I picked up some (3) KEF speakers and denon amp (all used) in the spring for about $400 and am quite pleased with it, for the most part. I've been recently running into some serious squelching and popping and clicking on some of the preset channel features on the amp, but I'm sure it's just because it's old and some parts of it are on its way out. That piece of the puzzle was $130 so I'm not going to be too upset if it kicks the bucket soon. I'd recommend getting some speaker stands too - talk to Tungsten, I know his company was blowing them out. Well worth getting them up off the floor.

We're in

That's a GREAT price for that line up!

DINOSAUR JR DAUGHTER HEARTLESS BASTARDS DJ are killing it live these days. The new album is as good as anything they put out in the 90s and their grey appearances haven't diminished their sound in the slightest. You really should see them. Daughter is a slower, folky act, but the lead singer has a gorgeous, powerful voice. Heartless Bastards are just fantastic 3 and 4 chord rock, with a female singer/guitarist that delivers awesomeness from opening note to closing crescendo. Do not miss these cats. If you can only see one of the three I mentioned, see Heartless Bastards.

Carpet crawlers FTW

Maybe it's time to check out some Dick's.

1 1/2 cups soy sauce or Gluten-free Tamari Soy Sauce 3/4 cup white sugar 1/4 cup sesame oil 5 cloves of garlic, minced 1/2 of a medium yellow onion, chopped 3 large green onions, cut into small pieces 2 tbl toasted sesame seeds 1/2 tsp of red pepper flakes Marinated for 24 hours. Soaked them for 2-3 hours before the marinate in cold water to get out most of the blood/bone fragments

I can see someone else like the Hip being added to try and beef up the line up, given that Gord is good friends with Dan. No blade and no neil? This is looking less and less attractive. I'm not sure Neil would play solo - just guessing that contractually it's crazy horse or nothing.

Happened with me before too, but they let me know which track specifically was the offending one and I just switched it out.

They turned out incredibly well. Cooked them on two EZ grills over low heat for about 10-15 mins. They were the Belle of the ball that afternoon.

Glad you like it! The whole Jim Guthrie album is killer, but that track specifically is just awesome.

Happy day, duder!

Just take it and shuddddayap.

Great interview!

Making some Korean short ribs for a BBQ on Thursday. Had pretty good success in the past with this dish, but thought I'd see if you folks have any secrets up your sleeve I should know about... proceed.

TM is utter bullshit.

So the new guy at GelaSkins is from Lille, FR and his lady worked in Paris for many years. He's going to get some recos from her. I'll get back to ya... Re: barca - What about Nathan? He lived there for a bunch of years...

That's sad to hear. Sorry for your loss, Jay.

Reminds me of Jaybone's mom, Bunny.

Jesus - that's some crazy ass pass.

Not my bag this year, but maybe it's because I don't know more than 10-12 bands on that list

Watermelon is awesome. Love this flavour!
