Thank god for that.

Ya think?

Uh, the guy from King's X or something. No, it was a group that only had a couple albums, if not only one. Oh, yeah, T-Ride, Geoff Tyson. Also: Larry La Londe? Charlie Hunter? Alex Skolnick? a bunch o' others: Joe Satriani - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

No, I put that up as an example of how close they are to Satriani, to wit: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Vml7SwxXTI]YouTube - Joe Satriani Shreds[/ame]

See?

I think there are people in both camps. I know a lot of people think he plays without feeling (all "technical" and "chops" just because he teaches as well as plays), but I, for one, think extremely highly of him.

Oh.

Birchmere, yummy. Why do you care about Virginia? Or was that for Dan?

He did say he just got an email from NSL... ...so I'm guessing, not too far behind/away/whatever.

I doubt that's the intention, if it's an electrostatic.

Also...alright, so you have a pocket projector. I'm thinking it'll be a fraction as bright as a regular projector. What are you going to project it on? Screens have certain ratings, one of which is essentially their albedo -- how much of the light they reflect back. Walls? Not so much. Might work well for a corporate environment where you will actually have access to screens, but otherwise, you're going to either need a screen at your destination, or a portable screen of some sort. Excuse me, "totable".

Yeah, that's what I was waiting for, when they didn't shoot the thing right away. I was sure that with the first shot, the copter would just disappear -- as in, exit, stage right, at great velocity. Or something. It also doesn't sound right -- sounds like caps. It might be shooting something, but that ain't no .45. Also -- accident waiting to happen. Would you be standing anywhere in the vicinity of a remote-controlled trigger without bulletproof glass? Can you imagine if the first shot ended up aiming the gun at you, and then the trigger somehow accidentally got pulled a second time?

Yes. You get an extra IEC jack, and the peace of mind associated with using that word, "monoblock". I like that word, "monoblock" -- my speaker amp is "dual monoblock" (which is like stereo, but is also like monoblocks in the same chassis). I'd pay the extra $500 for it...if I were in the market. Also, crosstalk can be dynamically altered by moving one amp further away from the other, and becomes a function almost in its entirety of the preamp and source.

No, perfect pitch is absolute. If someone were to play an F# on a piano hidden from view, you should be able to -- without floundering around -- hit an F# on a neighboring piano, merely by hearing the first one. That's perfect pitch. So it does require enough musical training to know what the notes are. Being able to identify which note it is by trying different notes -- I.E. establishing that it is higher or lower -- only means that you're not tone deaf.

Yeah, I ain't got no HD650's, neither. Pfff. We'll get into it if I feel like getting into it. I just don't feel like getting into it right now. There is no "let's not get into that" condescending "I own this thread" crap on head-case, there is only backs of heads and shovels.

Is it just me, or am I not seeing any kickback? In other words, I don't believe that is real. boob lube - Google Product Search

I voted, just so that I could complain.

I think you missed my edit.

Okay, substitute Tom Waits in there, and try again.

Unless of course, one is not playing that kind of music. I mean, do you really think Les Claypool would be improved with perfect pitch, or would he be so busy obsessing with pitch, that he'd forget to be creative. (And I pick Les Claypool arbitrarily, but I think you see my point.)

Solid state has its own characteristic distortion, too.

Now I have that stuck in my head. (wanders off to find an mp3 of that)... They need an Andy Samberg's Greatest Hits CD.
