Don't drag us down with you just because >The band has trust in our names? Who could be so naive, to borrow a phrase? I can't see any way to better phrase that in the context of what i was saying. But you took that in the wrong direction. What I meant was that it's not fair for one person's actions to bring shame upon the entire group, and that's what has happened before, and will happen. Nothing to do with trusting our names, but rather anyone acting out on the jam is effectively acting out in the name of the jam. Is that any more clear? We are all representatives of the jam when we assosiate ourselves with it. Thus, if one jammer decides to break the request DT set before us, it's bad for the whole group. Chris W.

I totally agree with ya on this Kevin. I personally think that people get sooooo used to hearing a certain style from a band, that when the new stuff comes out, they can't handle it. Every band is NOT going to make an album EXACTLY like their last. It's just a human fact. Just because the album sounds different than the last, doesn't mean that the band is changing their sound, style, whatever. Shit...it took me at least two weeks to get used to the sound of Awake ;).

Suprising is one thing, but as long as you don't lose yourself in the process. Bowie, Beatles, SGarden, Cult, MTV, etc. hmmm....couldn't there be some QR in there please? Oh yeah, PL? One song that's all. Dammit, this is supposed to be a QR album, not a redigest-revomited best-of-what-works album. And the comment about sound is quite crappy: "relying on the notes"??! what the heck is that supposed to mean in the 90s where sound is more and more an ingredient in success compared to pure musicianship? Don't fool yourself, be there good or bad sound, there's always been a real band playing, and a hell of a band who I bet don't give donkey's shit about relying on whatsoever. Please re-read what you've just wrote before pressing the SEND button next time. I think on the contrary to what you wrote, that QR have been more and more adventurous on the sound side and diverse album after album. I insist however that QR are playing safe on the genre side, and that's the the most unsafe attitude to have. Cheers, .............................................

Nothing can be done to you for owning them. It is illegal though, to SELL bootlegs, however most people get around this by selling "used imported live CDs." Beats my how that works.... 2) I do not own any bootlegs, except for a KISS bootleg of the last studio album with Bruce Kulick and Eric Singer that was never released. I really really really really want to get some high quality Rush and DT boots for a REASONABLE price. Problem is, none of the record stores I know of the sell "imports" and bootlegs have anything from DT, and I cant find much from Rush either. ANyone got anything they want to sell??

Message-ID: How about shortening the damn signatures a TIIIINY bit..... It´s kinda mindwreckin´ to have to page down til you drop down dead before the next damn message..... To the guy who seem to have problems with the word "Proggressive", I can only say: You can believe whatever you think. If you want VanHalen to be counted as a Prog-band, well....Do so, but my opinion is that the word proggressive only fit to those bands usually discussed here, like DT, FW, QR, and so on...... To the guy with the "Devil & the Angel on his shoulders"....Hmmm....aren´t you the nifty one....Who tought you that??? No offence.....I kinda liked it.....=) Last but not least.....How about the DT-FW gig in Germany...is this confirmed?? "Still the orchestra plays...."

While I was there I got a ticket for Loudness Thursday night at the Edge in beautiful Palo Alto. Well, not that anyone *really* cares, but this is Loudness' ONLY American concert appearance. Tix are only $7 and one of the opening bands features Brian Wheat (formerly of Tesla). So if you're bored thursday night and Must See TV has become Must Miss TV then drop on by for some Japanese Hair Metal. Scott ps. Opening band tonight was Vicious Rumours and they was incredible! *************************************************************************** Kill Kill Kill..... the White Man; Kill him until he is dead.

I just picked up a used copy last this week and I think it could possibly be one of the best albums Purple has ever done. I can't remember the last time I heard a bands sound change so much by changing guitar players, but Steve's influence is all over this cd. Damn it kicks ass!

Could this be the Swedish band DRAIN? With the album "Horror wrestling"? If so, I would just like to warn everyone that they sound very much like Alice In Chains (not necessarily a bad thing). Caught Motorhead live yesterday. It's amazing how they still rock after all these years. As for DT blowing Megadeth off the stage, I'd have to say YES! I like Megadeth, but let's face it; they are pretty boring live. oOo If a man could pass through Paradise in a dream, and have a flower presented to him as a pledge that his soul had really been there, and if he found that flower in his hand when he awoke - Aye, and what then? oOo Niklas ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 20 Mar 1997 14:48:43 +0200 From: "Student Account (95)" To: email_address_removed Subject: Re: YTSEJAM digest 2362 Message-ID: > Loreena McKennitt: She does all sorts of stuff, from Celtic traditional to > her own material in that vein to putting poetry to music, such as Tennyson's > "Lady of Shalott," which is just *phenomenal*.

Now, the ZIP file is on my WWW site. To stay within the 1MB limitation that Netcom has, I had to take out the setup-install program, which takes up about 500kB. It does have the CD program, the required DLL, and some documentation to get you started. The lyric file page is also up and running. Most of the links had to be fixed when they were transfered to my site and they hopefully all work now. E-mail me if you have any problems or questions. :) Lauren Lauren's home page at http://pw2.netcom.com/~l_glenn or http://pw1.netcom.com/~l_glenn ------------------------------- Featuring the newest version of RQ's CD Player 0.925 which can show lyrics as the CD is being played. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 20 Mar 1997 08:39:28 -0800 From: Andrew Forcier To: email_address_removed Subject: HALLELUJAH!!!! Message-ID: Hey kids! My esteemed thanks to the fellow who gave the Nuno show info! Since I blew my last opportunity at the Birch Hill, now I get a second chance I don't deserve to see Nuno live! The fortuitousness of my reading the jam right after I posted my apologies to others. He's also playing the Middle East in Philly the next day (April 11). Have to decide which show I want to see. But anyway: how does one get tickets to the Mercury Lounge? They aren't on the TicketBastard website. No one wants to make me an ACOS mix tape? *bats eyelashes* Don't tell me I'm going to have to go out and buy a bootleg!? Who can I provoke here... I have nothing in return except money and the Mind Control bootleg. Not that I'm selling the latter, but I can tape it. Still hard to believe I found it used for $11. hehe... Much delayed album review: Collective Soul's Disciplined Breakdown. For those who read the review on the jam that this sounds like the last album, that's exactly right. Their sound overall hasn't changed though I don't think they're songs sound that much alike, which to me is a good thing. They're reliable for good blues rock. The two real standouts so far are Precious Declaration and Blame. Both great songs. As usual Ross Childress tinkers with his lead tones over the course of the album, giving each song a very indivdual feel and texture. I really like this guys melodic soloing and restraint in most situations. Reminds me almost of Eliot Easton. I recommend the album if you liked the last one. At the same time I got the Jedi sndtrk and GC's Space In Your Face (latter on jam recommendations). Haven't given either a good enough listen to warrant a review. But am I the only one who had hoped that the symbol for the Alliance would be the design on the CD this time? (SW: Death Star, ESB: Imperial insignia). Oh, well! Happy jamming!
