For me, I'd rather see the comedies in theaters. Everybody else gets laughing during the good ones (although that can make you miss a line here or there) and the surround sound tends not to matter too much. I like to save the movies with good sound for the Axioms at home

I had no idea Henry Mancini would be so much fun to listen to in Dolby PLIIx music surround mode. A bit dated sounding recording in stereo really comes alive in surround mode. Got’ta love the Pink Panther Theme and Peter Gunn.
Good idea sirquack. I’ll have to try Supertramp next. |

Just found out that Laurie Anderson is going to be performing in Nashville, so I'm listening to "Strange Angels". There was a period of several years when I'd drive just about anywhere to see her -- a buddy and I drove up to Philadelphia from Tuscaloosa, Alabama to see a show. Another time merited a trip to Richmond. Now I'm fortunate enough to live in a city where these kinds of shows are booked all the time.
Laurie's definitely an acquired taste, but "Strange Angels" is easily her most accessible work and it's a stunning demo disc for any speaker setup.

Mike
Here again we find some common ground. I saw Laurie back when she took the Strange Angels tour on the road. I saw her here in Atlanta at the Roxy. It was an great show. I still listen to that cd often. Never got tired of it. I suppose she is promoting a new realease? I haven't heard anything yet. oz

Rick
What no SRV? ![]() I have only heard a couple of things by Smashmouth. But I liked what I heard. One of these days I'll have to break down and pick something up. Where would one start with them? oz
