If there is anyone out there who is not on Devon's list, please email me personaly with your email and instrument. When this list is complete in the next couple of days we will then decide on groups and songs. I want to establish who all is involved before we get any further though. So, if we don't know about you, fill me in within the next couple of days and we will get the ball rolling. Thanks!

There was a show on a weekend night called Radio Piracy, later Metal Modulation, that would play nothing but pure METAL; there was even the occasional Dream Theater thrown in, usually "PMU" from LATM. I'm really sorry to hear they've gone alternative. While I happen to like some alternative music, there are already enough stations playing it - when I was last in town, in June, the station behind WCMF, Rock-It (I forgot the call numbers) was totally alternative. Variety is the spice of life, donchaknow. (They obviously don't.) I don't even listen to the radio here at all, except for my alarm clock, and I'm not coherent enough in the morning to care what's on. Our college station is pretty worthless at the moment as well, seeing as most people can't even get the signal *on campus*! :} Jaime the Dragon "your vulture's candor your casual slander you murder his memory..."

I have two albums that Reinert played on ("Human" by Death and "Focus" by Cynic) and judging by the direction that Reinert was heading in on the Cynic CD, he should be ready to just tear shit up on the drums in this CD. That dude is one of the smoothest-sounding and precise drummers I've ever heard. Couple that with his raw speed and polyrhythmic abilities and you've got a master!!! All-instrumental, yessssss!

Sorry for the lack of DTC, all, but the last time I got this excited about a release was ACoS, and the only people who I know would even give a shit about this kind of music are right here on this list. Later, all!! Younis Hilal P.S.

Got a few things !) Ive seen a bunch of talk about DT doing an ACoS video. Well, I just got finished watching Braveheart for the second time and I'm currently crying like a baby. I have no idea why, but I'm feeling like my entire family just died. Strange, hhuh? Anyway, Braveheart captures a whole theme of Carpe Diem, basically the theme of ACoS. If they did a video, they could grab some ideas from that film. definately gove some emotions to it all. PITCH - If you haven't seen BH yet ==> What the fuck are you doing still reading this...SEE IT!!! OK...moving on... @) I'm kinda slow on the horse because I never thought of it till last week, but Ive seen talk of it before. Regarding any of the DT shows this past X-mas, does anyone have good copies of the show to dub for trade, cash, favours? Let me know, please!

Miasma Message-ID: About the Rush tribute CD... >What other opinions do y'all have out there in Ytse-land? And who else >might be on the record? I'd love to see DT do Xanadu, Jacob's Ladder, or Cygnus X-1 AND Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres back-to-back, that would be absolutely incredible and a new exercise in self-indulgence! >To those of you who don't like/get my humor...yep...you guessed it...you're >an asshole. I don't like your humor, and I think you're the a$$hole. >I truely believe that Dream Theater will never get that much air play... >But I do find it a shame that radio and MTV alike both most likely use >that formula on what they play or not. MTV has played long videos by Michael Jackson, "Smooth Criminal", and the long version of Metallica's "Unforgiven". They've also played "Pull Me Under", "Take The Time", and "Lie", but not anymore since there is no hard rock/heavy metal program. I do see your point however. >Oh yeah I got engaged while I was down there to the most spectacular >woman in the world so everyone else keep your hands off. She goes to >Georgetown law Do you mean that you got engaged to someone you met in Cancun, Gandalf? Congratulations!

Or maybe you were a shoe in a previous life... >Subject: Mike Bahr's limited CD >How about letting Jim Colberg get one so he can offer it up? Am I out >of line here? Just a suggestion. I would probably be against this. The point of the limited CD is to give thanks to those people who've supported Mike the whole time, or helped him in his projects. I would have no problem with setting up a high-quality tape tree, though. >Subject: Acos Video >...and in the end having the father sitting with his son watching a >breathtaking scene. I don't know about the rest of you, but Forrest Gump immediately came to mind: towards the end of the movie, the scenes with Forrest and his son. >...and i still think the sound is a Tie Fighter (heeh) im watching too >much Star Wars arent I? How about instead of a plane crash, there is a TIE Fighter crash? There's nothing wrong with watching too much Star Wars, you have to get ready for the next trilogy! >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 don't think the record company would finance a video for a twenty-three minute song that is on an EP with covers. The idea for a home video of the "Uncovered" show was tossed about before, but nothing ever materialized. I don't think any record company would finance such a project unless the artist was of superstar status. I'm not saying DT aren't "superstars", to us they are, but to their record company and sales-wise, they still a have a ways to go. Your insight serves you well. Bury your feelings deep down, Stephen. They do you credit. But they could be made to serve the Emperor. >there was talk about who would be touring with megadeth for the next >cd, I believe someone mentioned DT..come to think of it, that would be a >very cool show. Dream Theater and Megadeth on tour together. Any thoughts? No! I can't stand the group of wankers known as Megadeth. I highly doubt I would go (I'd wait for DT to headline), and even if I did go, I'd leave as soon as DT was done and the house lights came back on. Before all you 'Deth fans flame me, remember, this is my opinion. >acos is such a legend i think the more we mess with it possible the more >we're killing it... just my thoughts... I agree with you, Rip, and I don't think it will ever see the light of day, as I've stated before. >PITCH - If you haven't seen BH yet ==> What the fuck are you doing still >reading this...SEE IT!!! Sorry, I didn't catch Bruce Hornsby (who also went to Berklee) this summer. Hope everyone who hasn't had their spring break yet has a safe and relaxing one, I know I will! Soundcerely, G.

There is a new CD club out there called CD Head Quarters, or CD HQ. Their opening deal sounded good, so I sent in a card from a magazine I picked up somewhere. That was January 3. Now it's March 22, and after 3 long distance calls to Indiana, I finally have a resolution. They claim they sent out the package twice, but neither has reached my house. They also claimed that the problem dealt with my address, which I know was correct because I checked it several times. Bottom line: they fucked up (sorry).So how did they resolve the problem? They just terminated the account, and told me if I move to a NEW ADDRESS, that I could try to join again! In contrast, in mid February I re-upped with Columbia House (end result: 14 CDs for about $15 incl. S&H). When I went home for spring break the first week of March, there they were. No problem. So, am I saying don't join CD HQ? No. I just wanted to let people know how they treated me, so they wouldn't end up in the same situation. For the record, they did have _Awake_ in their magazine ad (in a section called "Music to be Pierced By"), so there is the DT content! Sorry about the space. I'll shut up now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- "You're a sweet talking smiler, Jonathan Byrne a bonafide beguiler.
