Message-ID: Hi! >YOU WILL DIE! >I WILL KILL YOU! One single mention of Slayer on the Jam and this is the result ;-)) Anyway, it was about music, at least. If you want to read something about Dream Theater, scan the news pages of the official page at rsabbs.com, or at the THE MIRROR pages for all German fans.

I just knew that this would appear and that people would want to hear this 8-track stuff... :) Well, what do you expect... I naturally can't send this tape to anyone. Don't even think about selling or trading it. This is for the record companies only because they want to know what we are doing all the time... :) This doesn't mean, that I wouldn't WANT to give this stuff away. I'd really like to get some opinions from people outside the band. But I'm just not allowed to do it. Copyright and stuff... Sorry, people. Bye.

I want to buy the 'Shadow of The moon' the 1st album of the new project Blackmore's night, and I would like to hear some opinions. I know that is a girl singing (Candice Night), and is an accouistic album with renascence and baroque melodies. Well I know almost everything about the album, but I would like to know some opinions. Next months will be full of choices, the new of Gamma Ray, Malmsteen, Savatage, DT, Virgin Steele, Manowar Live, Running Wild (maybe), ...

Message-ID: With all this hype and hoopla...I must say, you've all driven me to something I thought I'd never admit. Well, I'm going to take a stand and say, I am Derek Sherinian's blonde, gay lover. Yep that's right. A guitarist and a keyboardist in the throes of lust. I offered my services to James, but he insisted that he stay at his caribou farms...he's enjoying himself far too much for a guitarist to take care of his sexual needs. How many conservative jammers have I disgusted yet? How many conservatives listen to Dream Theater, for that matter? Yeah, I'm generalizing with the term, "Conservatives," 'cuz that's the way I am! *Big-ass middle finger fling* Heh! DTC AND homosexual content in one grand note! Bwaha! I don't mean to say that I'm conservative...I'm more of a well. If I'm porkin' the keyboardist from Dream Theater, I wouldn't call myself that, would you? Speakin' of sex and ackwardness, I juss saw this re-run (I never saw it when it first aired) of Loveline with that comedian dude Bobcat (forgot last name...oh well)....that had to be the funniest thing I've seen on TV in a LOOOOOONG time! 'Course, the radio show's still superior to the Money TV version. Busted a gut I did. There are still a couple wardrobe numbers I wouldn't mind seein' the band in once in a while. If Petrucci, or anybody in the band for that matter, could swap between the GI Joe shirt, a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles shirt, and a Voltron shirt, I think that'd rule! Oh wait...they're a generation BEFORE the Ninja Turtles.... One last note, Bafu, for some odd reason, Derek seems to keep calling your name when he climaxes. *shrug* Flame away my friends, or just...be a flamer! :) Peace be with you and GOD BLESS! ~Eckie ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 4 Jul 1997 02:43:16 -0700 (MST) From: durnik To: email_address_removed Subject: Michael Coghlan Message-ID: You know, I'm genuinely disappointed in some of you Jammers tonight. Michael Coghlan's opinions may not be popular, and I don't necessarily agree with any of them, but he has a backbone... a spine... he knows how he feels and he sticks to it. Most people are so spineless, they stay safely on the PC bandwagon so nobody will think they're "insensitive" or "evil". White liberal guilt. (before anyone jumps on my politically, remember that I'm a registered libertarian, and that throws most of your arguments against me out the window). Think for yourselves, people. And when someone actually has the nuts to stick with what they believe in, it's a damned crying shame that the rest of you have to rip and tear at him like a bunch of MTV-News anchors. Are you all so dedicated to the PC standard?? This isn't NDTC either. Our favourite bands, by and large, represent a state of being that isn't popular these days. Kids today want angst, anger, fear, and slackness (is that a word?)... they want to listen to NIN, Marilyn Manson, Green Day, and so forth. Everything that our music speaks for, those bands speak against. Everything our bands speak against, those bands embrace. We are the dedicated followers of intricate, melodic (Dream Theater), historically individualist (Rush), heavily spiritual (King's X), positive, motivated, and dedicated (Queensryche), and otherwise generally pro-active and pro-existence bands and lifestyles. We're in this life for the long haul. We don't blame everyone else for our troubles. We don't look to the fates or to Satan or to blind luck for our fortunes... we carve them out ourselves, and some of us seek the help of a divine being along the way. Just the fact that you're hardcore enough of a fan of DT to be on the Jam tells me that you can respect the position of someone with an unpopular opinion, and that you know that perhaps there are times when the right way isn't the way you thought it was. And you know that sometimes you're right, even though nobody agrees with you. I'm willing to bet that's how M.C. feels _right now_. That being said, I think you all ought to take back the stones you threw at Michael, and keep them as ammo... we'll need them to defend our beliefs and lifestyles as the world slides further toward the sewer. - Mike Bahr - email_address_removed - http://www.goodnet.com/~durnik PS. Please don't anyone think I'm a doomsayer... I'm in this for the fun of it too. But I'll be double-dog-damned if I'm going to let my opinions be trampled upon... or watch the same happen to those of someone else. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 4 Jul 1997 02:53:43 PST From: Mark Smeets To: email_address_removed Subject: Re: Use the man (NDTC) Message-ID: ** Reply to note from email_address_removed 07/04/97 01:48am -0700 Roger, The intro to deth's Use the man is a song called Needles and Pins by the Searchers.

