| Heads Up: ARC is introducing the new SP-20 in Fall ARC starts with margin expectations like any company still in business. Sometimes that expectation is too high and the pipeline either doesn't get filled or clogs up. That's the danger with the high end electronic bus. you can only introduce a pro... | |
| Com'on...confess.......... Ketchup, the limited release is the one I have. It is numbered and the sound is excellent. It is my first real exposure to them, I have only heard a few songs on satellite radio on the Jam station. | |

| Norah Jones I'm a fan too! Great music and collaborations - how about the one with Keith! | |
| Com'on...confess.......... Ketchup, I will check it was a gift, I doubt it is original. I didn't know Phish had any original pressings, thought they were sort a CD/download band?I am new to them, but have some friends who love them. | |

| LOUSY SOUND AT LIVE CONCERTS As we all know most large venue shows are extravaganzas...not just music, like a broadway play on PED!...LOL!...and by the time you blow through the first 3 songs or so your ears are shot! If you have been around long enough you have dozens of sto... | |
