The best opening act you've ever seen & heard? A couple: In July 1978 went to a Day on the Green in Oakland, CA. Playing were Aerosmith, Foreigner, Pat Travers and Van Halen. Opening was a relatively unknow "punk-ish" rock band, AC/DC. They came out and literally/utterly destroyed th... | |
Things we cannot be bothered by anymore @thecarpathian - Yes, my comments about "long hair, all sounds the same, can't even play their instruments," etc reflect what I heard as a kid in the early 70's and well beyond, from parents and other "old folks & friends" protesting that wh... | |
Things we cannot be bothered by anymore Maybe I misinterpreted your comment: "I know, right? Silly old people for liking their music created by actual musicians..." This seemed to be an insinuation that the half time performer was "not a musician." If my interpretation was accurate, ... | |
Things we cannot be bothered by anymore @thecarpathian , Yes, definitely silly (among other things), for not considering them "actual musicians." Typical old people...."cannot understand the words.....their hair is too long.....they need a bath.....it's too loud....they can't even pla... | |
Things we cannot be bothered by anymore In light of the SB half-time show.... Cannot be bothered with the never ending cycle of old people saying to young people "that's not even real music / I can't understand any of the words!!" Sheeeeesh.... | |
Does anyone listen to the radio anymore? At times, KBACH 89.5 classical music in the greater PHX area. Listen through my Sansui 8080 or Kenwood KR7400 depending where I am in the house. | |
MissingCDs and records …for many of us older folks, when we were kids, it was the records and the photos that came with them was the only way to see the band… There were no videos, and unless you caught them on tour, the physical media provided a ton of information and ... | |
Merry go round Some of the best times I have ever had listening to music was in a car… Driving on a freeway… enjoying the scenery, music cranked and highly distorted… It was awesome! | |

DACs in the Peachtree Nova 150 vs WiiM Ultra @gkelly thanks! | |
DACs in the Peachtree Nova 150 vs WiiM Ultra FYI.....looking for input as I have the Ultra in "active use" and the Peachtree is not set up. If the consensus is that the WiiM would be better, will be in no rush, at least for now, to set up the Peachtree.... | |
The HARD ROCK & HEAVY METAL Thread Continued @larsman Hey! I lived as a kid in Sunnyvale and went to college at Sonoma State. Got into the scene in high school, about '77. Out of 2,000 kids, there were 3 of us into punk. LOL. My band is Tower of Swine. Played a ton up in Sonoma County ... | |
The HARD ROCK & HEAVY METAL Thread Continued @oberoniaomnia saw Flipper many times "back in the day." They were regulars at a lot of the Mabuhay Gardens shows. Was never a big fan but respected their originality, etc. Remember seeing them and Bruce Loose got hit in the face with a full ca... | |
