Silver Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 641 Registered: Feb-05 | GRRRR they are really starting to p!ss me off! there has to be a way to control where they post. They are really getting on my nerves. Lately it seems like every time someone asks for home audio subwoofer advice, some immature ar$ehole butts in with "you really need these MTX yadda yadda yadds 'cuz theyre the loudest subs (or best subs) on the market, nevermind that they are for CARS or what about the numerous posts of these guys asking about which subs fit which car IN THE MIDDLE of a current thread where we are trying to give advice to someone that is in the CORRECT place... AARGH I can usually deal with it but tonight it really irritated me |

just trying Unregistered guest | Hey, you were 16 once too ya' know. lol |
Silver Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 644 Registered: Feb-05 | um... when I was 16 I was listening to jazz music already. |
just trying Unregistered guest | Gosh I hate having to spell things out. Kids today don't listen to jazz, they laugh at jazz. "Music" to them is anything that goes boom or boom bang. You know what I meant. |
Silver Member Username: Stu_pittIrvington, New York USA Post Number: 947 Registered: May-05 | I posted a message to the admin about it. I listed a bunch of threads in the amps and subs sections. I guess we'll have to wait and see if they get deleted/moved and what happens. The Amps, CD players, and Subs sections get over-run the most. Funny how their aren't any home audio posts in the car audio section. I think it's a conspiracy. I've entertained the thought of starting to post over their and even start threads, but I keep telling myself to be the bigger person. Speaking of misplaced threads... shouldn't this be in the Subs section Gavin? |
Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 2788 Registered: Feb-05 | Sorry, "just trying" but you are wrong. The man who is remodeling my kitchen has a teenage employee who just loves jazz. His Mother and Uncle turned him onto it when he was young and he's been interested since. Most kids don't listen to jazz but then again neither do most adults. |
Silver Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 648 Registered: Feb-05 | stu, the reason why I didn't place this in the subs section was because I was afraid of soem smarta$$ kid posting on it that I was wrong, or didn't know anything and telling me to shut up. I figured I would get a better response in here. |
just trying Unregistered guest | Oh I know there is some teens that like Jazz. I just do not think they are the ones posting car audio stuff in the sub section heh. |
Silver Member Username: Stu_pittIrvington, New York USA Post Number: 950 Registered: May-05 | Good call Gavin. |

Silver Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 650 Registered: Feb-05 | I have all the CD's waiting for me to listen when I want a true hifi listening experience. if you like an out of this world listening experience with all kinds of percussion thrown in, and tons of ambient soundscapes, and outstanding sound quality, I would suggest checking out the rippingtons. Anything from one of their GRP label releases will be great! I have not been overly impressed with their newer releases. |
New member Username: RaymerPost Number: 1 Registered: Feb-06 | That's funny Gavin because I like pretty much everything you listed. I also get into bluesy stuff like SRV and Santana. At heart, I am a strings freak, anything with a cool solo or good riff will satisfy me. Oh, and I am also quite the sucker for 80's rock and pop, stuff like Blondie. P.S It's me "just trying". |

Silver Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 661 Registered: Feb-05 | I also have Santana's "supernatural" on my iTunes as well... there is more than what I listed. |
Silver Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 662 Registered: Feb-05 | its amazing what a good HiFi will do for just about anything. |
Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 2789 Registered: Feb-05 | "Oh I know there is some teens that like Jazz. I just do not think they are the ones posting car audio stuff in the sub section heh." Agreed. |

Silver Member Username: KanoBC Canada Post Number: 840 Registered: Oct-04 | By producing excellent music. Slippery When Wet was absolutely a great album, and Thriller? C'mon, while these artists are both just plain gaye these days, I don't let that cloud my judgement, music's music. |

