In my opinion:  they are INCREDIBLE!  Others say they're too cheesy.  To each
their own, ya know?  Anyway, you can judge for yourself at their official web
page:

I think (although I'm not sure) that there are some sound files to download

Message-ID: <message_id_removed>


Well, got a few comments about those subjects.

1. LTE:  Wow, I can't beleive this, I was in Circuit City today to buy
   a new alarm clock (can't believe it, managed to get water in my old
   one) so was looking at CDs, decided, for the hell of it, to look
   whether they had LTE, and could not find it under LTE (always look
   for some of the standards, DT, Fates, whenever I'm at a CD shop to
   get a feel for their collection, ance since I already have LTE,
   didn't need ot buy it) and didn't see it, so I look at their DT
   selection, and what else do I see, but 3 (count them, 3) copies of
   LTE in the DT section, for only $12.99 (far better than the $17.99
   I paid at Tower), so there you have it, Circuit City has LTE.

2. Milan '9? CD boot: The Milan '9? CD that someone asked about is a
   clone of Lost In The Sky, in fact, all of the CDs that I have seen
   printed by Live Storm Records are boots of other boots.  (Have a
   Queensryche Unplugged CD from them, which is a copy of the "real"
   QR unplugged CD)

3. Japanese HY CD single:  Well, not sure whether the Japanese HY CD
   single with the 3/17/98 release date is the same as the one that
   Syrinx posted about, which was the German one + 2 tracks from Birch
   Hell.  

(wow, just noticed the formating of my post there...  long live Emacs!

	According to some sources, JM feels very bad if he doesn't play
his bass at least 10 hours a day. That's what I call discipline.

	BTW, John Myung is an incredibly fine, kind person, like very few
people that I have met in my whole life. 

	Really impressive.

Message-ID: <message_id_removed>


Hi Jammer-type people...

I had a very good day at the record show in Wayne, New Jersey today, despite
the fact that my friend and favorite dealer in prog CDs, Bob Wolf of Sights
and Sounds, wasn't even there.  I started out with two concert video boots:
Marillion, taped Sept. 9, 1997, in New Haven, Connecticut (Finally!  All 16
minutes of 'This Strange Engine,' live!  YAY!!!), and Fish, taped October 24,
1995, in Krakow, Poland.  I didn't actually have any solo Fish video in my
collection prior to this purchase, but this video was way too good to pass up:
pro shot, lots of Marillion songs in the set, etc.

Then I made my way to what I believe was Jart Music's table, where I turned my
disappointment at Bob Wolf's absence into a triumph of progressive purchasing:
four, that's right, four CDs, two of which were pricey imports, but well worth
the bucks.  First I snatched up a copy of "Legendary Tales," by the Italian
prog-metal band Rhapsody, about whom I've heard a number of good things, for
only $15; then I found Shrapnel six-string wunderkind George Bellas' new disc,
"Mind Over Matter," again, only $15; then I added Arena's live album, "Welcome
to the Stage," featuring Pendragon/Shadowland keyboard wizard Clive Nolan, IQ
bassist John Jowitt and ex-Marillion drummer Mick Pointer, for $25; and
finally, the crown jewel, Yngwie Malmsteen's brand new "Concerto for Electric
Guitar and Orchestra," a $35 Japanese import.  YOW!

And the last purchase of the day, at another table laden with bootleg goodies,
a $25 CD of Black Sabbath with Rob Halford on vocals, recorded at Ozzy
Osbourne's semi-legendary 'farewell concert' several years ago.  It was either
that or a CD recording of a 1976 Yes tour rehearsal featuring not only a short
version of "Heart of the Sunrise" with Chris Squire on lead vocals, but a full
performance of "The Remembering (High the Memory)"--aka Part Three of 'Tales
from Topographic Oceans.'  Ooh--decisions, decisions!  I waffled for several
minutes, but ultimately I had to hear what Rob Halford singing "Children of
the Sea" (among other songs) sounded like.

