If you own CDs you are already doing digital music.

Not much right now, about 400gb mostly Apple Lossless. I have alot more on DVD-Rs but I don't currently have access to them, still in Austin in storage. 1581 albums 15648 songs 59.6 days

Completely. The first example in this thread was "Re-Animator" which was also campy on purpose so it doesn't really count either.

Not yet, I work weekends.

Cool, I saw the previews for that show a couple months ago and it looked like a good one.

Amy also showed up a couple weeks ago on Warehouse 13.

It's nice to see both Deep Purple and Rush finally nominated, though both bands should have been in there a long time ago. No way they will both get inducted the same year knowing how the hall usually operates.

Last time I checked, the mind controls the fingers.

I feel bad, I really wish I could help but I'm moving to another apartment this month and there is no disposable income at the moment.

Did you get the 40th anniversary edition with Wilson's remix? The album sounds better now than it ever did.

Johnny Griffin...and quick-witted too!

Very nice article, thanks for sharing. The new concert film "Get All You Deserve" is a stunner, what a great band he's assembled! All of the Grace For Drowning material comes off much better in the live setting, it adds some extra punch and passion, while the record itself sounded kinda clinical.

Jim Morrison. That's the opening of "The Soft Parade", right?

The song "Tanya" from One Flight Up was what made me a Dexter fan in the first place.

Who is "us" in this sentence? Aren't all musicians "us" at some point before they become "them"? I have no problem with every other person in the world recording a demo and putting it online, it's freedom of expression, more power to them! I don't have to listen to most of it anyway, so it's not exactly hurting me or the world just because it's there. If some dude in a garage in Iowa decides his life has no purpose unless he records some songs...let him! if nobody ever listens to it that's really not the point.

Patty deserves to be miserable. The show was really like a slow descent into hell, the actors pulled that off beautifully. Close would have eaten many potential co-stars alive, I give credit to Byrne for standing toe to toe with her for the entire run. Class acts, both of them.

Finished up the final season (5) of Damages. They tied things up neatly, though not quite as excitingly as I had hoped for. I'll miss the show, even though the last couple seasons weren't quite up to the level of the first 3, it was still a very enjoyable experience. Glenn Close vs. Rose Byrne has been a great pairing.

Black Sabbath Vol. 4 was released on September 25, 1972. Geezer Butler calls this album "Snow Blind in L.A." Vol. 4 was the first Black Sabbath album to be recorded outside the UK. The band rented a posh house in Bel Air for rehearsals and the parties are the stuff of legend. Vol. 4 was most definitely a cocaine album, as evidenced by the band giving a thank you credit to their dealer in the liner notes "Thanks to the great COKE cola company of Los Angeles" and by this classic song... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHal84S_XkI Vol. 4 was a transitional album, bridging the gap between the more straight-ahead thunder of Master Of Reality and the more Prog Rock direction they would take on Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Sabotage. Tony Iommi was handling all the arrangements by this point and also supervising the recording sessions, his growing maturity as an artist is evident on this album. Iommi was also the most sober by this point, so he had to take control as Ozzy, Geezer and Bill were starting to spiral out of control. Despite the massive drug use the album is chock-full of classic songs... The Iommi arranged epic "Wheels Of Confusion/The Straightener", first single "Tomorrow's Dream", the futuristic "Supernaut" with the awesome acoustic guitar/percussion breakdown in the mid-section, the aforementioned head bobbing classic "Snowblind" and Iommi's memorable acoustic number "Laguna Sunrise", book ended by one of his most evil sounding doom riffs in "Under The Sun". There is also the widely debated ballad "Changes" which seems to be either loved or despised depending on who is listening. Cornucopia and St. Vitus' Dance are still influencing stoner bands to this day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5x8LbhQlOYc An absolute classic album.

I did the same thing a few years ago. I pay for internet and Netflix, costs around $40 a month. I also watch free stuff on Hulu and various websites run by the networks. There are quite a few over-the-air HD channels in Los Angeles, so there is always something to watch from those various sources. I honestly don't miss cable/satellite at all.

Awesome! I've grown to really like that show, felt that the first season took a little too long to get into a groove, but it's settled in quite nicely now.

One of my acquaintances took this photo in Los Angeles, quite striking I thought.
