I have played it over and over and to me it shows how much Jerry WAS the Dead back then. I wonder if the other guys learned anything from Jerry's solo shows? The Phil shows are also excellent. Great stuff for my collection. I'll let you know on the new DPs. Thanks Gary. ---------------- If I'm not mistaken, one of those DP's are the 5/19/77 show... one of the most sonically great nights of 1977 (if not THE most sonically great). It was the night after I saw them for the first time, 5/18/77 (also a killer show). Both were at the fabulous Fox Theater in Atlanta, GA. ah.. times past. I'd really like to hear your thoughts on that show. Forrest

Wow. since joining this forum in June, 2003, I've gained 2 1979 Heresys 2 1976 Cornwalls 2 1983 Cornwalls and tubes Scott 355/208 combo I'm giving the wallet a rest for a while. It's looking kinda thin. This place is dangerous for a budget! peace y'all and Happy New Year! Forrest

two actually 88.9, the local NPR affiliate.. excellent programming from Bach to Zappa. The other is 93.3 because there's a DJ behind every selection... and Sunday/Monday they host a local music show... and Monday night Greg Martin (of the Kentucky Headhunters) hosts a killer blues show. Death to ClearChannel! forrest

I've heard Santa has it on the bench, but it wasn't quite ready for the wild ride just yet. Forrest

E. B. White's Christmas -1952 From this high midtown hall, undecked with boughs, unfortified with mistletoe, we send forth our tinselled greetings as of old, to friends, to readers, to strangers of many conditions in many places. Merry Christmas to uncertified accountants, to tellers who have made a mistake in addition, to girls who have made a mistake in judgment, to grounded airline passengers, and to all those who can't eat clams! We greet with particular warmth people who wake and smell smoke. To captains of river boats on snowy mornings we send an answering toot at this holiday time. Merry Christmas to intellectuals and other despised minorities! Merry Christmas to the musicians of Muzak and men whose shoes don't fit! Greetings of the season to unemployed actors and the blacklisted everywhere who suffer for sins uncommitted; a holly thorn in the thumb of compilers of lists! Greetings to wives who can't find their glasses and to poets who can't find their rhymes! Merry Christmas to the unloved, the misunderstood, the overweight. Joy to the authors of books whose titles begin with the word "How" (as though they knew!). Greetings to people with a ringing in their ears; greetings to growers of gourds, to shearers of sheep, and to makers of change in the lonely underground booths! Merry Christmas to old men asleep in libraries! Merry Christmas to people who can't stay in the same room with a cat! We greet, too, the boarders in boarding hoses on 25 December, the duennas in Central Park in fair weather and foul, and young lovers who got nothing in the mail. Merry Christmas to people who plant trees in city streets; merry Christmas to people who save prairie chickens from extinction! Greetings of a purely mechanical sort to machines that think--plus a sprig of artificial holly. Joyous Yule to Cadillac owners whose conduct is unworthy of their car! Merry Christmas to the defeated, the forgotten, the inept; joy to all dandiprats and bunglers! We send, most particularly and most hopefully, our greetings and our prayers to soldiers and guardsmen on land and sea and in the air--the young men doing the hardest things at the hardest time of life. To all such, Merry Christmas, blessings, and good luck! We greet the Secretaries-designate, the President-elect; Merry Christmas to our new leaders, peace on earth, good will, and good management! Merry Christmas to couples unhappy in doorways! Merry Christmas to all who think they are in love but aren't sure! Greetings to people waiting for trains that will take them in the wrong direction, to people doing up a bundle and the string is too short, to children with sleds and no snow! We greet ministers who can't think of a moral, gagmen who can't think of a joke. Greetings, too, to the inhabitants of other planets; see you soon! And last, we greet all skaters on small natural ponds at the edge of woods toward the end of afternoon. Merry Christmas, skaters! Ring, steel! Grow red, sky! Die down, wind! Merry Christmas to all and to all a good morrow! E.B. White, 12/20/52

Holy Jeebus... nearly 1300 with minutes left to go. I don't understand. Forrest

p.s. Happy Birthday!

Woo-hoo Not that anybody really cares; just thought I'd spout off at the mouth and say how pleased I am to be part of this great Klipsch family. I've learned an awful lot here these past 365 days, and can appreciate the love and affection we all have for Klipsch products, from the oldest to the newest horn speakers! And you guys have enlightened me about the fine art of valves, hence I'm an up and coming bottlehead now! I don't think I would've had the cojones to step up to the vacuum tube plate if it wasn't for all of your vast knowledge and years of experience in tube technology, and how you all encourage me to move on to the "dark side" and experience the finest in aural pleasures...my Cornwalls thank you too! So my hats off to each and every one of you for making my first year on the Klipsch Forums and exciting and fulfilling experience...this Bud's for you ---------------- Happy Anniversary to you indeed! Thanks for the excellent recommendations from www.dorian.com I got their Cesar Franck disc by Jean Guillou and it is superb! I know this has been a topsy turvy year for you and am really glad that you made it out in a good way. from one pipe organ afficianado to another, cheers, Forrest

There is nothing new to be gained there, and usually by 350 views it has gotten ugly. Anything over 500 and it is approaching gasket blowing proportions. I do enjoy the Horns Bar, and will have a glass of Strega, please. And how about some wintry music, perhaps Rachmaninov's Opus 32 #6, G# minor? ciao, Woo
