| Who are your favorite A'gon posters? Saison Dupont? Yeasty and bready. Session beer for farm workers because the water wasn’t clean. Same reason they added hops on the India tea runs. | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Sinéad O'Connor – I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got (Ensign 1990)Bought this when it came out and drove all night with a woman singing our hearts out. They were the days. Not a great recording. | |
| Diagnosing and fixing transformer hum @oldhvymec might be on to something. If you have a variac, try a test adjusting the voltage from 100Vac to line and see if that changes it. You have a 300B tube amp. Try a different rectifier in case there is a load issue causing a problem. Bad ca... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Timbuk 3 – Greetings From Timbuk 3 (I.R.S. 1986)Great album. Turn up 'Life is Hard' and test the speed of your rig. If you see this in good condition going cheap, buy it. |
