band! Then he cut his hair as a disguise, and faked testicle cancer so that John would never guess that his wife had Kev's kid!

There's also the fact that when James sings really loud it gets slightly distorted... also, if you turn up the volume at the very end, you'll notice that the fade-out is rather abrupt... just some observations...

Message-ID: Hi Ystejammers! I'm a fan from Quebec of Dream Theatre. I'm practicing piano, and everybody knows that Kevin wrote really good songs on it. I was just wandering if anybody know where I could find Dream Theatre music sheets for piano, for songs like: Eve, Wait for sleep, Space Dye-vest... So if anyone know where I could find some, or even if you have some of them, well, just e- mail me. Thanks a lot!

Actually Scott left Judas Priest, when Rob Halford did, to join Fight. I've heard some of the singles off their records, (one is called _War of Words_ and they have one more) and they kick. The only problem with this band is that one of the guitarists likes to double Halford's vocals death-metal-style. It's pretty lame; thank God it's low in the mix. "Nailed to the Gun" is an excellent tune.

Jams!)I have decided that I'm going to reduce the number of fanzine issues to four a year (as opposed to six). This is also due to the fact that I'm having a harder time with each issue getting people to send me stuff to print - this is a forum for all DT fans; I'm not going to write the whole thing myself. The price itself will not change, but the subscription will; it is now $5 US/$8 foreign for an entire year. Fortunately, this coincides with a lot of current subscriptions ending. To those of you whom I owe back issues: I've had a really hard time getting to the print shop, but I *will* make it there before the weekend, this I vow. To those of you wondering when the heck I'm going to get the new issue out, I'm a-workin' on it; I'm currently sans an ink cartridge for my printer, and I would like to collect another 2-3 pages of material before I put it out. I'm anticipating late March or early April. I put out my pitiful plea one more time: contributions, pleeeeeeease!!!! I would like a review of any of the other DT shows after Christmas; Hairball so generously provided me with one of the sardine can show, but I would like reviews of the others as well. I would also very much appreciatge any photos anyone has to contribute, be they the actual photos or in file form (I can view .jpg, .bmp, or .gif at my AOL account). I will not be availble for contact after 5PM on the 8th until the 17th (Spring Break at last!!!), but other than that, feel free to email me with any inquiries, preferably at my AOL address: email_address_removed Jaime the DRAGON (who is most definitely female; despite all the talk about female Jammers, people are still asking me what my gender is!
