  1. Glad all is well with you nato.
  2. the only upcoming shows I have planned are Umphrey's McGee in New Orleans, late night jazzfest show at the House of Blues. Doors at 1am, show at 2am. I've never made it to one of these late night shows, but me and Red Bull are bound and determined to make it happen!
  3. don't have it yet. i'll do a shoot out with the 840c and post results.
  4. Quad CDP-2.
  5. Yes w/o Jon Anderson, at the Beau Rivage Casino in Biloxi, MS. Fun show, some good playing, excellent setlist. 1,500 person theatre, not a bad seat in the house, very good sound for a rock show, and some great lights as well. The band was tight, and their stand in for Jon sounds exactly like him, its uncanny. Of course some of the playing lacked passion, definitely some "going through the motions" happening. When Steve Howe said something like "thank you Biloxi", I could almost picture him stealing a glance at the back of his guitar like Spinal Tap on that Simpsons episode. Having said that, when this type of music is played well and all the technical complex parts are hit right, its impossible for it not to be exciting. I was most suprised by how enthusiastic the crowd was. I honestly thought all those wasted well dressed middle-aged people were there to hear "Owner of a Lonely Heart", but the crowd was going ape shit during the mammoth prog numbers. And then for the lonely heart encore, everyone just sat down, until the inevitable "Roundabout" brought everyone to their feet. Afterwards the GF and I hit up the Buffet, which was pretty bad except for the desserts. Some kind of cookie cake wrapped around cheesecake, it was fucking awesome.

  12. i don't light fires in the fireplace though, per my previous post.
  13. its an actual functioning fireplace, but currently there are some hip candles in there. i plan on lighting them and turning out the other lights, burning some incense, donning my trusty black robe, and listening to sunn's domkirke at maximum volume.

  15. i've actually only used the fireplace once. its cold here now, but i'm still in the deep south, where winter is something that happens for two weeks in january. i am actually looking to setup the turntable right in front of the fireplace to take advantage of the stone mantle floor.
  16. hehe. the current setup seems to work with my current listening position, but of course there are months and months of tweaking ahead.
  17. seriously or is this another fire joke? i tried them a little wider but found closer together worked better.
