No worries, Dinny will buy one soon enough.

That's fairly close to being the most patronizing thing I've ever read.

Wonderful.

The Lemonheads -- Come On Feel The Lemonheads

You got a little turned on? Don't feel bad.

The Kinks -- State Of Confusion

Beer.

Aztec Camera -- High Land, Hard Rain Takes me back a good long way. Pretty much perfect pop.

JMoney lambskin Grado headband. It is choice.

Damn, beat me to it. Happy Birthday JSFVinylSpinner!

Underworld -- Second Toughest In The Infants

Steely Dan -- Can't Buy A Thrill

I think he should now become your downstairs neighbor. Permanent, like.

^^^ Like that a lot. Rodriguez -- Cold Fact Lot of interesting history with this one. Sank without a ripple in the US after release in 1970. Slowly became a huge cult hit in New Zealand and South Africa, of all places. Still possibly the spark-up album of choice when I was at the University of Cape Town in the late 80s. Nice remastered reissue here, finally, last year. Recommended.

Crosby, Stills & Nash -- CSN

From Illinois? Yeah, I could see that being a tiring day trip.

Apart from having to visit Glasgow, that sounds alright!

Ah, but these particular 650s came with a custom UPOCCPCPZZTOP cable, guaranteed* to blow through said veil like a hymen on prom night. * Void where prohibited.

Saw seed

Just tell the seller you'll only buy the house if the basement is mold inspected and remediated. Or that you want $20K or whatever off the price to get it done yourself. Worth a shot if you like the rest of the place.

Well, there's no going back. I bought a pair of used HD650s for a friend and, while they were passing through, took the chance to spend the afternoon listening to them side by side with the HD800s in my system. The 800s simply pissed all over them. Despite having lived very happily with both 6X0 series Senns in the past for extended periods -- they now seem uncomfortable, lethargic and muffled to me by comparison. Off you go!

Happy Birthday!

The Cardigans -- Long Gone Before Daylight

"Brasky drank a full glass of liquid LSD with his eggs. Then he slept for 8 months straight. When he woke he rubbed his eyes and said, 'All in all, I prefer gin.'"
