Papa, good to hear from you and your unshakable " Communist China Virus " cry. This is one point I agree with. But we should’ve been prepared much better and acted much more quicker and decisively than we did and still do. The virus is going to be slowly suppressed but not eliminated any time soon. You don’t do elimination like that. Look at New Zealand and yes, China. I got tired of this sort of prison too but we got to continue or it will be a disaster. No amount of music can compensate for this unnatural lack of space, both physical and mental. It is getting harder. We just have to hang on. I expect serious improvements soon enough unless they screw it up, but do worry about possible second wave in fall/winter. It might happen, no-one knows for sure.
Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer?
I’m 63. I’m not wealthy but I have a tolerant wife and I still love to pursue great sound. But I find myself increasingly reluctant to spend significant amounts on new gear. I know my hearing acuity is not as good as it used to be, but my love of music and good sound is not diminished. When considering a purchase, I find myself factoring in cost versus life expectancy (mine!) and auditory function. I’ll even have some guilt about spending my kid’s inheritance. Is something wrong with me?
