I Am Gone · September 2007

Yesterday i made the following post on my site:

- A second recording has surfaced from this years Katowice show, and will eventually be made available on this site. However, in accordance with the tapers wishes, this show will NOT be offered in mp3 format, only FLAC.

Only to receive this reply from Yankee GM:

Katowice not offered in mp3?

Thanks for nothing!

My response, of which only the last paragraph or two will concern you:

Did you even bother to read the post?

1. There is already a source for the Katowice show.

2. It is available in mp3 format.

3. There will be no mp3 in accordance with tapers wishes. Without the taper there would be NO new recording whatsoever.

4. What the fuck is stopping you from downloading the FLAC and converting them to mp3 yourself if you are so desperate for them - let me guess - you don't know how - so i should just do it for you?

Well i wasn't born with the knowledge, i had to figure it out.

Maybe instead of being such a fucking cunt you could use that ever so complex webite known as google and learn to do it yourself.

I have absolutely had it with ungrateful dickheads like you ruining what should be a pleasant experience of sharing some PJ. Well for the indefinite future you can fucking well get your own bootlegs cause i am not supplying them to you any time in the forseeable future.

Yankee GM - thanks for ruining a beautiful thing.

I realise that this asshole is in the minority, but i have received numerous e-mails and comments of this manner over the last few months. I don't currently have the time or patience to upload shows, and design artwork for bootlegs only to be abused. Thanks to all for the support over the last two or so years, for now i am taking a break.

Sorry to hear that Murray,
It's a shame some people are so fucking greedy that they can't appreciate all the hard work you've put in and all the great shows you've provided for us. I for one, am extremely disappointed in these people for this. You do what you've gotta do.

Thanks for all the shows. Hope you kick it up again one day.

I second what LMM said. It's been great having the blog as I have been putting together the 95 and 98 tours. I'm very irritated that there are people out there who are ungrateful for all the work that has been done to put together the blog. Always a reliable source of quality boots. I will still visit, because it's a great site for other stuff beside the boots. I like the new idea of the video of the week.

Cheers to you BWR.

I can only echo the previous posts in expressing my disgust towards those who've tarnished this gift. For what it's worth, we've been asking for this since the "07 boots began surfacing. When folks are complaining about lack of access to boots mere days following the shows one can infer there's poison in the well.

If things truly happen for a reason I hope that those, including me, who've reaped the joy of this gift will reflect, and gain a heightened appreciation for all parties involved who've made the shows accessible. As a fan, living in a rural community, who will likely never get the opportunity to see PJ live, the pleasure received from listening to live PJ on my commute to and from work (2 hours each way) has made life a bit easier.

To those who've complained I contribute the following.

* You're ignorant, self-absorbed fools who need to visit a doctor, and get the fecal matter scraped out of your brains!

Lastly, to the tapers, those who've uploaded shows, and the fans who've contributed thoughtful commentary I wish you nothing but the best. Thank you.

First of all...2 hours each way?!?!? :eek: I thought my former one hour commute was bad. At least you can listen to a PJ show going to work and one comming back from work. "Thumbs Up" Also I compliment you on your use of fecal matter. Well said!

I just saw that the person who posted the comment that started this whole situation said that he was just "joking". He obviously used very poor taste/judgement when he was attempting the use of sarcasm.

Long live the rider of the big wave.

Where does the greed come into the equation?

Pettiness is the word if it is a word. The tapers are petty if they insist it must be FLAC. The downloaders are petty for complaining about what form they can download in. And I'm Gone is being petty about the comments made by downloaders.

I certainly appreciate all the work I'm Gone has done but didn't he decide to start doing this on his own accord. The petty TAPER'S WISHES is the root of the problem. You all should hear some bootlegs from before the digital age. It's about sharing the beauty of the live show not about how good it sounds.

I know I'm being a pain in the ass by asking, but I really need someone's help. I downloaded Soldier Field on mp3 and realized I didn't have Habit. If someone has Habit on Flac or mp3 can you please either upload it on here or send it to me. I would greatly appreciate it.

Habit:

it's in mp3, but was converted from FLAC

Another vote of appreciation for The Army Reserve. It's been a wonderful resource and hopefully will remain the fantastic archive that it is. Thanks so much.

Prioronfire22 · September 2007

thank you very much I didn't want to download the whole show again and for some reason I didn't have Habit on there.

You got it right with the last bit, it is about the beauty of sharing, but i take 2 hours out of my day to convert FLACs to mp3s, tag the files, upload them, create artwork etc.

I don't expect people to be bowing at my feet or thanking me at all, but vicious verbal attacks (and i'm not referring to the comment made on the blog, rather a number of e-mails i have received) are just uncalled for.

I chose to do this of my own accord to help share the live shows, but i don't feel like taking the time to do this anymore if all that happens is i get abused for respecting the wishes of others.

I hope you can now see where i am coming from, and that i am not doing this to be 'petty'.

Prioronfire22 · September 2007

Don't listen to them, you are a god among men.

You have all the right to call it quit. You collect the bootlegs from various places and make them all available at your blog making it easier for others, you really should not settle to taking any shit from nobody.

I remember 6 years ago when downloading bootlegs was a new thing and you were very happy to trade via regular mail let alone download anything. Now people bitch about everything and more.
I collected bookmarks to various bootleg sites over the years and got most of this years tapes there and let me say in extremely short time after the shows took place.

Prioronfire22 · September 2007

People are just so inconsiderate and fucking greedy man.

Well I myself do appreciate your effort. But just as it was your choice to start it is your choice to stop. Many will miss your efforts.

I think the tapers requests are petty but your don't see me putting out the effort that they do either.

Smoke In A Tree · September 2007

First off this thread is the shit!! Way to spread the Jam!! Quick question, I downloaded winrar a few weeks back and it now says I have to purchase a license, any idea where to purchase the license? Some place safe on the internet? Can I buy the software at Bestbuy or some place like that? Just hate giving my credit card info on-line. Help??

Prioronfire22 · September 2007

I've asked the same question. I've had mine for about 3 months and it asks everyday if you just hit cancel it keeps working.

Smoke In A Tree · September 2007

Thank you so much for your response!!

hey man, i looked through the thread to find out what's going on, but i can't seem to find the exact start of it. it appears you're taking your blog down or something?

all i can say is, i've been away from this thread a lot for the past few months, but i again want to thank you for all the energy you put into this. i remember trading with you via pm, and then you started the threads devoted to sharing... good stuff. you get my vote for board-member of the decade...

peace
