I've just upgraded the forum software to Xenforo 2.0. Please let me know if you have any problems with it. I'm still working on installing styles... coming soon.
Tonight the greatest radio station on earth, WRFL 88.1 FM Lexington, Kentucky, is playing FZ's Roxy and Elsewhere in its entirety.
This is a really good album. It is fun throughout. And even when it's not great, it's still pretty dang good. It has some of my favorite musicians who played...
The other night, I was getting annoyed by the rattling of my house caused by my subwoofer. And it got me thinking.
Since my sub is on a floor that is above the basement, I thought a lot of the noise could be cured by getting a Subdude or something similar. Then it occurred to me that I had a...
Why just pick on the accordion kid? This question could be asked of anyone who spends a lot of time learning to play an instrument. Sure, a pianist or a guitar player might have a better chance of earning some money from his skills, but that chance is still very, very small.
What a bunch of...
I agree. People will disagree about what they think is good. But that doesn't mean that everyone is right.
Truth be told, I am very torn on the issue of the objectivity of aesthetic judgments.
In any case, I certainly do not blame Paul for the fact that he doesn't like good music. After...
Last Sunday, I was lucky enough to see Vox Arcana. Yes, this another one of those "weird" jazz bands. No matter how many times I see a performance like this, I am amazed that I get to see it in Lexington, KY for such low cost. I guess we Lexintonians are lucky to have a local guy who has...
It seems to me that where the sounds are placed creates the stage. No sound, no stage. If no sounds are placed wide, then the sound stage is narrow. No sounds placed deep, then the sound stage is two-dimensional.
All of this to say: it seems to me that "sound stage" and "imaging" are two...
I do have Heresies, and they are almost pointed at each other. My room is small. Just over 1500 cubic feet. I've got one 2'x4'x4" absorber on each side wall, and I used to have one 2'x4'x4" absorber behind but to the inside of each speaker. I now put these two absorbers in front of the TV...
I think Hot Rats will be a good one to start with. Jazzy and jammy. I loved that one when I first got into Zappa, but at this moment I wouldn't rank it as one of my faves. It's good to start with cause it's middle of the road. Then again, maybe it's not good to start with because it's so...
Couldn't find a date to a KISS concert? Now, how can that be?????? :think:
Sorry, but it's hard to not have some fun at the expense of KISS every once in a while. I'll stop being a jerk now.
I think it's great that you can get a CD of the show. I think that making live recordings available for all shows wouldn't be all that difficult. The recording could be posted to the web, where it could be downloaded for a reasonable price.
Glad to hear the show went well. But what's with...
Great posts, Jam. Your experience with adding acoustic treatments is pretty much the same as mine. I too thought that the bass traps made more of a noticeable difference than the early reflection absorbers. But both did make a difference.
I love the idea of having the panels float off the...
