The Supreme Topic of Bootlegs

hello gang

this is old, sorry for taking so long, i mostly just forgot about it. audio is untouched - it's decent quality, not amazing - nice if you were there, though!

SUMMERFEST 2012
MILWAUKEE, WI
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29959/Albums/Bootlegs/bff-summerfest2012.zip

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Did you tape this? I was wondering if there was a lossless version available?

~A

i did tape it, and there is a lossless version available, as with all of my previous shows i've recorded and promised lossless versions for. i plan to finish organizing and get all of them together in one place and then unleash them like a pack of wolves. sooner than later. promise!

(i do follow-through eventually- you can thank stef for the fact that this is done finally, she kept poking me about it!)

Fantastic show. The band rocks like crazy!

Thanks for this. I loved this tour and the energy the other 3 brought to Ben's songs.

Listening through now, great recording!  Any chance of a direct download?


Also, in terms of this topic, I'll work on reuploading all the stuff I put up in the coming months to mega.  Mediafire decided to take it down without telling me, let alone flagging it.

Listening through now, great recording!  Any chance of a direct download?

Honestly, probably not. I got this from a torrent of a DVD a number of years ago and only had a hard copy that I burned and forgot about for years. I ripped it in the highest possible quality so I could upload it and forget about it. But if you'd like to keep it, I'd use youtube-dl to grab the video in high quality. For the file size vs. quality, it's more optimal than a VIDEO_TS folder (DVD interlaced video... yuck  ).

Does anybody have a recording of Give Judy My Notice with Guster?

edit: found it!

Now that I have internet that doesn't have a data cap, I've been reuploading all the bootlegs I have to mega.  There may be some repeats of those on wokeup, but I haven't really done a thorough check.

https://mega.nz/#F!VxxBUDiJ!UfWMVcWuXCYMgMH03FJdEQ

The only thing that I can't seem to find on my hard drive at the moment is the Freaking Out DVD, which I thought I had somewhere.  So, if anyone has that, I'd appreciate a reupload.

wow, thanks for your effort! i'll be slowly but surely working on grabbing each. i may have the freaking out DVD - will need to dig around some.

It's been awhile.  My request for the Freaking Out DVD still stands

I haven't been downloading too many of these, particularly the yMusic ones, since the setlist is seemingly the same every time.  A lot of the ones posted previously that I missed myself over the months have already disappeared from DIME.  So, hopefully, one day they'll crop up again, somewhere.
