Hello folks sitting here in dim light of flash lights and kerosene lamps waiting out the scattered michigan power outages due to the high winds.
currently giving the amberola 75 a workout so far 6 hours and counting expected restoration Sunday!!!
Here's hoping the power comes back before I run out of cylinders.

Re: How long can you listen to cylinders
Last year in New Jersey we were without power for six days. We had two things goi g most of the time, the fireplace and a few cylinder players. That was about all we had to do all day, play cylinders. We had a ball and almost hated to see the power come back on. We like to play cylinders all the time but that sure was the most we ever played them.

Ever notice how eerily quiet the background noise is during a power outage.

Re: How long can you listen to cylinders
We are anticipating a strong storm with winds and power outages for Tomorrow (Wednesday) and Thursday.
I have plenty of cylinders, 78's and DD's and Roller Organ Rolls, should keep me busy.

Well it took about 40 hrs but we got the power back just as the temperature went below freezing now we're looking at possible 10 inches of snow and high winds.
