| Any fans of Over the Rhine? @stuartk I'm not surprised about your reaction to The Innocence Mission, as they are more interesting musically than vocally. Over The Rhine exhibits enough complexity and originality to keep them from becoming wallpaper - background muzak. | |
| Any fans of Over the Rhine? @stuartk I'm not surprised, because the hypnotic quality of that particular album makes it the most unique one in their discography. Sometimes albums take a few listens before they get under your skin; so, kudos for remaining open-minded! | |
| Concert Ticket Prices - Not a Rant - Just an Observation @hotei , No, I don't think that you too much for that ticket. The $100 per ticket threshold is where I begin to ask a lot of questions: 1) How many times have I already seen this artist? 2) How long has it been since I last saw them live? 3) Is... | |
| Concert Ticket Prices - Not a Rant - Just an Observation In 2018 I saw 4 concerts in 5 weeks at 3 different venues (Aimee Mann - Dixie Dregs - Kaki King & Sixto Rodriguez). I managed to schedule a few business appointments near those venues, so that I could purchase the tickets at the box office(s).... | |

| Favorite Led Zeppelin Album Led Zep I; Led Zep III & Physical Graffiti. Gotta admit, I've recently started listening to Led Zep II again as listener fatigue from being massively overplayed has finally worn off. | |
| Favorite Beatles Song Tried to stop at five and then eight (days a week). Settled on a top 10 that spans most of their discography instead: Things We Said Today No Reply I'm Looking Through You If I Needed Someone The Night Before Baby You're a Rich Man Don't Le... | |
| Upgrade Power Cord for FM Tuner @hickamore , so what were your results when you swapped in the spare AQ power cord? | |
| SHARE YOUR SACDs THAT SOUND FANTASTIC!! One of my go-to SACD's is the debut album by AMERICA. This might seem like an unexpected choice; but, the original album was engineered by Ken Scott and the SACD mastering was done by Steve Hoffman. Coincidentally, Paul McGowans's (PS Audio) dail... | |
| Aimee Mann I saw Till Tuesday in 1986. I got very lucky and saw her in 1993 in a small club in Atlanta (The Point) doing an acoustic tour with Dave Gregory of XTC. Have not managed to see her since; so, I hope that her current tour will make it to my area.... | |
