Her latest effort "Haunted" is the shit. The album has like one skipper ( IMO -- I'm not a Virgin Anymore-- ) and I'm not thrilled when I hear "Hey Pretty " but overall it's one of my fav purchases of the past 6 months. Oh I almost forgot --- I would like to thank all the people here who have suggested bands on this list. Thanks to you I now have Symphony X, Rhapsody, Stratovarius, Nightwish and Opeth. Fuckena !!!

What a fantastic show that was. This is the 2nd time I saw them, but first time as a headliner. Suffice to say it was a fantasic set. Personal highlights: 1) being in the "2nd row", just in front of Ryo 2) hearing Disc 3 of Heavy ConstruKction by King Crimson as the house music between Event and Spock's Beard. Perhaps not the best of introductions to KC (it's a collection of improvs from the european leg of their 2000 tour), but hey...KC is my favorite band so I was digging it! 3) standing in line behind someone who is bringing teh Flower Kings to Hampton, VA on 9/2. Time for me to buy one of their CDs! 4) Ryo taking charge of getting autographs from the band for a kid who is in front of me.....while the show is going on! He signed it himself, and took the book and got Dave to sign it while neither were playing anything. Then he came back and said "3 to go". Later, during the encore, he got Neil, Nick and Alan to sign it....again, on stage. He also gave the kid a cookie. That kid is a fan for life I'll bet. Besides, it's always nice to see that there is a next generation of prog fans. 5) the antics of the entire band. These guys just have waaaay to much energy. I need to find out what caffeine source these guys use and buy stock in it. 6) the fog machine. There was a fog machine that would, almost w/o fail, let out a hiss of fog at the most quiet moments of the gig. It was funny. And occasionally, fog would rise up around nick, making it look like he was fire. 7) seeing a nice sized crowd there for the band. Really, it was a great turnout. When I saw DT last August and SB opened for them, quite a few people around me in line out front and inside had never heard of them. 8) having a polite crowd. for once, my night at a club show was not marred by irritating audience members. Plus, it was not a jam-packed crowd, there was enough room for keeping my legs moving. Anyhow...time to put away my 6 year old Ytsejam t-shirt and go to bed.
