Not by a long shot! There are/were a good few in England and the rest of the UK. But I suspect that many of them didn't resubscribe to the new "ax" list after the "arastar" ytsejam went off the air, as they haven't posted since the changeover.

This is incorrect: the show on 3/21 will have Dionne Farris, which is a repeat from 5/11/95. The show on 3/22 will have Extreme, which is a repeat from 2/17/95. Also, I thought I'd mention that Stone Temple Pilots will be on a new episode on 3/29. > BTW...are you still pushing for DT to get on Letterman?

Look at the musical guests lately, and they either have new albums, new singles, or are doing relatively well on the charts. DT does not qualify in any of these categories right now. Even when DT's new album comes out, I still think it would be difficult to get them on Letterman. The only metal bands I've seen on Letterman are Megadeth and White Zombie, and they both had good chart status at the time. The only prog band I've seen on Letterman is Yes, and that was when Talk came out. I remember someone mentioning Saturday Night Live once, and that doesn't seem feasible, either. Writing to Late Night with Conan O'Brien seems like a more realistic and feasible operation, IMO. If he could be turned, he would become a powerful ally. Yes. Yes. He would be a great asset. Can it be done? He will join us or die... Soundcerely, G. Jack Thetgyi -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- G.

A great idea for all DT fans everywhere to be involved with. A video for ACoS would undoubtedly be the best idea in the world. From what I heard, the 'Jammers were the ones who encouraged the official release of ACoS to begin with. I'd say every DT fan should get their own concept for the greatest video to be made and see if the 'Jam can strike twice at DT and their record company, etc to fund it. I also noticed someone (sorry can't remember the name I read through about three or four days worth of 'Jammers mail) who is thinking about transcribing ACoS. In Guitar World a couple of months ago, in Petrucci's column he essentially gave the chord progression for the "Another World" part and a friend of mine figured out the amazing interplay of instruments just before "Another World" Stephen Kozma email_address_removed.ca My DT quote of the day: "Things are getting just a little bit scary, it's a wonder I can still breathe." ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Mar 1996 15:24:32 -0800 From: email_address_removed (RipZero ) To: email_address_removed Subject: Tesla!

Frank is no Petrucci, but he can play >nonetheless... he's a bit eccentric though, playing with his teeth, >behind his head, etc... :) yes tesla is one of my favorite bands to see live... possibly my total favorite because they just put out one hell of a good rock show. I think Tommy was in rehab a while ago, when i saw them i think they were playing with warrants ex guitarist or somethin' like that... that may be why he wasnt at the show... i'm not sure on that though... As far as Frank- yeah he's a great player, and i dont really measure him to petrucci because he plays that rock stuff that you dont see petrucci do either. They're both great guitarists nonetheless. so i'll second Dr X's motion to get out there and go see 'em if you get the chance. ~Rip ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Mar 1996 16:13:19 PST From: Mark Smeets To: email_address_removed Subject: Re: YTSEJAM digest 1360 Message-ID: ** Reply to note from email_address_removed 03/20/96 1:58pm -0800 Hi guys, I just wanted to say 2 things. 1)I have updated the list of jammers on my web page, those Jammers that do have web pages that want to be on my page, email me.

Im fine and finally done with all these ytsejam shirts (actually i've been done for quite a while but I was waiting to ensure that everything was okay and that all the orders got where they were supposed to be before I offer the extras out to you guys. Well I have some extras and they are for sale for the same price as the others where. Heres what I have left... Tee shirts: $15 + $3 (S&H) 8 XL 100% Black 1 L 100% Black 3 XL 100% maroon Sweat Shirts: $23 + $3 (S&H) 1 XL hooded 9 ounce maroon 1 XL hooded 9 ounce forest green 1 XL nohood 7.5 once maroon If your wondering, what they look like, they are totally different than Jason Giles made so if you have one of those you can still get one of these... They have a huge Majesty symbol on the back with DT's logo above it. On the front, "ytsejam" is centered across the chest in big letters in a courrier new font. Below it is "Dream Theater's Internet Mailing List" and below that is the new address both in smaller letters and a different font that "ytsejam". I promise you will be very happy with the shirts. The design on the front is VERY "eye catching" and I when ever I go into a store or the mall or at school or anywhere with people there, Hundreds of eyes are looking at my shirt!!! It just makes people look. I have because of this shirt told Dozens of peope about DT just cause they asked about my shirt!!!!! Its killer!!

