Sorry, not directed at you, but fuck the fact that it's entertaining. That's half the reason that Trump is actually in the running. We can't be swayed by the entertainment factor, this is serious!

The problem is that we learned to hear with the earflaps that we have, so the mind literally compensates for them. I suspect the whole point in HRTFs are for IEMs, which bypass the earflaps.

\ Jeff is up that way somewhere. Me v. I finally got my mac&cheezburgr. I ate around the mold.

Goddamn, I love this album.

Riverside guitarist Piotr Grudzinski Goddammit. I had a ticket last fall and forgot to go. They were about to go on tour (which I'm sure is now cancelled, because I doubt they can find a replacement in time). Goddammit.

S is for 'sexy', not 'night & day'

Love that one and the Message in a Box Police boxset.

Mom? Dad? Goddammit.

Cranial explosion would be bad.

Happy birthday! (party favour noise)

Sorry I'm late, network troubles.

Paul Gordon, B-52s

I think we also need to know whether that is a 12 hour clock or a 24 hour clock. Musical Fidelity is always nice. They have amps from toebreakers to the petite ones like the XT100 or the X150.

Sweet!

I mean, he tabs everything. The cat goes quiet, but the chords keep changing.

I love this latest collaboration album with the Soulsavers. Love. It breathes. It has space. Reminds me a little of Spiritualized's more gospel leanings.

Damn you, Ikea!

Noice!

It's all about the inside temperature -- there are a minimum of two phases -- obtaining a desired internal temperature, and sustaining it for x amount of time.

Bauhaus -- yup, that's pretty much all you need. Unless you like the "Slice of Life" stuff, in which case you may need to delve into Tones on Tail. They have a two-disk set called Everything which is, literally, everything they've ever done. And then there's Love & Rockets... Re: country -- I don't usually listen to country, but one of my best friends is in a country band, and I've quite taken to them. They have some delicious guitars and amps and microphones...it's just too bad they don't have a version of their quintessential song, "If I'd Shot You Sooner, I'd Be Out of Jail by Now". Lollers. They also do a lot of what I call retro revival -- think Sun Studios era rock'n'roll.
