    Frenchman Street

    Earlier this year, I made my annual pilgimage to NOLA.

    Bourbon Street is an increasing disappointment. Good to great musicians working their tails off playing through Harman systems run FAR too loud. There were no SPL meters, anywhere. I like it loud, but this was painful.

    Harman swept through the Street a few years back and got nearly all the clubs on some pretty good gear, but it is so dang loud it cannot be enjoyed - not a single club (except Fritzels...). The soundguys are all still pretty cool, and you can have a chat with them, but they are driving things too hard.

    Frenchman Street, on the other hand, is phenomenal. Small, cozy and cool clubs where some REAL talent is circling, with hit-or-miss systems, but what a great experience. Check it out...

    What was your user name in 2000?

    Maybe it would be a good idea to go back and review the forum rules. If I understand correctly we all made an agreement when signing up for this so-called "adult audio oriented" forum....but it's very common to not read the fine print before checking the "I agree" box. Sorry...but I grew up in a household where the chief breadwinner, my late father, was a certified professional contracts administrator...and contracts do matter.

    For crying out loud, it doesn't really say "orientated" does it? I hate that.

    I remember using three that year. asshole, asswipe and asshat. In 2001 I ditched the "begins with A" theme and mixed it up a bit.

    censorship

    One mans trash is another mans quote. Censorship is a difficult issue. This IS an adult forum. I've seen far worse displays on my teenage sons AIM, and that is parentally controlled. Contrary to popular belief, just because your child is in his room on AIM doesn't necessarily make him/her safe. So what has this to do with this forum? Lots. I don't see any chicken porn here, nor do I find the site littered with XXX advertising. Members content is far from offensive. Of course what is offensive to me ( Semi recovering sailor/recovering alcoholic/nursing school student) is not what might be offensive to others.
    I don't see Larry Flint posting here, or Carlin, Richard Pryor or Eddie Murphy.
    Neither do I find the Pope.
    Although I did object to Zilchs mustang advertisement for showing too much Mustang.
    Get a grip folks. This site is alot safer than most.

    And with Morgan's sage advice on always showing more car...

    I think we can see a wide variety of takes on this subject, and rather than censor any of it I'll close it now.
