Queenie:
yeah?
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:30:28 pm)
Chewing Wax:
I thought the surround was gimmicky in the actual concert too. Ooooh Synthesizers behind my head. Oooh.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:30:38 pm)
Chewing Wax:
I'm from the old school. Music should be in front of me.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:30:59 pm)
Queenie:
I love it. My Psychedelic Furs DVD is also in surround and it sounds fucking awesome. Then I stick in Storefront and I have to crank it up and it sounds like utter crap.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:31:19 pm)
Queenie:
The fact is though when you're at a concert the music is coming at you from all directions.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:31:57 pm)
Chewing Wax:
That's just the recording. It has nothing to do with it being surround or not.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:32:15 pm)
Chewing Wax:
I figured the music was coming out of those big speakers on the stage.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:32:41 pm)
Cushca:
Why don't you just fuck each other in stereo and get it over with?
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:32:59 pm)
Cushca:
Did I type that or just think it?
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:33:40 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Seriously. How is the music coming at me from all directions? I need that explained.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:33:45 pm)
Queenie:
Because it's bouncing off the walls of the concert hall and coming back at you every which way.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:35:05 pm)
Cushca:
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES BEGIN A CONVERSATION ABOUT ACOUSTICS.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:35:07 pm)
Cushca:
Too late.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:35:15 pm)
Chewing Wax:
I see. So the surround mimicks the effect of the acoustics of the concert hall. That makes sense.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:35:54 pm)
Cushca:
AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHH.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:36:14 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Can it mimick the effects of surround sound in a concert hall surrounding you again with the bounceback and then cancelling the signal out because the waves are opposed to each other?
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:36:45 pm)
Cushca:
That's it. I'm off.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:37:21 pm)
Decoy:
Standing waves are cool.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:37:31 pm)
Queenie:
Well, a concert like the Steely Dan one is deliberately made to sound as though you're sitting on Fagan's lap, with the horns over your left shoulder, back up singers over your right, Becker front left, etc, which is pretty much nothing like a real concert. But the seperation is fantastic and it allows you to hear it in a way that you never would. Unless Fagan did let you sit on his lap. But concert DVDs like my Furs one or Ken's Sheryl Crow doesn't have that separation, but rather more simulate a real concert situation.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:37:50 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Gimicky.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:38:36 pm)
Queenie:
Perhaps. But no less pleasurable for me.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:38:54 pm)
Chewing Wax:
I don't want to be sitting on Fagan's lap.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:38:54 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Hitchock is above that gayness.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:39:15 pm)
Queenie:
Either way, you can't argue with the fact that the Storefront DVD sounds like complete crap.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:39:19 pm)
Queenie:
I would sit on either of their laps.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:39:36 pm)
Chewing Wax:
You've chased Cushca away.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:39:41 pm)
Queenie:
But wouldn't you agree that putting the concert in surround, without the gimmicky seperation, is a good idea?
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:40:14 pm)
Queenie:
Sorry. I didn't know she had a thing about acoustics.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:40:36 pm)
Mr Vedder:
I hereby serve you with a notice to stop pissing off my wife by talking about acoustics and surround sound and the like. I'm going home to have lots of sex with her now. Your co-operation is appreciated.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:40:40 pm)
Chewing Wax:
No I wouldn't.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:40:42 pm)
Queenie:
Why not?
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:41:19 pm)
Chewing Wax:
The stereo can fucking bounce off the walls itself.
(Fri Feb 22, 2002 - 12:41:19 pm)
Chewing Wax:
I want my music in two pure channels of love.
