This presents a problem-- I've heard lots of stuff about ARK, bought the first one, STILL don't like it (sorry Graham :>. Is this second one much better? I like Tore Ostby (RIP Conception) but this first ARK is just something I can't deal with. Also I just bought the DVD of Scenes, I know I'm late but just got a DVD player. Is there anything on it I should pay special attention to?

Is there anything on it I should pay special attention to? Make sure you take enough time in the setup section. The Setup section is very important, because your TV/monitor should be calibrated accurately. Make SURE you spend at LEAST a minute on the color bars--in order to adjust everything properly. And yes, that was most certainly a hint. ;) ------------------------------------------------- Andrew Coutermarsh email_address_removed http://cout.dhs.org/ ------------------------------------------------- If you try and don't succeed, cheat.

Just noticed something disturbing. Only ONE canadian tour date planned for OFB! What the hell? Goddamn promoters here in Canada piss me off. So much publicity could be won by just giving them the required greenbacks to come here and play their asses off!

It cost around $300 then but would be less now. I've never had it skip. I think that many CD players now come with buffer memory to prevent skipping -- I'd recommend getting that. It broadcasts the CD on an FM band so you would choose the frequency (eg. 88.5) and then tune your radio to it. It sounds good, though not quite what you could get out of a CD player directly connected to your stereo system (depending on how good your system is). I've been very happy with it. You wouldn't even necessarily have to get a new in-dash radio. I kept the factory-installed radio in my car. They had to run a wire up to the dash and attach a small control pad on the dash to provide the play/stop/etc buttons. A lot of the changers today come with wireless remotes in addition to the wired control pad that attaches to your dash. The only disadvantage of the 10-disc changer in the trunk is that it's not quite as easy to change CDs. So, if you want to change to a CD that's not in the 10-disc changer already you have to stop the car, open the trunk, take out the cartridge, and change disks (and have the jewel case for the old one on hand). But really that's not so bad and you don't have the CDs scattered around your back seat. I ended up buying one of those 10-disc CD holders that holds 10 CD jewel cases. That way I can keep the CD jewel cases in my car more easily if I want to look at the liners (or just to remember what is actually in the CD-changer). The changer I have doesn't take up much trunk space, fitting nicely into one corner. The only complaint I have is that the little door that protects the CD cartridge is rather flimsy. I'd recommend the 10- or 12-disc changers rather than the 6- disc changer since I've found that you can go through 10 CDs pretty quickly, especially when driving to work every day. Looking at Crutchfield.com, it appears that the prices range from about $199 to $240 (plus installing + shipping) for the FM broadcasting ones. The ones for which you'd have to buy a new in-dash radio can be slightly less expensive not counting the cost of the new radio. A few of the newer drives even support the CD-RW format if you use that a lot (most if not all already support the CD-R format for standard home-burned audio discs). Mine works fine with CD-Rs. As others have said, keep an eye out for a local shop with a good price that will give free installation if you buy it there.

I am happy to say that the opportunity to see DT in concert is coming my way. I used to live in the little island of Puerto Rico, where no good shows come to. SO that I am moved to the continental USA, the time has come! Indeed... on March 22nd in Boston, I will for the first time see the band in concert. I am SO psyched. But of course my seeing the band relies on getting tickets. Is this an event that would quickly sell out in Boston? I am just wondering how aggressive I need to be about getting tickets? Is it one of those concert that will sell out moments after tickets go on sale?

It's what the market will bear. We're stupid enough to buy Britney's newest reiterations at places with jacked-up prices, so they'll freely take us for whatever we'll shell out. But of course, you already knew the sad truth... >(Actually, I went through the various CDNOW Coupons, I wonder how much >money CDNOW is losing on this venture?). Nothing. I buy from an independent store in my home town. He makes a small profit over HIS OWN list (wholesale?), and I spend about $14/disc... cheaper if I preorder.

I have a friend whose ex-girlfriend used to grab CDs before they were finished being ejected, and that scratched the hell out of them.
