Most DT fans like Yes I am not shure if it works the other way around." I'm not so sure about that. I've only met a handful of other prog fans, one being my age (20) and loves both DT and Yes, the other two being in the 40-50 range. Although one wasn't familiar with DT, he really enjoyed them, and the other was already a proud owner of all their studio work. Maybe the heavier stuff won't go over too well (Puppies on Acid, Lie, Beyond this Life), but I think that Met1, Scarred, TDoE (a reach), Finally Free, as well as several others would go over very well. I hope that this concert goes on...I'd spend all sorts of money to see my two favorite acts perform at the same concert. -- Chris Jerolamon email_address_removed ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 15:12:35 EST From: email_address_removed To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: metallichunk? blows!

If DT plays their more proggy stuff like M1 and M2 and LtL, they'll be fine. Along with some of the more "poppy" stuff like LSOAD, electric Silent Man, Surrounded (PLEASE!!!) mixed some other prog moments like ToT, LiTS, and some selections from M2. They'll be fine. That's the great thing about DT. Their material is so diverse that they could open for almost anyone.

Yeah, let's do that. Btw, I'm still looking into going to the Santa Ana show, which Ticketmaster Online has listed. But hadn't made if available to purchase the tickets yet. Are they on sale yet for the santa ana and also the Saturday night show at The Palace?

Here's a set list that might work when opening for Yes. Rearrange the songs in whatever order you like...assuming they get an hour. Metropolis Part 1 Overture 1928 Take The Time (extended slightly) Voices Hollow Years Home (full) Pull Me Under Very hard to limit them to an hour of music. It could end up only 45 minutes.

I really also thought Entropia was the second release, as most bands improve with successive releases. Concrete Lake is fine but I've filed that one away for the time being. Whilst Entropia has been in constant rotation in my CD player as I much prefer the heavier and crunchier feel of it. By the way I've also finally got hold of Saviour Machine.

I'll just add something to this that I read in an interview with Jason, 'cos it's a good tip. As well as giving the guitars more mids,Bob gave Jason a scoop that was almost exactly opposite to that of the guitars, so that again, they stand out more in the mix. Also, on the last two albums - again, this is a great way to go about it - there was more use made of the stereo "image"; because the guitars were panned left and right to a greater or lesser degree, and the bass remained in the middle, it stood out great. It didn't hurt, either, that it took Jason until after AJFA to learn to actually play bass properly, instead of just shredding under the guitars - his words, not mine. You'll notice how quickly JM disappears under the mix when he goes off on one.
