music these days....
Actually/unfortunately the 70's brought us Whitesnake. I don't really think the argument is that one does or doesn't like a particular style of music or group, etc. but that there has been no good music in general produced in the last 25 years. Th...

You stated that "Nothing good has happened in music since 1979." I think that in itself is an admission that you are the one who isn't "into music". It's the same old "they don't make good music anymore" story that just doesn't hold water.

Devendra Banhart - Anybody listening ?

Arcade Fire; what song did they do on SNL
One of the better performances on SNL as of late. Can't wait for their new album as well as the new Phosphorescent album. 
The Musicians Behind The Motown Sound
Just another recommendation for Standing In The Shadows Of Motown. You can find it in the $5.50 dump bin at many Wal-Marts. 
Looking for turntable for under $1000
I'd just suggest you throw a Dynavector 10x5 cart on that P3 instead of a Rega cart.

Would treated CD's or OOP's-hold its value later?
Actually circumcision can be reversed...kinda. You guys never seen that episode of Penn & Teller's BS I take it? There's apparently an entire movement of people angry with their parents for making such a decision without their consent so they'...