They played on the second stage there. If you haven't heard Mastermind then you should definitly check this show out...they are un fucking believable...I was blown away the first time I saw them when they opened for Joe Satriani at the Electric Factory.....and then to see them at the Rush show was such a treat...anyway if any of you get a chance definitly try to check this show out...I will be there with a few of my friends from another great local prog band...(by the way when I say local I mean south jersey).....Atlantis...well that's all for me...Cant' wait for the new DT album.....

Message-ID: >oh, and just one thing to consider... i'd love to see what kind of >response someone would get if they said "i'm not black, but i have >strong opinions about those that are".... think about that for a >moment. I'm not trying to start a flame war here, but that comment has nothing to do with anything we've been talking about. How often does someone one day decide "hmm I think I'll be black." Once again, I'm not saying i like/don't like or agree/don't agree with being gay, I'm just saying that being gay and being black are in no way analogous to each other, and I have quite a few black friends that would take offense at that. I really hope skadz jumps in on this topic real quick. in other news, I was ICQ chatting with 2 of our good friends that aren't with us anymore namely KorgX3 and Rip, and we added something to the "buttered cat theory" which you all may or may not be familiar with. in case of the latter, i'll explain: cats always land on their feet. bread/toast always lands butter side down (according to Murphy's law). therefore, when you butter the back of a cat and drop it, it does not land at all. It just... floats. that's the buttered cat theory. well, we added another hypothetical tidbit. since in all multi-story plumbing systems turds flow uphill, we concluded (using our infinite wisdom/boredom) that if you attach (velcro, staples, or i guess you could just squish it on there, although if it mixes with the butter it could be counter-productive) a turd to the cat while it's floating, it will actually begin to float up! how far up depends on the size of the turd, but it is recommended that you only use the turds of small animals, because if you were to use a Bafu size turd, it could very well send the poor feline into the stratosfere. we also discussed the conspiricy that MTV and Guitar World magazine are employing in order to turn the average musician/music lover into a grunge musician/grunge music lover, but that theory is just, well, a little too far fetched for me. :) woot ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 4 Jul 1997 16:24:47 100 From: "Michael Kohsiek" To: email_address_removed Subject: N E W D R E A M T H E A T E R CD-Title!

Needles and Pins was, of course, the original title of Cryptic Writings, so I guess that's the reason why the song is there.

Frankly, I don't see it that way. Most of the people have been supportive, and rather non-judgemental, which kind of suprised me. I think special kudos go to D-Man himself for his initial calm handling of the situation. Of course, the fact that the crap continued gives him acceptible motivation to "go postal" on this guy. :) ----- >YOU ALL WILL DIE! >THERE IS NO ESCAPE! >I KNOW WHO YOU ARE! >I WILL KILL YOU!

Are >you actoraphobic? Afraid of thespians? =-=-=- Hmm...now we've been insensitive to gays, druggies, fat people and thespians. Maybe LoneWolf was right - We *are* a bunch of pricks. :) Oh, and I won't even glorify M. Coughlan's return to the jam with a quote, other than one from me: "Shut the fuck up.

Ok, the last couple of jams had a couple posts about homosexuality. Now it doesn't matter what I am or what you are or what anybody is(unless you like/dislike them ;). But there was one post that I thought could really start a flame war. I won't post it because if you didn't see it that's better. But really everyone just don't post your opinions about homosexuality. Some people get really pissed(as they should). And if you *must* express your opinions get out the ole pen and paper and write to Rush Limbagh! :) D-ster wrote: > > What's so passi about boys acting like boys and girls acting like girls? No - it > Is "passi" a word? I don't have my Ignorant-Redneck-to-English dictionary > handy. Care to help me with this one? Well this guy did what the French call a "faux pas". Ya see Ignorant Redneckish was derived from ancient French. And one of the things that was changed is the 'I' sounds like 'a' not like 'uh' as in anceint French. So, if we translate his phrase literally we get "I'm gay, but I can't live with myself." Hope this helps you out D-Man and any others who were confused. "Come back again y'here" :) The jam is always better in the summer! How else could we get the a whole KX review. That's turns into which songs are abortion songs(pro-life/anti-choice whatever you want to call it)? I wonder what this will turn into? :-) To whoever posted about that Image comic(I forget the name something with a P) could you email the number and the title, pretty please.

Yeah, I know, dumb question. It makes perfect sense. I, too, am very much like Mike. I have several friends who are gay. They know I don't agree with homosexuality, but that doesn't prevent me from loving them. That, my friends, is an example of Christ's love for *everybody*. And if you all think we're pushing our beliefs onto you, it's no different than say King's X or Galactic Cowboys. Well, I guess it is, because they're mass producing CDs, and all of you are buying them, and even publishing the lyrics of some songs here. If we formed our thoughts into songs, would you like us then? As it stands now, this jam is free. Skip over Christian posts if you hate us. It's not us hating you.
