please go to your favorite liquor store, and get your favorite spirits, pour a tall glass, get your lp on the table, drop the arm gently, get into your sweet seat, and enjoy your investment before anything that you cant control happens and its gone, dont sweat the small stuff, even after several glasses of my favorite red wine i still can make it back to the set before the needle hits the lp, mike
Alcohol + Vinyl = Disaster...
I aways try to stay away from 'home' so to speak, when I have consumed some alcohol.
The reason: I know I will try to play some LP's and I know I will smash the cartridge into the record. Period. (I do not trust myself when I get 'phylosophical'.)
Luckely it has not happened to me yet. I have heard some dreadful stories of vinyl lovers busting a +/-$2000 pick-up when 'intoxicated'. Shame!
I guess there is some very 'interesting' stories regarding this subject... please do share.
Kind regards,
Dewald Visser
