Shows I Have Taped

A quick note about taping live bands... The bands I record are "taper-friendly", they follow the tradition set forth by the Grateful Dead that live audience recordings are beneficial to the promotion and success of a touring band, especially those who throw a lot of improvisation into their sets (and therefore appreciate having their accomplishments preserved so they can relisten to what they brought forth).

Having said that, if you are with a band and I am inappropriately sharing your musical creations, please email me right away. And I apologize and will not share those recordings in the future. Sincerely.

Likewise, if you are one of the creators and would like the original WAV files, please email me and I will put the files on my website for you to download via a link I will email you.

I do not make money off these recordings, there are no advertisements on this website, and I do not sell the recordings or their presence on this site in any way. I will never sell any live recordings without direct positive agreement with and financial compensation to the artists.

I will eventually put everything on The Internet Archive, however I will probably be somewhat selective on that so it will happen slowly (as I catch up with backlog).

Keep in mind some recordings are better than others for a variety of reasons (the microphones, the placement, the room, me, the soundguy, the amps, etc). Generally, the older the recording, the higher the likelihood it might not be "that great", I have provided samples of each show so you can take a quick listen before downloading. For your reference, the progression of microphones I have used started with the ZoomH4n (internal microphones), then the ZoomH6 for a brief period, then the ZoomH5 (internal mics), then I purchased some good external mics, first the Audio Technica 853 microphones, and then the Golden Age Project FC4 condenser mics, and most recently the Warm Audio WM-84 condenser mics.

Download, listen, share with your friends! and, most importantly, GO SEE THESE BANDS WHEN THEY TOUR NEAR YOU!! And, buy their merchandise! And buy their studio albums -- alot of these bands exhibit different sides of themselves in the studio vs on the road! They are great people and love to get down and have a good time, and a recording can only capture one aspect of a band's performance, so go experience the whole thing for yourself!!
