Knutz and Boltz Stuff
Something new for 2020 – this section will feature commentary on random encounters with the audiophile community. Little stuff that pops into my head that hasn’t been fully processed for prime time but needs to be noted for posterity. Or noted for some future uptaking that I haven’t the time for at the present. Or I just need to blow off some steam and rant publically like a madman on the steps of Grand Central.
I have a useful system of note-taking for when I attend shows or events, I drop everything into one of three categories, which I’ll use in the same way here. Then when some recollection of a past event comes to mind, I have a pretty good idea where to find my notes on it.
And so it begins.
(Hint – Sometimes I’m genuinely annoyed by things that are too damn good for their own good.
