Various Artists @ 1997 KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas night #2 ** Save Ferris link fixed

LIMITED TIME / LAST TIME


The KROQ "Almost Acoustic" Christmas. I remember when they made the transition to Lollapalooza Junior in 1994 but kept acoustic in the name for whatever stupid reason though 90% of the people attending don't have the first clue the difference an acoustic guitar and an electric one. At least for a few years they would broadcast on the radio so I would have no interest whatsoever in going no matter who was playing. Even Bowie.

To be honest since this what put together piecemeal over time not sure if all the interviews were properly included but I might still have the DAT tape somewhere. And in the days when I was still mastering to CDR I would sometimes fill out the disc with other sets. On top of that, a lot of the folders were erroneously dated as Dec 5 but since Wikipedia is always 100% correct I used that to fix the dates.

Enjoy!

    Incredible, cheers! Btw, was all of the 1998 sets broadcast? I have The Blink-182 and Offspring set in MP3 (although I have 3/4 of the blink set in FLAC). Do they exist in lossless form? Merry Christmas!

      1998 was broadcast but I didn't record any of it for some reason, probably physically at shows. I think it was at the Shrine that year. I have a little here and there piecemeal. After 1999 I don't think they broadcast but started webcasting a few years later.

      Ah I see, awesome! Yeah it was at the Shrine, it had a killer line-up. That sounds right as well, I see no FM recordings after 1999. I see some audience recordings though for certain sets throughout the years, however they vary in quality. I think webcasts began in 2003 - not great quality of course haha. Cheers for the existing recordings anyways though man, great stuff!

Band Of The Month: OASIS **FINAL 2024-10-10 with Round 10**

Seems like the tour excitement is catching on and a few fans have found this page. I don't have anything specifically rare but might as well put it all up. Don't really wanna clear out any of the Google drives so it has to be Pixeldrain. There is a 5GB daily download limit but I probably only have a few days worth. This collection is by no means comprehensive. Share widely if you wish. To be honest going forward - I don't like posting anything I haven't listened to. I lost track and can't really dedicate my life to Oasis right now so it's up to you to point out any flaws, most importantly CD skips from bad rips or too much diginoise - 2 things that make me trash a recording. Anyone have a complete Manchester Dec 1994? The one on Dime is heavily redacted. Can any of the experts recommend anything particularly exciting? Maybe I will make this a monthly thing with a different band. Or not. Like I said, just not feeling it anymore. RIP Douglas Parenteau aka OasisDou...

Anniversary Posts Are Back! (Or are they?) Or is it still back on Friday?

 I cracked open the text file where I copied in all the anniversary dates and decided to listen to some overflow shows I never got to in years past and arrange at least the next few days. As usual only posting stuff that's been listened to and only if I feel like listening. The amount of garbage shows with CD skips and the like is pretty incredible. CD skips? Really? The fact that I am the only one who makes a note of this just confirms most of us are mindlessly feeding the OCD monkey clicking and downloading anything to file away in case they find a cure for death and want something to listen to in 500 years. That and more than 3 bursts of DAT diginoise gets the recording deemed useless and the folder automatically deleted. Doubt I am resurrecting the method for good and definitely not redoing anything. If anything this might signal me demoting myself to passive listener. In the meantime, enjoy and reshare. More transfers on Friday. I did go to the first show of 2025 Friday though...
