part 2 is up tonight i believe edit: part 1 is playing right now, i guess the new one is on tomorrow on another station. http://www.x929.ca may have it on some time between 8 and 10 tonight Mountain standard time.

"fuck, i've got a headache" for sure

yes, we have two in my house, if you really are interested you can get one for cheap that has a usb plug so you can get direct from vinyl onto your computer. http://www.amazon.com/Ion-TTUSB-Turntable-USB-Record/dp/B000BUEMOO there is the argument to be made that it sounds better, but that has already been touched on. all the vinyl i own are strictly albums i know i can listen to start to finish without skipping a track. in a world where we are wanting things more and more mobile, there is a lot to be said for taking an hour out, and just listening to an album in very high sound resolution. you can't just put it on and zone out because you have to flip the thing over every 3-4 songs, but in that way, it makes you more focused on the music. there is also a strong argument to be made for album art, which has been pushed to the wayside with the digital revolution. a clear example good use of artwork is the latest oasis box set, which included a 24 page book of artwork for the album. it gives you something nice to look at while listening to the music. some call it pretentious to buy stuff on vinyl now, but i just love the sensation from sitting down and enjoying music for the sake of enjoying music, and i would prefer to do it with the best quality. when you start listening to matt's work you can see how much he and warne put into layering, and you can really start to focus on what is going on in the songs when you sit down and listen to it. whether or not universal/matt will do it, it's something i would love to see happen, i would imagine WLRRR would be very interesting as it was intended to sound like an album made in the 1970's. it seems a lot of acts are re-issuing older stuff along with all of their new releases on vinyl, but the limited market may play a factor in the whole thing. a good read for those interested, it does touch on the loudness war... http://www.wired.com/entertainment/music/c...teningpost_1029

i don't see why it would, it's a relevant topic considering the choice to release the latest album on vinyl.

seeing as vinyl is back in fashion again, anyone think universal with put the back catalog on vinyl? avalanche routinely fetches $100+ on ebay, and vancouver's initial orders sold out within the first week, it seems like there is a demand. imagine BM and AOB on vinyl, considering matt and warne both seem to be audiophiles it would be very interesting to hear those albums.

as per his site...

going through flickr, looks like matt has the rockcaster out on tour as well...

we have pretty much everything short of vocals and drums right now. any interest in helping out with either?

FUCK YES, RICO

i guess that explains the gas attendant part of the hello time bomb video i hope we get to hear some audio of being tonight

yea i was wondering who the hell said that and everyone looked at the drummer

http://www.edge.ca/StationShared/OHNM.aspx 11:30 toronto time, so about an hour and 10 minutes.

they were trying to crack down on people taking pictures too

this will be on in LESS THAN AN HOUR i'll be at the calgary show but have fun listening folks http://www.cfox.com

that clip is awesome, i'm surprised at the quality given it's a full band

it's on tonight, if someone could record it that would be awesome

hmm, no luck in the e-mail, pm'd

need total for shipping on ebay dude

i predict i will be sending you a lot of money soon, lol

here's to hoping we get that at one of the calgary shows

anyone have a clip of the load me up/love will tear us apart???

i'd probably rather listen to jenni's song, that should give you an idea of my hatred for devil's in the details exactly

i'm not surprised at the set list, the band are still learning the new songs so they will probably have a lot of the singles and new tracks for the first few shows

from the streamed show that i posted that doesn't say much because the vocal performance was pretty rough.
