I have a couple boxes of vinyl in my garage. I used to buy the album, tape it onto cassette then never play the album again Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Hendrix, Supertramp, Elton John, Dobbie Brothers, etc..

I'll see if I can find the boxes (my garage is stuffed!). Not sure how much I want to lug to the meet though...

Err... okay okay, I'm starting to get greedy here, but I think I could spend a week in their listening room.

Excellent. I have 1 and 3 on CD, so if we could get that on vinyl it would be great for comparisons. It was one of the first pieces I heard with my K340's and brought me to tears. Beautiful stuff.

I've got Remain in Light on CD and will likely be bringing it myself, so no need.

Micah - You've got Endtroducing on vinyl!? I will definitely be borrowing that at some point during the meet.

Morning everyone! We are officially CLOSED FOR REGISTRATION, as we have hit the maximum number of people for the space.

If anyone is not able to make it for any reason, PM ME RIGHT AWAY.

Thanks for everyone's help - this should turn out to be a fantastic meet!

[EDIT] I don't know if there will be any other photographers at the meet, but I will be bringing my new Canon 30D so please do be sure to eat lots of flattering snacks like broccoli and poppy seeds and in turn, I'll be sure to capture lots of toothy grins!

I don't think anybody mentioned this, but starting friday Toronto is having their SummerLicious Restaurants event offering $15-$20 lunches and $25-$35 dinners at places that would usually cost $50+ per person.

I think reservation is necessary for most places.

We are also lucky enough to be just a block away from 3 nice places (Rosedale Diner, Thai Magic and Lakes Restaurant), 2 of which are offering a lunch.

For those that are planning to eat out after the meet, I highly recommend checking out the site and making reservations. I'll be trying to reserve at least 10 restaurants for the next 2 weeks to try everything

I found copies of all selections but some in CD and some in Vinyl with different conductors.(Some CDs at different libraries) I wasn't as thorough as you might want to be though so we'll look Saturday.

Ah, you're right. I got so excited that the first two I searched up were at the right library I didn't look closely enough at the others. Well, I can try searching more stuff later tonight. They'll have no shortage of things I want to hear!

If it's not too much trouble to find a few it would be great! Thanks, Tony

It sounded like you were familiar with the library system here.

If you could write down the call numbers (i.e. phono cd #) of the ones you want and find it will make accessing them on Saturday quick and easy.

Thanks, Tony
