Speaking of Queensryche, would anyone happen to have decent seats to the Camden, NJ show they want to get rid of? Because of getting home from school, I wasn't able to get them when they went on sale. I'm looking for good seats (not the kind I can get by getting them through TicketMaster right now). Why should you help me out? Because I can pay you a little more than most others (probably). >Easier said than done.

I had no idea it was so hard to find. It was very easy to find when I bought it in '94. (Now I understand why Mike Bahr wanted $25 for it.) >I was reading a post from the Queen list where someone posted >that Lars Ulrich is a better drummer than Neil Peart, on a techinal >level. Can you believe it? Lars is a better drummer than Neil Peart? Sure. In the same universe where Courtney Love has talent, Elvis Presley is the "king of rock and roll," and _Rolling Stone_ is a good magazine. Compared to many of those commonly-held beliefs, the "Lars is better" argument is very plausible. But not when someone actually uses their head. (Not that many people do nowadays.) >Penis Reduction > >A man went to see a doctor because of a very high, squeaky, >annoying voice.

Maybe that explains why I have such a low voice. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 03 Jun 1997 23:08:59 -0400 From: "Jeremy P.

Just *try* to tell me that GNR, Allman Brothers, or Sabbath (three of my favorite bands) are prog. I think she sucks a big fat cock. Half the time she just whines and shrieks, and when she tries to *gasp* actually carry a tune, she demonstrates her *complete* lack of any sense of melody.

It's from October 1992. It's from the very begining of the I&W's tour. James sounds AMAZING on this one. He's doing all sorts of extra high notes and stuff like that. Sounds quality is pretty decent too. Not a soundboard. Set list : Under a Glass Moon OAMOT Surrounded Status Seeker (mislabeled - it's actually PMU) Ytsejam guitar solo (moon bubbbles?)

That's pretty stupid of him - he could have ruined his vocal chords permanently. Should have brought back Charlie Dominici to fill in until he was better, then we could hear him sing Innocence Faded!

He constantly lied to me saying he sent the replacement or that my address was wrong and it was sent back and had me waiting for nothing for weeks (while I sent his tape his right away). I'd rather be told I'm being screwed than this sniveling baby bullshit! And to top it all off, he assured me this wouldn't be another "Pat vs. Al pt. II".......friggin' asshole. The second guy (Joshua) even acknowledged that the concerts (two tapes) I sent him were great and he would send mine soon. After repeated e-mails asking where mine were I'm convinced this prick just left school and couldn't care less. So chalk up another two deadbeats who don't have the brainpower to press "Play" and "Record" at the same time and come back two hours later. Its flakes like this that screws it up for everyone else.

Quality is damn good, must be soundboard, judging by the lack of crowd noise ? My faves are the Yes medley it smokes and 'In The Dead Of Night' is great too. Strangely missing from the tape is 'Happiness Is A Warm Gun', I would have liked to have heard that one. Anyone have a copy with 'Happiness' on it ?

Still waiting for DT cd's from the record label. Try out the Internet radio, it's cool but you need Real Audio 3.0 installed. http://www.hardradio.com/ I suppose sending an email will encourage the station to play DT.

Yes!! I was going to comment about them when somebody mentioned them on the 'jam a couple months back.