Actually I loathed both of them even back when they were really big. Bon Jovi and their '80s glam-rockers brethren drove me into classic rock for almost a whole decade. And I still remember those red MJ jackets...ew! |
Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 2797 Registered: Feb-05 | I like 13 artists (which is very few) on that list. That's why there is so much music, so we all have that gift to enjoy. |
Silver Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 668 Registered: Feb-05 | Thriller is actually the MJ CD that I have Art, As I said, wide range of gernas that I listen to everything from jazz, counrty, to house. |
Silver Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 669 Registered: Feb-05 | gerna? what's that... lol I think I meant genra |
Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 2800 Registered: Feb-05 | No, I think you meant "genre". |
Silver Member Username: GavincummNew York USA Post Number: 671 Registered: Feb-05 | LMAO!!! yeah... you thought correctly... |
New member Username: RaymerPost Number: 7 Registered: Feb-06 | Lol Edster, I owned one of those red jackets man! I got really into Thriller. That video amazed me and by than I was quite sick of my usual Aerosmith and Beastie boys cassettes so it was a nice change of pace. Ahh the memories... |
Gold Member Username: NuckParkhill, Ontario Canada Post Number: 1423 Registered: Dec-04 | 1986 called..they want the jacket back. |
Bronze Member Username: RaymerPost Number: 11 Registered: Feb-06 | Guess they want my Zooba's and LA Looks hair gel back too eh? hehe |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 6299 Registered: Dec-03 | 1986??? Didn't the "Thriller" Album come out in 82 or 83? And don't forget the "British Knights" sneakers |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 6300 Registered: Dec-03 | Michael Jackson still looked normal then. He looks so different now |
Gold Member Username: NuckParkhill, Ontario Canada Post Number: 1427 Registered: Dec-04 | Remember when? Oh the innocent days of carefree summers, pretty girls and guys with pretty hair. 5 non-blondes on the radio, 'runaway' was a young pretty Bon Jovi and Eddie VH still had his original hips. I remember when... |
Gold Member Username: NuckParkhill, Ontario Canada Post Number: 1428 Registered: Dec-04 | lol, thanks, Bern |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 6305 Registered: Dec-03 | Guys with pretty hair...that was a very disturbing thing for me. |
Silver Member Username: Stu_pittIrvington, New York USA Post Number: 954 Registered: May-05 | I miss my mullet. Then again, it wasn't called a mullet back then. |
Gold Member Username: NuckParkhill, Ontario Canada Post Number: 1434 Registered: Dec-04 | Back then it was called ...aww who cares. I had a permed Mullet, like Eddie Van Halen. Without Valerie. I'm telling you, it just...ain't...fair. |

Bronze Member Username: MusicluvrPost Number: 49 Registered: Apr-05 | Most embarrassing music in your collection contest: The Waitresses (I Know What Boys Like) The Knack (My Sharona) I've got these on vinyl. I'm won't expose my system to these "gems". I'm afraid they will permanently damage my gear. Anyone else man or woman enough to own up to their past? (Anonymous post=wimp) |

Gold Member Username: NuckParkhill, Ontario Canada Post Number: 1454 Registered: Dec-04 | good one song album, Berny. Brings up another question. Which is the all-time one song album? Golden Earring? |
Gold Member Username: NuckParkhill, Ontario Canada Post Number: 1455 Registered: Dec-04 | And where would 'bullet hits the bone' be without that bass line? Cheers |
Gold Member Username: NuckParkhill, Ontario Canada Post Number: 1456 Registered: Dec-04 | The Northern Pikes 'she ain't pretty'. If you don't have it, download it.Great song. My bad, they also did 'girl with a problem'. Different album, also good. One album, one song, second verse, same as the first. |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 6359 Registered: Dec-03 | one song album? There are so many. Men without Hats - Safety Dance |
Bronze Member Username: MusicluvrPost Number: 50 Registered: Apr-05 | "Hey our band does 'my sharona'.!?" Nuck, that certainly beats simply owning the album. I've also got Bananarama. Does your band do a cover of 'Cruel Summer'? :-) Check out this link for One Hit Wonders. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-hit_wonder This one has a link to "One Hit Wonder Radio" that will stream winners like "The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia" and "Convoy" to your computer. Unfortunately, the links to the Top 100 list don't seem to work. http://www.vh1.com/shows/series/100_greatest/one_hit_wonders/ |
Gold Member Username: Project6Post Number: 6361 Registered: Dec-03 | Man, I thought we were doing songs/albums that we actually own Knowing its existence is one thing but actually owning it is different matter. |
Bronze Member Username: MusicluvrPost Number: 51 Registered: Apr-05 | I just had to share the links. I've been listening to the One Hit Wonders Radio for over an hour now...and THE HITS JUST KEEP ON COMING! I was also hoping that some1 could tell me how 2 stream 1 Hit 1ders to my car system. It would sound AWESOME thru my 1200 Watt RMS 12" Power Acustic MoFo Sub-Woofers! ;-) |
