Um, what exactly are you suggesting we need new shelves for? Just curious :)
Sorry, I just couldn't resist... BTW the clips I've heard from your CD

Just saw on Billboard's site that not only does OFB have their new release
on the 29th but ARK -Burn the Sun will also be released. This presents a
problem-- I've heard lots of stuff about ARK, bought the first one, STILL
don't like it (sorry Graham :>. Is this second one much better? I like
Tore Ostby (RIP Conception) but this first ARK is just something I can't
deal with.
Also I just bought the DVD of Scenes, I know I'm late but just got a DVD
player. Is there anything on it I should pay special attention to?
Hoping they come to SLC,
Wilmo

Make sure you take enough time in the setup section. The Setup section is
very important, because your TV/monitor should be calibrated accurately.
Make SURE you spend at LEAST a minute on the color bars--in order to
adjust everything properly.
And yes, that was most certainly a hint. ;)

Hello all. Just noticed something disturbing. Only ONE canadian tour
date planned for OFB! What the hell? Goddamn promoters here in Canada
piss me off. So much publicity could be won by just giving them the
required greenbacks to come here and play their asses off! Any other
canucks feel the same20

I have a Sony 10-disc changer from about 6 years ago. It cost
around $300 then but would be less now. I've never had it skip. I think
that many CD players now come with buffer memory to prevent skipping --
I'd recommend getting that. It broadcasts the CD on an FM band so you
would choose the frequency (eg. 88.5) and then tune your radio to it.
It sounds good, though not quite what you could get out of a CD player
directly connected to your stereo system (depending on how good your
system is). I've been very happy with it. You wouldn't even necessarily
have to get a new in-dash radio. I kept the factory-installed radio
in my car. They had to run a wire up to the dash and attach a small
control pad on the dash to provide the play/stop/etc buttons. A lot of
the changers today come with wireless remotes in addition to the wired
control pad that attaches to your dash.
The only disadvantage of the 10-disc changer in the trunk is that
it's not quite as easy to change CDs. So, if you want to change to a
CD that's not in the 10-disc changer already you have to stop the car,
open the trunk, take out the cartridge, and change disks (and have the
jewel case for the old one on hand). But really that's not so bad and you
don't have the CDs scattered around your back seat. I ended up buying
one of those 10-disc CD holders that holds 10 CD jewel cases. That way
I can keep the CD jewel cases in my car more easily if I want to look
at the liners (or just to remember what is actually in the CD-changer).
The changer I have doesn't take up much trunk space, fitting
nicely into one corner. The only complaint I have is that the little
door that protects the CD cartridge is rather flimsy.
I'd recommend the 10- or 12-disc changers rather than the 6-
disc changer since I've found that you can go through 10 CDs pretty
quickly, especially when driving to work every day.
Looking at Crutchfield.com, it appears that the prices range
from about $199 to $240 (plus installing + shipping) for the FM
broadcasting ones. The ones for which you'd have to buy a new in-dash
radio can be slightly less expensive not counting the cost of the new
radio. A few of the newer drives even support the CD-RW format if you
use that a lot (most if not all already support the CD-R format for
standard home-burned audio discs). Mine works fine with CD-Rs.
As others have said, keep an eye out for a local shop with a
good price that will give free installation if you buy it there.

$75 (this includes all of ticketbastard's fees and such) is the top ticket
price for the NYC shows.
What are the prices like at the other venues?

NYC shows.)

Message-ID: <IPEFJNDOEGIINJHEGHEEGEHBCFAA.elisa_c@mit.edu>
Hey guys!
I am happy to say that the opportunity to see DT in concert is coming my
way. I used to live in the little island of Puerto Rico, where no good shows
come to. SO that I am moved to the continental USA, the time has come!
Indeed... on March 22nd in Boston, I will for the first time see the band in
concert. I am SO psyched. But of course my seeing the band relies on getting
tickets. Is this an event that would quickly sell out in Boston? I am just
wondering how aggressive I need to be about getting tickets? Is it one of
those concert that will sell out moments after tickets go on sale?

It's what the market will bear. We're stupid enough to buy
Britney's newest reiterations at places with jacked-up prices,
so they'll freely take us for whatever we'll shell out.
But of course, you already knew the sad truth...
>(Actually, I went through the various CDNOW Coupons, I wonder how much

Nothing.
I buy from an independent store in my home town.
He makes a small profit over HIS OWN list (wholesale?),
and I spend about $14/disc... cheaper if I preorder.

Same here. I can't wait for the next two installments.
Apparantly the last one will be up against another
classic brought to film (and, sadly, is going to crush
it lifeless). Someone finally decided that they needed
to remake my favorite animated film, The Last Unicorn.

This is very true. But I mean, how many options do I
have? Having only the radio to resort to in my car is
pretty heartbreaking. :) And I would love to listen
to CDs. That's the problem with car gizmos.

Thanks, JM! I'll certainly do that. Sorry to hear
about your skipping 6-disc changer. My friend (from
whom I originally got this idea) has a changer that
I've never heard skip.. but I'm not sure how many CDs
it accomodates. I'll have to ask.

Well, I must say that car CD players with the sliding mechanism would only
damage your CDs if you forced them. I have a friend whose ex-girlfriend
used to grab CDs before they were finished being ejected, and that
scratched the hell out of them. But if you're careful, they won't do a
thing.
