æNormal is just a setting on my dryer.
Thank you for the pics. Great work. Help me remember who some of those people were when I visited them. I now regret not talking to them more. But I was on a mission to see everyone in two days heh.

I enjoyed reliving (mentally) my first few albums. I bought four albums on one day from the Music Box on West Esplande Avenue in Metarie (a suburb of New Orleans), for $3.99 each. The one I was most sure of in advance was Led Zep III, so that's the one I listed. The others were A Night at the Opera by Queen; Agents of Fortune by Blue Oyster Cult; and Songs from the Wood by Jethro Tull. I still count all four of them among my most favorite albums - which I guess implies that my musical taste peaked early!
I had to keep my albums hidden from my ultra-conservative parents, and could only play them when they were gone. We lived out in the country and the dogs would bark when they returned, giving me time to whisk my albums away to their secret hiding place. They hated my music and I hated theirs (Verdi and Bizet operas). I don't think I really hated their music - that was just my backlash against what I interpreted as their disapproval of anything I liked (I wasn't very tolerant of them either, you see).
Today, things are so very different. My kids and I love the same music, and it brings us closer. We listen to Pink Floyd and Led Zep, and go to Rush concerts. Both of my sons are musicians, and I think they're great (surprise, surprise). And guess what - my kids' grandparents (my parents) think their music is great, too!
So anyway Stephaen, thanks for inspiring me to reflect and ruminate.

By the way, did you pick up any new lines at the show?
Duke
Just some comedic ones. :--)
Seriously though, met a few customers by chance, and had beverages with others. Always a treat to put the name on a face/real person. Wonderful people all.
As far as product, there are a handful of products I wouldn't mind owning and/or promoting, such as the Feastrex drivers (I'm already affiliated with Lotus Group, being their first dealer in the US) and the amazing new Emerald Physics OB. What a deal on the Emerald's at 3K....you made a great decision becoming a dealer.
I had my system warmed up when I clicked on your post
and now I'm posting a reply. I couldn't stop
I, especially, enjoyed the first album/latest album feature
Thanks
Julien

am thrilled Stephaen!!!! - the images in large form are FAB - thank you very much - Freddy
This is awesome--audio folks and their music! Isn't it interesting how many of us became hooked during the mid to late '60's?
I have always desired to attend a show but life always seems to get in the way. Your post is the single most compelling reason for me to go.
Next year perhaps, I will finally get the opportunity to meet some of you and talk music.
Thanks Stephaen!
What a novel approach to covering the show. I agree with alan, excellent!

Excellent!! Greatly humanizes the show, especially with the emotional/musical connection of each individual.
