From: Peter Min <pete_min@yahoo.com> Subject: Schoeps CMXY4V/LunatecV2/Monster Mic Cables(made by Oade Brothers)/etc for sale Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2007 10:14:25 -0800 (PST) Hello Dat-heads, I was very active in this forum/mailing list (my old email was like pkmin@rsc.rockwell.com or something like that)from about 96-01 and have not taped since. I have a bunch of gear for sale and based on the scarcity of postings here, this no longer seems to be where too many"concert tapers" hang(back then there was like a digest a day with 20 posts). I also noticed that the forum the Oades (Oade Brothers HiFi in Georgia - Jim, and Doug)used to have is also gone. Where the heck has everyone gone? I have the following for sale and would prefer it go to a "dat-head" type person who will use it to archive shows. Rather than put it on ebay. Plus I think there will be a bigger target audience somewhere with "dat-head types"other than ebay (not to mention ebay would take a "big cut"). At any rate heres what I have (I have numerous pictures and receipts of the Schoeps and Lunatec which I will gladly email you). Everything is in excellent condition and works great. Schoeps CMXY4V mic (2 rotatable 4V capsules in a "coincident" arrangement)with Schoeps shock mount A20S and windscreen. Awesome awesome mic! Makes great concert recordings. Grace Designs Lunatec V2 preamp/power supply with Oade BP1 charger and 3 Oade batteries (each will power for 12-15 hours...for you festival tapers this is perfect). The preamp is sweet and has numerous possibilies for bass roll-offs (6 or 12 db/octave, 50, 75, 100, 125 Hz or something like that)as well as other features. PSC (Professional Sound Corporation)48V phantom Box (the basic one, no low pass filters, just 48V phantom, has belt clip) Monster M1000 mic cables(pair) from the Oades = 13.5 ft. I also have a pair of Radio Shack 33-3007 mics with a pair of mic clamps (this was my first pair of mics, taped Ben Harper 5-17-97 and Burning Spear 8-18-96, Zero Condes Lumber 8-3-97 with these, all GR8 recordings (but no they're no Schoeps LOL). Prices? How about $2250 for all the Schoeps stuff(thats 1/2 price and as you know Schoeps doesn't discount- super deal IMO) Grace with All the power- $975 Cables- $95 RS mics and clamps - $90 PSC Phantom Box-$85 I think the above prices are extremely fair and a GR8 deal. Never had a single problem with anything, it all works great (recently tested just to confirm)and has been stored with care. Also please let me know if you know of other better places to post this, I have been out of "the loop" for like 5+ years and am not sure where all the "dead-head types" are hanging on the www. Please email pete_min@yahoo.com for pictures, ?'s, etc. I don't remember too many people from here, but do remember Seth Breidbart and a few others who I used to trade with(Duncan Oldham, John Procopio, and in looking over some of the recent digests, there are some names I recognize from 6-10 years ago etc). At any rate, not even sure if many of the "old timers" still hang here but hope everyone is doing well. I had a great time on here back in the day and even more fun taping shows. But I'm going back to school to be a teacher and need some $$ to pay tuition. Thanks and keep on archiving those shows! Pete Min (please pass this info on to any friends, thanks) ps also for columbus ohio folks, tape the spikedrivers (thespikedrivers.com). They are the best "jam band" in columbus, in my opinion. I'm pretty sure they would be cool with taping. Steve Sweeney in the band is also in Ekoostic Hookah which some of you have probably heard of. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Cheap talk?

From: "john e. bogus" <bogusisme@surfbest.net> Subject: new Hidden Hand tour, please tape! Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2007 15:21:47 -0600 Warning! No jamband, bluegrass, or jazz content is contained in this post. If you do not like good old fashioned kickass rock and roll, please feel free to scroll to the next post....on the second thought, this list has been so sparse lately that this might be the only post in the digest....did everyone here fall asleep? Well, here's a good swift kick for ya.... The Hidden Hand is about to finally tour the US again. This looks like the most extensive US tour that they've done yet. Tapers are sorely needed for these shows, this is probably one of the most undertaped bands of all time. Turnout from tapers has been dismal on the last couple tours, with only one or two shows taped on the entire tour....so here is the chance to redeem yourself! Audience taping is absolutely allowed, both audio and video. Soundboard access is venue-dependent. For those of you who have not been paying attention to my posts here in the past or have otherwise not yet had a chance to hear this excellent band, a good description of them is a cross between Black Sabbath and Motorhead....imagine Tony Iommi and Lemmy together on the same stage....everyone who I've turned on to this band has thought they were great, hopefully a few of those people here on DATheads will step up to the plate and second my recommendation or better yet, get out there and tape a show or two. This is probably one of the best bands you can see in the $8-15 range in small intimate venues....for this style of music, it sure beats paying $60 or more for a ticket, $9 for a beer, and getting stuck with reserved seating in the back of the arena! Unfortunately, the band did not post the dates on their website (and thus making it necessary to post the dates themselves instead of a link....sorry 'bout that!), but thanks to another clued-in fan, here are the dates.... Jan 23 2007 Soap Box Wilmington, North Carolina Jan 24 2007 The Jinx Savannah, Georgia Jan 25 2007 The Bottletree Birmingham, Alabama Jan 26 2007 Springwater Nashville, Tennessee Jan 27 2007 Downtown Music Little Rock, Arkansas Jan 29 2007 Emos Austin, Texas Jan 31 2007 Launch Pad Albuquerque, New Mexico Feb 1 2007 tba Phoenix, Arizona Feb 2 2007 Spaceland Los Angeles, California Feb 3 2007 12 Galaxies San Francisco, California Feb 4 2007 Berbati's Pan Portland, Oregon Feb 5 2007 Chop Suey Seattle, Washington Feb 7 2007 HiDive Denver, Colorado Feb 8 2007 Mikes Tavern Kansas City, Missouri Feb 9 2007 Turf Club St.Paul, Minnesota Feb 10 2007 Empty Bottle Chicago, Illinois Feb 11 2007 Ravari Room Columbus, Ohio Feb 13 2007 Europa Brooklyn, New York Feb 14 2007 Midway New York CIty, New York ......anyone else taping on this tour, please get in touch! I've already heard from one taper on the west coast as I write this, you know who you are....thanks!! Yours Truly, john e. bogus
