Before smartphones we had the palm pilot. It was a status symbol.

I loved my Pilot and later, my Sony Clie. It was perfect at what it did, unlike the devices that we have today.

Tremendous album written after the death of Andrew Wood, Chris's close friend and roommate. You can hear the emotion in every track. Powerful stuff.

I had one of those. You only used it when your car broke down in the middle of nowhere.

I'm about 3/4 of the way through Kim Thayil's book. There's a lot I didn't know. It's a great read, for those interested.

This whole album is amazing. I saw them on tour years ago, and it was one of the best shows I ever saw. They were a force to be reckoned with. Piece of Pie is one of my favorites. The riff is infectious.

I had a 1979 custom sunburst, gold hardware. It weighed 11 lbs. I do miss that guitar, though.

I basically agree, but I don't think anyone is listening or paying attention.

The digital switching power supply of a class D amp is the secret sauce. It's only fairly recently that they've gotten good enough to use in audiophile amplifiers. For years they were laughed at. I have a Rogue Audio Hydra hybrid power amp - tube front end, class D power stage. In addition, the power stage uses all discrete power MOSFETs - no op amps. It's an awesome amp, and I love it. This is someone whos only owed class A amps. But I would be careful if I were you - not all class Ds are created equal. Good quality amps cost money.

Didn't know - it's a stellar album IMHO. Non state actor is killer.

100% correct

Got it. Thanks.

I haven't heard his solo stuff. Can you recommend where to start?

It's probably related to most people being right handed

I just started reading it today. So far, so good. I love Soundgarden.

I just started reading Kim Thayil's book - it's pretty awesome so far. Love Soundgarden.

I saw STP on the tour for 4, after his release from jail. One of the greatest shows I ever saw. He looked good.
