Dieter Meier sighting!
by Casey Griffith 28 Apr '06

28 Apr '06

My first post to the list. Please be kind. Saw Mr. Meier on Tuesday, April 25 in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA at the National Association of Broadcasters conference. He was attending product demonstrations with an unknown companion at an exhibit by American high-tech company, Avid Technology/Digidesign -- http://www.avid.com -- This company makes highly-regarded video/film postproduction systems and audio mixing/mastering systems, so there is dual relevance for Mr. Meier's interest here. He was impeccably dressed, as one would expect. I did not interact, but was definitely upset with myself for not bringing my cameraphone to the event! cgriff

Confirmation of the sighting @ NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) He (Dieter) has a great stake in the company and was supporting the booth and company for the entire show, though only noticed him there a few times. He had quite the crowd around him, especially after they realized who he was. Unfortunately I did not have my camera either.

Wow! that must of been a thrill. Dieter always comments on how Boris is the technician but it seems Dieter has quite an interest himself in the latest and greatest technology .

Re: Nothing is true; Everything Is Permitted

Everyone: Here are two links explaining the fascinating story behind WHY the 1984 Carlos Peron album "Nothing is True, Everything is Permitted" is being reissued at its original speed (LP was recorded to play at 45 RPM) and with a bonus CD "at" 33 RPM. I bought this vinyl way back in 1986, but never knew that playing it at the wrong speed had become a practice among some DJs. Huh. And as for the other CDs in the series, these new bonus tracks are really gonna fill in some gaps. http://www.rykodistribution.com/artist_title.php?artist_id11319&media_id=16… http://www.darklight.co.za/55/musicshop.php?uid=45056x45060&sid=17617f35225… > - "Nothing is true; everything is permitted" (1984) > (double CD - the original album on one CD, and a second CD with the album played at 33 rpm. Someone said that Carlos' site explained why, but I couldn't find anything - anyone have the URL for the appropriate page?
