The Fredösphere

To recap, it was a fine weekend, starting Thursday night with Chanticleer giving a concert.  I wore my hat with a built-in four-foot diameter parabolic dish to amplify the choir's sound.  Yes, it's bad because it spoils the concert for those sitting behind me, and yes, eventually an arms race will ensue and everyone will get one of these hats thus spoiling concerts for everyone -- but for now, I'm enjoying the benefits of the early adopter, and loving it!

As you can tell, I can't get over the crazy choir amplification scheme I blogged the other day, although I am more convinced than ever it can't work.  Specifically, the parabolic dish really works best if it is on the receiving end.  Darn.  I really want to try this.  But there's no way, right?  Right???
