Sandy's Impact on your Listening


How did Sandy impact your listening? For me, days without power provided a sense of value for my music listening.

I still have no power in the Northern Stony Point area of Rockland County NY. I had 3 huge thick trees fall on my lines, which ripped all the wires off of my house. I had no house damage, but I'm consulting an arborist real soon. I'm taking some trees down before they get me. Friends in my old neighborhood on the south shore of Long Island (Babylon) have houses partially gutted and washed into the canals. Actually, a couple of houses burnt to the ground while everybody watched, because the fire trucks couldn't make it though the water. Another neighbor had oil tanks floating around the crawl space, leaking oil into the water and the dirt. And not to mention parts of the Rockaways and Long Beach, NY. Total war zone all around. And then we get this stupid Nor'easter to sucker punch us. I was up all night waiting for another tree to fall. My wife works at 3 Broadway, NYC, near Wall Street. that portion of lower Manhattan near Battery park was under 6 feet of water. Her building was flooded, it's full of toxic sludge and she's been displaced to some cold place in Brooklyn with just a cell phone and a pencil.

Impact my listening? I don't think I could enjoy a listening session at the moment, even when my power comes back up. At least not for a while.

Be safe everyone.
