| Fate? Karma? Purgatory? Help me put a good spin on this. @whart : One of my hobbies is southern literature and criticism. I visit Faulkner's home in Oxford whenever we go.

| Fate? Karma? Purgatory? Help me put a good spin on this. @orpheus10 The dinner with the 'country' musician is different from the Juke Joint Festival which is almost entirely local blues musicians a fair number of whom are relatives of Junior Kimbrough and RL Burnside which is cool.

Help me put a good spin on this. @djones:I showed my wife the video and she thought it was a spoof on pop country......I had to explain to her that it was _actual_ pop country. @dweller : Agreed. It is generous and thoughtful of our friends to invite us and I will try to be graci... | |

| What are you streaming tonight? JD McPherson - Let the Good Times RollThis one did not hook me on the first or second listen but now it has really grabbed me. Great voice. Retro sound with a new edge to it. I think I'll buy the CD. The songs I really like are : Let the Good Time... | |

| Death of Rock 'n' Roll And didn't the Who say "I hope I die before I get old"? Two of them got their wish. | |
| Schiit Loki EQ You can only put it between the pre-amp and amp if you're using RCA cables. No balanced/XLR cable option with the Loki. | |
| Death of Rock 'n' Roll Up until the last few years I thought rock was dead. Rock is dead on FM radio. And I agree that classic rock stations helped bury it. Pop stations don't help either.Now I realize rock is still alive. You just have to go look for it. You aren't goi... | |
