recent ratdog shows ripped the dead to pieces. if you miss the grateful dead see ratdog for a buzz you won't get from the dead.

No Garcia
No Buzz

I agree, I think all these Dead cover bands are crap, haven't heard a good one yet!

Which Dead ?
The 2004 Dead or the 1993 Dead ?

But still, the music evolves, it must. Some years and line-ups are bound to be better than others.
There were years when the GD simply weren't as hot as others, so why should it be different now ?
Goes with the territory, I think.

i'm tellin' ya carl, ratdog does not suck.
neither does P&F...but especialy not the doggy.  You just dont like jazz...and they have a jazzy sound, so I can understand your distaste for them.

i've already gotten into this conversation once this past week, im stayin out for now

Hey Carl, got to see your Fr-2 last night at stone church.

Looks pretty, but doesn't work too well. You need to pack that thing in a feather pillow or something so the vibrations don't cause the drive to lock up.

Funny how I see your gear at more shows than I see you at.

Jason that is funny! I'm telling you, I am this close to quitting this job & getting a different one. I can't stay out late on a schoolnight anymore b/c I actually have to work now! Screw this, I need a new job
So it was locking up again?? I wonder if it was the same drive or not? I have two & I don't know which one John is using? We may have a problem here?

[carlbeck]

and Nick is right, I guess I don't really get into the spacey jazzy thing except for when the dead did it in the 70's, mostly everything else is just crap, like Ratdogsh*t

Karl,

This is a known issue with these units.  It happens to me too when you are very very close to the sound source like way fob in a bar.  E-mail me at daryan.v.lenz.nv8n@statefarm.com and I will tell you about the solution I came up with that has worked thus far.  Fostex claims it is not abnormal!

Doesn't the PDAudio run on the same drives?  Does it have the same problems handling the vibration?

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

[Daryan]

I don't believe it does have the same issues at all.  I am having a hard time understanding why the issue would be with the fr-2 and not with the pd audio cards.  As I said, I have a temporary solution, though I think another e-mail to fostex is in order.

Daryan

[jpschust]

just post the solution here.

[Mic D]

yeah, why keep it a secret?
