I've been playing lots of Porcupine Tree in the car since the concert -- mostly In Absentia, Deadwing, Fear of a Blank Planet, and, of course, The Incident. Soon, I'm going to roll over to the earlier albums and just go through them all (or rather, most of them -- will skip Metanoia, Voyage 34: The Complete Trip, &c.). Right now I've got "Darkest Eyes" stuck in my head. I think I'll leave it there. EDIT: Of course, it would help if I got the name right -- "Blackest Eyes".

Ooo. Aaaaa.

So Sunrise would take about 2-2.5 hours? And above the arctic circle, it could take days on the longest "days" (what are days based on sunrise/sunset called -- solar days?)?

Awesome.

I wonder if it's DRM...

Ranked A+ as a transport in Stereophile's last list, so yeah -- I'm kind of curious myself.

You'll get over it. Sound ueber alles.

OH-poe? I thought it was ƏH-poe, as in ƏH-poe-zit.

Is that the radioactive symbol on there? And if so, why? Is that how it's powered?

You ever heard the Temptations' 7 minute version?

Corduroy.

Of course, now you know it, too. As do I.

Sale price? Think I'll wait and see, though I am interested.

Too. Fucking. Hip.

Poor dolphin, doesn't look happy.

I love Misplaced Childhood -- probably top 10 from the 80's. I lived it during the late 90's (had a tape that had the studio version on one side and the live version on the other). Me: new Yello.

Someone else will have to correct you, I haven't actually seen the universals. Boomana? Duggeh? I know you two played around with the pair that Ms. Harvey sent you.

You realize you just ruled out about 90% of all watches. Unless I'm misunderstanding you. How about hardly anything at all? I like it when it's totally confusing. E.G.:

Wait, so now I'm confused: there's the CD, the digipak, the vinyl, the CD/Tee/autographed picture thingy, but then there's also the "mailorder edition" boxset? WTH? Oh, and I was going to order the vinyl from Nuclear Blast Europe, not Nuclear Blast USA, the latter of whose pages do indeed just tell you to go over to CMDistro.com. Oh well, I emailed Nuclear Blast Europe, hopefully they will be getting up soon and answering my questions soon.

No, not really. I'm shameless, so if something really good comes up, I'll share. But my memory isn't what it used to be and I am easily distracted. I'm sure there's some Jeff Lynne or some Ozzy that I misheard. Or Michael McDonald. Those guys really slurred a lot.

Yeah, the Bell & Ross Phantom and something from the Hublot Big Bang series are two reasons I play the lottery. And yes, I'd get black ones with colors, too:

Happy Birthday!

Hawt.
