Pretty much spot on. Phil saddens me though- if he could get himself under
control there is some worth there. he actually has a good brain, it's just
emotionally he is a train wreck.
Contrasted to say- Arny- who is virtually useless, posts wrong info and
argues about it, then just generally shows his ass, Phil is wonderful On
technical issues you can generally believe Phil...he's rarely but sometimes
wrong.
On a tech issue- frankly I would take his word over pretty much anybody
here.
Any kind of business or other issue- and he flames worse than a drag queen
being burned at the stake. One or two words can send him into a name calling
tirade that goes on and on.
I've employed guys like Phil. You can often get very skilled workers at a

Liquidator, it is quite clear that you equate people who are abusive with
people who you feel are authoritative about audio - given your worship of
the two Phil's.
That all said, Phil generally gets things right, when he properly
understands the question, which is not all of the time.

He bears a similarity to Arnii in that he engages in lengthy, nonsensical
flame wars, and will never admit when he's wrong. They are also similar
in their delusional airs of superiority. Based on what they post here, I'd never
hire either one.

Good one. Though, you left out the tourettes symptoms.
Arnii and Allison are the only two here that I will not reply to, or
otherwise engage. Arnii because he simply doesn't know the work, Phil because
he's just too over the top with his unwarranted abusive name-calling.

If I were you Liquid-brain, I'd choose to be shot at by Phil. I served with
the most blood-thirsty (number of kills this millenium and most of the last)
Army in the world. I'm a trained professional killer that qualified well
with two kinds of high-powered automatic rifle and an automatic pistol. The
other weapon I qualified Expert with has pinpoint accuracy at a range of 50

Eh ? Guitarists mate ! They often have ZERO discipline in the volume control
department. However a strategically placed stage monitor can give them a fright
! I still have memories of a particular example from some 35 years ago .....
it was quite funny. Never seen anyone jump quite so fast on stage before or

killfiled and only see his responses when somebody replies to him..that's
just not the case. I could care less about most of his replies. He's just

just in the last few years you've done a lot of "nit picking". Most of the
stuff you and I have had words about wouldn't get you a cup of coffee if you
threw a dollar into the deal.
Arny on the other hand is just constant wrong. I just don't believe for a
minute ANY of his posts. Not the case with you at all. Killfiled you for a
while, took you out a long time a go. On the other hand gave Arny 3 chances

Nah- frankly- you make sense in your posts- I might argue with ya, but I
don't flame people who make sense- or at least attempt not to.

Simple- POSER.

I think it's more a case of wackos finding it necessary to mention
their service, as a way to bolster their perceived credibility. There's
a total wack job in my area who is an habitual writer of letters to
the editor of the local papers. He constantly makes mention of his
status as an ex Marine, even when the topic is totally unrelated.
His pet peeves are immigrants, acceptance of gays, and is a
proponent of book banning in schools. IOW, a total wack job.
Then, there's folks like me. I was drafted in 1968. The US Army
thought I was too much of a "wacko" and let me go. It was all
planned by me, and basically an act. But, I managed to outsmart
them, and avoid a trip to SE Asia. So, it doesn't bother me if they
considered me a wacko. I saw most of them as such.

Wow- Wishbone Ash. Loved them. Doubt they remember playing the Agora in
Columbus Ohio, woulda been 72 ish. They had no attitude problems, at least
then. Great guys, great music.
Prolly one of my faves from that part of my life, along with Trapeze. Focus
was a lot of fun, but the manager whisked them in and out, no chance to do
anything other that the show.
The Agora did benefit concerts for local charities on Monday nights.
Trapeze was pretty much stuck here and broke. The Agora had a band house
where they could stay., end unit in what we call a "row house" here in
central US- essentially 4 two story apartments built as a unit, usually
brick.
Managed to convince the charity folks to let them play and give them the
door proceeds.
Sadly, about 150 saw them on Sunday, but Monday we gave them a 1200 crowd
and were able to give them a couple hundred bucks, not a lot but gas was 33
cents then. Different times..I prolly wasn't as cranky back then...

Hey Geoff- if we got off on the wrong foot it's never too late to start
over...not really an "empathy" with Phil...more of a sadness..the old "mind

hasn't shown he has a mind to waste.
I'm basically a decent guy, as long as I have decent neighbors...a neighbor
who likes to throw trash in the street would hate me..Arny hates me cause he
like to throw trash in the group, so I reciprocate. All he has to do is back
up, quit blustering and posting about capabilities he doesn't have.
He'll never do it.
So I treat him like the joke he is-

reality check please.
Hope you read the other thread- mentioned we got started off wrong.
One issue is on the net you see only text, not the other person's body
language, so misunderstandings are rampant. If I took what you said
incorrectly, an official apology.
Anytime you want we can wipe the slate and start over.
No I didn't search you actually- don't recall talking to you much in the

I guess I'm thinking more of someone 'on my team' as in someone in a musical
group, or hired to work for/or with me on a project. Where as you might be
thinking as a contractor, you're gonna deal with a lot of questionable
people, at least ego or attitude wise. Sure, I come across that all the
time, I was just thinking for the people one hires or teams up with, given a
choice I'll take the less talented person if they've got a better attitude,
over the hot shot with the attitude any day. As in most jobs, raw talent
is great but perspiration is a huge factor in success, so the hard working
average talent is gonna blow away the lazy natural talent every time. Unless
you can find both in one person, and still afford them that is.

