First post! Hey there...

So, yeah, what's up with you uber-leeching and never seeding back a byte of data there? Stop hitting and running, buddy! Open up and share back. Keep torrents open so people can get them back from you, or this site don't work...

So, playing bootlegs. First, set the mood. Get really drunk. Or stoned. Preferably stoned. But first, hook a computer up to a stereo, or get some good cans (headphones). Put yourself in the mindset that you're going to a show! You're gonna BE there, like it's happening now, again. I use Foobar2000 as my player. Load something cool up, and cast your mind back to the date of the show. It's a little like audio teleportation!

That's how I like to listen to "bootlegs"...
