Are you saying that you, a complete nobody, has made the regulars here feel more important just because you signed up?

If so, now that your work is done and we supposedly feel more important, can you all leave?

[Hanys]

Um.. Not really. What I'm saying is that a better way to utilize your gift of being able to analyse very complicated concepts is to get into economy. In such field, you could actually cause some damage.

Hey! Steve! Is me, Devin. CIAO STEVE ALBINI! Is first time post with new handle! Because old time handle, handle DevinDixon, I forget her password! Also have new e-mail address! Also, never post much anyway. So sorry, twoplustwo gamboolers for whom I respect and fear at poker tables and casino buffets! You are some interneters and poker players!

Also, Steve! My great friend! So generous with time and knowledge of all things music and electrical! So nice to do for some internetters and one time nerds who only come by for the insult or to solicit attention to band! So nice to do! And to use bully pulpit and nerd-influence to spread the Good News of the Tuesday Game! So great! Grazie, Steve!

Now, Steve, a few things:

1. Am so pleased to be thought of as maybe a "country mile" best in the NLHE. So nice! But: You wrong. I don't think anybody at game is "country-mile" better than anybody else. Even Scott, who travel so fast and far down Donky Road, occasionally emerges on the other side of Planet Pokers looking like Greg Raymer. Sean, who you say, has you "clocked", has me pretty much on my heels too! Also every other player on Tuesday! He is pretty good player with his crapassing and big-bets and game-theory-perfect bluffing frequency!

2. That one guy who come to game, that 2+2 guy, he's pretty good! And pretty nice guy! This is bad! What if he come back? And then to keep coming back? Then, maybe I actually have to stay sober for game and think about poker and the implied pot-odds, and value-bets, and, well, poker! Mama mia!

3. When you gonna grow another moustache?

4. Am I fat? Please explain in strangely arousing Turkish accent.

5. Why I type like this?

Okay! Is all? Tuesday Hooray!

Hello Big Blacknipples! I love poker! But I hate big nipples! And I especially despise the black ones! I hate sour milk! And you know that the dead ones always give a suck!

I wanted to talk to someone famoues!! Tonight! And then i found them! Tonight! Stevie! The page said he was here, replying the questions about music! So I came! Here! Tonight! I said to myself "who the hell is Stevie?!" And then I knew! I love music! And poker, too!! And "Steve Albini" was written on the back of the Surfer Rosa album! Right beneath that recorded by! You know, that brutally honestly modest one! And then I thought to myself "is he even famous enough? What else did he only record?" And then I knew! Bush! But was that famous enough? What else did he record? Well.. Well, whatever.. Nevermind! So I came anyway! Micro celebrity it said! I like even nano celebrities! I like even HIV!

First pages very ok! In a forum about music! But then, Stevie a [censored]! But that's ok, Stevie not [censored], Stevie pretending to be like everybody else! Good Stevie! Then poker players complaining about purely music fans asking Stevie! Stevie complaining too! It's about music! So what?! Stevie a hypocrite! Nice of Stevie! Stevie got poker friends! They play poker! This not about music! This about poker!

I wish I could play poker with Stevie and his donkeys! But donkeys bad! Donkeys could point at me and tell Stevie "see that guy? might be a closet music fan!"

And Stevie might drink a beer! And smoke a bowl! And sniff a coke! And do an acid! And, god almighty, smell a bit of brown! And then, Stevie could, after those long 26 years, all of a sudden start to act like a prick and make a decent record he would only record as well! Me not likey!! Me not at the poker game! Me not asking about music! Me not talking to famous people! Me only listening to highly famous people! Me left! Me right! Right?!

Hello Steve.

In a Joanna Newsom article from the January issue of Performer magazine it states:

'...She went and recorded with Steve Albini, famed producer of neo-folk geniuses Jawbreaker and Cheap Trick. Well, he has also with Newsom's tourmate Smog. "I had always heard that Steve Albini was the best at accurately recording acoustic instruments and making them sound like exactly what they are," she explains. He helped her create the "rough and stark and exposed and grounded" sound she says she was looking for - and invented some unorthodox ways of micing the harp, which shall henceforth remain a mystery. "I don't think I should talk about them because I kind of feel like they're his intellectual property," she says.'

Now speaking to the man himself, is this mystery technique something you'd be willing to expand upon a little bit? Does it involve a multitude of intricately arranged microphones or something along those lines?

Thanks.
