| Whats on your turntable tonight? The MFSL One-Step Blood On The Tracks has been sitting unopened in my on deck bin for a while. I promised my girlfriend I'd wait for her to come over to play it. Unfortunately, with covid-19 and other things going on we haven't had that opportunity. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @slaw if I had more room the orb might be more attractive. I was a little skeptical about the Periphery Outer Ring Clamp, especially given its price (I bought mine second hand), but so far it has turned out to be a worthwhile purchase. It only tak... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Ramones - Leave Home | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Took a little break from Joe Bonamassa to work out, listening to the Pandora Techno channel. They put together the best mix (for me) of any of the music services I have. It's mostly high energy tunes which are great for my time on the elliptical... | |
