    Would still like to go, only thing is she spent a fortune for the tickets, so can't turn it down.
    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

    Yes, that'd be great, Steve! It'd probably be interesting for you to hear them in a bigger room, too?

    If anyone would be interested, and there was a suitable system in need of one, I can bring along my Rega CD player.
