I don't understand this message. You seemed to go thru denial of DT's lack of popularity then, by the end of the message, reconciled with it. But let's face it, the closest DT came to "selling out" for more radio play was with songs like "Anna Lee" (sort of) and while it's not bad at all IMHO (the song I mean), DT aren't capable of writing a song that would get tons and tons of radio play. If I'm not mistaken, PMU didn't even get that much airplay back in the day. IMHO, DT are much better at writing the kind of music that they do. They don't get played on the radio and that's fine with me. I like DT being the at the level of popularity they're at right now. Either you now about them or you don't. And let's face it, if DT were as popular as the Backstreet Boys, there's no fucking way Mike would be on this mailing list. As it is, he responds every now and then and I think that's cool. Let's leave things as they are.

Alfaro" To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: Favorite Parts , my interpretation of TAMP's solo. Message-ID: One of my favorite DT moments is JP's solo in take away my pain. I feel it captures the wild range of emotions that go on when youre in that situation. I dont know if im right, but see it this way, listen to it and think about this: the first part of the solo (before the fast part) fits with the feeling of pain and despair you feel when you know someone close is going to die, this leads up to the solo speeding up and the fast flurry of notes, which would represent a sudden burst of desperate anger and lashing out that sometimes occur, then the solo winds down and concludes with an uplifting feel that could represent the feeling of acceptance and of moving forward after one copes with death. After thinking about it this way, i cant help but get choked up everytime i listen to the solo. I know this interpretation(sp?) is purely personal, but i thought id share because some of you might find it interesting.

Trevor H. inquired: >> NP: Glass Hammer - Live and Revised (lim. ed.) >What are they like? I've heard good things. Funny you should mention that. :) Glass Hammer has strong ties to the prog bands of the 70s and early 80s -- ELP, Yes, Genesis, early Rush, and so on. Intricate musicianship with thought provoking lyrics. Some religious overtones in their songs, but not often. GH has a number of discs out including "Journey of the Dunadan", a concept album based on Tolkien's work, "Perelandra", alluding to C.S. Lewis' "fairy tales for adults" series, and more recently "On To Evermore", another concept disc continuing the Perelandra story. "Live and Revived", a limited-edition release of only 1000 discs, features live stuff, outtakes, and unreleased material. Glass Hammer's new disc "Chronometree", a true salute to the Moog and Mellotron-heavy music of prog's heyday, is on its way and should be out in a couple more days. Feel free to check out the website at http://www.glasshammer.com/ for information about the story, interviews with the band, MP3 sound samples from previous discs, ordering info, and lots more. cheers, Phil (who moonlights as the GH webmaster, incidentally) :) ================================================== Phil Carter -- email_address_removed -- http://www.glasshammer.com "Music, the greatest good that mortals know / And all of heaven we have below." -- Joseph Addison ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 20:00:02 EST From: email_address_removed To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: Questions About Napster Message-ID: Hey gang - With all this Napster talk of late, an internet correspondent of mine keeps trying to get me to sign up with them. He says it's awesome and that I'll love it, but he has yet to clearly explain exactly what it is. I went to their website, but they don't really have any kind of document that I know of saying exactly what it is and exactly how it works. The "What Is Napster" link just says crap like "hey, just think, all the MP3's you could ever want at your fingertips, blah blah blah, download here!" No details about what's involved. Can any of you out there provide me with some basic info? What exactly am I downloading? Is it just the MP3 browsing software? I'm also always leery about registering with websites... especially in this case where I may be obtaining illegal MP3's. Also, is it free to download as many as I want, or do they charge you? Will me signing up mean that anyone else with Napster can see my entire hard drive when they search for MP3's? (Damn, I'd hafta hide all my porn, then! ;-) ) Is it the type of thing where you upload MP3s to a Napster server, then when you search for them, you're actually only searching the server? What kind of legal ramifications are there for publicly uploading/downloading MP3's? Sorry for all the questions, but you get the idea. Private e-mail would be fine, unless you think the answers are Jam-worthy. Thanks in advance!! Laterz...

