Message-ID: Now, I would pay to see this: It's a Ytsecon - Bafu and AirDance tie the knot and become King and Queen of Ytsejam and DT plays the reception! Greg. (Not to be confused with Bafu, YtseBen, a Chew brother, BABS, etc...) ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 7 Mar 96 16:57:54 +0100 From: "Antoni Krasinski" To: email_address_removed Subject: new jammer Message-ID: Hello! I'd like to introduce myself once more since my first posting didn't appear in the jam. I'm the one of two Polish jammers. I read almost all digests since november and I have to say this is a good time for me. This list gave me an opportunity to know about DT more than I could find it any other way. I know that Mike Portnoy sometimes reads jams, so listen Mike: It would be cool to make the next Dream Theater tour a bit bigger than the previous ones and play somewhere in eastern parts of Europe, for example in Poland. Here are also some people who love Dream Theater. :) So, I'm with you people! :) Bye for now, and.... jam on!

Malmsteen..or other cool guitar players..not that guy from the smashing pumkings..i mean popularity definately does not equal quality or talent..neither does record sales or airplay... just my 2 cents Seize The Day MTFBWY email_address_removed email_address_removed ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 6 Mar 1996 18:05:04 -0400 From: email_address_removed To: email_address_removed Subject: Hey..

So if anyone wants to see GC, should also check out Anthrax shows.

I was looking for 'One Vision' there and totally forgot Flash Gordon =(. It's the only album fron Queen I don't own. (Except that first live thingy, but i think i have a dub of that somewhere). So rub it in, will ya !! =) 2. Okie...I was caught saying bad thing about Yngwie. I love 'Far Beyond the Sun'. Makes me shudder all the time. Actually he does try different things. Just listen to 'Bedroom Eyes' from Eclipse, kinda bluesy. Sooo...It's very immature and selfist to rant on a player for not playing the stuff I want him to play. I apologize. I got my ytse-shirt !!!! It's cool, it's hot, IT'S PURPLE !!! Thanks Trey....I love ya ! =) Uhhh...No kewl quote here. Not even one doomed attempt at humor in the above. Sigh, guess I need to start posting drunk.

The name of the club is Escapades. I'm not quite sure how to get there (I'm going on a bus trip up with the band) but It's a fairly well known club and directions should be easy to come by. For the people who missed the last post Atlantis is a great prog rock/metal band who are trying to establish a following in the area. They're alot like DT and even do a snipet cover of TTT. I highly recomend checking these guys out. THe show is all ages and cost is $5 21+, $7 all others. I think this could be a good place for area jammers to get together and hear some great orig. prog. If you go look for the guy in the Home For the Holidays tour shirt and Kappa Delta Rho baseball cap....that's me. Hope to see you there.

Message-ID: Hey people... Jaime has told me that every once in a while, someone keeps asking where I am. Whoever this person is, please stop - she threatened to kill ME because of it. Anyway, contrary to popular belief, I am not quite dead yet. Life's been a strangely horrific epic of late. If you went to the Birch Hill show, and saw me there with my girlfriend...it's open season on her. We're done. I'm not working at the radio station anymore, and I'm pretty much sitting around on my ass waiting for calls back about my radio demo tape. Other than that, life couldn't be better! If you're looking for me, you see the address. =) I'll resubscribe one of these days.

Great picture quality, Petrucci going off, and alot of other great music. I'll pass his e-mail address along hopefully he won't mind.

