just shortly cause many people already mailed me or made a forum post.

I know there's a problem with the download button for whole albums. It sometimes disappears when the album name is pretty long or you are running on small resolutions.

I'm still working on that ... but it may take some time cause mine's short currently

And in the next couple of days we gonna celebrate user no. 100 which is not that bad in only a month I think

have fun

Hi there,

we received our first PayPal Donation last night.
Just wanted to say thank you ...

That's already a third of the monthly costs ;-)

Together with the ads maybe a half ....

Hi,

I changed the default streaming player today. I think this one is quite better.

Also the remaining 2006 shows will be available in the next few days

have fun

I'm currently uploading a bunch of new Shows. Mainly 2006 ones.
Should be available somewhere tomorrow.

I took of the
2006-05-31 The Avalon, New York, NY, USA
Show, because I realized, that this is only a rip of the VH1 Storytellers Broadcasting, which is probably not allowed to share.

Have fun

As suggested yesterday by a user, we now have a PayPal Donate Possibility. Look at the right ... ;-)

I also started a thread for discussing the release of Artworks with the Bootlegs. Any comment is welcome ...
You can find it here:

Currently there's still a problem with viewing the Boots at low resolution monitors ( < 1280 ) . I'm still looking for a solution for that ...

Have a nice day

Finally I did a long planned relaunch of this site and changed to a bigger server. When I'm finished, in the next couple of days every bootleg I personally have, will be online. The years 2000 til 2007 should be almost complete. I only left out the Gorge-Shows because the Box-Sets are still on sale and as far as I know those are not allowed to share.
The older ones (pre 2000) are by far not complete now.
You can stream every Bootleg or DOWNLOAD it as a Zip File. You First have to REGISTER to do so. That is simply to hopefully stop people from needless downloads and to save a bit of traffic.

The Shows are all in MP3 Format though. I know some people don't like this that much, but a collection of this size in FLAC or SHN format is almost impossible to host online.

I collected all these through a lot of years from different sources all over the web and of course from my own official Bootlegs. If there's any show whose originator does not like to have it here: Please drop me a mail and I will remove it immediately.
And if someone comes across a show which he knows of that the band (or management or someone) do not like it to be shared, please state that either.
I do not want to run into legal issues with this site.

THIS IS SIMPLY FROM A FAN TO THE FANS

not more ... not less ...

Another thing which I'm not sure of is the handling of the cover artworks. I'd like to put them on as well cause the whole thing would look a bit nicer.
But I'm also not sure if it's leagal to publish the cover artworks from the official boots.
And what about those covers from for example the old theskyiscrape.com setlist archive?
Or those which where published within unofficial bootleg archives (Thinking of those from thearmyreserve.blogspot.com) ?
Maybe someone can put some clarity into this. Just send me a mail or start a forum thread.


One last word on the google-ads:
This is totally a non-profit site as meantioned earlier. But hosting such a big archive is not that cheap as one will think. So I put on the ads to just get the server financed a little bit. On the old server which was quite a lot cheaper the ads never brought in more than 10% of the costs.

Hopefully I don't have to take off the site as often as I did on the last server but when the traffic gets to big I, of course, will have to. If I exceed my traffic limits the costs are imnense ...

Have Fun

Cheers
