Design resonates (but noise won't):

"What you'll love about it: The media room that previously served as Gleeson's recording studio, where he recorded artists such as Depeche Mode, Phil Collins and Earth, Wind & Fire.

The room still has some of the original acoustic insulation, and there's an adjacent office with built-in furniture that served as the recording booth."

DBT Week in Review - 4/7/08

I'm working on an additional DBT WIR post for Friday that will showcase many of the fine DBT fans who have been risking whiskey soaking of digital circuitry, memory damaging beer slop, and flung sweat smudging the lens of their very fine SLR cameras in order to capture that perfect shot from The Rock Show.

Fans across the U.S. have been snapping some really awesome photos of the band. Stay tune for the highlights.

Male rock fans likely to vote Republican: survey:

"The survey found women and fans of alternative radio, featuring '80s and '90s rock, tend to be Democratic, while men and classic rockers lean Republican.

Asked about their overall presidential preference, Democrat Barack Obama led the pack with 26 percent support among those planning on voting in the November election."
