With Brian you just had to be persistent and tolerant of his personality. Luckily there were other guys at the shop who helped break the ice until Brian accepted you into the non nimrod club. I remember Scott Frankland (who recently repaired my Wavelength 300B amp and my Supratek pre) and Chris Mercurio who called me when they got a pair of Verity Fidelio speakers in the shop. There was another guy who's name I just can't remember, he played saxaphone and I ran into him working at the local music store when my girls were in the school band. He sold me a couple of Mullard ECC88's "on the side" for my Sonic Frontiers amp when he worked at the shop. ETA: His name was Scott Barnhill!

The oddest thing about Brian was the fact that he was a trained architect, a graduate of Virginia Tech! He could draw like a fiend. We were remodeling a kitchen at the time and he drew a sketch of the hinges we should ask for on our cabinets.
