Hi, all.
Urge Overkill has reformed and will be playing four
dates in the next month. Please contact me if you are
able to tape any of these shows, I will repay you
handsomely for your efforts. For that matter, if you
have _any_ UO in your collection, please get in touch.

After six years out of the spotlight, Urge Overkill
announced a string of four dates that start later this
month.
Best known for its cover of Neil Diamond's "Girl,
You'll Be a Woman Soon" from the Pulp Fiction
soundtrack, Urge Overkill eventually broke up on 1997.
No word has been issued if the act will play or record
beyond the dates it announced.
Urge Overkill's tour dates are:
Jan. 15 - The Casbah, San Diego
Jan. 16 - Troubadour, Hollywood
Feb. 5 - Maxwell's, Hoboken, N.J.
Feb. 6 - The Bowery Ballroom, New York
Also, did anyone else notice this line in the NY Times
article about the new minidisc compression?
"Sound quality will approach that of compact discs,
and Hi-MD will also download and upload files to PCs."
No offense to MD users, but the words "will approach"
lead me to believe that it cannot actually replicate
or match the sound quality of compact discs. Thoughts?
Take care,
*phiL*
BWT: Explosions in the Sky, 11/10/03, Ottobar,
Baltimore, MD [recorded w/ Core Sound Binaurals > D8].

Who cares? Stealth tapers do.
I'll never carry around something the=20
size of the current Nomad, no matter=20
what it's capable of doing.=20
I just hope someone comes out with a=20

smaller before 2005, so we can cut=20
down on all the bandwidth and terabytes=20

forums such as this...
=============================================
A 60-gig Nomad ($350) will record 44.1k/16-bit for over 80 hours, and will
take other bit/sample rate inputs. I'd hate to go back to worrying about
disc swapping in the middle of two-hour sets, and why would you bother? Th=
e
JB3 is cheaper (or as cheap), requires no external media (at $7 per), and
holds essentially a whole tour at 44.1k/16-bit. It will dump a three-hour
show to your computer over firewire in five minutes or less.
We've not tested it completely, but have found (accidentally, at first,
while patching at one show) that the optical digi-in on the JB3 will take
48k/16 and 48k/24-bit inputs without batting an eye. Has anyone else teste=
d
feeding a JB3 other word lengths and/or sample rates? Will the thing take
192k/24-bit input? (We can't A>D at those lofty rates) Is the 3-hour file
size limitation affected by varying input type? I, for one, would love to
hear some results...
I'm just sayin' -

I think eveyone on this list should take a moment to reflect on the life
of Thomas Stockham. He was one of the fathers of digital recording,
developing many of the principles, building some of the first equipment,
and his company, Soundstream, did the first commercial digital
recordings. We owe him a lot. Use a little web searching to check out
his life and his contributions to our hobby. Thomas Stockham passed
away last week.
