    Honest opinion wanted - iPod with ER-4P's

    Although I use the same setup, I think it is overkill unless you use Lossless.

    Shoot, my house just got broken into

    I find it funny all of you guys started talking about guns and sprays and what not, I didn't get ROBBED, no one was home, what good is a gun? And I have no idea what gun laws are like over here in Canada, anyway.

    Shoot, my house just got broken into

    Thanks everyone for the advice! I lied, the burglar(s) did steal something, they stole my penny jar Seriously, so far that's the only thing that I find missing, and I probably only had about $10 in that jar. The burglar(s) ripped out 2 of my house alarm's keypads and also ripped out...

    Shoot, my house just got broken into

    I live in my uncle's house which is relatively big, and we have these wooden doors with lots of small windows on them on our backyard side, well this guy used one of the shovels we left outside our house (sigh) and broke the doors and got inside. Luckily I armed the alarm before I left the...

    Wedding music

    Elton John Recommendations

    I play piano and have been listening to lots of Ben Folds' music, and although his piano rock is a lot more wild, he does say it was Elton John's music that partly influenced him. Any Elton's fans on here? Any recommendations for which of his album I should start with (he has quite a few)...

    Fashionable CD holding racks?

    My ever-increasing CD collection is needing a new rack, this will probably be placed in my living room beside the hi-fi. Any suggestions for something that looks a bit more fashionable? I remember earlier one of the sponsors for this forum (it might still be there) made this CD holder with...

    Under The Iron Sea - Keane

    There's that guitar sound because they put the piano through a guitar effects pedal. Very much like how Edge gets his guitar to sound like keyboards sometimes. I can definitely hear some U2 influences on some of the tracks. I find this album more interesting than their previous one.

    iPod Play Song problem

    iPod Play Song problem

    I have a 4 month old 30GB video iPod, and 80% of the time when I select a song to play on it, somehow it plays the next song on the list. So let's say I wanted to play a song on my playlist, it would try to play the song (I see the album artwork and stuff come up), but then it fails and...

    Software with slow motion playing

    Thanks. And nope, I'm not a guitar player. I am more interested in transcribing jazz piano solos

    Software with slow motion playing

    I am looking for a software with which I can play music with "slow motion" so it is easier for me to transcribe solos. Any suggestions? I am looking for something free. My Creative NJB3 can do this, but I don't have all my music on it anymore since I got the iPod.

    Death Cab For Cutie fans?

    What Sarah Said has really touched me. I also like Stability from the Stability EP.
