just watched bbchris's video - sexy/ hot/ hong/ kong rock! Go Girl's!

I guess i can live down that blurb (thanks) - I've got some hard rock songs I'd like you to check out but i don't know how to convert my aiff's to mp3's i'll keep investigating

I'm glad you like our time it's very triple a easy listening - check out Eye In The Pyramid, Or Rock Harder, for a harder edge. It's fun talking to you guys and exploring your music, your sites and your smiles - what's up with ronongutiar's page - I can't open it - shandi

Hiya Shandi!

LOL, that page is just a "front" - so it shouldn't open, I'm working on the pages that connect to it. They really need to be updated. For example : pages there about

Chris's group the Sisters Of Sharon , Canadian visual artist Alice Phieu and another Canadian gal, songwriter-musician Emilie Wapnick

and others need new info, new/correct links and such updated for 2004! (Like any link to an artist's mp3.com page goes nowhere since mp3.com folded in December)

You have some songs in aiff format, Shandi? Do you use a Mac PC - instead of Windows - by any chance?

Ron

Wow! Thanks Shandi for watching the Sisters of Sharon's video!! :merci

Hope you like your underblurb!!! Did you ever get the songs on Thinking Out Loud page to play? They are my current band so I'm really curious to what you think. Plus the guys would be really stoked to hear you have listened to one of our songs!!! :banana

Well, we might have a Mac user here in the gang who is knowledgable re: aiff to mp3 converting, Shandi, and knows how to best go about it. But I'm thinking it's mostly Windows and maybe some Linux users hereabouts, and I believe the bulk of the converting is back/forth between the Windows .wav format and MP3.

Been a very long time since I've touched a Mac keyboard!

Shandi, now that I think of it, I do know someone who does alot of recording & converting to mp3s using a Mac. I'd be happy to get any helpful ideas on how to go about it and see that it's passed along to you. I know what you mean about upgrading, especially if it's just for one area!

Shandi... WHO??? :me

Oh well, first off it is not true that you need all new stuff to upgrade to MacOSX. OSX comes with a so called "9 classic mode", where you are able to run programs intended for MacOS 9 versions. You simply cannot run version 9 programs under the OSX shell and vice versa. As long as we are only talking about internet and E-Mail, you don't have to 'fear' OSX. Everything comes preinstalled and flawlessly working. Of course things get complicated if you have audio-editing programs running on your version 9 machine.

Regarding your aiff-to-mp3 problem, you can download the BladeENC encoder for free. It does what you need.

So... for these tips you now listen to my latest online collaboration HAHAHAHA!

(OF COURSE you don't have to, but it would be interesting to hear your opinion. The track was done entirely over the Internet, without anybody having met at all for that recording)

That blade encoder for MacOS 7.5.3 or later looks like it should work fine for Shandi !

I always figured you were probably a Linux guy, Mike!

Hmmmm..... :hat

Shandi, if for some reason it doesn't do the job, just post again - as you can see we have some smart & experienced peeps around here who exchange problems & solutions!

Shandi! Thank you for getting Stranger to play. I guess its because you are on a Mac that the sites would give you problems. Yes we are in Hong Kong. I'm a Hong Kong girl! :banana

Have you ever visited here?

thanks for that free software - I've down loaded it - lets see if I can figure out how to use it.

I CAN'T BELIEVE "I BELIEVE" KICK ASS GUITAR! nice groove, Strong singer, what can i say, congrats. All via the Internet? - that's hard for me to imagine- you swapped files then recorded with pro tools? - how is the fidelity off the computer? I am recording right now in a very funky studio (so funky you have to pee outside) I'm not kidding - It's a nice little studio though and inexpensive "because of the bathroom problem" he has all the avalon digital pro tools stuff. I need a whistle solo - I know a great whistler in New York - your giving me ideas! I send him the track - he records the whistle - i don't know sounds impossible. You guys did a great job. great collaboration. I could use a kiss ass guitar too!

No I havn't been to Hong Kong would love too. I think it's great that "Stranger" is in the top 20 of that independent music site - you guys really seem to have it goin' on "tech wise" and "music wise". It's so fun to be comunicating with people all over the world. I'm glad I found you and that you've welcomed me thanks

Sounds like you're being inspired by the possibilities of online work. And doesn't Mike Burn play mean guitar?

And we always welcome talent to this board! :banana
