sounds about right

When someone tells you something that you hadn't thought of yourself and is spot on.
I think you may have a valid point; sounds about right.

Parry Sound

Absolutely beautiful town located on Georgian Bay. Very small, with a population of only 6500 people, it's very easy to get to know everyone but can also be very hard to find a place to fit in if you like to live outside the box.
For hockey lovers, this is the Home Of Bobby Orr and you will be told that every time you turn around.
Huge tourist destination, preferred by seniors and families with small children that like camping.
The world is full of spectacular locations, but there is only one place you can really have it all: breathtaking vistas, fresh water and warm hospitality are what make Parry Sound the four-seasons playground of the near North.
Nestled on the rugged shores of Georgian Bay, and home to the Charles W. Stockey Centre for the Performing Arts and Bobby Orr Hall of Fame, the Town of Parry Sound is just a short two-hour drive north of the Greater Toronto Area.
Tucked among the 30,000 islands, Parry Sound is adorned by the natural beauty of shoreline hiking trails, and the rugged pink granite of the Canadian Shield. This year-round destination is also home to many festivals, events and attractions.

Sound Booth

the place where the techies do their work. Also the place where the techs go to make out with their girlfriends. No actors, freshmen or lame people are allowed in the booth. The techs are very territorial about their booth and will yell at actors if they find them in there. Some techs are stricter about the rules of the sound booth than others.
Sulaiman normally lets me hang out in the sound booth, but he kicks me out when the other techies come in.

The sounds of silence

One of the three places the words of the prophets can be found.
The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls, and tenement halls, and whispered in the sounds of silence.

The Memphis Sound

The Memphis Sound is the moniker given to the soul sound that came out of Memphis, TN and the region specifically during the late 1960's and 1970's. Taking its influence from the old negro spirituals arising out of the cotton fields and the river, along with a new, distinctive driving drum beat, this new music became easily identifiable as it permeated the airwaves and topped the charts. STAX and HI Records were the local independent labels credited with this new creation.

The Memphis Sound is characterized mainly by soul R&B music with its deep, groovin' bass lines, light guitar work, keys (ranging from wurlitzer to Hammond B-3), and powerful vocals. It was accentuated by the horn sound prevalent in such soul classics as Hold On I'm Comin', Knock On Wood, Proud Mary, and others.

More recently, The Memphis Sound name has been utilized for band names, company names, and more generally, simply to describe the glory days of Memphis Music. The Memphis Sound Drum and Bugle Corp, est. 2002, was crowned National Champion in 2007, but had moved to Texas and become defunct by 2010. The Memphis Sound band, created in 1996, lauds the best musicians, vocalists, and production in the region, performing ove 80 events annually. Memphis Sound Entertainment, est. circa 1993, is a full service Music and Entertainment Company located in Memphis, Tennessee. The company produces major concerts and private events throughout the United States.
The Memphis Sound: Soul Man, Hold On I'm Comin', I'll Take You There, Proud Mary, Knock On Wood, Walkin' The Dog, The Dark End of The Street, Green Onions, etc. From Al Green to Eddie Floyd, Aretha, Tina, Sam & Dave, Isaac Hayes, The Soul Children, Rufus Thomas, and many more, their contributions live on today!

Soundo

This is London slang for asleep.It derives from the phrase "sound asleep" thus "Soundo". I think it is probably unique to London and maybe South east London in particular.
I rang you this afternoon and you never answered the phone? No mate I was soundo!