The location will be the same as last year: Storybook Farm in Chapel Hill, NC. Directions for travel and hotel accomadations will be posted in a later update. TICKET INFO: Admission will be $20 a day at the gate. Advance weekend passes are available for $35 (price good until July 31, 1996). Send a check or money order to: Peter Renfro 207 South Elliott Road Chapel Hill, NC 27514 LINE-UP: The following bands are confirmed: TRISTAN PARK ILUVATAR GLASS HAMMER MASTERMIND DISCIPLINE CAST (from Mexico) ARS NOVA (from Japan) Other bands being contacted and/or considered: FRENCH TV CLOUD NINE SQUONK OPERA PENDRAGON TIMOTHY PURE former members of ECHOLYN SEASONS END 23rd HOUR TILES SPOCK'S BEARD COLLAGE ANTHONY PHILLIPS ANNIE HASLAM CAMEL SHADOW GALLERY FISH (!) CLIVE NOLAN/TRACY HITCHINGS IN THE CLUBS: There has been an over-whelming response of bands wishing to play at ProgDay. There is no way I can accomodate them all. If bands want to take advantage of this unique gathering of prog fans from around the world, I would recommend getting in touch with the LOCAL 506 CLUB and booking a show for that Friday, Saturday, or Sunday nights (Aug. 30, Aug. 31, Sept. 1). Their phone number is: (919) 942-5506. I have not contacted the club myself yet, but I will be more than happy to provide information and/or videos of ProgDay '95 to help convince the management that they should not pass up this opportunity. Since ProgDay ends at dusk, there should not be any conflict with a band playing in the club. Prepare yourselves for the ultimate PROG OVERLOAD!!! PROGDAY WEB-PAGE: I hope to have the official ProgDay web-page up and running in a month or so. Not only will it have up-to-the minute news, but photos, reviews, sound clips, and (hopefully) video clips! All of this provided by computer wizard extra-ordinaire, Craig Tucker! PROGDAY '96 VOLUNTEERS: I will have a list of duties for volunteers to sign up for in the next ProgDay update. For now--just spread the word! PROGDAY '95 VIDEO UPDATE: It looks like I will be able to put together a pretty nice 2-hour video from ProgDay '95. Final editing should be finished within the month. Special thanks to APeX for helping make this happen! I will post ordering details and track info as soon as the tapes are ready! PROGDAY '95 CD UPDATE: Actually I don't have anything new to report about the CD, except I hope it will be ready for ProgDay '96! I am still accepting pictures for the booklet if anyone out there still has any to contribute. SPECIAL THANKS: A special thank you goes out to all those who attended ProgDay '95 and cleaned up after themselves (which was practically everyone)! We had a small wedding reception at Storybook Farm yesterday and they trashed the picnic areas! Prog fans are certainly respectful and I really appreciate it. The landlord told me he had no problem with ProgDay '96 being held at Storybook Farm again!

There I am, at the Warfield, in the middle of a great show, when John M starts playing this kinda funky bass beat. It sounds vaguely familiar, but I don't recognize it totally, and neither does the audience, so we just ignore it. Then John P and Mike and Derek start up. It's sitting just on the edge of my memory, taunting me like one of those itches in the middle of your back. Then, James runs on stage and starts singing "Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk!" (translated from Labrie-ese) and we suddenly realize, it's Stayin' Alive! The audience starts screaming, trampling each other for the doors, people are getting mangled and all the while James is shouting "Ah Ah Ah Ah Stayin' Alive! Flickin' my Bicin' and everybody's a Chicken, Stayin Alive Stayin Alive!" or whatever and then I wake up screaming and the doctor's putting the straps on me again and telling the nurses to hide the rubber chickens and then everything's a blur as the medecine kicks in. __ /\ __ +-------------------------------------+ __\/__\/__ | ~Chris |-+ \_||_/ | For a boring homepage, web to: | | /__||__\ | http://www2.ucsc.edu/people/aspect/ | | // \ | \\ +-------------------------------------+ | \| +-------------------------------------+ ------------------------------ End of YTSEJAM Digest 1361 **************************
