    WTF?? That is way too much censoring.

    Niyaz - Persian Mysticism - Live

    A little bird dropped this off to me,.... It is an amazing experience; Sufi Mysticism meets electronica. They are acoustic instruments that are mixed live, on-stage, by the keyboardist, who creates a magic carpet ride soundscape. The bass passages in this are immense and extremely low. it was...

    Poway Symphony Orchestra 2023-11-19 20th Ann'y Season Opener

    Last night, they made me smile! I guess its official?! I never claimed it. But I guess they like my work? At any rate,.... my new hang tag. It even got me backstage into the fancy bathroom. Working on the recording. It was just done last night. I've got a 4.mic mix ready to present, of mics...

    Capping Rounds Off in the Hood - A Close Call

    Well, I never figured I'd be posting such a thing in my life. We don't live in the city, or anything even closely related to city life. We live in an agricultural area, and state/nat'l park open areas, with plenty of room between neighbors. But, damn, I just heard what my neighbor describes as a...

    Little League World Series 2023

    I can't stand what Wokeness has done to the MLB. So, they've been left in the dirt for years now; boycotted. But, I do love the game. Instead, I watch the College Softball series, and Little League series for its pureness in baseball. So far, its been fun to watch. But, I gotta say,.... One of...

    Hurricane Hilary - SoCal Takes a Rare Hit

    I spent the day readying for this, and am exhausted. I'm looking forward to it, and seeing what it brings. It probably won't be a true hurricane by the time it gets here, rather it is said to be a tropical storm; but, it is still a historic storm for the area. We are in northern San Diego...

    Septic in Cold Country - and Basements

    I thought I'd start a nice sloppy topic. Sarge and I are being driven from Cal, due to, well, liberalism, and blue state'itus ( this is as far as I take politics), and exceedingly high utility rates (San Diego Gas and Electric). We are looking at Utah, as a possible change of venue, due to the...

    An Amazing Thing Happened To Me Thursday Morning.

    I'm going to start where it began on Wednesday morning, the 25th January. It is far bigger than the fishing adventure that it starts out as. I hope it captures your attention. Ultimately it ends in an amazing act of kindness, and deep help in a very bad situation. The tale begins,.... Its...

    Remember When A Half Gallon Was Just That?

    It seems like very little product gets weighed out to the gallon standard anymore. Example: Blue Bunny Ice Cream I bought some BB ice cream last week, and, when opened, the container was only perhaps 3/4 full. It states a quart and a half, or, 48 fluid ounces. The partially filled container...

    Greets, again,... Up for grabs,... A Spanish Festival Concert by the Poway Symphony Orchestra from this past weekend. I've been exceedingly busy building stuff here, and too tired for much music. And, the cost of fuel, keeps me a wee bit closer to home. But, this one was a not to be missed...

    I Feel A Big One Coming On!

    I might as well start a thread. This one is going to be somewhat off-the-seat-of-my-pants, winging it! Its going to be fairly large'ish scale, for an amateur DIY'r. A carport for two smaller cars. It will be a bit smaller than a standard garage, due to the space that I have. This one will be...

    Grateful Dead - Santana - Lindley 1987-August-22/23 Mtn. Aire Music Fest

    I'm going to start with Day One; But, of course. And, I'm going to disclaim around a wee bit before I get into the meat of this thing. And, there is a lot of meat on this bone. I was a Grateful Dead fan, and, a taper, or, live concert recordist. This dates back to Oct.1982 to my first...

    Electrical Diagnosis Help Needed

    Fack! So, we had sideways rain, and strong winds a week ago. In the height of it, our power panel got soaked, and, a circuit to my garage outlets blew; read: this is my music room, a converted garage. It is wall sockets only, and, they are on a dedicated circuit that is original to the home. San...
