Things we cannot be bothered by anymore

Appreciating and experiencing incredible sound without the manic need to own it right then and there ... not easy 

Approaching demos with the mindset of "what is weak here" before even firing it up, then leaning into a listening positing looking for faults - this is my own character defect in life overall - WIP 

I’m done going to see & hear great musicians in even moderate sized venues whose sound gets ruined by big line array speaker systems digitally amplified. Most of the beautiful nuance, detail, tone etc. of their fine skills played on great instruments is lost. My pretty good home system does a better job communicating all this than any live concert I’ve seen in several years. Small venues like a nightclub or cafe is all I’ll consider now but there aren’t that many left anymore. 

YouTube videos that over hype products. “This will destroy all others” or “The last    “blah blah” you’ll ever need”. “Holy Grail.” And my all time favorite “Giant Killer”.

Leaf blowers and the folks that used them.
