Al, that's just incredible! Chalk full of awesomeness! I got into Robyn Hitchcock because he sounded like a reborn Syd Barrett on Balloon Man; have always enjoyed, though never really got deep into his catalog. But that night just looks like a great celebration of a great creative talent, by a bunch of others with great talent!

"We're sorry....the number you requested is not in service. Snow will continue for the foreseeable future." Un...believable..... Mother Nature is seriously pissed at us.

This is a big part of things, we read about the (now more publicized) accounts of bad things happening, so we get nervous. But I do like to help people in front of my son, so he knows it can be a good thing. I had a similar event a few months ago. Went in on a chilly morning for some routine blood work, and coming out saw an older woman standing there. I almost went by her, but stopped and asked if she was waiting for a ride. She seemed a little nervous but answered she was waiting for a bus but thinks she missed the most recent one. I offered her a ride to her home (about 90% on the way I was going anyway as it turned out). Still nervous, so I explained I would understand since I was a stranger, and offered to show her my license and have her call someone on my cell phone to tell who I am. She agreed (no license or call necessary) and we actually had a nice chat on the way. I heard a tiny bit of her life in Europe and when she moved to the USA. In any case, I echo the great words above, and thank you Steve...for being you

Thanks, Ian; your recommendation got me into her (that and a cover of The Gun Club song She's Like heroin To Me). Will surely check this out!

Yes, his Mercury recordings were great.....RIP to a great one

The best of America, right there......sorry you had to go through that CJ.....but Karma indeed came on strong. The saddest part is that those idiots still probably think you're to blame for them being arrested.

Sorry Tom....I don't even think the B's will beat the Leafs the way they're playing now...... Too bad the Isles have to play Pitt round 1, but still great to see them in the playoffs to begin with. I think in maybe two years they can be a potential powerhouse again, if they get good goaltending. And my cheer: GO B'S.....don't fucking embarrass this town!

Sucks for a Sunday Shelly. And congrats and Happy Summer CJ. Me: Took Karen and Andrew and went up to York and Ogunquit Maine, two beautiful seacoast towns. Really nice day, perfect blend of sun but a tiny bit of cool. We took a walk on a paved cliff walk called the Marginal Way and saw some great ocean views. Then Andrew and I got (to go, will have it tonight) two 5oz Lobster Rolls, from a small place in a quaint area called Perkins Cove. Voted best Lobster Roll in NE at one point.....drooling as I type this! A nice relaxing time to prep for what will likely be a hectic week.....

I had an MHDT Labs USBridge and it supported 24/192. Only literally used it once, but it seemed to work fine. Here is a Musiland converter that seems to be similar, and is cheaper. The VLink 2 handles 24/192 and has AES/EBU output which I like, and isn't so much more at $200. Then there's the HiFace 2, not sure of price, but that also does 24/192 max as well.

^^ It's not that bad, really Washington and NYR will be a great series to watch, both teams came on strong at the end and are coming in to the playoffs hot. Boston....well, not so much.....as someone on another forum posted, Boston is falling on their asses into the playoffs. Interesting potential for change in standings with this last game for Boston (make-up game): B's win in regulation: Bruins face the Islanders B's win in OT/SO: Bruins face the Sens B's lose: Bruins face the Leafs Now, Bruins could use a rest for some of their players (esp. Chara, he looks tired). And Ottawa I'm sure would really like a win of some kind to eclipse the Islanders and not face Pittsburgh round 1. And, of all the teams the Bruins would want to face, I think Toronto would be the most favored match-up. So there's a lot of motivation NOT to win.... Just looking forward to the playoffs now. The way the Bruins are playing, I expect a round 1 or round 2 exit, but we'll see if they can turn it up. But the others teams will be fun to watch, too.

Busy but fun day...did a BJ's run in the a.m., cleaned up around the house & garage, then went to my son's soccer game (0-0 tie, some good defense and an occasional lucky defensive bounce). Came back, gathered some alcohol and food to bring to neighbor's house for a going away party. They are moving (back) to Denmark next Saturday.... Now, going to settle and watch The Great And Powerful Oz with my wife.

Hope it's even pavement from here on in, Jacob. Best to you and Emily, enjoy!

Happy Birthday! Still lovin' that modded Adcom!

Just ordered 3-LP box set of Dead Can Dance Live

Done, good luck & thanks, Brent!

Happy Birthday!!

I still have a call to place to one of the upper level supervisors at NewEgg, I've written down a lot about what's wrong with their process and really want to see what he says. This is one more great example of a different company doing the right thing better and faster.

Is that a pic of Syd Barrett?

Fixed, for more fun....

Tried these out, they were pretty decent. However, I think I may have a similar siutation with Shelly in that they hung low over my ears, even with cups up the farthest they can go on headband. Having little to no hair doesn't help, either!

And the Bruins choked away ANOTHER win.....they are looking so piss poor now, thank goodness Montreal went on a slump, they can't seem to fail out of second place in the East....if neither team wins another game this year, Montreal will slip into second by virtue of the tie-breaker games. Something tells me this isn't going to be a deep run into the playoffs for the Bruins. But still glad to see teams like the Islanders and Toronto get in......

Yes, dear..... (2.5 dozen!)

Ditto. It was great to meet some of the folks in person (you especially, Tom). The one "newbie" I chatted with the most, Vertical, was a little older and a real nice guy. We talked more about the music and bagels than we did the equipment.

RIP....that Woodstock performance was indeed awesome

Done, good luck on the ride. Lost a HS acquaintance to Diabetes complications, glad to donate.