Message-ID: well, except for one unfortunate soul, i'm glad to see no one michelangeloed. mac's are michelangelo proof?? really?!?!?!?! to the fellow who mentioned that, please email me with a detailed explanation. mind you, i'm now computer genius, but i am fascinated (thus, very curious)as to how this is so. thank you. the man of the living colour bass debate- ok, ok, so you like muzzy better than doug. apples and oranges. that's cool. if you ever really want to give doug a last chance listen, pick up a living colour import called "dread." it is amazing. about 13-14 live tracks, 4 unplugged, and 1 (or was it 2? i left that cd at home) new studio songs (one a prince cover). it is great stuff going on there. man, i just got birch hill tape. not bad at all!!! cool! ummm....................ytsecon in ny! yay!!!!!!!!!! fuck jersey! well, kidding about jersey. but ytsenewyork! c'mon, what a great advertisement slogan. ummm.....the state of popular music today. yeah, it sucks. yeah, i know. yeah, cheese is the dominant chord in our pop culture. "we celebrate mediocrity, we worship crap." -screaming headless torsos but you know what? we're the minorities here. and we might as well revel in our own whatever we call it, because as long as the suckas have the money and the emptyvision, we'll never get anywhere with our musick and our message. but oddly enough, as much as i hate pop music (most of it, anyways), there is actually some valid shit to learn from them (in some cases, it's "never listen to it or them again"). but alas........no more talk from me about that. i got a kick out of the guy who made the stink about "what's the big deal with dt?" that was funny. a 1st lady for the jam? she must be able to marry bafu.........or at least really love wild kobas! "....not only will you get the desenx burger, but YOU will love me!" yngwie...........he said yngwie. re: duran duran (i think this goes to marc respass) duran duran is actually pretty cool. there's this guitarist, his name is warren cucurullo, as in, "of course i'll introduce you to warren." as ex- zappa guitarist. as in crackheaded guitar boy. he's cool. though(t) industry in da house, funky fresh! if you happen to hear that thought industry is coming to town go see them!!! anyone going to go see them @ the batcave on mar. 16 (nyc)> i will probably be decked in some black attire (it is a gothic club, and supposedly, you HAVE to wear black, or they beat you or something) this all came to me after reading about the cowboys tour dates, and something about metal blade mentioned. to karri kiviluoma To: email_address_removed Subject: (U)Testament, et. al. Message-ID: I got into Testament about 7 years ago as a sophomore in college. Besides The Ritual, definitely check out Practice What You Preach and Souls of Black. These two discs are two of the heaviest in my collection (check out "The Ballad", "Practice...", "Greenhouse Effect"). THEY ROCK! Chuck Billy and Alex Skolnick stand out. If you're in Chicago and want an alternative to MTV, check out Ch. 19 on Friday and Saturday nights at about 8 p.m. Great local vid show highlighting local bands and national artists. It's hosted by the guy who MC's Rockabilly night at DejaVu (Lincoln Park, first Thurs. of the month). Talk about a crazy night out. Anyway, a few weeks back, the show was a tribute to glam band of the late 80s early 90s. Kick Tracee, Winger, Poison, Vixen, etc. It was great. And as the man said....You may think it's cheesy, now, but you enjoyed it for a reason. It's good time rock and roll...."It's music, not a term paper." It brought me back to the early days of college when Ratt, Dokken, early Extreme and Tesla ruled the CD player (sniff....sigh).These kids today....I used to ha ve to walk through ten feet of snow to get to the record store....uphill.....BOTH WAYS!!! Finally, African-American artists on Unplugged: I believe someone asked whan was the last time you saw that, and someone else responded Lenny Kravitz about a year ago. A YEAR AGO!!! With all of the black artists they play videos of? I'm sure BoysIIMen must've been on..LLCoolJ...Arrested Development. But what a lack of representation considering how many African-American artists show up otherwise....I mean, Tony Bennett? What a joke of a vehicle!(DAMN, Idalis is F OOOOIIIIIIIIINE!!!). I only catch the MTV once in a while, but I'm sure this argument is pretty close to correct. Anyway....LATER- Steve p.s. BABS!!

Message-ID: Message Tranferral- Hello, It's the Eternal Destroyer again! I was wondering about one thing. Exactly how old are the members of DT? They all went to Berklee right out of H.S., right? And they 'dropped out' 2 years later in 1986. So, I'm figuring 29-30. Am I correct in my assumption? Please Confirm. **********************VID SCREEN***************** * /\__/\ * * {[[|O O|]]} * | '' | * * VvvV * * |VV| * * \__/ * ************************************************* "Oh, Humans?

Message-ID: <><><><><><><> "Stop your grinnin', and drop your linen!" <><><><><><><> Hey everyone!!! I got home last night and collapsed on my bed in a heap of sore (very!), exhausted, dehydrated flesh. The reason for this state: WHITE ZOMBIE & FILTER! Ouch! I have to say I am very impressed. They played last night at the Compton Terrace outside of Chandler, AZ. It was one of the last gigs on the tour, so if your interested, check 'em out before it goes away! Altogether though, these guys kicked some (and my) serious @$$!! J. played a great show, much better than I've ever given him credit, and the bassist, Sean...oh mann...I'm in love with this woman! She has a smile that would melt ice in Stygia. WOW! I am in serious need of a massuse just now! Some other things: 1) I say Yngviwxe (or however the hell you spell it! :) ) last year and although the guy was a great musician...I can't help but think he's just a fat, womanizing slob! 2) "Dungeons & Dragons" was one of the best, but "Transformers" was the inspiration for my life! I'd wake up seven hours early to catch this show, and unfortunately in Vermont, everythings about three months late. But still, it was without question, the best! ("Snorks" was cool, too!) 3) I just cut up my BEST BUY card, and I reccomend the same to everyone who has one! These things are an evil addiction, brought on by the Great Old Ones to clear the earth for their return. Basically just the result of $80 of CDs in three days. (Ouch!) 4) ***DT CONTENT*** Sorry! ;) 5) Lastly, on the 7-disc: 1 - "When Dream and Today Unite" Majezty (jus kiddin) 2 - "Wish" The Cure 3 - "Short Bus" Filter 4 - "Collective Soul" Collective Soul 5 - "Live at Brixton Academy" Faith No More 6 - "Manic Nirvana" Robert Plant 7 - "Inside Out" Fates Warning Gonna check out Iron Maiden/Fear Factory at the Electric Ballroom in Tempe on APRIL 1.
