That sounds cool. The one I have does dots -- bigger, blurrier dots, and smaller, more focused dots.

First of all, it sounds like stalling tactics. Secondly, on the off chance that they're not stalling, but rather just dragging their feet, you may want to mention this to them. I'm sure if they're even remotely interested in good PR, they would like to have a showing at the FL meet.

Oh, shit! I hope you get that sorted out, identity theft sucks.

He pronounces "reality" as "REE-leh-tee" -- sort of like "realty" with a third syllable shoved in between the 'l' and the 't'. It's funny because the rest of the song is so ballad-serious, "I'm sorry I want you so bad, you love someone else, I'm a stalker, but they made a video about me anyway". 5 guys standing around in model poses looking at each other, at their hands (it's snowing), off into the distance...posing for 5 minutes, pretty much. It's not as bad as the faces they make during "We Will Rock You", though. I like Plastic Tree better.

Pfff. Actually, isn't it, 'faggotry'?

Why you make googly eyes? Or, rather, googly o's.

There are good visits to the taxidermist?

Ooooooo, there are black themes.

Not as crazy as Patrick, but...yes. I mean, think about it this way -- would you rather have that pamphlet than a CD or two? Or a $15 lunch or dinner? My answer is an easy 'no'.

That's hilarious that you can assign your own rating.

Any idea how to find out what is in this one, for example?

And use about a thousand layers of shellac. Splinters...(shudders)...

The silver hides dust better.

I am really happy with my M-Audio Sonica, following that description. It renders the output from a computer from "unlistenable" to "quite listenable". Not the "...Theater", it's sort of the precursor to the Transit. Retailed for US$90, should go for ~US$50? on the used market. I actually just looked on eBay and didn't find any.

Brightblack, ala.cali.tucky Alchemist, Tripsis The Crown, Crowned Unholy Winds, Prominence and Demise Ulver, Shadows of the Sun Electrelane, No Shouts No Calls Edward Ka-Spel, Pieces of (infinity) (with infinity cleverly being represented by a sideways "8") Fujiya & Miyagi, Transparent Things Elend, A World in Their Screams Strings of Consciousness, Our Moon is Full Electric Soft Parade, No Need to be Downhearted Freezepop, Fashion Impression Function EP Young Gods, Super Ready/Fragmente Ghost, Tune In, Turn On, Free Tibet ...and that's just the Rasputin haul.

No, they add a bit of euphony to proverbially take the edge off, but they don't literally take the edge off. Think, "beer goggles".

I pictured them having a handheld dogfight, as young males are wont to do.

Oh, okay, I misunderstood. I thought they were the same thing, only before some sort of split.

Ridiculous! I think I need to hear someone else's R10 setup besides Hirsch's.

Thanks! Fucking lapped me, you fucking fuck.

Went a little apeshit at Rasputin and Amoeba when out in California. Here's the beginning of the list: Fear Falls Burning & Birchville Cat Motel Fear Falls Burning & Nadja Hirsche Nicht Aufs Sofa -- Im Schatten der Moehre Robert Rich -- Humidity Martha Argerich, Michael Collins, Nelson Freire, Chantal Juillet, et all -- Bartok, Liszt, Prokofiev, Music from Saratoga, Live Chris Connelly -- Episodes Peter Gabriel -- Birdy (SACD) David Bowie -- Ziggy (SACD) Allman Brothers -- Live at Fillmore East (SACD) Momus -- Stars Forever

I'm not saying I don't like them, I just never got that much by them. I'd probably like them a lot, from what I've heard. I'm the one that's mediocre (as a fan), not them.

Scofield Trio w/ScoHorns at Yoshi's in Oakland last week -- kinda meh, I remember liking him better than I liked him that night.

Jesus. When did that happen? BTW, what you win is, the "I have no life"/I am a net.addict contest. Congratulations, says the runner-up. Oh, and: YOU ARE NOT YOUR POST COUNT!!!1!(eleventy)
