    Your in. The stipulations were either 250 posts or a member for a year, you have more than 250 posts.

    The only reason for this is that I want it to go to someone that has a vested interest in being a member here, if you have been a member for a year or longer and you see this thread you are in my mind a vested member, some people dont have much to say nothing wrong with that.

    Or if you have 250 posts or more in a lesser time you once again have showed a vested interest as far as im concerned, and for those that have neither stick around get involved because there always Karmas being gave away :)

    Great Karma, I'm In

    Congratst to xj4094dg he is the winner of this Karma chosen by a random number generator. I had it pick a random number between 1-23 which is the number of people in for this Karma in the order they said they were in and it picked 19.

    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

    Special Thanks going out to Snow for this amazing CD. I'm about half way through disc 1 and am loving it. This is the first time I've every heard Alison Krauss on my system. Her voice has amazing range and character and the backup vocals of Union Station melt right in. The musicianship is killer and I love the the way the Dobro, the mandolin, the fiddle and guitars come together for a great listen on a beautifull Sunday. I think now I have to buy the DVD.

    This will be fun to listen to on all my current set ups. Right now the LSi9's are up, the Maggies will be next and then the SDA's...

    Great Karma Snow!

    David.

    Your welcome David Im glad your enjoying it :) She is a true talent and it is a very nice live recording, a lot of the time either the hall stadium or wherever a live event is recorded in is awful for recordings or the artist doesnt sound anything like their studio recording.
