    I just ordered some new speakers.

    Buy first then ask for input? Unless you have a very knowledge salesperson I would think it would be better to ask for input discuss then purchase. It took me months to select my new speakers even after going to a couple of speakers shootouts and hearing 30+ different speakers.

    Earthquake in the Northeast

    You got to go when the weather is good,never in the cold or rain. Everyone which goes regularly tailgates. Bring chairs, dinner, drinks and snacks. We never sit in the car. We also used to bring a tent for the kids and get there 2 hrs early. I would go to one of the two Drive-Ins Mike in PA. One...

    Earthquake in the Northeast

    I’m talking about the Valley Stream Drive-In which is now a multiplex and a mall. That’s where I saw a planet of the apes in the 60s. I can’t remember when it closed but I would say early 70s. The Westbury drive-in was the one with the two screens, I used to take my daughter there so that one...

    Earthquake in the Northeast

    I remember it well, I went to probably one of the last standalone theaters in Valley Stream to see earthquake in senaround. I believe they did two other movies, Battlestar Galactica and a World War II movie, but I never saw those two in a theater. Another theater which was a couple of blocks...

    Earthquake in the Northeast

    Well, guys you don’t have to worry about me moving to the West Coast now. I may visit but aren’t ever moving there, can’t imagine a big one. A friend of mine moved back to the East coast years ago. Told me the story how an earthquake threw him out of bed and stuff went flying off the shelves. I...

    Here you go Mix, you have 30+ years to go. You can bet he isn’t moving any heavy stuff. You have to plan ahead and think smart. This is somewhere in Babylon, NY not to far from me. I hope I am still moving that well when I am in my 90s View...

    Earthquake in the Northeast

    Yeah, just felt the earthquake. I thought it was a truck going by or someone doing jumping jacks, but turned out to be a 4.8 earthquake. My niece felt it, and she’s down by DC. And of course I’m supposed to be going into New York City today. Sitting here watching the news making sure everything...

    Backup equipment

    You should have enough to make sure you can finish the event. I find what I consider a risk is the laptop. So I always have 2 running and a backup. Laptops can have 2 sources of issues, software & hardware. That being said issues usually don’t happen at events but I have hard drives fail and...

    Sam Ash Closing over 10+ stores

    It’s actually down the block from Rosevelt field and I think it is closing. Guitar city has a store across the street from Roosevelt Field. I think guitar city is doing better business as I have brought a couple of smaller items from the store. I used to bring my son into guitar city to,play the...

    WKRP for those who are in radio

    I must’ve missed this episode of WKRP. I used to watch the show because I was in college radio while I was in college. My favorite episode is the turkey drop one, I watch it every November.. This episode I don’t remember seeing but it has a very interesting and funny backstory...

    What are your thoughts on Yorkville NX 25 12" speakers?

    Told before I did backyard parties (not for seniors) with one speaker on a stand and brought my kids in the cars and a Photobook. I leave the second speaker in trunk. I actually have a smaller Denon 3000 controller I use for stuff like at and which I keep in the house. For events which they are...

    Well a good reason to understand social media

    TikTok was at one of the big trade shows in NYC I was at. It’s big business. My kids are on TikTok all the time and they are in the 20 to 40 yr age group. In my networking groups I speak with Social Media experts and they might as well be speaking to me in another language. In some cases, it may...

    Well a good reason to understand social media

    Something came up on Instagram about me for their mobile Mondays feature back in February. I had no idea it was posted over a month ago. Well, I guess you do need to know a little bit about social media. Which, evidently I don’t. I use Facebook and I think I have Twitter and Instagram accounts...
