You haven't heard some of the other people who post songs in there, young shredi. There is true talent in those people. I sense much fear in you. Guitarwar.com is an excellent resource for any beginning, intermediate, and (you can believe it!) advanced practitioner of the shredi arts. Everything from fingerpicking to classical to making your electric guitar sound like a sea otter doing the waltz with an octopus right over the great abyss can be found through the links of that page. Add too all that good wholesome information, you can even post clips of songs you might be working on (or just pieces that might showcase your virtuosity...loosely used term here), and I'd say this is probably the best guitar site on the net! Well, it's definitely one of the best :) Tablature, theory, competition, composition, and critique. What more could a cheap skate guitarist who doesn't want to pay for a teacher ask for? :) If you're seriously interested in having fun with your guitar, I'd spend quite some time at that site. ~Shredi Eckie hones his skills in preporation for his first post there ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 8 Oct 2000 21:41:44 +0200 From: "Dream Theater" To: Subject: A.A.A. Tears CD Single !!! Message-ID: <019101c0315f$e04bebe0$c0330b3e@thor> Hi there, I hope you can help me... I'm looking for a rare single called "Tears" performed by Dream Theater. It is a 3" (8 cm) single CD with only one title, the Rush cover "Tears" from the Uncovered show in London, January 31, 1995. This CD has been printed as a limited edition of 300 copies in Japan. The Japanese A Change of Seasons CD came with a coupon that was to be sent to the record company, who would then send you the bonus track cd. Have you got this single? Can you help me to find it? I'm ready to pay very very well for it. Where I can find it? Do you know anybody has got it? Let me know ASAP!

I haven't been too big on console gaming for a while, although I played Metal Gear Solid for 14 hours straight and spent most of my senior year in high school playing Gran Turismo.. But I've got to agree. I have tons of friends that play the older Final Fantasy versions and some other classics on their SNES emulators. For now, I'd say that PS2 has a good amount of potential. I haven't been keeping an eye on its development like I'm sure a lot of gamer geeks are. I was initially attracted because of the DVD playing capabilities, but I think I'll stick with a regular DVD player and compulsively visit friends that are getting the system. > > ~~Amanda > now feeling the urge to play Simon's Quest > > > > > ------------------------------ > > Date: Sun, 8 Oct 2000 01:43:41 -0500 > From: "Chris Ptacek" > To: > Subject: Time for GuitarWar > Message-ID: <000901c030f3$1a38f360$8184e5cf@someone> > > > Hey, someone will probably get mad that this is being posted to the jam > (because now this site may get flooded with JP Psychos) but I guess some > people here might get a kick out of GuitarWar.com.
