From the Fiesta Oyster Bake.
In the background is the sound mixing console I
didn't operate today.
Photos were more important to the band, although I think I should have run the first few songs anyway just to give the hired crew an idea of what rock music is supposed to sound like.
Had a Sony Memory Stick failure today.
The good news is that it doesn't
technically belong to me and has low capacity so I don't really give a shit.
I always format before using a stick that has sat around unused for months, and that's when the error code showed-up.
I'm waiting for Sony-branded 2GB Pro sticks to hit $20--then I'll be all set.
As it is now I can't shoot more than 300 photos before returning to my computer with a case full of memory--a 2GB MSPro will put me past 1000.
I think one is all I need, but spares are required since they won't make such small-capacity ones for very long and 2 gigs is the most my camera was designed to handle. Probably need to buy three at least to ensure my future.
I've been bitten in the ass a few times by last-year's size going on sale then being withdrawn from the market before I had enough of them. Won't pay full price, won't buy inferior brands, still pissed that I paid $35 for a 64mb MS a few years ago when you can get 2gb for that much now.
The camera and computer memory market is a racket.
Every year they double the storage capacity, yet the prices soon fall to where they were before. So they double capacity to get the morons to pay full price again.
