The recording quality is better than some bootlegs I've heard, but worse than others. Any ideas?

I feel like I read more bitching about DT than anything else. For the record, DT is my favorite band (although I don't claim to be as musically well-rounded and exposed as many of you) and probably will be for as long as I can see. A lot of this is about all the "immaturity" and disdain for "notes for the sake of notes" etc... or "every new keyboardist will inevitably suck" etc. etc.. IMO, while Derek may have "held the band back" in some ways, the results of this are rather intriguing.. I know FII is widely viewed as the worst DT album but I do honestly like most of FII, especially the most excellent ToT, LitS, Hell's Kitchen etc. .. these songs would probably not have been created with Kevin or Jordan. I don't dislike any of these guys, although I must say I like Jordan the best because... hopefully there are some of you out there that agree... I love every moment of DT's SELF-INDULGENCE. all of this is strictly opinion, as are all judgments on musicality, so I can't place this viewpoint over anyone that disagrees... but I'm not going to go around saying this-or-that-section was just "too much".."immature".. "masturbatory" .. .whatever. I mean, you'd think this list would be full of people who aren't always BITCHING about how horrible DT is for being like that. A lot of that *is exactly* what sets DT apart... yeah it's about songwriting all that ETC... but I find a lot simpler tunes enjoyable too, but it's the *complexity* that doesn't sacrifice [emotion] that makes DT the best, and with that, I whole heartedly agree. I love complex and difficult music.. e.g. Chopin .. so perhaps that is why I'm not so down on Jordan. I do a lot of piano improvisation that might be considered somewhat Jordan-esque. Every musician has his/her own style and I don't think it's right to tell them to be someone else. The reason for doing music starts with self-gratification, and I would have no problem with DT (or anyone) if they never go beyond that. It's the commonality in musical interests that keeps the fans (and the band's members) connected to each other (musically). So I guess my point is.. live and let live.. it's not really worth fussing about because it's all about their fun and fortunately for them, it's our fun too. (Or at least for me, personally.) Long live DT's self-indulgence...

Being a private school, it is rather expensive and kind of difficult to get into, but it has an extraordinary music department (so I've heard). I know several people that have attended (including music teachers that top the charts when I grew up).

