Colin, that is Tyler/Sherwood with the pitcher.

Nice. Peter looks very sassy on the eve of his birthday! Have fun fellas.

Great list Shelly. You and Reks are both right that Wild Turkey Rye is good stuff and at 101 proof it is even better. I would add Cointreau or Grand Marnier or Curacao because an orange liqueur is called for in so many cocktails and one of them will do you. Triple Sec is cheaper but the usual brands are too sweet and annoy me. Fitz likes him some Scotch, so don't forget a bottle of something you would be willing to mix with for a nice Rob Roy, a Stone Fence, or Blood and Sand (if you get cherry brandy/liqueur at some point). You can buy small bottles of a lot of these items at decent liquor stores. It is worth the marginally higher per-unit cost if you aren't sure you will use a ton of it (Cointreau, vermouths, absinthe, etc.). And you will need a tin for shaking unless you already have a form of cocktail shaker. Just buy a cheap tin and combine it with a pint glass and you are all set. Cheers!

So you can listen to your stereo records and then listen to your mono records, or listen to your records with one cartridge and then another, and so on. Smartass.

Mmm, dinner cake!

Now you've gone and made me mad!

Good luck with the show, JP! Now I'm more sad that I'm not there...

:jbl: Yay for SFWTC! :jbl: Will BBQ Mike's have those neat hot food box styrofoam boxes so that I can open up my dry rubbed brisket and just eat it right away?

Awesome knob is awesome. Sincerely, Mike

Who the hell is Mike?

Santa is a Furry!

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say no.

Reks actually responded to Marc's "um, ebony?" comment, and I am guessing that he knows grenadilla = blackwood. Now preparing for clarinet geek fight!

That is a high-quality first post, there, jgoodbye.

Happy birthday Penger! Cheers

All hail Queen Vicki on the golden jubilee of her birth! Happy 50th Vicki!

It would have been a nice 50th birthday present to yourself!

Nels Cline -- Dirty Baby

Sad that I am not there.

Banana records in SoFla claim to have far more vinyl than the Amoebas combined. Not quite as accessible on their crazy storage shelving, but fucking impressive quantities and selection if you can take the search. Claire was talking about making a run this week. Lots of new stuff, but I always find old stuff at the same time. Amoeba is an expensive habit for me.

Wow, that's pretty wild. Lots of time on their hands, apparently.

Ian! Post more in this thread, dammit! We need you in the mix, and just post the band and album with no pics if that makes it easier. Now: Sufjan Stevens -- The Age of Adz

Working late with Rhapsody: Me too. Antony and the Johnsons -- Swanlights Reks needs to hear the duet with Bjork which is great stuff. New today (here)!

Don't I know it! "On FedEx vehicle for delivery" are 5 very cool words.

I cannot imagine them re-working the 4070 but who would have thought they would do a new Omega-esque can.
