  1. Oh well, that can happen without rain too, can't it? hahaha... but yeah, I definitely want to attend some concert with some heavy rain, I've heard that -if everything goes fine- the atmosphere and the connection between band and audience are even stronger than usual. But it needs to be a really exciting rock concert, something in the lines of U2 or Muse, where I jump up and down all the time. I love rain and being under it, but I need movement: standing still in the pouring rain is horrible.

    Rainy concerts are the best. When I came back from one, on the tram back to the city, a lady there was having a birthday so the whole tram - 250 people - sang happy birthday to this woman at like 1.30am. Just too funny yet so much fun.


    We sang Bad in the train on the way back to NYC from the Giants Stadium show in 09. It was a classic moment. No rain, but still awesome.

  3. THat's amazing. How many people?
  4. Yeah you gotta be moving around, definitely. I really think the ones that stand there and look totally uninterested - why are you here then? I mean they can do what they like but when I go to a show I go nuts because I don't go to a lot of shows down here.
  5. Yeah, I never understood the quiet people in the rock concerts. It's alright if you're taping, you have all my respect, but if not, wtffff.... Move around, enjoy, sing, clap!!

    Exactly!!! I noticed this only too much at the U2 show. Way too quiet crowd - given it was a Wednesday night they may have been tired but you know...
  7. Hi all ive been putting it off for ages but its finally time to rip all my cds to my new pc. I use itunes and want to put some songs on my iphone too. wat is the best way to rip it to itunes so that i get the best quality possible? i dunt mind if it takes up heaps of HDD space cuz ive got plenty of room.

    I'm looking at the import settings now theres a choice for "import using" and then "setting", so which should i chose for each.
    any help would be greatly appreciated
  8. MP3, 192kbps, 44.100kHz stereo (joint) seems to be the best option.

    Ripping CDs is a pain in the arse - it takes forever to tag them afterwards too.


  9. i phone is 16gb but im only gona put a couple of albums on their and rotate them every few weeks, most of my listening is done on my pc

    I have about 200 albums on mine and on average at least 5-6 songs are over six minutes (out of 12 or 13), so this takes me to about 120MB an album.

  11. If you rip them with Windows Media Player it automatically recovers media info from the web and auto-tags your files. I never tag CD-rippped files except for the cover art and some details (I'm picky about composers, etc).

    I'd have thought Apple Lossless would have been a better quality option and you can set iTunes to retrieve the song info/track names for you, which makes ripping CDs much quicker and less painful.
