Let's face it, even if all 1400 of us vote for ACoS, there's no way it'll become song of the millenium, since the bitch running the vote is Garth Brooks' biggest fan, president of his fanclub, moderator of his mailing list, etc...

Eg., Marcus Miller, Mike Oldfield, Marillion, Beethoven, Rachmaninov, Pat Metheny, Massed Pipes and Drums of the Scots Dragoon Guards, Los Trios Paraguayos, Passion Grace & Fire (McLaughlin, Di Meola and De Lucia), Chopin, Debussy, Puccini (esp La Boheme), Cyclone Tracy, Angra, Glenn Hughes, T Ride (whatever happened to them?), Roundabout (Yes), the list is endless.

Didn't the drummer on Rock School call himself Carl Palmer? Can it possibly be the same guy that everyone on the 'jam was really raving about after the DT/ELP/DP shows over the pond? And if we're reminiscing, don't forget Tommy Vance and the Friday Rock Show. I remember the first time I heard 'Let It Rock' by Bon Jovi before they hit the UK (OK, OK, but it was a long time ago, I was young and needed the money...)

It also says in the DTIFC magazine Fall issue that the photographer kept on getting their names wrong and called Mike and Tony 'Chris & Kevin', which is where the title of that track came from .... ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Sep 1998 00:22:36 +0100 From: CyberDuke To: email_address_removed Subject: Hooray for Korg Message-ID: > From: "Korg Ecksthrey" > > KorgX3 > NP: The Cure - Disintigration Woohooo, another bro who likes Cure!

It's a polite way of calling something "buttrock" which many juveniles have oh so mistakenly accused me of listening to. Anytime anyone bitches at me for that I completely and horribly burst into tears and run home to mommy. Serves 'em right. Dickheads.

It's by far the best disc i've gotten since '94 at least, and in my top five of all time. You can get it from HevyDevy records for $15 or you can import from CDNow for a lot more. By the way, Devin Townsend's next project, INFINITY, will be out very soon as well. Look out for that beast.
