Ok, first you're dismissive of the thread because it has a photo in it. Not an uncommon practice here, to post photos as a means providing extra information to the forum. What if the OP was just a verbal description of the C12 in question? Folks surely would have asked for pix.drewbass wrote:wow. you have to ask yourselves why this makes you so angry, and why it concerns you so much. it's a photo. on a website. that's it.
Now, you're asking why we're all "mad". I'm not sure if anyone is "angry", per se. I'm seeing a blend of annoyed/amused.
And then we have the brickwall semantics of "its just a photo". Right. Its a photo of an expensive mic that seems to to be badly out of position. Which has inspired a conversation about what possible reasons there could be for the placement of the mic. I liked signorMars' bit about Bono, personally. Seriously, didn't you think that was funny? I know my day got a little brighter when I read it. C'mon, tell me you didn't chuckle when you read it.
Or is this whole thread tearing you up on the inside? Its just a photo, right? You don't have any reason to be emotionally attached to the subject of this particular studio, do you?
