  1. It's actually not bad either, since some are double cds , from my experience stuff out of the hit parade in Europe and UK is rather expensive, was expecting something like 15 to 20 pounds so for me the prices were a pleasant suprise , what will make the deal breaker is the quote for shipping.
  2. Is my brain going insane or are they selling this stuff at what equals 15 Canadian bucks
  3. I pity the hockey fans who will now have to go back to the crappy product offered by the NHL.
  4. Dick Vitale Jim Valvano Al McGuire
  5. Went out to see a movie this afternoon, managed to remain spoiler free about the result of the hockey game, planning to watch it tonight. A guy from an environmental group at the door while giving his sale speech actually asks me if the overtime is over thus ruining the game or at least the regular time Think, I'll go buy a fuckin' Hummer tomorrow.
  6. Blame Canada !
  7. Looking at past results , suprising results when the image is not available
  8. What the fuck did they do to Dee Dee ?
  9. Critics here saw it like you did, weren't that impressed by Clapton either.
  10. Well for starters the French and the old USSR one, , it is a question of taste but I also always get a kick listening to the Italian anthem which has little of the pump that these musical pieces usually have. The Canadian team has been on the schizophrenic side, so it's been pretty tough to know which team that will show up even in the same game, the dominant and motivated team of the first period or the "fat cat" one of the third. Agreed about the goaltender evaluation but no so sure it will make the difference. Collective play will do, the team that beat the Russia looked invicible, will this team show up ?
  11. Slovakian team was that close to send the game into overtime.
  12. Gerry Cheevers Phil Esposito Bobby Orr
  13. Short track speed skating is the kind of sport that makes the Olympics look idiotic. It is basically roller-derby on ice.
  14. Won't win any originality contest with this one, still another gem though.
  15. Was not error free but she did it, a bronze that is worth gold considering what happened to her.
  16. Care usually little about figure skating but the performance by the Korean girl was impressive even to someone who does not follow the sport, let's hope Joannie skates an error free program.
  17. Adrian Vedady quartet with guest Marc Copland
  18. French teams are on a roll, gotta say it was about time the game ended though.
  19. I can only imagine what the atmosphere is like 'Up North' today. Black armbands out ! Can't talk for others, well for starters it's really not a surprise in terms of developpement US universities are as good as the junior system we have here. So it's just a question of numbers before they overpass them in terms of depth. Considering how much I hate the hysteria regarding hockey and how we are supposed to own this game, can't help but being thrilled to see them lose , would love to see them ending again without a medal. It's a bit like seeing the Squadra Azurra being eliminated in the first round of the World Cup. Feel a lot worse for our female figure skater Joannie Rochette who suddenly lost her mother something like two days before her competition. NB If I start receiving threats from crazy Canadian hockey fans for being a traitor to my nation, will some of the Yanks host me 'til it quiets down.
  20. That lot look even more loony than us MG Here's a post from this board http://stereocentral.tv/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2589&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=180 Some fucktard on Yahoo groups wrote: I just finished reading an article on line that stated each box set counts as ONE unit sold, the same as if someone bought one copy of Abbey Road. Why is that? If it's a 14 disc boxes why wouldn't it count as 14 units? I know that when Garth Brooks brought out his box set it counted as multiple units when sold. And, has anyone heard any sales figures yet on how many have sold so far? How dare the RIAA deny the Fabs a whole bunch of new gongs? Another fucktard on Yahoo groups wrote: So I came to number 12, "A Taste of Honey". It just happened that I was closer to the left speaker than to the right one at a certain moment, and I came to this conclusion: there is a disturbing background noise in certain places. I decided to make note: (the song lasts 2.01) from 0.09-0.42 a background noise comes up, again from 0.57 - 1.30 and again from 1.40 - 1.44. As I said it is only in the left speaker, and it is like an old record which collected to much dust. All the other tracks do not have this noise That'd be Ringo using brushes on the snare. This guy calls himself a fan, yet refers to Ringo's drumming as "a disturbing background noise in certain places" (could those certain places be the second and fourth beats of every bar?). Still another fucktard on Yahoo groups wrote: I sampled the Beatles box set and first off I would like to say they did a fine job with most of the remastering except for Rubber Soul. They did not use the same master that Mobile Fidelity Soundlab used in 1982. Assuming you downloaded -- erm, purchased -- the version from the stereo box, the answer is simple. That, dipshit, is because they used the digital master from George Martin's 1987 remix. Quote: I wonder what DR Ebbetts feels. He probably feels he got out of the business prematurely. There are so a bunch more stupid fuckers to be fleeced. I promise to stop, but here's just one more fucktard from Yahoo groups who wrote: Hi,I'm working my way through the Mono box set in order, and was gobsmacked to find that on 'Help! and 'Rubber Soul' have both the Mono and Stereo versions of their respective albums on the same disc! (I presume that the stereo versions are the remastered stereo versions, but maybe they're the 1987 versions; I haven't checked yet, and I also haven't played the rest of the mono albums to find out if this pattern is repeated on post 'R.S.' albums. This wasn't the case on the versions of 'P.P.M.', 'W.T.B.', 'A.H.D.N.' or 'B.F.S.'). Has anyone else had this good fortune? Which proved too much even for the moderator, who wrote: Quote: Wow....uhhh, nope. You're just lucky. (Hey, ******** group, help me out here....should I 1) accuse him of piracy because anybody who has the actual box set knows that it's clearly explained literally on the outside of the box, 2) tell him that yeah, he's lucky, he's got a collector's item and that nobody else's copy is like that, 3) it's been discussed to death, or 4) a simple search on any search engine will answer his question in seconds?)
  21. Saw Steve Smith's Vital Legacy. Definitely not the the same musical pleasure than the Jensen Orchestra. It will sound a bit harsh, buit to me the way this things worked it reminds me the bit during a rock concert when the main singer leaves the stage to take a break and let stage musicians jam a bit. Well, imagine if the singer doing so went to the bathroom and got stuck for 90 minutes insude them leaving the band by themselves for 90 minutes. Well, that's basically what we had. Not that is was completely bad, it is simply not my conception of music.
  22. For those who dig Sky Blue I strongly recommend this one. Saw them live last night
  23. Saw Christine Jensen Orchestra tonight One of the best show I saw in a while. If you're into Maria Schneider like music, do not miss them.
  24. There won't be any pictures for this one, until you give me better subjects I'm on strike
