Started off the day going to Salem with Dave and Nick. JoeBuck showed up there but apparently was in a hurry afterwards so didn't really get to talk to him. After that did nothing for a bit, and then decided to make myself a pizza and watched the U2 go Home concert. Ended up getting distracted and chatted with brooke for a while while she got frustrated by the crazy keys on the keyboards over in Sweden. For those who didn't happen to be online at the time she says hi. Anyways, got back to watching the concert. That's probably the best live recordings as far as audio I've heard for a long time. They have a 2ch PCM (which is getting ripped and transcoded to ogg as we speak for portable and office listening), as well as 5.1 DD and DTS tracks (of course I was listening to the better one there :). That's just an awesome concert, and they have a couple bonus tracks too. In case you're wondering, this concert is basically a 20 year anniversary one for the band at the same place as the one back in 1981 and almost to the day. After that did a little more camera research. Then was Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. Decent movie, although I didn't like it as much as the others. Looks like others generally agree with me there too. After that watched Alias which was interesting. After that there was a commercial which wasn't too spectacular except one of the layers in the soundtrack was the music for the Bloodhound Gang's Nothing but Mammals - it caught my ear as something I was definitely not expecting to heard on primetime network TV, even with the lyrics gone. Finished off the evening with a lot more camera research. Yea, that's not a good trend, although I did find some pointers on getting the camera for relatively cheap through BestBuy. Well, gotta love encoding on a decently fast machine. It took longer to rip the stream and pull the audio out than it's taking to encode to ogg which isn't known for it's niceness to the CPU. Well, better get some sleep since tomorrow is back to work.
