High End Validation


Nice story (to me anyway)…

Had a pizza delivered today before the Lakers game. Latino guy in his late twenties. He’s been working at the pizza store for several years.

The stereo was playing. A solo acoustic piano piece on Paradise Radio.com.

“Nice music”, he smiled.

“Thanks”, I said also smiling.

“Is that a real piano…or the radio...?”, he asked.

“It’s the stereo”, I told him. Validation, I thought to myself.

“I like Beethoven”, he grinned.

The sun was setting on a beautiful Southern California evening.

Yikes. I really needed to edit the post above. Sorry for the confusing syntax.
I say take a pat on the back when you can.

Ohlala, I imagine many of us can take a pat on the back. Sometimes it takes a fresh set of ears to help us realize our achievement.
What a great thread Tvad. The occasional nice comment is refreshing. My in-laws and kids think I'm nuts.
''I am not forgetting. I am criticising your behaviour'' - Metralla

Looking back on many of your previous ''contributions'' you seem to have a certain pattern of criticizing behaviours which seem to you more important than discussing actual audiophile experiences, music, or gear.

Fair enough if it floats your boat.