"Whoa." - Neo/Ted Theodore Logan Now that the "BINFG" has been stated by several people, let's discuss just for one moment why people have come to say this. Mike Portnoy, John Myung, and John Petrucci were well on their way to becoming the players they wanted to be BEFORE Berklee. Berklee didn't offer any classes on "Creating an Innovative Prog Band" nor do they have any "Chops 101" type classes. These guys got good because they practiced what they were listening to on their own time. The knowledge that they got from Berklee (How long were they there... like a fuckin' semester?) that they actually USE in their writing could be gotten in the same semester at a local community college. Berklee is not a rock school. Its reputation is as a jazz school, and it's not at ALL what it used to be, though I still think it's a realistic and viable option for many, if only because you'll be near so many like-minded music students. I have several friends who went there (I opted to go somewhere local, because I didn't want to study jazz at the time--even though I have since spent a lot of time and energy doing just that--but I am SURE that I have found a better teacher here at NIU than I would have at Berklee) and NONE have EVER come back with the story that "It's a VERY nice place" or a very nice area. One friend who spent 3 years there was mugged at least twice... and this dude's not small. Berklee's current student attitude needs some adjustment, according to my friends' stories. There's the "I wanna play rock" crowd who may feign interest in jazz and classical because they "know they're supposed to," if they bother to even put that effort in. Then there's the other side of the coin, with the wannabe bebop guys who mock all things that aren't jazz. There are definite exceptions, and I'm sure there's hundreds of cool people there, but you will run into this there. You take similar shit at any music school I've heard of though, so really there's no escape from your peers' myopia. It's up to YOU to be serious at Berklee, just like many other schools. Unlike most universities, it's a bit difficult to get booted for not doing your work... you get into Miami or Texas and fuck around and you'll be informed of the lattitude and longitude of "the door." No real college or university is going to help you learn to shred. That's for a school like AIM, Music Tech, or MI (GIT, etc). These places offer quality programs, but it's not really applicable in terms of "Oh, I think maybe I'll go on and get my Masters and teach at a university." Ask yourself "What do I want from a music school?" If you need someone to hold your hand, you need to find a teacher, and not a school. If you want to learn jazz or classical (the typically "academically accepted" musical forms) you should be able to find something within your state. If you really want to get the best program for YOU, then you have to be prepared to go somewhere you don't want to... you may find Indiana Bloomington to be the best blend for you. If you're interested in a full on intense melt your brain guitar assault (not in terms of shred, though technical proficiency is a requirement) consider NIU for the sake of Fareed Haque alone. If you want to slack off, you need to choose a place that's more lenient than these types of places. If cost is an issue, get on the FAFSA forms and start looking for some scholarship audition material if you want to go to Texas, Miami or Berklee (these places are expensive!) I think you'll regret not considering all your options (limiting yourself to one corner of the country) at some point if you really want to find the best school for you. I think you'll regret going to school for music if all you want to do is play DT type stuff, though you'll be happy with the decision if it opens you up to new concepts of what is "good" music. Many of the best musicians you listen to never went to school. "Berklee Ain't No Fucking Guaranteeeee" basically means that if you're looking for a school to make you a great musician, you're not going to be a great musician. You'll get great by your efforts alone, if you put all your effort in. A school can offer you a structured format which you can apply your effort and intent to, but everything you can learn in a music school is available to you outside school. Many of us just like it served to us forcefully. :) - Chris ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 06 Apr 2000 17:08:12 -0400 From: davidtheliotis To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: Re: Music Colleges in Northern US Message-ID: Well... this was quite a shocker, but it really throws things into perspective. Just so i can get this out of the way, i'm looking to study guitar to prepare myself to make a living throught music after college. i'm not looking to be some amazing rock star or anything--it's impractical to think i'll become rich and famous by going to a certain college. In fact, i don't even want to rich and famous, i just want to be able to live with music. From college, and i want to learn to play with good technique and different styles of music. I want to be able to play jazz, rock, classical, and other styles. I want to go to a college that will teach me that, and like you said going to a local college may teach me just as well as going to a more expensive and well-known school, like berklee. I really don't know much about the school's i've considered so far (Rutgers, Ithaca, Berklee). I was just asking if anybody knew of other schools I should consider for a serious career in music, because let's face it there's little chance that I can become a famous recording artist just by going to a certain college. So... if anybody has any other suggestions i'm open, but let's not have some huge fight over going to a certain college will make you famous.

Here is the text of the review (accompanied with the publication's highest rating, a smiley face): --------------------------------------------------- Transatlantic is Neal Morse, Roine Stolt, Pete Trewavas, and Mike Portnoy - members of four of the finest prog bands of the 1990's. Therefore, SMPTe starts with two points against it. First, it is a progressive rock band, and secondly, it is a supergroup. Anyone remember Asia? Fortunately, SMPTe does not suffer from its genesis. Yes, Transatlantic is progressive, but a strong sense of each song keeps the band from getting lost in the musical stratosphere. The palaying stays true to the musicians' roots: Inventive and impeccable without needless soloing. Most groups of this sort turn into noodly shred-fests, with members fighting for most notes played, but Transatlantic works as a unit, not a collection of warring musicians. Transatlantic does not compromise its style for commercial success, either. The album features the requisite progressive epics. Three tracks are more than 15 minutes long, with one clocking in at more than a half-hour. The two remaining songs are relatively short and showcase the group's knack for pop melodies and Beatlesesque harmonies. Fans of classic rock should love this. Transatlantic has harnessed the energy of 70's prog, mixed in a healthy dose of Lennon-McCartney and removed the egos before cooking.

Steve Morse, Don Dokken, etc.) to record a Japanese-only instrumental album called "Guitar Battle". On the Purple Rain track, JP is joined by a few other guitar guys, and they trade off lead licks over the top of the drums and stuff. It's absolutely beautiful, and I highly recommend the release. UACM has a link to this album in their discography (http://www.dreamtheater.net/disgbatt.htm), and you can order the CD from CDNow.
