Hey Slosh. Long time since I checked in around here. I miss it too. I clicked by mistake on the link in my favorites, and my password was still saved. The first post I see is yours, a "Live Comp". "Comping" was what made this place great many moons ago, and introduced me to literally dozens of new bands. I must have over a hundred Rave Rec comps on the shelf from back in the day. And I made and traded a few of my own.

So I'm downloading yours now. Many of the bands are my favs - Lucinda, Decemberists, Andrew Bird, Wilco etc..

Thanks mate, and good to be back here, even if by mistake.

I thought you fell off the earth. Hope all is well with you and yours and that you check in with us once in a blue moon.

Hey, JD. I was thinking of you just a couple weeks ago, as I was cryin' in my beer and watching the Dogs & Vols. Good to see you again, bud.

I'm listening to part one and downloading part 2...amazing

not the download...the fact I'm actually enjoying the music.

thanx

PS> I'm on a cable hookup and it still takes over an hour to download this

Faster than the USPS, though. Yeah, SendSpace's server is dog-slow. YSI used to download in about 15 minutes for 500MB files but now they only allow 100MB uploads (bastardos!)

Well, I listened to Part 1, and it was excellent. However, there was a %#$%#^ing problem with Part 2. It downloaded fine, but won't work. I've got to try it again. I'll kick it off before bed tonight. Thanks Slosh.

Yeah, Chris, I must admit, I enjoyed the win over your Dawgs.

Paul - good to hear from you too. All is well on this end. Life is just busier than ever. I'll try and make it more often than once in a blue moon.

Is Jimbo (JC) still around? And speaking of the old gang, I got an email from ChipB last week. He's doing well - has moved back to VA.

Thanks for the sampler, mate. Haven't been around much for a long while myself.

Listening right now - excellent! Lots of artists that I have been curious about for a long time.

Ah, FLAC!

Hint: say it out loud.

Great comp again, tnx. I'm really liking Andrew Bird's Bowl of Fire, esp. Sweetbreads. Could be an album purchase in my future...

I'm beginning to question my normalcy. I can't get Sweetbreads out of my head. I told my wife to give it a listen to. She got about 30 seconds in and said "This is disturbing" and took the head phones off. Now she's questioning why she married me in the first place...

Tell her, "I can taste what you were thinking. That's the taste of neurons blinking." :)

I tried to sell her on the cleverness of the lyrics with that line. It didn't work. I just don't know why. On a related subject, I hear Thomas Harris has a new novel this year. Any reviews?


currently listening to webcast of The Mysterious Production of Eggs. I likey. This is how I end up spending money... www.andrewbird.net/listen.htm
