I didn't doubt you for a moment, well maybe a moment!
Apropos nothing in particular ,why on earth do you persevere with the 'other' forum, they are collectively so stupid why not just cut them loose altogether, I know you founded the forum and it must be vexing to see a complete arse in charge.
Looking forward to the review.

Keith, I believe Amir may be waiting for that Desperate Dealers tribute envelope to arrive before he releases the review? ;)

Speaking of reports, I happened to stop by WBF only to read that everyone is all atwitter about some verbal and almost physical encounter between Jon Valin and Peter Breuninger. Any nasty Axpona gossip report in the works?
Some good inside stuff will surely raise traffic here. :D

No, nothing in the works. The only funny things that I learned is that another group is creating a forum with almost identical name to Myles Astor! Some fireworks should come out of that I am sure.

I liked myles
There is no "Myles Astor". He's a deep fake A.I. pseudonym concocted by a Texas architect/community planner/and: investor in Absolute Multimedia, Inc. (parent of TAS mag in Austin, TX) named David W. Robinson. I suspected this when I saw half of "Astor's" face bearing a strange resemblance to someone passing themselves off as an "audiophile Jazz artist named Jerome Sabbagh". There is no record of a "Myles B. Astor" in the NYC Metro area. Fake LinkedIn (his "headshot" has a giant yellowish/green slash right across his cheek down to his neck!); fake reviews (all due to Robinson's connection to TAS); fake A.I. image processed vids (look closely enough and you can notice how the immediate background behind him always has a subtle pixelated distortion not in the rest of the image as well as; the tell-tale discolored grain to the area of where the original face is "morphed" in with another's).

Anyone, by this point, denying it: is either naive (or, unfortunately) part of the scam itself.
