Any tapers here?

Post by tbeat03 »

Hi!

Are there any tapers on this board? If yes, what bands have you taped over the years? Any old ones? Did you get some problems taping on some venues?

share your story :)

We have lots of tapers here and I am sure they would love to share their stories. Do you tape? If so what bands have you taped? Thanks!

I do not tape, but love to. For one reason is 'cause where I do live there's no live shows or any of my interest to make me buy a recorder. I'm a member of other boards discussions and some members are tapers, which share their stories and recordings. Also, there are some groups of research that looks for old tapers, tv/radio stations, journalists, social networks on the web to try to grab the best amount of info and/or recordings for some certain shows. It's not an easy task but it gives some results as the time passes by.

I'm also doing a research looking for who taped or know who has taped some of the northwest bands that performed at the 80's/early 90's and some NYC bands from that time.

Thanks!

That does not mean you are free from spyware or virus attacks on your pc no Antivirus program is 100% fullproof that goes the same for spyware programs as well.

I am just letting you know whether you want to believe me or not you could be infected with something regaurdless of what software programs are on your pc that you use for protection.

I know it is your pc so you can do whatever you want to I am just passing the Information along to you : )

Here is a story for you

In 2004 some friends and I had just bought new recording equip for the Metallica show Here in Indy and as we were waiting outside, A very nice looking Lady came up to one of my friends and asked him to "Talk with here for a minute"

As with the rest of us we went Down to White Castle to wait for the doors to open, A half hour later our friend comes back in tears.

Apparently She was giving him a ( sorry to use this wording ) Blow J. When here Friend came up behind Him and Stole our bag with All our Cams.

Needless to say Instead of Taping the Met show, We were at the Police Station filing out a report on the stolen Cams.

So to all Tapers "Don't ever let a friend keep the recording equip, when a Hot chick comes up to them"

Now we can laugh about it, but back then it was a missed chance to tape from 5 angles a hell of a Met show.
