I'd be curious how easy the K1000s were to measure -- according to the video, these suffer all the same variability and sensitivity to position that the K1000s did. But yeah, at US$4K, not even curious.

So...Andrew W.K., except pop?

So not just T-Rex, but Jesus T-Rex? Awesome.

Listened to everything by Katatonia on Tidal, decided I still like Katatonia more'n Leprous, but then listened to Leprous and decided, I still like Leprous an awful fucking lot. Now listening to Spacecraft. Ambient fucking heaven.

TMW you realize there's a guy being arrested in the background, and you realize that doesn't matter.

So painfully hot foods used to hurt...twice (as the comedian said), but I have something going on deep in my intestines, so now it would hurt three times. I think I'll take your advice, despite the temptation not to. Does it have any flavour? PS Thanks for taking one for the team.

Daw!

Happy birthday, Marc! (party favour noise)

Chicken Chettinad

Yay! A year of not shitting myself will be a very good year. Thanks again everyone!

Splash of color on a black background — my favourite! Thank you, I will keep it and cherish and make it my desktop background.

Cool, thanks for sharing! Hope you feel better.

I need to get that. Did you get it or rent it? And if you got it, which version did you get? I'm tempted to get the box set.

Thank you everyone. It was a great day. My sister (the Alaskan one, not the Californian one) was coincidentally in from out of town, so I pretty much spent the day with her -- she took me to Perfect Pour where I got my (currently) favourite whisky -- the West Virginian Smooth Ambler Contradiction (although I was hoping for 3 bottles, they only had the one), so I got a few other things. Then I had a delicious samosa made with curried potatoes and a superb chicken vindaloo. Now I'm winding down with an episode of Knucks's radio show. AND NO SHITTING MYSELF! So all in all, a good day.

Thanks, everyone!

Durutti Column ==> must check out

Dig! It's a really good documentary.

Yeah, that one's almost a siren/wail. I was completely taken aback the first time I heard it. It's so perfectly repetitive, I thought it was a recording or something.

I love egg noodles.

"some kind of conniption fit" -- around 3am? I call that the "midnight nutties". Most cats do that.
