Earth Day, turn those amps OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Earth Day, turn those amps OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've said it before, I'll say it again, it is Environmentally IRRESPONSIBLE to leave your equipment on for long periods of time, before or after, or truly despicable, ON all the time!

On, 20 mins, listen, done, off!

Doctors, Lawyers, Trust Fund Kiddos, come on now.

Where were you in 1970?, I was there in Manhattan (went to college at Pratt in Brooklyn 1966-1970)

Earth Day?  What I do with my equipment is no ones business but my own.  Several manufacturers recommend leaving your equipment on all the time.  I leave my Class A, AB and D amps on all the time.  I turn my tube amps off when I am done listening.

don't let no one tell you not to f up the planet, you go have a carbon footprint of an African country.... because you can! Screw those tree huggers.

Similar life threads for me here but not the kind you wear.

I am a retired advertising photographer but have always done my thing ( If I put my web site link here it would be quashed.) I ride my bike at least two hundred days a year. I listen to music several times a day. Happy to do a honey do errand and tune out.

I have, to date, met three like minded souls (nut jobs? filberts?) sleuthed out from the Agon elusive wall of who is who and done shown and tells with two and have become good friends with one. Most importantly the deep knowledge bench here has been the proverbial god send of help and I’m so grateful for that gift.

Oh and… Somethings are rare and impossible to find. On Dec 7 2018 Rosanne Cash & Ry Cooder in SF, CA played a psychedelic version of Ring of Fire. I have been on the hunt this morning for a good quality recording of that. Anyone have this?

Some images but a tad misleading from my main bent.

 

I used to care about this a lot but I don't really care about it anymore it's a lost cause.

The planet is quickly deteriorating. The Atlantic current flows are getting directed in new ways which will cause climate chaos. The North Pole is melting because darker oceans are just absorbing too much heat.

We are building too much and crowding out wildlife. There ain't much of it left.

And we have a really strange guy in the White House who could give a crap.

Basically it's a lost cause.
