Great show and all, but the seating-only arrangement killed me. Who wants to see a band of this calibre whilst restrained to a seat? (That was rhetorical - I don't and I realise that some of you may wish to.) The Astoria is a great venue, probably the second or third best in London (after Brixton Academy and Shepherds Bush Empire). Big enough to get established bands, small enough to still be good. I was astonished that Transatlantic packed the place, don't know if it was a sell out but it was much more crowded than Spocks Beard at the same venue. The band loved it, I tell you that much, I think they must have been a little surprised themselves. Any bets on the second night surprise? I reckon "Close To The Edge" or "Hemispheres" are good candidates (now that would be something). They've covered a metal album, makes sense to do a prog classic next. Another thing that comes to mind is warm-up gigs. Will there be one? After witnessing a Transatlantic warm-up show, this is something I would definitely want to attend... Anyway, it's going to be a great couple of days...

Message-ID: I just uploaded some short samples from the completed Redemption album. Head over to http://ivorygate.com/redemption to check them out. Background info from the website's main page: Redemption's self-titled release is the first CD from a project that has been a long time in the making. This album encompasses many musical styles, but it can be best described as dark prog/power metal with a sound that reflects a hypothetical combination of Evergrey, later-period Savatage, Kansas, Iron Maiden and Fates Warning. The musicians for the majority of the album are, in alphabetical order: Rick Mythiasin (Steel Prophet) - vocals Jason Rullo (Symphony X) - drums Nick van Dyk - lead and rhythm guitars, bass, keyboards Bernie Versailles (Engine/Order Of The Illuminati) - lead guitar Guest musicians are, in alphabetical order: Ray Alder (Fates Warning/Engine) - lead vocals on one track, backing vocals on three others Mark Zonder (Fates Warning/Warlord) - drums on one track Chris Roy and Joel Decatur of Reading Zero are also helping out on backing vocals Michael Romeo (Symphony X) did some fantastic orchestral synth programming for the beginning and ending of one of the pieces. The album was produced by Ray Alder. Engineered by Bill Metoyer, Joey Vera and Nick van Dyk. Mixed by Joey Vera and Nick van Dyk. -- ~Michael Kizer < email_address_removed > < ICQ # 2070538 > "Enter ivory gates through midnight skies..." < www.ivorygate.com > Fates Warning ~ Island In The Stream < www.fateswarning.info > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------ End of YTSEJAM Digest 6237 ************************** === Contributions to ytsejam: ytsejam@torchsong.com === === Send requests to: ytsejam-request@torchsong.com === === Brought by the ghost of ytsejam@arastar.coms past === === Reach the owner of this list at: ytsejam-owner@torchsong.com ===
