Hey all, I'm going to be staying in New York for 2 or 3 weeks in December, and am excited to check out the music scene when I'm there. Where can I find a comprehensive listing of all the NY concerts? Ticketmaster and LiveNation are pretty much just the big shows, which don't really interest...

Hi all, I've been a Head-Fier for years now, but I've hardly ventured away from the Music/Off-Topic forums for the last couple years. After lots of research, I bought some HD-580s, HF-1s, E2Cs and KSC-75s and decided to never look back, for the sake of my wallet. So it goes without saying...

Hey fellow Head-Fiers, I'm looking for a specific watch and so naturally, I came to the all-knowledgeable Head-Fi for answers. I saw this one at the Vancouver Art Gallery a couple years ago, never bought it, and have regretted it since. Here is my description of what it looked like: The...

I'm in the market for a computer desk, and these Jerker desks from Ikea look quite nice: minimalist, clean design, open design on the bottom, solid feel, enough space for everything. The only thing I don't like is that it is actually *too* big for me, especially in depth. I want something...

To introduce this question, I'd like to start off by telling you why I'm asking it: Sometimes I find myself drained or lethargic and once I'm in that state, it's that much harder to get up out of it. Lately I've found that a good way to stay energetic and maintain a positive mindset is simply...

I am being considered as a candidate for a job opening at Earls Restaurant, I think in the next couple days I will know if I'm hired or not. The job is for kitchen work, ie. being a cook, and normally I would not be eligible for this type of job, seeing as how I have zero experience as a cook...

So I admit it: I am terrible with geography. I figure the easiest way to fix this is by having a world map for a desktop background. I searched Google and can only find a couple decent political world maps that suits my resolution (1680 x 1050) or over, and when i set them as wallpaper, they are...

Hey folks! So here's my situation. I've been out of high school for 3 years now, working full time at a meat counter, and saving tuition money while trying to figure out what I want to do with my life, career-wise. After a few years of that, I have the tuition money saved up but I really...

My brother sent me this, it's absolutely hilarious and really well put-together: http://media.spikedhumor.com/14348/B...%20Trailer.mov

I was extremely disheartened when I heard the news about my favourite tv show's 3rd season order being cut from 22 episodes down to 13. It looks as if the death of the show is basically nearly unavoidable, which is just a downright shame. I haven't seen a comedy anywhere near this well-crafted...

I am planning on going to Scotland this autumn and was looking at airline ticket prices online. This one place, flyzoom.com, has really amazing prices, and I was wondering if anyone here has ever had any experience with them, or heard good or bad things about them? I would just like any feedback...

So I was thinking that I could save some money by buying a DAP (iRiver iHP-120 or 20gb 4G iPod) from a US website, and then have it shipped to Canada because all of the DAP's I have seen up here have too high a markup as compared to the US websites. I could save a good $50-$100 cdn by doing...

G4 iPod 1. Does the G4 have wraparound lists? (ie. When navigating artists, once I reach the end of the list can I simply keep scrolling forward and it will automatically jump back to the top of the list, or do I have to scroll backwards all the way up to the top again?) 2. What is the...

I don't know if this is too invasive to ask, but I'm planning on re-decorating my bedroom, changing/replacing furniture, etc. and I need some new ideas and inspiration, and was wondering if anyone would care to post pictures of their bedrooms? If you don't feel comfortable doing that, then I...

Okay, so here's my story. I had been using Kazaa Lite for a while now and ever since I started using it, spyware would start appearing on my computer and I would get pop-ups like crazy, and this eventually led to my whole hard drive needing to be re-formatted. Now I know that the general...

Two questions. 1) Every so often you guys post images of your desktop, or the window that you are in, or the program you're viewing. How do you do that? I'd like to be able to save stuff on my screen as a jpeg file. 2) Does anyone know of any links or sites that show a list of keyboard...

1000 posts. King me.

So I've had my hotmail account for about 2 years now, and I'm starting to wish that there was more storage space than a measly 2 mb. What do you guys use for email, and how much storage space do you get? By the way, I don't want to spend any money for extra storage, I just wanted to know what...

There is a concert streaming that I would love to be able to record in either .mp3/.wav format or .mpeg/.avi/(etc) format. Is there any way to do this? Any kind of software I need? It means a lot to me, thanks for any help or suggestions. -sb.

I'm going to see Modest Mouse on Sunday night, opening for The Flaming Lips. I wanna get a taste of their sound, but at the moment I'm pretty tied up as far as money and time go. So I was wondering if any Modest Mouse fans could recommend their favourite songs... I've only heard a few songs so...

I am just loving this song right now. Saw the music video twice last night. Features the voice of Chris Martin (Coldplay). I'm definitely going to buy Ron's latest album, 'Cobblestone Runway' soon enough. I know it doesn't seem that way But maybe it's the perfect day Even though the bills...

Just within the last few days I noticed that the anti-shock on my Panasonic CT570 has not been functioning properly. I often walk with the 570 in my pants pocket, and whenever I try to do that now, it skips like crazy. Also if I try to pause it, sometimes it doesn't pause right away, there is a...

Just wondering what albums are on everyone's to-buy lists. I'll start with mine. The Dears - No Cities Left Beck - Sea Change Sigur Ros - ágætis byrjun White Stripes - Elephant Flaming Lips - Soft Bulletin Radiohead - Hail to the Thief (release date: June 10th) Matthew Good Band -...

It's almost here, folks. I've been waiting a long time for this. Only 3 days and 4 nights left until Matthew Good's new solo album, Avalanche, is released. I've had the pleasure of hearing 7 songs in full, and the other 6 songs I have heard 1 to 2 minute clips of each. For a minute there I...

I just saw the video last night for the opening song off of the album () by Sigur Ros. It's pretty beautiful. Any Sigur Ros fans should definitely watch this. Enjoy, folks. untitled #1
