Images hidden in music Posted: 4 months ago by pocksucket
Led Zep, The Beatles, Pink Floyd and Britney Spears may have hidden secret backwards messages in their music, but beardy grinning weirdo music man Richard D James (or rather Aphex Twin) went one further and hid pictures in his music. Presumably just because he's clever enough to do it.
A chap who may or may not go by the name of Bastwood goes one further by finding the things.

Want to own a piece of real estate history Posted: 7 months ago by tigertony
On August 15, 1969, a farmer named Max Yasgur addressed one of largest assemblies ever to gather when he addressed the crowd at the Woodstock Music and Arts Festival in the name of peace, love and music.
Mr. Yasgur, now a cultural icon, allowed 40 acres of his 1,100 acre farm in upstate New York, to be used for Woodstock, thus making the musical and cultural event of the century possible.
For "only" $8,000,000 this historic landmark can be yours!
BTW: Anyone that says they remember being at Woodstock wasn't really there.
