This guy gets better and better with each tour. He's got his regular touring band with him (Stu Hamm & Jonathan Mover), and he puts on an amazing show (guitar clinic, that is). I'll be in loge row B (wearing a DT shirt); come join us for a beer and some killer guitar!

I think this one ranks among the strangest we have yet heard. Didilidoo Didilidoo Didilidoo I went to a Dream Theater concert....it was at some restaurant or something. A lot of people were there and I was right behind one of those glass block windows or something.....then I was watching the band. After a song was finished--Okay...this is the strange part--- Mike Portnoy leaned over and made out with my math teacher. Don't ask, because I don't even know..or want to, for that matter. Ever notice that sometimes when you dream about somebody, that person may look like somebody else, but in your dream you know it's the first person? Or am I the only one? <----most probable answer Have you guys seen Metallica lately? They CUT their HAIR! ALL of 'em. They look like a bunch of freaks! No offenses James...hey wait! I said...whoa, what are you doing with that hammer...hey NO!! AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Kirk looks like a clown that took his makeup off. >The reason I want >to make these changes is that I want to make this thing BIG, I mean REALLY >BIG. All RIGHT!!! So EVERYone will be there! Well...almost everyone. WAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >"arrives the slient man" > "you smell the silent fart" > > > its gross and stupid You got THAT right.... :-? >I highly doubt members of Aerosmith went there, although they >could be honorary degree holders. I highly doubt Candlebox and Collective >Soul also, but it could be possible. > Let me reiterate......just because somebody DOESN'T play anything super-hard/complicated doesn't mean they CAN'T. As for the .SIG WARS OF YTSEJAM ISLE....you guys have WAY too much free time. ;-) I think (therefore I am) that the Surrounded intro sounds better with piano than with the sound from the album...just seems less, and I hate to say it, cheeeeeeeeeeeeesy. :-) THE ULTIMATE YTSE-PRODUCT: The Ytse-Signal.

It's not _just_ about the money... >AHH!! finally someone answered me with something i wanted to hear! If >the bands dont make music for the money why then must there be awards >for best album etc...?? I never said that bands don't play music for the money...I just said that it wasn't the sole reason. and what do music awards have to do with making money? Many bands don't give a sh*t about awards...oh sure it would be nice, but do you actually think bands go into the studio and say "Let make an album that will win a Grammy..." I don't seem to think so. > WHY SHOULD IT MATTER WHAT I THINK ABOUT DT OR >OTHER BANDS??? ummm.....It doesn't. >I AM JUST EXPRESSING AN OPINION (WHICH I THOUGHT WAS THE >SOLE REASON FOR THIS FORUM..)

Correct >me if I'm wrong, but Live Sh*t: Binge & Purge was a live album. So you've >heard the new album? How is it? Regardless of whether or not Metallica released another album, there is no way they would have ended up sounding like Death, imo. I seriously doubt Metallica would ever put out anything that was as complex as Death's "Symbolic." I admit that I count myself among those who were extremely disappointed with Metallica's direction following "Justice" and this post really doesn't have a point. I guess I just don't consider Metallica and Death to be comparable - a bit like the apples and oranges argument. ANYWAY.... 2. A while ago I sent off a check for the new Hades CD to a company which was soliciting it. The name of the company was Black Pumpkin Records, and they were the label which was to have released the disc. This was in November or December. The check was cancelled and I received - you guessed it - nothing. Does anyone know anything about this label? A phone number? Anything? 3. Is was browsing through the cdnow telnet site and I saw a listing for Triumph - "In the Beginning" or some- thing like that. Has anyone heard of this? Is it a re-release, (which would make sense because they already had the "Classics" compilation) or is it something new with the "Edge of Excess" line-up? I thought I had heard a rumor about Rik Emmett returning since his solo career did NOTHING. 4. I highly recommend the purchase of the import cd "Imaginations From the Other Side" by Blind Guardian if any of you enjoy the power metal genre. The music is comparable to that of Gamma Ray (I guess) and the singer somehow reminds me of a more gruff Robin McAuley (MSG). Very well played, with memorable arrangements and some progressive elements. It was worth the 20-odd dollars I paid. If you shade towards the heavier side of DT, this may be for you. 5. That's it! -- Kevin (email_address_removed) GO PACKERS...GO WINGS.... 51 and counting!!! ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 10 Mar 1996 18:21:38 EST From: email_address_removed (MS DEBBIE M VESTAL) To: email_address_removed Subject: Re: YTSEJAM digest 1341 Message-ID: Steve Wrote: >Ummmmm....I like the detail in the art, but can we stop the sig. wars?

Did I hear someone ask what Korn is like live? They RULE!!!!!!! On Friday, I got a friend who was friendly with the lighting tech. get me on the guest list for a sold out show at the Ogden(coolest venue in town). We went, we saw, we moshed. Jonathan gives a totally psycho show, and all the other members take the kind of show they're into and combine it. It's so powerful. Later the lighting tech. got us all backstage where I met Fieldy. Cool dude. We also hung around and got to meet Head and get autographs. I don't care wheather you like Korn or not, they are cool guys. At least Head and Fieldy are. Thanks a lot Zane, if you're there. I whish I had known about the DT favorite song vote. I would have said Take the Time. Totally some diverse guitar parts. Definitly my favorite.
