"Dragons Kiss" is a Zesty, but kinda standard, Instrumental Guitar album. He
gets to show quite a bit of versatility, and his unique ethnic influences.
but the production <It on the dreaded Shrapnel label, home of Cheap
Production!> is a bit cheap. 
Cacaphony, Friedmans last band before joining Megadeth, pairs him with
techno=speed wizard Jason Becker <he joined David Lee Roth after Cacaphony>,
and I like them a lot. If you want your metal with steaming gobs of 
Guitar soloing, this is the band for you. "Speed Metal Symphony" is my
favorite, due to the heavier approach<"Desert Island" is amazing!>, but
"Go Off" kicks pretty good too, just a little poppier. Peter Marinos
vocals are an acquired taste <anyone else remember him from Le Mans?>, but
he was excellent live. Becker is a good foil for Friedman, and their
high speed dual guitar playing is exceptional. 
Friedman also takes several guest solos on Jason Beckers solo album, 
"Perpetual Burn". Fine work.

   Is it the one "recorded on James's 4-track right after (they) wrote
the song around the second week of November '87"  :)   I got that demo
from a Japanese release of the "One" single.  It also contains their
cover of "Breadfan" and 2 live recordings of "For Whom the Bell Tolls"
and "Welcome Home(Sanitarium)."  Hope this helps.

i just heard on a seatle radio station that metallica are holding an audition for a guitarist to replace james for the (at least) seatle concert. james will just be doing the vocals. some guitarists being considered are : (dont know the names so ill just mention their bands) the guy from sepultura, guy from overkill, guy from suicidal tendencies, guy from flatsam & jetson, guy from a metallica cover band. thats all i can remember.

The music's there, and for the discerning mind, it's pretty obvious what has
happened.  And with Megadeth following suit and Testament trying again, it's
even more obvious what's happened to metal.  And you, sir, are an example of
that erosion...

I know; I was one of them.  :^(

The problem was the Washington Metrorail system closed at 11:30 or something
that night, and everybody who was counting on it to get home had to miss 60%
of GnR.  I live in VA.  What was I supposed to do, drive to RFK during rush
hour?

I think it's idiotic to shut down public transportation EVEN ONE MINUTE
before the bars close on Friday or Saturday night.  Not to mention they
caused a bunch of people to miss over an hour of a great band.  

Another thing:  Why is it people on the net can only like one band?  IMO,
they both kick ass.

 Is this a joke or what.  Are the promoters afraid people will be too
tired to go to school?  I can't see concert promoters sitting around
saying "Well we'd better start an hour earily so everyone can get home
to sleep".  question:"Does anyone sleep after a Metallica concert?".
They probably figure FNM will play 2 hours, Metallica 3 hours and GN'R
10 min.

Come on- we all know that Metallica is playing first because they don't
want to have to wait if Axl decides he doesn't feel like coming to the
show. :)

When I went to the show, there was this constant stream of people leaving
after Metallica...  So much for the "real band". :)

Well, I just totally screwed up, the album is "Kill 'em All" and
not "Kill Them All" which I posted. God only knows how I didnt

The Faith-n-m/Metallica show has been rebooked in Toronto
for Sunday Sept.13th

the show will start 1hr earlier at 4:30pm instead of the 5:30 printed
on the tickets (which will be honoured).
This is because they recognize september as being "in school"...

oh yes, gnr will probably be there too, they will play last so that
you may go home early and get some sleep for school.

I noticed your survey says "Kill them all".  I don't recal an album called 
"Kill them all".  Besides that, wouldn't people get confused between that
and "Kill 'em all"?  (which surprisingly enough wasn't on the list)

	I don't know about the rest of you but I'm getting pretty tired
of worrying about when the Metallica/GN'R show is gonna happen in
Oakland. Bass(the guys/gals the sell the tickets) say the concert will
be on Aug20 (originaly scheduled for Aug21). I requested a few days off
for the concert (recovery time will be necessary ).  My date has also
had a hell of a time trying to arrange her schedule to Axl's. I
honestly don't care if GN'R is there or not.  If James is not able to
play let someone else play his part (does anyone know a guitarist who
does't try to play James's stuff?). I'm a major Metallica fan and I've
seen them in concert before (as well as listened to their CD over and
over (especially RTL)).  I know that James's accident isn't his falt but
I can't help feeling that I'm being asked to bend over only to be fucked a
few days before the concert.  Mayhappes we'll just plan on going to
Great America instead and if by some twist of fate the concert happens
we'll be at the concert.
