I traded cassettes from 1981 to 1993. I stopped trading as I changed gears in my career and saw a change forthcoming in the medium of music. Being eager for some good live music, I came back to trading recently.

Although the cassettes are gone, I have begun to acquire CD-Rs of live music.

I am a responsible trader who enjoys quick turn-arounds. The reason for making the trade is to get some new music. No one likes waiting, wondering, etc. about what is going down. I understand sh*t happens. I will keep you informed about my end of things. I would appreciate it if you would do the same.

Familiarize yourself with the things that will make it move more smoothly

• I only trade CD-R.
• DAO only. If you can’t copy with disc-at-once, then I am not interested.
• Send without cases
• Please, no CD-Rs made from mp3. To each his own, but I prefer no compression having taken place in the digital signal. Which brings up . . . I much prefer shows that will get to me that are solely digital. That generally means recent shows. Yeah, I have some older stuff, but my preference is for the newer.
• I have been recording with Sony and Verbatim CD-Rs lately. Please, no cheapos.
• Please do not send CDs in fiber-packed mailers.
• Do not use staples for any part of the package. Thank you.
• I will include mic info if I have it, I ask for the same in return.
• Do not write on my CDs, I won’t write on yours.
• Please check to make sure all tracks copy before mailing.
• I expect complete shows. Sets that are missing a song or have music out-of-order are not interesting to me. I check set lists versus the databases. I understand some boots do not provide complete shows.
• No 2-for-1, if I have time I’ll do b+p. E-mail and ask.
• If I’m doing a b+p please include stamps and a return mailing label–that will save me time. Please, no cash.
