Bruce sat in with Joe Grushecky and the HouseRockers, and Garland Jefferies and Gary US Bonds came out also. Tommy http://db.etree.org/TommyD ------------------------------ From: David Sadowski Subject: re: Ryan Adams Taping Reply-To: dsadowski@ameritech.net Date: Sun, 03 Nov 2002 11:21:17 -0600 Ryan is pro-taping in general (cf. his comments in a recent Denver newspaper article) and sometimes, but now always, allows board access. I understand that a couple of tapers had board access at the ACL Fest (end of September) although they managed to mess up both their tapes somewhat. Here in Chicago I heard there were signs posted at the venue saying that taping was in fact permitted. In the interview I mention Ryan talks about how he grew up with boots (he said he had more Grateful Dead boots than legit releases) and benefited a lot from hearing them, therefore he thinks it would be hypocritical for him to do anything anti-taping... I guess sometimes he allows board taping and sometimes he doesn't. ------------------------------ From: "Chris Black" Subject: Chicago Taper Request - 11/9 Date: Sun, 03 Nov 2002 13:18:00 -0500 Hey All, Blue New World will be playing at the Elbo Room (3871 N. Lincoln Ave - 773-549-5549) on Saturday, 11/9 and I wondered if anyone on this list would be able to attend/tape. I'd be happy to upload to anyone interested shns or mp3s (to make it faster) a copy of a show of theirs from May. You can also listen to tracks from their latest album at bluenewworld.com. If interested, please contact me and I'll do what I can to get you in touch with the band to maybe get you on the list or something like that. Thanks for the help! Chris in DC p.s.

Next to the Dragon, this is the classic. The salient feature of this deck is the auto azimuth, which dynamically monitors the optimum azimuth of the cassette throughout playback. I'll send further photos of the deck if you're interested. Surf by Ebay if you're interested. cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1395426827 Jonathan ------------------------------ From: Eric Angel Subject: physical space (RE : Keller Williams ) Date: Sun, 3 Nov 2002 14:27:13 -0800 On Sunday 03 November 2002 08:50 am, Dan Sisler wrote: > i think this has to do more with ignorance, than tech capabilities. of > recent i have been turned away for the very same reason, the rig is "full" > (?) i look down and see three d-7/8s in a chain.....that is full? i think > we ran 13 D-7s at the '99 philsh shows for gods sakes. but is there a > convincing argument one came make to to taper to allow another deck in > line?? if so, PLEASE LET ME KNOW peace, dan To be honest, a lot of time "full" means that people just don't want to make space for any other equipment. We all know this happens. Oftentimes it's justified, there is only so much space and you don't want 12 people crawling all over your gear to start their decks. Or maybe you are running your rig where you really aren't supposed to, and staff is turning a blind eye as long as you keep it low profile. However, sometimes an overzealous patcher will take it upon themself to cut off the chain (maybe to ensure that they have enough room to work). I think that is lame, and shouldn't happen. If the taper running the rig doesn't ask a patcher to "monitor" things, then IMO the patcher doesn't have any right to tell people they can't patch. Of course things are different if it's reserved seating or if it's your rig, etc. Just my 0.02, Eric ------------------------------ From: Todd Romero Subject: Re: Mini-Me power - caution! - DC PLUGS?? Date: Sun, 3 Nov 2002 18:57:44 -0500 (EST) im interested in knowing more about "the gain changing feature" he said they added in with the new rev. Any idea what that is all about? ps. imo.. i would cut the cord and add a mini-xlr or 4pin if u wanna be compatible with eco-overcharge.
