Holy crap this is awesome! Barky is a simple table made from a raw-edged wood round. Rega RB251 arm, Premotec motor, and upgraded glass platter. Poly-sealed and paste waxed. Available from Audio Wood. Yup. Audio Wood pretty much sums it up for me! Peace, Migwell...

Lisa and I got around to hanging a few of my Beatles records on the wall today. We got Rubber Soul, Revolver and Sgt. Pepper up. I need another frame for A Hard Day’s Night and a smaller frame for my Yesterday 45 single. Posted from my Flickr account....

By the late '60s, the Hollywood studio system was crumbling and independent filmmakers were invading drive-ins with a vengeance. Many actors found themselves without studio contracts, and they had to seek work elsewhere. That probably explains how Russ Tamblyn (WEST SIDE STORY, THE HAUNTING) wound u...

Filed under: Arts and Culture, United States, Budget Travel Here at Undiscovered New York, we often find ourselves wondering why our city is so expensive. It's usually the first question from friends and family who come to visit us here in New York, and truthfully, they're kind of right. Want a beer...

With the horrific possibility that to McFly, Lily Allen and Beth Ditto we might soon be welcoming people Googling for Morrissey naked - and with the strict warning that it's Not Safe For Anyone Who Has Recently Eaten - we're compelled to point to Morrissey-Solo's photo of Mozzer and his band nude, s...

I recently visited San Francisco for the first time a few weeks ago, and while there was plenty of cool stuff to see, one place I found especially cool was this storefront my friend and I stumbled upon in the North Beach neighborhood. Judging from the banner on the drum out front, I venture to say t...

When it comes to listening to music, I am one of those old fogies (or snobs, if you prefer) that would much rather listen to vinyl than to cds, mp3s, or anything digital. I find the tone to be richer, the sound to be smoother, and the distortion to be much less. My friend Kevin insists he can hear t...

Hmmm...Microsoft Word Stickers. Now that you've seen it--do you think something like this would be useful (for yourself or for students?) Obviously not as cool as the Commodore 64 stickers but still neat. :) I think these might only be good for hunt-and-peckers, though, and you can always figure out...
