thebes Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Root Boy Slim and the Sex change Band Root! Root! Root!, Big fan, he's gone now though. Really tore up the DC music scene for years. Ok how about: Climax Blues Band Cheap Trick Schon and Hammer Head East Bus Boys Sheer Greed an don't forget... The Tubes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
100dB Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 I just saw Cheap Trick last thursday in San Diego. They played at an audiology convention (Oticon Hearing Instruments block party)... Would that be "Cheap Trick Live At Oticon"? They still rock, yet we had a lot of ear plugs in use. More bands: G-Spot Tornado; The Infidels.

oldtimer Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Thebes, tribute band names for the Tubes might include The Tied Tubes and The Snipped Tubes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Tribute Bands: Back in Black: AC/DC Neo Jung: Neil Young There are lots more, so lets see them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebes Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 If I'm really lucky, and indeed I am, I shall never, ever, have to see a tribute band. Tribute bans=suck some more dollars out of you one more time. Db100: Audiology convention? Cymbals and tippany might clear that place out lickety split. So do you know any good tinnitus jokes?[] I like bands with a buzz. How about: Queen Bee and the Blue Hornet Band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100dB Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 Yeah, I'm an audiologist, as well as a recording engineer. I have Heresys, Maggies, and Paradigm Reference all living under the same roof - it's like the United Nations. Tubes, SS... all here. I love my vinyl, and my iPod, equally. Simple care regarding the signal path should leave you happy, regardless. Do what you love. I don't have any tinnitus jokes, though I do have horror stories. Frankly, we should all be extremely grateful for what we have. I met a deaf woman this weekend who uses a cochlear implant. Up until recently, she never knew that rain, or a river, actually made a sound. She still says that while the world is now audible, it isn't necessarily beautiful (auditorily), and her fiancé is a world class sound recordist, Gordon Hempton. I count my blessings. ~Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fini Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Good post, nonetheless. I considered Audiologist as a second career after it showed up as a job I was suited for in one of those "what you'd be good at" tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I act serious individuals get concerned and before you know it, there's flashing lights out side my door. Sometimes it's an ambulance and sometimes... Trust me when I say this, a forum chock full of audiophiles takes hearing loss very seriously. Personally I have a sister-in-law going deaf, my ex is on the way, and I have some degradation in my right ear I presume from all that screeching from conservatives over the years. Yet, one of our finest members and most astute and discerning listeners on this forum is getting by with basically one good ear. But enough of this, I'm wandering afield. Pretty soon I'll be starting up a speaker wire thread. So as an audiologist and a recording engineer have you had the opportunity to work on any of these fine audiology songs? http://www.eartunes.com/ur/audiology-songs-all.shtmlWhile I await your reply I'm off to listen to: Cherry Poppin Daddies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
