Off the subject a bit, a little humor. I am just curious if any celebrities or famous people are using Audiogon. I know FABIO is into Hi-end audio, plus he had Martin Sayers of Martin Logan & Dan D'gastino of Krell on his little Bio program on the E network. I am not famous, and just curious.
I'm a long-time IT consultant and when I visit a client "in person" I usually must park in the lot behind the office building and sneak into my office, so the "IT consultant groupies" don't come after me! ;-)
It’s known that Tom Cruze is into hi-end audio. He’s also talked about it on The Tonight Show and even got Jimmy Falon into it...but I doubt they buy used or need a coumity to talk with for advice. I think it’s safe to bet that any famous celebrity will have a very dedicated dealer.Â
One would love to spend more time on here, but I am mostly to busy flying helicopters for personal reasons courtesy of the British tax paying public. Bless them all! Tally Ho!!!!! Prince Andrew, Duke of York.......
Oh, I'm truly famous amongst the local dealers and repairmen for ruining equipment, because I try everything but have got ten thumbs for fingers. I once even dropped a Threshold Stasis amp ( the original) from ten feet up on a stone floor. That however did not help to make me more famous, because the damned thing, though dented, when replugged, undauntedly kept on making music with those lovely red diodes in front flashing happily away.
Aside from cameo appearances on a few TV shows like "Beyond 2000", "MTV Sports" and a couple of local TV "magazines", my fame has been limited primarily to a critically acclaimed dissertation on the Luddites. Okay, only half of that is true. Your guess as to which is as good as mine. -Frank Peel
I had a top ten selling video and have recently come in to a lot of cash. I'm still young, very willing and all natural, well... My turn ons are older men, money and posing nude. With my new found wealth I'm looking for some help in selecting an audio system for my new house. Can any of you audiophiles help me? The only requirement is that your either very attractive or have a lot of money and that you have lots of free time to experiment. Please guys, help me... A.N.S.
Perhaps we should change our definition of what constitutes "famous". I think you should consider Sugarbrie famous, he's performing in concert with Dave Brubeck this month in Baltimore--that's terrific! I'm not famous now, but I was for 15 minutes last month when I had my picture on the front page of the Arts section of the NY Times. Any others similarly famous?
Rich and famous people care about the conspicuous comsumption of houses, clothes, cars, boats, travel, and maybe on occasion food and wine. Nobody cares about audio -- any more than cheerleader went to the prom with the AV geek in high school.
Well ah actually think Monika was getting along in age, of course ah felt her pain, but we all have to move on. Ah believe ah could pardon you for a few Cuban cigars and uh maybe some other "favors". Of course after which you'll really need pardoning. Bill.
Well, my dog seems to think I'm famous.........Hey Britney, are those things real or did you buy them? That money would have been better spent on vinyl than silicone!
Heh brad funny seeing you here we just finished that great movie together and you never told me you were into audio, we should get together after the grammys and talk audio.
