Would like to start a club, or a small group of audiophiles, whereby we can network and share experiences about our favorite neurotic passtime.

I will try to make it to the Tyson's event, hope to meet some of you 'Goners there...
I'm in Bethesda, MD and would love to get together with some fellow 'Goners. We can hold the first meeting at my place, if you like, then you guys can get a good laugh at my expense [smile]. Call me at (301) 897-8516 (nites) or send e-mail to: [email protected] if you'd like to get together....
I have contacted several folks who have expressed interest in forming a "club" and received positive repsonses from all.

It was suggested to me, and I concur, that we initially meet at the upcoming Tysons Corner record show being held Sun. Mar 9, 2003. If you'd like to get together with us at this event, give me a shout directly and we'll work out the details: [email protected]

I hope to see you there!
I'm of a similar mind as Zaikesman, above. Frankly, I don't really give a damn so much about the equipment, it's the music that matters to me. For that, I generally download live shows off the Internet - I'm heavy into the "jamband" scene and I can find tons of stuff that pleases me at Archive.org

And, like Zaikesman, I'm not much into the music that most "audiophiles" seem to enjoy - I have an HDCD copy of "Jazz at the Pawnshop", and, while it sounds good, I think I have listened to it *maybe* two times in 3 years - the music is simply not my cup o' tea.

Having said all that, I would still be interested in learning of and/or hearing new (to me) music - but I am *never* gonna be a hardcore jazz/punk/techno/metal fan, much less a consumer of Brazilian nose flute music...

So, if you're into jambands, rock, rockabilly, _some_ country, _some_ classical (I like works where everyone in the orchestra is earning his pay), let's compare notes and maybe even swap some music.

But, if you wanna sit around and try to hear the differences between your CDP sitting on this cone or that cone, count me out - life's too short to sweat those details, IMHO...
