  1. There's a Fripp solo outing from the World Financial Centre, 11/30/00... That's a Soundscape done with a synthesizer. I'm into the Frippertronics from the '70s-'80s with a fuzz pedal and analog tape. I think I was at that show. Let's see how long I can resist buying it.
  2. If I see Giuseppi Logan walking down the street, I'm crossing over to walk on the other side.
  3. A great box!
  4. It's clear he should stay away from trains.
  5. What do you mean 'security reasons'? One of the new feature seems to prevent from posting two or more new posts in a row.
  6. The forum is pretty much a chat already. What's the point?
  7. I wish they offered something that I really wanted like the Frippertronics archives.
  8. The episode ended with four flippered pals relatives giving him quite a buzz. Yes, the kid is a bit thick. Busty scientist.

  10. A likely story...
  11. Busty scientist discovers new species. Goverment tries to cover up. Boy hatches one and tries to keep it as a pet. Boy lets pet go. People start dying. Busty scientist gets trapped at the bottom of the ocean.
  12. Nah...I want to hear Allen whine about Clem some more.
  13. So...like man...he glows in the dark?
  14. Anyone else watching this? I haven't seen every episode, but I've been roped in. Crazy.
  15. Hm...maybe a little. Snow in November? We did have a snow storm in early December a few years ago.
  16. I must respectfully and quite modestly nominate my own Edie Adams. Certainly one of the most stylish avatars! (I had to upgrade from Jughead.) ← Good move. I like her glasses.

    Hey, good reminder about Fullman - I've been meaning to check out her music since I've read that article about her in STN. Will order some of her CDs. ← I like Ellen Fullmans Long String Instrument. That's some cool shit.

  19. POWER CHORD LEGEND WRAY DIES 21.11.2005. 11:28:40 Guitar player Link Wray, who invented the power chord, the major modus operandi of modern rock guitarists, has died aged 76. A native of Dunn, North Carolina, Wray's style is considered the blueprint for heavy metal and punk music. Wray's is best known for his 1958 instrumental Rumble, 1959's Rawhide and 1963's Jack the Ripper. His music has appeared in movies such as Pulp Fiction, Independence Day and Desperado. His style is said to have inspired many other rock musicians, including Pete Townsend of the Who, but also David Bowie, Bob Dylan, Steve Van Zandt and Bruce Springsteen have been quoted as saying that Wray and Rumble inspired them to become musicians. "He is the king; if it hadn't been for Link Wray and Rumble, I would have never picked up a guitar'," Townsend wrote on one of Wray's albums. Neil Young once said: "If I could go back in time and see any band, it would be Link Wray and the Raymen." According to Wray's official website, he invented the fuzz tone by deliberately punching holes in his amplifier speakers. In 2002, the Guitar World magazine elected Wray one of the 100 greatest guitarists of all time. Wray, known for his trademark black leather jacket, toured the United States and Canada from 1997 to 2002. He was half Shawnee Indian. The date of Wray's death was not known. He lived in Copenhagen. Denmark's Politiken newspaper said his funeral had already taken place in Copenhagen's Christian Church. No dates were given. His family could not be reached for comments. His official site does not mention his death. Wray is survived by his wife and son. SOURCE: World News
