Eric Martin and the Illrians are playing Johnny D's in Davis Square. Andrea Gillis is playing the Toad in Porter Square backed by her Other Girls' cohorts Jennifer D'Angora and Michelle Pathus. I hear Asa Brebner is playing there also. I don't know the time frame for either show. So please check the club's websites. I figure I'll go to Toad first and end up at Johnny D's around 10ish.

Lily) and her terrific TV family, the Munsters. Here are the creepy things we unearthed: Surfing Lungs - Munsters Theme Drusalee & the Dead - Lily The Who - Pictures of Lily Del Shannon - Don't Gild the Lily, Lily * The Worst - Dracula's Daughter * Fiends - Made for Me or Eerie Avenue Zebra Stripes - Intro '66 * Suckerpunch - Lone Wolf Fever Eddie & the Monsters - Whatever Happened to Eddie?

This past Tuesday evening, the home of ? and his manager and manager's wife, burned to the ground. They have lived in this house for the past 30 plus years and everything they own, gold records, photos, everything was lost. They are uninsured. They raise Yorkshire Terriers and lost four of their seven dogs and other pets in the fire. They are now trying to survive by living in their tour bus parked at their farm. They were off the road so the bus was not stocked with anything at the time. No food, clothing, or any thing that will allow them to exist for long. They are in need of everything. Also any photos or recordings anyone can supply them with as they were not able to save anything except the three of his dogs, two of whom are eldery and blind and one boot he could slip on before running out of the fire. Please help if you can. Any donations can be mailed to ? & The Mysterians at: PO Box 96 Clio, MI 48420 If you can help in any other ways, please contact us at msswartz@chartermi.net and speak with us. We can put you in direct contact with ? if you would like to help him directly. We'd like to see about putting on a few benefits for them so they can rebuild. Anyone interested please please contact us quickly. If you'd like to put on a benefit for them yourselves, any and all help will be greatly appreciated. *** Hopefully, Toronto scenesters can pull something cool together to show our collective support soon.

GASPO'S ZAUBER CUCHLIS (MAGIC BROWNIES) Ok, I normally use hash (that's the most available), but you could just substitute grass by grinding it up real fine (use a pepper grinder, and you can get rid of those stems too, but they have a harder taste). Rules: Warn your guests to wait one hour after the first brownie until they have a second one. The buzz from eating is different than smoking it, and even the heaviest smokers may have a hard time recognizing the effects at first. Ingredients: 200g butter (margarine won't work) 200g unsweetened chocolate 250g sugar 4 eggs 200g flour splash vanilla extract 100g dark chocolate (regular candy type) Directions: 1.. over low heat, melt butter in saucepan. 2.. once butter is just slightly bubbling, mix in ground up hash and stir for 5-10 minutes, taking the pan off the heat every now and then to keep the butter from steaming too much (the magic actually steams out too I think). 3.. melt unsweetened chocolate into butter, stirring constantly. 4.. when all chocolat is melted totally, splash a few drops of vanilla in. If you can hear the vanilla sink to the bottom and "sizzle", the the mix is hot enough. So, remove from heat. If it doesn't sizzle, then your low setting is low enough. I usually just turn off the heat, but leave the pan on the burner (for a ceramic stove). 5.. stir in the sugar little by little (so it doesn't clump) 6.. once all the sugar is mixed in, beat the eggs and mix them in. 7.. add the flour (stir in first so it doesn't blow all around), and use an electric mixer on LOW (it's a waste to splash magic all over the kitchen) until the whole bit is smooth and there are no lumps or pockets of flour. 8.. break dark chocolate into nickel size chunks, and stir in. 9.. pour mix into shallow pan (2-3cm), and pop in medium heat oven for about 30-40min. NOTE: I never time the puppies, I just look at 'em and know. A toothpick will come out with just a little brown color when they are done. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2007 12:28:52 -0500 From: "Brock From The Grave" Subject: Re: [bomp] What do you guys think of this? I bought one of these and haven't been that impressed. I haven't had a chance to play around with it too much but I found that running a turntable through a preamp and into my PC worked as well and I was only out the cost of a preamp (under $50). There are also Numark turntables with a built-in preamp that aren't as much as the USB models and they are a more proven technology. I would give this a marginal recommendation, but ONLY if you have a reasonably fast computer and USB 2.0. If you don't have 2.0, forget about it. I may like this a lot better after I play around with it more, but I just haven't had time since I bought it (I've been fighting pneumonia) to really put it through its paces. > Numark USB Turntable > rip your vinyl directly to MP3. > > http://www.thinkgeek.com/electronics/audio/8be8/?cpg=wnrss ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2007 18:02:40 -0500 From: Blair Buscareno Subject: Re: [bomp] And then there's this...

If you already have a decent turntable you'd probably be better off getting a preamp and a USB sound device like an M-Audio Audiophile USB or similar. 2) if you're going to go though the time and effort of digitizing your vinyl collection, don't rip directly to MP3. Record to WAV/AIFF (at actual CD quality) and archive it in a lossless compression format like FLAC or APE. You can always make MP3s from the archived copies without having to re-record the original vinyl. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2007 12:04:06 -0800 From: Molecules Subject: Re: [bomp] What do you guys think of this? I also have some advice to ask I play 3 different keyboards on stage and I am trying to find a good amp that could work for all 3 - right now I just use DIs My problem is that they are very different - I play a Teischord (combo organ), Crumar performer and a little Casio. Soon to be added to the collection is a Vox Jaguar Any suggestion on the kind of amp??? I had a small SWR bass amp for a while but it just wasn't working out thanks!!

The point of the USB turntable is to be able to get your vinyl onto your computer, not necessarily to play it back on your stereo. I figured the idea was to get the stuff in your computer's music library, maybe to put it on an iPod, or to throw it into a podcast. Remember, you're not being forced to rip stuff to MP3 when you take it in from a USB turntable. You can also export as WAV files or various other file formats. Of course, files with better sound quality almost always take up more disk space.
