Any recruits proclaiming a philosophical or economic viewpoint on tape- trading or bootlegging (either pro or con) will have thier tongues cut out. Any proclaiming a moral viewpoint on the above will be shot. Any proclaiming absolute neutrality will be drafted into the Ytse-MP's. (That's "military police," not "Mike Portnoys.") Any recruits that still seem somewhat dense will have the FAQ stapled to their foreheads. --Jay " :) " Omega --NP: Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 22 Mar 1998 05:35:46 -0500 From: "Mike Patrick" To: "DT" Subject: Today's Chuckle (NDTC) Message-ID: Forgive if this has already been covered before: I was flipped through my old issues of Guitar World and came across the June '93 issue, which has an awesome two-page spread of JP (which he signed for me) and lo and behold, Mike Varney's 'Hometown Heros' section features none other than one 'Mike Romeo' from New Jersey. You've GOT to love the photo of him. First this and now Seinfeld's puffy shirt. It's a damn good thing the guy can shread beyond belief - he aint winning beauty or fashion contests!

I have worked on creating jam along tapes (for guitarist, because that is what I am) for WDADU, IAW, and Awake. All the songs will eventually have Drums, Bass, and Keys. Almost all the songs are completed as far as drums and bass. Only a few also have the keys. I would like to buy a CD-R and make the three jam along albums available to those interested. I realize there are already MIDI files, but these are only as good as your sound card's (almost too afraid to use apostrophes anymore) wavetable sounds. Some of these MIDI files also lack a little in the accuracy department. I won't say mine are 100% accurate, but I have worked very hard on the accuracy (including dynamics). Here is the plan. I would like to assemble a tape of about 3 DT jam along songs and send them out with the idea that who ever receives this tape will post a review on the jam. Depending on the feedback, I will then decide if I will buy a CD-R, complete all three albums, and open up complete album jam along tapes to everyone. So the first 5-10 people (in the US) to respond to this will get a copy of this tape sent to them. I will not ask for any tape reimbursement or shipping charges. Instead, your feedback will be PAYMENT. As I said, the feedback will be very helpful to me. I would also be very happy to send Mike Portnoy or any other member of DT a free copy if they so request. To me, that would be the ultimate feedback. If Mike Portnoy told me that some of the drums were inaccurate, I couldn't exactly argue with him :o) Oh wait, I remember incorporating a live "change" Mike Portnoy did to "Pull Me Under" because I liked it so much. This paragraph may be wishful thinking, but it doesn't hurt to ask. Unfortunately, because I am paying for shipping I have to limit the FREE tapes to the US. I would also like to hear Chris Ptacek's opinion on the FREE demo tape. From what I have gathered, he has acheived a decent level of proficiency. He also has a knack for being brutally honest. I would much rather have an honest opinion than a "kiss-ass" opinion. So if Chris P. is interested, let me know. Hope to hear from you. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 25 Apr 1998 17:52:42 -0800 From: Shane Liebling To: email_address_removed Subject: Re: King Crimson (and Marillion!!!!) Message-ID: Hey to the guy who is looking into King Crimson. I would say go pick up Sleepless: The Concise King Crimson. I am not a huge Crimson fan but from what I hear it has some of the best stuff from the 3 (or however many) "eras" of Crimson. It is pretty good. I personally care for the early stuff. Damn. I have been listening to a tape copy of the second disc of The Thieving Magpie, which is a live version of Misplaced Childhood. Damn. I just (after like 2 years of looking for it) picked up the CD of MC. Damn. I LOVE this album. Fish has an amazing voice, and Steve Rothery's guitars are haunting. I am gonna look for the tab after I finish this message.

Maybe I shouldn't apologise at all. So I won't. Too late. :) At any rate, I was the one who called you on it, and when graham said something like "Who gives a, shit?" I was the one who said "you don't need a coma there", effectively shutting down my ISP with the flood of "or a comma, even!" messages. Yes, yes, I deserved it. In other news: I've been working at Pizza Hut for about a month and change now, and I discovered that we have a satellite hookup to commercial-free radio, piped in 24/7, and a wide selection of channels to pick from. Last night after close I decided to put on the "power rock" station to see what they'd play. Well. Metallica, Rush, and then, Savatage. So I said to myself, "hey if they'd play savatage, maybe they'll play DT." And sure enough, then they played status seeker. Well, that was pretty cool. josh ............................................................ mailto: email_address_removed Check out Another Page at www.j51.com/~mrasiel.

FUCK OFF BAHR! Out of all the people here you are the LAST person to be preaching the morals of bootlegging to ANYONE! You're just a snivelling selfish little prick who is trying to horde all the business for yourself and trying to get other jammers busted for what you've been doing for three years now. I'm warning you right here on this list. If ANY person on this list gets busted for selling boots I will email every federal law enforcement agency in the USA and the state of Arizona as to your business practices (which I'm sure you pay NO state or fed taxeds on). Even if they ignore the illegal practices of your cd selling I'm sure they'd be PLENTY interested in your practices of Income Tax evasion. DON'T FUCK WITH JAMMERS MIKE!!!!!!
