Yeah, the Arena was/is a smaller venue on the Seattle Center location - I think it seats 5000 for hockey, etc. The big shows - Beatles, Stones, Who, Yes, Zeppelin, CSNY - were at the Seattle Center Coliseum.

Jimi Hendrix played at the Center Arena in 1968 and the Coliseum in 1969. Wish I'd been older and had caught one of those shows.

Now the "Hendrix museum" aka Experience Music Project is right there at Seattle Center.

I remember Key Arena when I was at Seattle Center in 1992 (MC Hammer was to play at the Paramount the day after the convention at the Downtown Sheraton ended. I remember walking up and down the route of the WTO riot (seven years prior), a really nice small grocery (not a convenience store, really) and a LOT of emergency vehicles always racing around, especially past The Bon Marché.

I suppose it's modern architecture but it looks like an LSD trip. Maybe that's appropriate.

Is that a 2M bronze on that Pioneer? How well do you like it? I'm still using a Super OM (30), really like the Ortofon sound.

Nah its a Red, my go to cart for whatever vinyl. I have a Blue as well. Blue is great. Also have an OM20. Dont like it though. Maybe I need a new stylus for it. I got it used.

Is the Super OM30 a Shibata?

Ya know, after comparing the OM10 and the AT440MLa, I have to admit that the ortofon has a warmness that the 440 does not, however the 440 excels in inner groove tracking, treble response and separation, the bass isn't too bad either, overall a brilliant cart. I'd still be interested in trying an OM40 and V15 Type 3 with JICO SAS Stylus one day.

My Entry Level Pioneer SPL-110 does not seem to have a height adjustment for the arm so its a little out using the Ort cartridge, I'm going to have to put the Signet MR5.0 Basic cart on that once a new stylus ($40) is ordered, an outstanding cart for the price. The Stylus on the OM10 seem to last a long time, I use mine to play less than perfect records on the Pioneer at the moment. The 440 stays on the Thorens 160 Super and I love the sound that comes from that, can't beat that cart for the price. Replacement Microline Stylus is around $180.

IThe Bon would be on 3rd Ave downtown I think? It's an interesting area with the mix of business folks and winos.

Yep I think the building looks that way by design.

"In 1969 a screaming, reverberating rendition of the Star Spangled Banner by Jimi Hendrix seemed to herald an end to innocence. His resonant lyric "Are you experienced?" is now recalled in the name of software billionaire Paul G. Allen's Experience Music Project. Hendrix would have appreciated the design approach to Seattle's new museum of pop music.

"Architect Frank O. Gehry has made a career out of bending vertical and horizontal lines of building construction into something defiant and sometimes poetic. With Seattle's EMP, opened just over a week before the Fourth of July, he has met his perfect client in Allen and his metaphorical match in rock-'n'-roll. The resulting architecture is a unique performance and a new landmark on the edge of the Seattle Center." — Clair Enlow, "Frank Gehry Rock Temple", in ArchitectureWeek No. 9, 2000.0712
