| They're probably doing construction work up in the Great White
North. They do carpentry work when they're not on tour or in
the studio, or at least they used too.

| RE:31.0
I gatta agree with ya, I saw the Thunder Seven Tour...
Wicked good show, probably the best concert I've ever been to.
Did anyone else go to that concert??? What did you think of
that acoustic solo??? It blew my mind, I remember what he said before
he started his solo... " This is for all you guys that wish you
could play guitar."
I'd definately like to here more from them...

| I saw them on the Thunder Seven tour too. Great show! The lasers
were really tastefully used and totally unnecessary, since the music
was fantastic.
Dokken opened up for them...They really played, too! I missed about
1/2 their set due to some unfortunate circumstances, but enjoyed
every minute after finally getting there.
Who was the backup band your show?

How about a new album.
The last time I heard they were gonna start touring in the US in
The spring of 88. I think their Surveillance album is fantastic.

|
I need some help. I came back from the States with a Maxell Sample album
that contains different songs by different groups. One is by TRIUMPH
and I've never found it in any album.
It's : Moonchild / Blind Light Show
It's at least 20' long and it's really awesome.
On the cover they say it's from "Rock'n'Roll Machine" but I checked
on this album and it wasn't on.
Didier

| 31.11 | You may want to check again | CSC32::G_HOUSE | Big Yolanda will get YOU! | Mon Sep 05 1988 19:11 | 6 |

BTW: This is a cool album, I love the title track. (That cover of

Rick Emmet said in an interview (guitar player?) that they did
survalence only as a contractual thing with the record company.
From the sound of it, don't expect to see triumph ever tour or release
a album again. Oh well....

That's really sad news. TRIUMPH is one of my top-5 favourite bands.
Too bad...
I can't work anymore after this, and I gonna go home drink a beer and
listen to my "Allied Forces" on CD.

Triumph? Gone? They put on one of the greatest
light shows ever! I've seen them every tour
since AF (inclusive). Anybody know what
happened? This is like Rush breaking up (not
quite as bad though).

re:4
you wanted to know who TRIUMPH toured with for
some of their other shows. Well, my first concert ever was a
TRIUMPH show and it changed my life forever....R'n'R...F**K
YEAH!!!!..........They played with FOGHAT at GLENSFALLS,N.Y.
it was their NEVER SURRENDER tour...
i also saw them during their SPORT OF KINGS
TOUR in CLEVELAND with backup BAD COMPANY.....kind of disappointed
with B.COMP. without PAUL ROGERS but TRIUMPH was incredible
with their lazer light show and explosives. did you guys see
the lazer unicorn and seegull flying around....it was wild.
re: .5
i thought it was so appropriate when they added
that Reagen qoute at the beginning of TOO MUCH THINKING (i think)
"and let me tell you that is what i said before, a falsehood"
especially considering 5 years later reagen got himself into
that big contra-scandal.... what a bullsh**er he is!!!
re: .14
no??????!!!!!!, you can't be right, TRIUMPH
is over,i can't beleive it....what a total bummer!!!! please
let this not be true..... the best ROCK N ROLL show has ended
it, thats a catastrophy, i think i'll leave early too, go have
A BEER, and listen to my TRIUMPH tapes.......

HAD WANTED TO ADD AN ADDTION TO THE BAND WITH A KEYBOARD PLAYER
[I DONT KNOW HIS NAME] AND ALSO ABOUT HOW RICK WAS MAD AT THE WAY
MIKE LEVINE WAS ALSO TRYING TO CHANGE HIS STYLE.ANOTHER REASON ALSO
WAS BECAUSE HE WANTS TO LEAVE THE HEAVY METAL SCENE {WHAT A WHIP]
HE SAID ''I SICK OF THIS SAME OLD THING''.IT WAS IN HIT PARADER
MAGAZINE A FEW MONTHS AGO .SO THATS ALL I HAVE HEARD OR READ ABOUT
THE WHOLE MESS.BUT WHO KNOWS WHAT REALLY IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE

he does. I like his style.

| I can't believe Triumph is finished.. I saw them in Atlanta during
their Sport of Kings tour, and it was INCREDIBLE. I could not wait
to see them again...... I guess I won't.
For all of you avid Triumph fans, they put out a videocassette called
"A Night of Triumph" It was filmed in Canada during the S.O.K.
tour. It's pretty good; it has all their good songs on it.

I was listening to "Surveillance" in my car, when I understood that one of the

Made me think how some bands could rock with such sense lyrics about important
problems. Triumph was/is one of them.

race, and said Mike Levine was in the race. And in interviews
afterwards Rik Emmet and Gil Moore were with him and they metioned
something about being in the studio. But it's second hand info,
so don't quote me.
But I hope it's true!

I watched it, but if he said that, I sure missed
it. They weren't calling him ex-Triumph bassist,
but Don Dokken was in it too, and they weren't
calling him ex-Dooken singer ... then again,
he's still got the name, so....

| For those diehard Triumph fans. Rik Emmett has gone solo and formed
his own band, The Rik Emmett Band. They have an album out up here in
Canada. I don't know if it has or will be released in the States. The
first single is called "The Big Lie", I think.

heard the song "The Big Lie" and it is quite good. I'm not a big fan
of Triumph, but I enjoyed The Sport of Kings. Rik's voice has a hard
edge sound to it compared to TSOK. I will try to find out what the
album is called. If you really want the album, but cannot find it at

| I recently heard a demo tape that Triumph (without Rik) has put
together in preparation for a new album. It's as heavy as there
early stuff, but is definitely missing the talent of Mr. Emmett
as far as singing, guitar playing, and songwriting.
