hey, my head is clean! i rinse it at least once every week or two and get in a good scrub with dish soap for holidays. plus on friday nights i coat it with only the finest vegetable oils.

This was not here when I bought these from jpak. Now I'm looking to sell these, and I see this white grunge on my headband: Is this something normal that happens to the headband? It doesn't seem to wipe off, but I'm not wiping that hard because I don't want to rip the material.

yeah, i'm craving to hear an O2. of course i'd like to hear the rarer sennheiser cans as well, but I will never own them ever ever in history of the world.

in other nine inch nails news, trent has ditched his record company: From the above link: "Hello everyone. I've waited a LONG time to be able to make the following announcement: as of right now Nine Inch Nails is a totally free agent, free of any recording contract with any label. I have been under recording contracts for 18 years and have watched the business radically mutate from one thing to something inherently very different and it gives me great pleasure to be able to finally have a direct relationship with the audience as I see fit and appropriate. Look for some announcements in the near future regarding 2008. Exciting times, indeed."

wire season three, next deadwood season three.

welcome to head-case spritzer! Glad to have you.

Rules: 1. The video must be music related, meaning it can be a live performance, a music video, an interview with an artist, etc. 2. You must describe the contents of the video, you can't just post a youtube link with no accompanying description. Just something as simple as "<artist> plays <song> live" will suffice, but feel free to describe more if you would like. So those are the rules. Linky: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfjqZC5iTU8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfjqZC5iTU8[/ame] RZA from Wu-Tang describes covering/sampling "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" in a brief five minute interview. Interesting story about how George Harrison's son is a huge Wu fan and russell crowe gave RZA an old guitar. I just think the RZA is always interesting to listen to. This also makes Wu-Tang the first hip-hop group to (legally) sample a Beatles song.

yeah, no need to stick ones toe in the pool of vinyl, since turntables are a pain in the ass to ship. might as well just buy a high end table and be happy. and yes I realize I have a $400 direct drive turntable whose design has remained unchanged since the late 70s.

badass.

werd. what table are you looking at? they say that vinyl is king.

Its a fantastic looking set. Worth $45? Well, for that price I would have expected a slightly beefier case, but its plenty durable. I would think $35 would be more reasonable, but hell vinyl is pricey these days, so I can't complain. The good news is that the vinyl sounds great, only a few pops in the first track, from then on its quiet. The vinyl is thick, heavy, and perfectly flat. As far as sound comparisons go, I feel the CD has more punchy impact, more visceral immediacy. The vinyl doesn't make me want to "rock out" like when I'm cranking the CD . Typically I find the vinyl version of any album to be more visceral, but on this album it isn't the case. What you get in return is a surprising liquidity, considering this is a DDA, and the deep bass notes reach waaaay down low. This liquidity and deep bass makes the album sound slower and more PRaT-ty. Its like I feel like at any moment the record is about to slip into slow-motion, but it never does And no this isn't speed issues with my table, cause I have a technics. even die-hard DD haters will tell you the 1200 has perfect speed. What this all adds up to is a very involving listening experience that is different from the CD. If one has a vinyl rig, and loves this album, and is willing to spend the money, I recommend it.

i'm not the biggest radiohead, but I believe in what they are doing. I placed my preorder for the digital download last week. I paid 3 pounds (6 bucks). If its any good, I'll buy the discbox, which ships Dec. 3, according to the website (I thought it was originally slated for later this month?). I hope this is what we are moving towards. Who the hell needs record companies? Basically all they are is overpaid promoters who don't even like music. fuck 'em, straight from artist to the consumer, I love it.

Winding Wheel is a great audition track, but if I had to choose one from HB MFSL it would be: Ryan Adams - Oh My Sweet Carolina Also: Ryan Adams - Jacksonville City Nights (entire first half of album, CD and LP. its just so exquisitely recorded, so alive and clear but raw) Genesis - Squonk (both album version and "Seconds Out" version) Genesis - Afterglow Bob Marley - Natural Mystic (MFSL) Phish - Punch You In The Eye / The Sloth (NYE 2005, SB commercial release) Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers - A Night In Tunisia/Sincerely Dian (MFSL) George Kawaguchi's "Big 4" (XRCD 20bit K2) - whole album (this is actually a brand new audition cd for me, thanks reks) Grateful Dead - Dick's Picks 5 CD 2 - Estimated Prophet Joy Division - Closer (whole album) Medeski Martin & Wood - I Wanna Ride You (and other tracks off Uninvisible) Pink Floyd - Meddle (silver harvest OR mfsl, whole album) Soft Machine - 5th (recent japanese DSD remaster, first few tracks) And slowly some of these new Widespread Panic SBs are making their way into the audition tracks list.

oh, he said twenty-nine. Christ he's so insane.

Ah, okay. I remember someone putting them up for sale almost immediately after he had them refurbished, I couldn't remember if it was 003 and he took them off the market, or juzmister. I'm pretty sure your right though, I recall now if was juz. BTW, did you get your name from the Malazan series of books? There is a character in there named Icarium.

he's 82 years old?! or was it 72?

okay, I misread your first post.

dude, he's been clean since Exciter. basically thats what his first solo album (Paper Monsters) was all about.

holla, preorder it. songs: http://www.myspace.com/davegahanofficial

Finally watched episode one. Classic episode, no doubt. "You don't know me, you've just seen my penis."

I'm all for new features, but unfortunately I'm a black theme kind of guy. :'( But I'll go with the crowd on this one if a white theme is preferred.

nate is a total MOT. i bought some speaker wire from him, and he made me pay what he paid for the wire and the connectors, AND pay for shipping. So basically the only thing I got for free from him was the labor (terminating the wire and attaching the locking banana plugs and heatshrinking them so they look all nice), his additional time spent boxing up the wire and taking it to the post office, and his patient, friendly, and professional advice.