The only better conclusion to the show would have been to find a "Falling Into
Infinity" concert disc.  *sigh*

It was a good day.

well, this is my first attemt at prodising (word? probably not) so here
goes... no one tried this one before have they? Anyway, I was bored and
thinking and this mutant lil brain child was formed.....

Kill The Mime
Words: Lisa Centorrino

Hold it now, wait a minute, c'mon, whew!
Just let me catch my breath...
They make those images
Plenty of mistakes
I've give a fair share of tough breaks
Need a new bat, new gun, new way
To kill the mime, dump him in th'lake
It's time to hide all his pieces,
And find me a new one
I think it's time for a change
This is something that I feel
I have to know what is the deal
I feel the heat within my mind
And in my head I see them die
Wandering around doing nothing
A glove with razors I'll fashion
I won't waste another breath
We can kill all the mimes
(It's time to kill the mime)
Destroy them all, sounds like fun
(It's time to kill the mime)
You're fighting an urge not to hurl
And no one can save him this time
Close your eyes
You will find all you need kill the mime
The broken bodies
Bloodied and bleeding
Finds the aliby this trial demands
And at the end of this day sighs an anxious relief
For the police cant find that man
If you're locked away for a year
Then man must turn to dope
If his obsession's real,
Suppression that he feels must use some rope
Get out the razor-edged glove
(It's time to kill the mime)
Listen to all the voices from above
(It's time to kill the mime)
You're fighting the urge not to hurl
And no one can save him this time
Close your eyes
You can find what you need kill the mime
I close my eyes
And feel them all around me
Slash and beat the mime
Let his body fall away
I feel better now, a body they wont find
Find all you need to kill the mime
Just kill the mime

Hope this helps any jammers.

Probably because a Fast Track is basically a middle position pickup or a
Fender humbucker.  It's still a humbucker made to fit in a single coil
position.  They suck, too.  heheh.  If it's an Ibanez, I'd say you're most
likely screwed.  Get an Air Norton or PAF Pro for the neck if do you have a
standard neck humbucker.  The tones up there are rather mellow and sweet for
melodic soloing.  DiMarzzio has a 30 day return policy.  You can send them
back for whatever reason and get it replaced with a different one.  (At
least this is what the guy I bought mine from told me.)  So It's pretty much
OK to experiment, maybe. :)

As far as compatablity, I can't see why you can't mix and match whatever
pickups you want wherever.  I've got a PAF Pro in the neck, a Fast Track I
in the mid, and an Evolution in the bridge, and they all work fine.  The
Fast Track is mostly decorative now.  I think it sucks.

Hell, it beats talking about picks.  heheh.

WOW........is all that comes to mind after listening to LTE several times!  I
can't believe the masterpieces-of-prog-in-your-face-whether-you-like-it-or-not
on this CD are products of only 1 week of thought, but what do I know?  I'm
just a 'damn guitarist'.  :)  After listening to LTE with headphones, I
understood why they let Shirley mix.  There are just so many subtleties on
this CD that you can only hear <well> with headphones, it's like a whole
different perspective!  (duh, I know, but try it if ya haven't :)  This gem is
definately gonna tied me over for......a damn long time!

For those guitarists who are trying to fight the habit of economy picking:
play the  riffs or scale runs that you like to warm-up with the same way
basicly, EXCEPT, pick the first note as an upstroke (or down depending on
whichever is the opposite of the way you're comfortable with) and continue
with the down/up pattern.  Do it until it sounds as good as the way you
originally played.  Also it helps if you switch rhythms....in other words play
a scale in 16ths then try it in sextuplets while keeping the same tempo.  This
really helps for me anyway.  (sorry to those who have heard this
before......just pretend you didn't read it :)

Hi 

I have question :

My brother owns Stratovarious-Visions with a multi media bonus track.
The CD contains the complete "Kiss Of Judas" video as AVI file !!!

Is your version of the CD the same or is ours a special edition ?

Another thing for all IRON MAIDEN fans :

The new maxi CD " The Angel And The Gambler " contains a multi media bonus track.
It's a live video of "Man On The Edge". I think it's a special edition.