Lots of hard working jerks out there...just depends on your
definition...some people don't like those who waste their time-some don't
like those that cost them money...I don't like either of those types
regardless of how nice they are..
In a diplomatic, being a slimy weasel is knda OK. In the treasurer of your
country, not so good.
Personally a few hundred assholes in government who scream bloody murder
about wasteful spending would be a good thing.
If you like science fiction, try to find a short story titled "Cordle to
Onion to Carrot" by Robert Sheckley. Circa late 60's. If I can locate it
I'll gladly email it to you..
Might give you an idea where I stand.
Of course, with Krooger and His Nukes (sounds like a punk band) it might be
good to know where I stand so you aren't close by.

IOW Steve, you lied because you were afraid of something that about a

I set up and babysat the system, and engineered the support act.
They have their own engineer, who is very capable tho I suspect he has
some upper range hearing loss as he gets a very glassy sound on the
vocals and doesn't seem to notice squeals of very high frequency feedback.
In my opinion the band were too loud on stage, something they didnt
realise themselves until I pointed it out to them later.
Perfomance wise, they are better now than they've ever been, tho there
are a couple of pretty ropey vids on YouTube!
The foldback system consisted of a HearBack unit for each band member,
fed by cat5 from the Hearback's own head unit which was fed from a
Yamaha digital desk. My multi was connected to their splitter box. The
in-ears were Shure wireless. It all seems to work well, tho i`m a bit
dubious about using computer grade cat5 on stage, I can forsee problems
there.

Ahhhh Trapeze...
They used to play regularly in Blackpool just down the coast from me.
I still play their album 'You are the music, we're just the band' as
preshow music at rock concerts, and audience members still come up
asking "what`s this album! where can we buy it?"
Great band

Probably.
Heard the classic 'sixties version of 'The House of the Rising Sun'?
The original name of 'The Animals' was 'The Alan Price Rhythm and Blues
Combo'...

If anybody's interested.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapeze_(band)
Trapeze were an English rock band formed in March 1969, by vocalist John
Jones and guitarist/keyboardist Terry Rowley (who named the band), with
guitarist Mel Galley, singer/bassist Glenn Hughes, and drummer Dave Holland.
The band had a fairly fluid line up, finally dissolving in 1994, and
although they never found commercial success themselves, several members
went on to join better known bands including Deep Purple, Whitesnake, Judas
Priest and Uriah Heep.

Yup, the conductors of traditional CAT5 are solid 24 gauge in a fairly thin
jacket, not exactly stage-proof.
Stranded CAT5 are readily available, but it is avoided because it costs
more, uses different connectors, and has a shorter effective range.

Yes, we need CAT5 with a sheath like a heavy-duty power cord.
> 10baseT with co-ax would be better...
I don't think that would work because a lot of these CAT-5 applications
aren't 10base anything. They just use the same cable.
> At least you can buy that armoured...
This looks relevant:
http://www.gepco.com/news/pr_prod_2004_0914_ct504hd.htm
"Gepco International, an industry leader in the manufacturing and
distribution of quality professional audio and video cables, introduces the
CT504HD heavy-duty tactical Category 5e cable. An ideal solution for
portable or remote patching of Ethernet networks or digital audio/video
formats utilizing CAT5e type cable, the CT504HD was created to meet the
increased demand of audio/video professionals who need a rugged, reliable,
portable and flexible cable solution."
" The inner jacket of the CT504HD allows the pair to have proper physical
spacing in order to achieve EIA/TIA CAT5 specifications, while the durable
TPE outer jacket protects the cable from physical damage or abuse. In
addition, the CT504HD utilizes stranded 24-gage conductors that enhance the
cable's flexibility and flex-life durability."

Anyone who uses the word 'tactical' about wire isn't getting my business.

I would have to her some of their songs to see if I really knew the music. Must have.
Someone from the band was on one of my Ebay auctions for a Spectra Sonics
compressor. He didn't win but I would have shiped to a US location from what I
remember. That was about 3 years ago.

Or lose customers. NEVER let someone like this have any access to
customers and have a contract that states they owe you their sole if they
ever even hint that they work for you. Talk about destructive advertising!
