Happy birthday, Juan! (party favour noise) Ha-ha! (laughs and points)

Happy birthday, Jeff, hope it was hoppy! (party favour noise)

Aye -- I mean, I don't, but only because I can't be arsed bothered to hate. A lovely lass "doing" Beethoven (NSFW Facebook video)

I went to great lengths to get the front panel flush with the monitor of the computer I was using them with, and have a bit of overhang on the reams of paper I had them on. They sound even better once you get them out in the room a bit. You can't create something from nothing, so nothing will invent the lowest bass that isn't there, but when I had them in the office, I never missed a sub.

I'll have to see if anyone caught that on Facebook. Lollers

random food truck bulgogi -- was good! Kimshi's a little fresh, though.

Ras Dva records founder Ric Laciak succumbed to brain cancer recently. RIP, Ric.

Happy birthday, John! (party favour noise)

Really? Fuck you. Just. Fuck. You.

"We don't fucking sell [sunglasses]." (long shot of typical cloudy day) (wipes tears from eyes) I can't watch this at work, even with headphones, people will wonder if I'm bipolar because I'm both laughing and crying.

"Ooh, tea!" Lollers...

Noted and opened in a new tab for later listening, finishing up the new(!) Art of Noise album, Reduction as yet.

Happy birthday! (party favour noise)

Taylor Swift (because of her notorious relationship with Spotify) Porcupine Tree Robert Fripp King Crimson (because of their notorious relationship with the digital download community, iTunes, etc.) Pineapple Thief (personal thing -- one of my favourite bands, possibly my favourite current band -- I have everything on Spotify and nothing on Tidal) And vice versa -- if you don't feel like signing up for a US trial, let us know which ones you're missing that you want one of us to look up, I'd be happy to.

Leftover rice and peanut curry...passing out in 59...

Not for Graham, it doesn't. No, seriously, I'd be curious if you're missing anything, Graham, I.E. the reverse scenario.

Corral was basically early Anneke Gathering Adrian Weiss was basically a Satriani-esque wankfest Merlin Bird was in the Pure Reason Revolution/white willow genre

So much great stuff on progstreaming, now listening to [A]Synchronous, Taylor Watson

Hurray! I can find some of the wines that I lost track of in that thread ("typography", etc.).
