        _Screaming in Digital______________________________Editor's Note_

		Hi, folks.  Having imposed the 8k cap on digests, I'm
	going to start sending them out whenever I have 8k.  So much for
	keeping track of things by week!  I hope this is not a problem
	for anyone.
		I've contacted the person who's working on the 
	Official Queensryche Archives for the fan club, and arranged
	to send her some of the information contained on the FTP 
	site.  I hope to work with her to improve the completeness of 
	both archives, and perhaps offer a computerized version of 
	the Official Archive when it is done.
		In this issue: "Operation: Mindcrime" sheet music, 
	"Building Empires," a possible Thanksgiving show, and more. If
	you sent something and it's not here, look in the next one!

        _Neue Regel___________________________________________What's New_

	jgray@balboa.eng.uci.edu (Jeff) writes,
		All guitarists out there will be at once delighted and 
	disappointed to know that the guitar transcription of "Operation:
	Mindcrime" is finally out.  You will be disappointed to know 
	that, just like with Empire, only about half the songs are 
	included in the book.  Much to my dismay, 'The Mission' and 
	'Suite Sister Mary' were both left out, as were (if memory serves 
	me) 'Speak' and 'The Needle Lies.'  Included were 'Anarchy X,' 
	'Revolution Calling,' 'I Don't Believe in Love,' 'Waiting for 
	22,' 'Eyes of a Stranger,' and three more I think.  Oh, and it's 
	25 bucks - I don't know how the publisher thinks they can get 
	away with that.  What a let-down.

	00jjguske@leo.bsuvc.bsu.edu (James) writes,
		Will they add more footage to the video of 'Anybody 
	Listening' on the "Building Empires" video?  I personally hate 
	the edited version of that song.  I would love to see more and 
	hear more of that video.  I guess we will have to wait.

	starr@dpe.enet.dec.com (Alan) writes,
		According to a full-page ad in this week's Billboard, 
	"Building Empires" is not due in-store until November 10th, not 
	November 3rd.  Dunno what it's actually gonna be, but don't be 
	surprised if nothing shows up next Tuesday.

	pcrossma@cs.ulowell.edu (Paul) writes,
		I saw a new ad in this week's Billboard.  They have 
	changed the date of release from November 10, 1992 to the
	popularly known November 3, 1992, "Due to popular demand."

	stumpf_brad@tandem.com (Brad) writes,
		Does anybody know if the new "Building Empires" video is 
	going to be available on Laser Disc?  I personally would prefer 
	having this collection on Laser Disc!

	robert_mcmullen@askinc.ask.com (Robert) writes, 
		Have you heard anything about Queensryche playing 
	somewhere on Thanksgiving '92?  I live in the San Francisco bay 
	area and my girlfriend said she heard on the local rock FM 
	station, KOME, that Queensryche, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and 
	someone else (Temple of the Dog?) were playing on Thanksgiving.  
	She assumed it to be here, I told her it's probably in Seattle, 
	or a satellite radio broadcast or something else, since tickets 
	probably would've been announced around here by now.  The Sunday
	San Francisco Chronicle/Examiner Datebook didn't mention 
	anything, either.

		This weekend i bought a CD boot which i'm not sure has 
	been listed yet.  It is called "Operation: Livecrime" and is from 
	Amsterdam.  It is just like the domestic "Livecrime," but is 
	obviously a different concert recording.  It has some pretty nice 
	photos of the band playing, and is an excellent quality boot.  It 
	compares with the domestic release in sound, and I _highly_ 
	recommend it to anyone who wants more live "Mindcrime."
		I also happened upon an old "Rage for Order" promo 
	poster!  It is a blowup of the back photo of the band with a lot 
	of the symbols surrounding it and has some text about it being 
	the new Queensryche release, etc.  It's great!  I've been hoping 
	to find some old promo posters, and just happened upon this one 
	hanging on an old record store's wall.
		I've seen the vinyl release of 'Silent Lucidity' in the 
	UK.  It has a very nice cover, with a try-ryche cut out of the 
	center so that you can see the LP through it.  And the record is 
	painted silver.  It is very nice looking, but was too pricey for 
	me to afford at the moment.
		I also ran across a final copy of the "Operation: Empire"
	boxset in a store in Arlington, Texas.  If someone wants it, let 
	me know, and i'll give you the address of the store.  This 
	particular store also has a CD copy of the "Anarchy-X" bootleg.
		I ran across copies of the dual 'Silent Lucidity' CD UK 
	release, but again, didnt have the money to pay for additional 
	copies of 'Silent Lucidity' and the accompanying "Livecrime" 
	tracks.  The art work is quite good however, and would almost be
	worth the money just for the small booklet it comes with.
		There is a _very_ nice CD single of 'Best I Can' out of 
	Japan which has some assorted extra tracks on it.  I cant recall 
	exactly what they were, but i _do_ remember that there were two 
	versions of 'Best I Can,' and the cover art was really cool.
	It had a hologram-type of effect and was really nice, and really 
	expensive ($25).
		The final discovery i made this weekend, and something 
	which i'm going to purchase soon is an official Queensryche 
	roadie denim jacket!!  They are asking a _lot_ of money for it, 
	but i think i'm going to take it anyway, as it's such a rare 
	thing.  I'll let you know how it looks!

		Thus ends issue 54... if anyone has a problem with the
	possibility of getting 2 in 1 week, yell.  Else, 'Ryche on!
