I am an amature musician and love all music (except Death Metal).
My family loves animals and we have dogs (Labs), cats, and horses.
I love sharing music and music technology.

Would also like to share that a good friend and owner of a local Hi Fi store came by the other day to "tune" my system. Jim Lee of Nuts About Hi Fi you have a golden ear. The system has never sounded better.

Bustin' out an old fave...this one had a big impact on me...especially since it came out at the same time as some other different genre records (i.e. alternative/punk) were having a big impact on me...I think it helped to round out my music influence...
Picked up two boxes of LPs from a buddy in exchange for a nice bottle of wine. I have no idea what LPs are in them but it should be fun finding out tonight!
Haven't been around in a bit...usual excuses. Anyway, just replaced the tubes in my Janus Signature...first time i've replaced tubes in a Preamp myself...kind of scary but all is well. Sounds great...actually better. Used the opportunity to tune the turntable as well. Ahhh...spring cleaning. Decided that next upgrade is room treatments which is ridiculously obvious for my room. I'll share my experience if you care. Anyway sorry for the long note...it's been a while.
Hi there my friends...been out for a bit...listening to Queen - A Night at the Opera...on vinyl...a little disappointed because I think my right channel speaker mid driver is blown...some distortion there...oh well...I won't let it ruin my night...I am looking forward to some good music tonight!
In a resonated rock n roll mood...starting off with some Chicago Transit Authority and have some War with Eric Burdon on deck...shoud get me started tonight!
A little scattered tonight...started off with Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation...then John Denver - An Evening With John Denver...and now Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass - Whipped Cream & Other Delights...rediscovering my collection since the addition of a new toy (Clearaudio Outer Limit).
OK...so now I'm getting into it...this is what I have lined up...I'm halfway through Billy Bragg...
The Doves - Some Cities
Dinosaur Jr - Green Mind
Billy Bragg - William Bloke
Guided By Voices - Isolation Drills
Neutral Milk Hotel - In The Aeroplane Over The Sea
The Besnard Lakes - The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night
