Borzilleri" To: Dream Thespians Subject: Cassy, Time Travel, Nothing To Lose Message-ID: Cassandra was a character in a Greek play. I don't remember the title but I read the play many years ago. Cassandra could predict the future, and like everyone entwined in Fate's thorny garden, she could never change what she knew was going to happen. To say one feels like "Cassandra fleeting" is to say that one feels like running away from the inevitable. ---- > Date: Mon, 21 Jul 1997 21:33:02 -0400 (EDT) > From: email_address_removed > Subject: DDTT (Deep Dream Theater Thought) > > "Ok, we all know about Mike's daughter Melody.

I didn't have a problem when P.M. Dawn ripped off Tears For Fears, and I was able to let it slide when the Fugees ripped off Enya. But Pachelbel? That's hallowed ground, G. (2) Even though Keb Mo and Morphine are all over the soundtrack in the MOVIE, they are nowhere to be foud on the actual soundtrack ALBUM.

Wow, this is really one of the best cd's I've purchased recently. Now, does anyone know if there is a (good) Threshold website? Quite confusing band name BTW. I searched for a threshold site at yahoo, I found one, but it turned out that that was another Threshold (from the US and not from the UK). On that site they stated that they were going to have to change the band's name because... they found out that there was already yet another Threshold from the US (bet they never ever heard of MY (british) Threshold. To make it all even worse there is a dutch band named Treshold (no H). That makes three Thresholds (two US, one UK) and one Treshold (Netherlands)...

Is anyone > else feeling kinda spooky? well, either the time was set incorrectly on whatever machine sets the headers on vince's mail (which i've seen happen before). or, he lives in arizona, where they don't use daylight savings time. therefore, since they don't "spring forward", they are 3 hours behind EDT, instead of the normal 2 for the rest of the mountain time zone. thus, he could have read a message sent at 9 oclock eastern time, and it still would have been 6 oclock for him. or maybe i'm just on crack, but i heard it explained that way once... -the ever present id ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Jul 1997 13:51:37 +0000 From: Jon Parmet To: ytsejam@ax.com, voices@arastar.com Subject: Re: Fates Warning US Tour Message-ID: From: Michael Kizer > Help Wanted: Anyone who is able to help promote Fates Warning's U.S. > Tour [...] Have 'em come to BOSTON and I'll help!

Message-ID: Hello, Plowing through 15 or so Jams, made it halfway methinks. I've been posting a lot less than usual (stop cheering). To any and all who might care, I retrieved all that was stolen from me. All my CDs are back in my possession and I only have to live in fear for 2.5 more weeks before I move. Pretty cool, eh? Oh, and join the (prog) tape swap. Go to Swifty's page. Submit. From Mr. Blevins, on Contact: >Man, that settles it - the only thing we will EVER agree on is SOME >music. The Arrival? Give me a break... Ahem... So you don't care for my taste in sci-fi sir? I have to say that I would have given Contact a passing review had it not been for one key scene. You see, the entire movie was about taking people and things on faith: i.e., Jodie Foster took the existence of aliens on faith, Matt McConaughey took God on faith, and the people of the world (and the audience) were supposed to take Jodie on faith for her story about her trip. But the maker of Contact, the of-late unreliable Zemeckis, didn't think we , the audience, were intelligent enough to see this, so he put in the scene with Angela Bassett and James Woods about the 18 hours of static to MAKE you believe her, therefore violating the intent of the movie. Apparently, Mr. Zemeckis has little FAITH in the viewer. And this WAS the interpretation Zemeckis intended, as he has said in interviews. But all of this was on top of the lousy performances and the overall self-importance of the movie. I was more impressed with Zemeckis's Back to the Future movies than this one. Oh, and I put The Arrival in my ten best from last year, just so you know. My recommendation for this week: go to the video store and rent Lone Star. Fantastic writing and directing. Unlike some sci-fi movies... The goon: >"rev. daddy love" Every time I try to remember this band's name, someone says Reverend Horton Heat, and I tell them no, it's a different band. Then they say I'm a moron and there's only one band with Reverend in the name. Thanks for making me right. For once. Brian, on farber: >the first jammer to complain about it gets kicked off the list. And what about then other hundred who do? I think Brian just wants to make sure he's exempt...:) >would it be possible for someone who owns the Lie and Silent Man >singles to make me a CD - R of them? I second this idea.

If the last DT CD was called Awake, this one should be Breakfast. Just the natural flow of things... I wonder what Enchant did with the barbwire, after they took DT's heart to put it on their Wounded CD cover. I also wonder how they put the fire out. If the members of DT were Phil Rudd or Vinnie Appice (drums), Jimmy Bain (bass), Marky Ramone (guitar), John Tesh (keyboards) and Scott Weiland (vocals), I bet not a single one of us jammers would be here today. I wonder if someday we'll find out that John Myung actually owns a chain of strip joints and has an affair with Cicciolina. Finally, if Mike has a daughter named Melody, I think KJLB should have a daughter named Rhythm, just in retribution :). If I have kids someday I should probably call them Images and Words :).

"your venom's not family here", maybe his uncle had a pet cobra, that wasnt excepted into the family? "i show you my hands, you dont see the scars" wow, talk about full of himself. does he really think he's jesus? "yes, its 180 degrees but its a dry heat" is he crazy? does it really get 180 degrees in houston? i remember living in arizona, and newmexico for a long time, and the most i ever remember it getting was 122. and about jumping in a swimming pool, this guy who said that is obviously not from an area that gets dry heat. you try jumping in a swimming pool when its 100 degrees, and a dry heat, the pool water will be about 99 degrees, i had a pool when i lived in arizona, and almost never used it cause the water always got too hot. who knows, maybe someday thanks to global warming, that statement could be true. maybe aliens will come down from another planet and live in mexico and help increase global warming so they can take over our planet. maybe they're already here? i always wondered something about the DT video in tokyo (the legal one). when kev was in the shop making fun of the word "engerish" i wonder if that would offend JM? its kinda making fun of asians and their way of speaking engrish. i dont know, i maybe be right, i may be crazy. or i just may be the lunatic your looking for? who knows? b.t.w. i just got a scanner the other day, 30 bit color, thats awesome, for you non-computer nerds, thats over a billion colors. my puter only supports 16-bit color though =(. not that 32,768 colors arent enough. but anyway, if you guys want any DT stuff scanned for your pages or anything like that, just email me, im not gonna charge you for something that will take me a second to do, now if you werent DT fans, then i'd have to charge you.
