Analog girl...?

I tried to switch on my father's record player.. I couln't make it, it's NOT analog one and I couln't find the turn-on button from anywhere. There was only the speed change and the needle up-and-down button..or maybe I'm just stupid. O_O

Anyway, now it's our autumn holiday for 5 days. Then, after two weeks we're going to London.. really, only 14 days anymore.. Can't wait 'till 26th!

I've spent most of my time on Twitter.. Amazing how much tere's really going on all the time. I'm actually proud of that I heard the new Rolling Stones single almost right after it was released. Yep, Rolling Stones are making new music!! Check this out:

 
 
I've been following the stop of the badger cull -petition project and I was so happy when Mr. Brian May came on Twitter (:
I followed the Greenpeace stresstests to the Swedish nuclear plants and I was shocked about the results. Really; 50 people can just go to the area and nobody notices it! And two men could stay in the are over 35 hours and nobody found them! It's scary to think how terrorists or whoever could go and sabotage the machinery there without nobody noticing. That's a huge security risk.
 
For the first time, it's possible to vote for Rock N' Roll Hall Of Fame nominees! Among others, there are Rush and Deep Purple.. You can vote here: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/vote-for-the-2013-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-inductees-20121004 
 
 

Eddie Van Halen was chosen the best guitarist on Earth in the poll of GuitarWorld magazine.. well, that was oddest poll ever. I mean, Eddie is GREAT, it would be wrong to say that he can't play beecause his technique is amazing, but the best ever guitar player? No, he is not. Eddie's idol is Eric Clapton, so with my logic, Eric Clapton should be chosen then.. well, I don't know. I think I'm going to write my own top guitarists list.

 It was John Lennon's birthday 3 days ago. Weird to think he'd be 72 now..
And Andy McCoy turned 50 yesterday.. are they old or am I just too young? I'm too young.

Back to the analog things.. I have no idea how CD player actually works :D I started to think about this yesterday, and realized I really don't know. I have one old (from 70's) Connoisseur record player, and that one I can use. And I would never ever record music with computer, it sound too.. you know.. I mean I wouldn't download the tape to computer and then edit with computer.. that sound too artificial. For example, you can't record blues that way, because then it would loose it's blues into the jungle of data and kBs and mBs.. and I hate that. Music must be music.

Happy holidays (or at lest happy weekend) to all of you!

PS. If you don't know this yet, I don't know have I ever mentioned but you can find me on Twitter by the name @Clashie.. See ya on Twitter too, then :)
