I'll buy Brock's Barbecue hot sauce again, definitely. It's a small local BBQ (ahem) "joint" run by an ex-State cop. Politically I haven't much in common with him, but the guy smokes a mean swine! (Best thing to do with mean swine, as many of you will agree.)

The sauce isn't hot enough to kill the sense of taste. But it makes my fur sweat... that's how it feels, anyway. =^_^= Mmmm. Great french fries and beer batter onion rings too.

It's the best sounding corner of a suburban Virginia apartment I've ever heard. The audio quality of your work is outstanding. Do you have a BBQ sauce recipe?

I thought I was the only one who's into greek philosophy and Kurt Cobain at the same time, hehe. For me it's more Plato than Aristotle though. (to be honest i never got into aristotle big time so my preference for Plato is not necessarily because I think he's better, but 'cause I know him better. Anyway, Cobain's comments on 'from the perspective of a thirteen-years old' is as good a philosophy as any - did you ever read the "Journals"? It's a great read).

I am sorry, but though his 'journals' interest me, it is his Melodies that I love more than any words he may have written.

I think he was the finest melodist that ever played in a band with that kind of power chord simplicity. His best have the timeless quality of a folk tune, or a spirtual or gregorian chant.

It's humbling.

I've been thinking that too.

But it seems to me that hardware is more on the "I'll but again" list than software.......for the most part......
yamaha is just great in general. No other company that I know of has such a wide variety of products yet still keeps a great quality.

I can't get over this little mg 10/2 mixer.....I just needed something small and inexpensive that actually sounds really good........fit that bill!

In fact, that soon will be very possible.

Experts are standing by, ready to translate them into .rex and acidized .wav files from their original archaic greek.

The world of ancient greek dance music will never be the same.

me too

though i know some rooms in suburban virginia homes that sound better than the corner of my apartment. (damn them!)

Do you have a BBQ sauce recipe?

not of my own, but my mother was telling me about some new generic "stuff for the home" type store that opened up in leesburg or ashburn that apparently sells lots of killer sauces. i tried a few over at her place and i must say i was impressed. she had a habanero barbeque sauce that was really quite good. (and not overly hot, which is surprising for anything with habanero on the label.)

i'd have to say, i have an old cassette copy of "meaty big & bouncy", something like that, by the Who, don't even know where i got it, and i'm blown away how well it stands up for lyrics, subject matter, melody, song structure, DRUMMING, POWER CHORDS, etc.... nirvana didn't start "good" rock 'n roll...

just a thought...

(EDIT) the way he did that leadbelly tune, you can tell that guy "got it"... he was a very good song writer, not trying to take that away....

Dude, I am an old man.

The Who, Led Zep, Cream and the Yardbirds were my teething music.

What gets me about Kurt isn't his talent per se, but the way that such intense melodic talent shone through in such a non melodic context. I mean, I LOVE the Melvins, but 'melodic' in the usual sense they aren't.

In addition to the multiple previous mentions of Fender, Yamaha, Korg, etc...

Pioneer - DVD burners
Sennheiser - headphones
SanDisk - flash drives/media
Antti - VSTi freeware which is more than worthy of generous donations! I shall contribute some more when the next version of ASynth comes out... (Antti, perhaps two syncable LFO's?

hint hint)
