I heard the 6 is going to be bigger.

Way Huge Echo-Puss, Aqua-Puss, or Supa-Puss? You don't want a Swollen Pickle, that's not your thing Strymon Blue Sky or Big Sky (reverbs)? Phaser? Chorus?

EDIT: they were awesome -- they have a couple songs that are >50% instrumental, so I think they can be counted as a "jam band". Might've been my favourite rendition of Ice yet -- during the middle portion, two of the guitarists just froze while the keyboard played for a couple minutes, and slowly all the guitarists started playing. It was kind of postrocky. And they played a couple songs I hadn't heard live before (Robots for Ronnie, A Night on the Town (with Snow White), Long Nights, A Sea Epic). I realize they don't play very far from Baltimore any more, but highly recommended.

Waiting to see Crack the Sky.

I totally dig it. I think it's the best thing they've done. But I've always hated cookie monster vocals. It's just one note, there's nothing musical about it. I do have to admit, though, it's nothing like anything from the golden lineup of Akerfeldt, Lindgren, Mendez, Lopez, which was kind of a bizarre combination (in being half Swedish, half Uruguyan) and magical. But that stopped being magical when Akerfeldt became the focal point of the band. Kayo Dot appear to be heading in a similar direction (less extreme).

And there's no way to run it off an external power source? Yeah, that might get inconveniently timed..

I would get the balcony not just for the grill, but because there are just some things you don't want indoors (e.g. painting vapors, gas cans when between cars, decomposing bodies).

>_< You know I like Colourfield a lot more than Fun Boy Three, but damn were they catchy.

Yeah, found that out. Silly salesman.

Sharing a grill with the commonfolk would require charcoal.

It was my understanding that there is no such thing as a king mattress -- just two twinses and some sort of even-ing thingy. EDIT: (wanders off to find out I am wrong)

Fish 'n' chips? [/rhetorical question]

Congrats!

4 day weekend last minute decision here, too.

Is Head-Fi down again?

I has red laptop, does that count?

Thanks, will do. I don't think those are mirrors, I think those are high-gloss "piano" black. Look, for example, what it's reflecting that you can see.

Wowzers, that sounds great. It's got just the perfect amount of reverb live room sound on it. Wait, he is close-mic on his voice, is that reverb or ... what? How is that mic-ed? (Can't get to the website from work, will look later when I get home.)

Fun Boy Three

Both of these.

This should go well -- a short conversation on Facebook I slay me.

DP? That's director of photography -- a Christian Bale reference.

RIP Boyfriend...condolences to your sister, Carl.

Condolences Ric & fam; RIP Miko.

Uuuuuuuuh...nope.
