I haven’t made an audio trade for
some time now. Most of
my spare time is currently being consumed by transferring
shows from DAT, mastering, tracking, etc…
If you find a
show listed here that you absolutely can live without, been
lookin’ for years and years, etc… I see what I can do to help
ya out, otherwise you are probably out of luck for now.
Show Ratings:
I don’t
have all of my shows rated, and remember ratings are subject to personal
opinion,
when/where it was heard, and what it was heard on.
A+ I try to only rate
flawless shows with this, sometimes one minor flaw can’t justify an A-
A in between and A- and A+
A- generally contains a small flaw(s)
Less than
an A-, you are on your own.
Disk Extraction:
I extract
with EAC that is configured
properly. If you are not using EAC, you should.
That setup
can be a bit time consuming, but it is WELL
worth it
Media:
Only trade
on quality media
Labeling Shows:
DO NOT write on the disks you are sending me,
not even in the center. I get way to much
stuff
that I can’t read, or the date is backwards. If we trade on a regular basis,
that could
be a
different story. Some of you folks know
what you are doing :) To label a show
use a
sticky
note or a slip of paper inside the cd sleeve.
Unless you ask specifically, I WILL
write (in
the center) on the disks I am sending you.
I do write very neat and legible.
Outgoing Packages:
Will be sent in a bubble mailer or in a partial bubble mailer inside of
an envelope.
Incoming Packages:
Please use
“healthy” packages, folks. I am all for
recycling but there is a point when
a used
mailer just needs to be thrown out.
Only use STAMPS for return postage, NO METER STRIPS and NO CASH (I’m not your postman!).
If you are
over the pond, we can work something out for postage, no big deal :).
Set Lists and Artwork:
Any
information about a show that I own can be found here on this list, I post
everything
I
have. I do not include a set list or artwork with outgoing packages. Nor do I expect
either of
them to be included in packages headed my way.
I do have some artwork for a
few shows
(very few). One of these days I’ll will get around to marking those shows on
this
list. I will email you the artwork, if possible.
