DON'T HAVE ANY BOOTLEGS TO TRADE? BUY ME A NEW DVD,
A PS2 GAME, OR SOMETHING ELSE FROM THIS LIST OF
OTHER THINGS YOU CAN TRADE WITH

ATTENTION TAPERS:
Do you record shows yourself when you attend them?
I myself have not done so, but if you do, you may find the following web site useful....

It seems to have lots of technical information (way above my head!) about
microphones, and to be a source for buying high quality equipment.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys collecting music bootlegs or has any interest in learning more about them! This is an extremely detailed and comprehensive "inside view" of the methods, actions, and thought processes of the people behind most of the bootlegs made for the first several years of this phenomenon's history. I couldn't put it down.
