No Wonder You Spend So Much Money On Stereo Equipment

"the music plays the band"  ...I love that!

Me too!

but we are not music addicts here, we are hifi gear addicts :)

I hope this is a poor attempt at humor cause otherwise it’s just really sad.

I can’t take credit for that phrase. It’s an excerpt from the Hunter/Garcia tune "The Music Never Stopped" that appeared on the Dead’s "Blues for Allah" record. I haven’t , so far, encountered a more apt description of the experience in question. BTW, I've also experienced it playing in a duo, whether or not that constitutes a "band".

I've never had a nise bleed from lis6to my audio equipment all night long ,but have had it doing to much Blow....lol.

This reminds me of the Guy Clark song The Guitar.
