I'm sure glad the border people never asked us about the guitars and amps we had with us. I've heard of a guy being refused at the border since he was accused of "going to the States to make money".

I have an HP CD Writer Plus 7200i which is waiting on the new computer. I've been shown both Easy CD Creator and the Spin Doctor thing--had planned to use both. What I need to find out about is how to get audio (guitar or otherwise) into the Soundblaster and into a .WAV before going to disc. Harvey Reid has been recording his fine music to DAT. At the going prices for writable CDs (as you say, about $2 per), he could go direct to CD. This HP drive does the re-writable discs, too; but I hear that one of those might not play on other drives as readily as would the regular CD-R discs. The Amp Guy at work (in addition to bringing in his Yamaha 11-string [one's busted], which took up the first 15 min. of my work day) gave me a CD of a local guitar dealer's music--complete with cover & liner stuff. It's sure easier for an artist to get onto disc, at least with local distribution. ___ X WinQwk 2.0b#683 X All we wanted to do was to socialize --- Maximus 3.01 * Origin: The Flying Circus BBS (1:2410/905) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 175 GUITAR Ref: F5G00055 Date: 04/22/98 From: DON DESCHAMPS Time: 07:46am \/To: ALL (Read 0 times) Subj: Rolling Stones Concert Once again I was lucky enough to have my oldest son take me to see the Stones. This time we had floor seats right beside the second stage. Great sound. However, nobody sat down and for a short, old dude like me that was a major hassles. Had to take a few seat breaks and watch them on the screen. As usual they put on a good show. The fact that it was held in the Molson Centre and not the Big Owe made a lot of difference in the sound. Lotsa good guitars being used there. When they came down to the second stage we were about 20 ft. away from them. My son almost caught one of Ron Woods's picks at the end of the set. The opening act was a trio from Saskatchewan called Wide Mouth Mason. A little loud and the vocals tended to get lost in the mix. Don't know the guy's name but the kid on guitar was really good. He had a Gibson Blueshawk(?). Not sure of the type. Used two Fender amps, blonde, maybe the newer series. Bassist, also very good, had an Ampeg 2x15 cab. Couldn't see his amp too well. Laid down some good stuff too. Drummer was also great.
