YNGWIE MALMSTEEN Loses Over 50 Pounds, Becomes A 'Health Nut' - Nov. 9, 2004
The following message was sent earlier today (Nov. 9) to YNGWIE J. MALMSTEEN fan club members from the fan club's director, Anne Petty:
"Just got off the phone with Yngwie. Had a wonderful chat for a little over an hour, and got quite a few questions answered for the next newsletter. The new album is mixed, and he is just working on the sequencing of tracks before it is mastered. I know the album title, but I'm not allowed to tell. It might leak out anyway, but I'll say no more until he gives me the green light on that. This album will be quite long, with many different moods and styles of songs.
"He was very upbeat, in a great mood, can't wait to get out on the road early next year to promote this new effort. Says he's in great health — has turned into a health nut, no alcohol, no cigarettes, lots of tennis and working out. Has lost over 50 pounds. It's all good!"
A photo of the newly slimmed down Yngwie can be seen on the ebay acution page for the 1996 Malmsteen Model Fender Stratocaster which he is currently selling.

Zinc Master : about the crisis in Ivory Coast... One of my friends is American and she lives in France (Actually she comes from Portland, Maine). She told me that in the US they don’t know a lot of things about what’s going on all over the world... So I guess that’s why you had no idea that problems were taking place in Ivory Coast. You have to use the internet network to know it.
This is a british report :
“Operation Unicorn, the French military presence in the Ivory Coast, attracted little international attention until an outburst of weekend violence which included the deaths of nine French soldiers, the retaliatory destruction of the country's tiny air force and the killing of 50 Ivorien demonstrators by French troops. This is a crisis with an old-fashioned colonial feel but one which is attracting as much media attention in France as Iraq currently does in Britain.”

And about the beer stuff (Yeah it was two days ago) This is what I found :
Yesterday, scientists for Health Canada suggested that, considering the results of a recent analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer, men should reconsider their beer consumption.
The theory is that drinking beer makes men turn into women. To test the theory, 100 men were fed six pints of beer each within a one-hour period. It was then observed that 100% of the men gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became overly emotional, couldn't drive, failed to think rationally, argued over nothing and refused to apologize when wrong. No further testing is planned....

The Bob: Yngwie looks better with blubber on his face. When I saw him live on the G3 tour, I was expecting to see a skinny guy. But when he skid on stage and started shredding, dude, I had the laugh of a lifetime. Not only was he amazing to hear, but he looked like such a clown that it became even more fun to watch. So, I like the fat Yngwie, not the phat Yngwie!
Clarky: Unleashed in the East, I will definitely check out the album. In fact, I will be out to buy it today. I have liked JP but never heard much. I did hear somewhere that even Metallica layers their tracks, I guess most musicians do. Are there any specific riffs you learnt when you started playing? The first riff I ever learnt was Black Sabbath Children of the Grave. Thats another secret I am trying to unlock. The key to being simple. Megadeth's Holy Wars...The Punishment Due has some really kick ass riffs. Have you ever heard it? Maybe you can do a cover version...would like to hear it!

Hi everyone, I`m from Chile and I'm hoping that the 10 of december came so fast, Satriani is the most extraordinary guitar player that I've ever seen, and a nice person full of "carisma" and humility, G3 is something holy in my country that we have been waiting for so long,
Viva SATRIANI Y VIVA CHILE MIERDA!!!

Abba Reunion Would Only Disappoint, Singer Says
Entertainment - Reuters
BERLIN (Reuters) - Swedish pop legends Abba will not be getting out their spangly jumpsuits again because a reunion would only disappoint their fans, former Abba singer Bjorn Ulvaeus was quoted as saying on Wednesday.
"I can understand that people are longing for Abba, but deep in my heart I know that they would be deeply disappointed if they saw us back up on the stage again today," Ulvaeus, 59, told Germany's Bunte magazine.
"Just look at our videos," he added. "That energy, that drive, that enthusiasm. You just wouldn't see that anymore if the four of us got on stage today. It's just not there."
Abba was one of the most successful 1970s European pop groups. They won the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with "Waterloo" and subsequent hits included "Fernando," "Dancing Queen," and "The Winner Takes it All."
The group split up in 1981. Four years ago they turned down an offer of $1 billion to re-form.
The two couples who made up pop's most famous acronym -- Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny and Anni-Frid -- have long since divorced.

Joe, I came to your show in Columbus a couple of weeks ago. First off, I must say, absolutely amazing. Aside from some of the drunks running around, it was a great night. Can you explain how you do the really high slide / bend in the main lead part to sleepwalk? When you did it live, I didn't think I saw a slide, but it kind of sounds like a slide. Thanks.

erm...strange e-mail (and before you read, yes they have contacted me before).
"We wrote you earlier about the material on your web site. With the holiday
season quickly approaching, a period where record companies sell significant
product we would be interested in pressing up the material you have available,
AT OUR EXPENSE, and putting it in retail record stores. We would also engage
in some radio promotion on it to energize sales.
We are offering to pay you a 25% royalty of what we sell, a very generous amount
by industry standards.
This would be a non-exclusive relationship and would not restrict you in any way
from making, selling, distributing or otherwise entering into other record
contracts.
You would not give up any ownership to your music, copyrights, trademarks or any
other intellectual property associated with your music and the recordings.
Attached here please find an execution agreement for your review and signature.
Please print out 2 copies of the agreement. Sign both copies on the last page
where indicated in blue ink. Initial the bottom of each page other than the
execution page in blue ink.
If you don't have existing cd art files we will generate them at our cost.
Please return both copies to me at the address below for my signature along with
your audio and art files. If you do have art files we prefer jpeg and Photoshop
files, second choice would be tiffs and third choice would be bitmap files. If
your going to send us completed designs remember to save some space on the tray
card for bar codes and label logo these "zones" do not need to be white out just
empty of typesetting. If you need any assistance with these issues don't
hesitate to contact me. As for the audio, 2 CD's one with regular CD files and
a second CDr with the audio in wav files would be ideal. If you don't have both
formats available, that's fine we will have it converted in our mastering
facilities but it would save us a couple of steps if you can make it available
in both formats.
Checklist of things to send in:
1. Master CD audio files
2. Master CD with WAV files if possible
3. Signed Contract
4. CD with art files, photos, etc.
5. Bio if one is available
6. Select a web option in paragraph 2. Contracts that come in without a web
option selected will be held pending instructions so be sure to make the
election. (if you elect to be on the Statue Web site there is a one time set up
fee, please see the contract and send in a check when you send in the rest of
the materials, there are no other fees of any kind ever)
Best Regards,
Geoffrey Emery"
Any one give me an opinion on this as I have no sure reaction to it right now lol....