I dont know man, portnoy himself has said it was (if i remember well) a time of transition, and between the label's pressure and what not they themselves did this. Its been established that Derek's bigger contribuitions to the band were in New Millenium, LITS and Hells Kitchen, the former and latter being the closest to what , by most people's standards on this list, is the DT sound. Hell, id blame the poppier tunes on FII on Mike and JP first! To think that the new bandmember had such an impact on their writing is ridiculous. We all know how portnoy describes himself as a HUGE control freak when it comes to DT's music, do you think that if he himself wasnt happy (at the time) with the direction the album was taking, he wasnt going to move things his way?! I mean could you really imagine Derek, the "new" guy taking over the writing and recording sessions? I dont think so.. -- Come into this night, Your plight alone Carry your weight, You are flawed as all of us Come into this night, You only home Itīs never too late, To repent, suffer the loss Opeth : Benighted Carlos Alfaro Internet Solutions Inc. mailto:email_address_removed mailto:email_address_removed ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2000 20:41:55 -0500 From: "Jack Szumski" To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: No screaming Vocals Message-ID:

Get the Box set just out last year.  Or, try Captain Beyond - Captain beyond if you can

He shook her for about ten seconds, then let go, trotted back into the house, and laid down. My sister required 80 stitches (the best work I've ever seen -- barely any scars, even though her jaw as open to the bone when he started). He was a good dog for 99.9999999% of his life... unfortunately, 0.0000001% of his life involved ripping my sister's jaw apart. it was also the last 0.0000001% of his life (give or take a 30 minute ride to the vet).

I kind of like listening to relatively unknown bands. It's nice to be different, to have friends come over and not recognize any of the bands I have albums from. Some time last year Eckie told us the charming story of seeing someone at ASU with a DT shirt on.. I think he went and attacked the guy outta pure joy :) I'm still waiting for that day, but for now I'll be happy with the compliments on my NIN and Tool shirts. It's nice to hear a prog or metal band I like on the radio every once in a while, but I'm glad they aren't played to death like some of the new Metallica, the stuff with the SF Symphony.

You don't have to give out any personal information other than your *cough* dad's name and *cough* hotmail address. :) As far as using it, you just go to search, type in the band name you're looking for and it will submit for your approval what songs are being distributed through the current server. Just make sure you're downloading from a high bandwidth guy and presto. :) Instant MP3's. I've only used it for rarities thus far, but it would be a handy tool to use for people looking to listen to other bands they've never heard before. All it is is a small program you install that works basically like you described: A search engine for MP3's. Just one word of warning: don't list your MP3 directory in the spot where it asks you to. I did that and it uploaded a list of 2000 of my MP3's. Withing seconds I was the most popular person on the server. Having only a 56k modem, I was beleagured and had to kill everyone. :P If I have songs for people to check out, I put them in a separate directory on my hard drive. Otherwise the leeches will suck your bandwidth dry.

He has even more of a habit of going over the top than JP - if (as Alice Cooper once opined) Derek is the Caligula of the Keyboards, then Jordan is definitely the Steve Vai of keys. Except he's a far better composer than Vai, but y'all know what I mean. That said, I really like his solos. I tend to be more interested in the keys than the guitar, because to be honest, JP doesn't do it for me anymore. I know exactly what to expect - the legato runs and the flurries of speed picking, and at least one bit of sweeping. JR and KevMo (yes, and Derek) are more interesting soloists to my ear right now, even if JR's solos on SFaM aren't a patch on the ones he played on LTE 1 & 2. >From: "Fran Brennan" >Subject: the Metropoli > >Or more importantly, is there any conncection between >METROPOLIS 1 and SFAM? >;^) Snigger...

Just in case I die. I plan on living forever, but just in case. Offtopic here: Anyone know what Trevor Rabin is doing? Does he have a new "Progject" in the works? To tie in to the Matrix thread, was it his name I saw in the credits for the score? Or was that another flick? Good Prog MP3 sites? Anyone? Help.
