    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    Radiohead's performance was absolutely stellar.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    They didn't seem to have any chemistry that's fo sho. Is it just me or did Allison seem not to be that happy to be there? It's a pretty good album though....

    Yeah,pretty disgusting in my book.But that crowd saw nothing wrong with it and made me wonder how well they can also judge music....seeing that they give every Tom,Dick,and Harry a microphone these days.

    Raising Sand was mastered by idiots. Sounds like crap.
    It's a shame, it could of been a pretty good album.
    Modern recording at work.
