Just One Quick Note

 
I am planning on how much I want to put in my newest maybe soon or maybe not to be posted status update.

I did make a comment alluding to some life altering crisis in the Iggy post a few weeks back which is now at worst only a Defcon5 inconvenience. Might end up staying where I am with a significant rent increase or might end up without a real home at the level to which I am accustomed but will still be safe and secure wherever I end up. Donations not needed or wanted. But if circumstances disrupted several straight months of massive anniversary posts with lots of new transfers, I am not even reading the repost requests that are still coming in regularly.

But part of the point in putting so much stuff up as fast I can and just moving on is that we can no longer even pretend I am the only one who has it which is why I mostly ignored them without reading.

If there is a dead link for something you absolutely must have, then just please find someone else who has it.

Hopefully I can finish this mystery drive project next year since the goal of doing it all this year has been sidelined. Not seeking assistance at the present time. A second copy of the drive has been left with a trusted associate. Hearing everything as it passes through is my primary goal, you are the secondary beneficiaries. But that could change too with time.

    Whatever it is that is weighing on you, take your time. I don't think anyone here thinks they're anything more than secondary beneficiaries. Health and life go first. Take care

    We are thankful for what you posted already. As the other people have commented, take care of your health and everything else comes second. You said you don't want donations, but if you change your mind, let us know, I'm sure a lot of people would be open to help. Best wishes from Romania!

      Thanks! I am financially secure, somewhat, as long as I am in a "cheap" place but the big tissue is the availability of suitable housing in Los Angeles. Not just a roof over my head but walkable to good grocery stores and public transportation to concerts as well as a spot where I can pretty much play music all the time. Barring that, everything is going into storage and I am just going to bounce and go underground for awhile. But my basic survival and human comfort to levels most people in all human history have been unable to achieve is not at risk. Just this crazy ass lifestyle that lockdown taught me I can live without anyway.

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...

back on Friday

Lots of crashing ticket prices but unfortunately I didn't feel like spending 6 hours on the bus to Inglewood and back so I have been taking it easy this week. And finishing transfers. Same old drill, I will write up the info files Friday morning and post, possibly deleting stuff to make room so if you have been dawdling on anything, grab it now because once it's gone, that's it. None of the stuff I was threatening to do in lieu of staying home and working on tapes ever materialized. Too hot, too complacent, THC burnout, etc.  + + + And again. Since I spent $229.60 on a concert ticket last night I will probably skip Herbie tonight and a bunch of other stuff I had on the calendar but it was so worth it. More time to work on transfers and get stuff up and out though.  Same old thing, if I have any new transfers, I will write up the info and post on Friday. A lot of the stuff I listen to like one or 2 songs at a time, throw down the markers, get bored and move on to something e...

Back On Friday

 I guess this means I will be back on Friday with any new transfers I might have done. Which ain't much.   * * * *    I will be back next Friday with at least the uncompleted projects I was trying to get up the other day. I didn't go to a single show in the last week period. I have a bunch on my calendar but other than the Prima Donna show I bought a ticket for, who knows what I will end up hitting. I just got a text from the dearly neglected saying "we should go see Billie Eilish" but I think she was one and done for me at least until she hits the corndog circuit. I might take her down there, find her a ticket and turn her loose inside like I did for the Foo Fighters Santa Barbara show but not spending "real money" on my ticket. I also notice stuff on the blog disappearing beneath the fold - when you click "more posts" at the bottom of the first page, it cuts out a huge chunk of content. Like 6-10 entries. I tried changing the amount of posts per ...
