I'll be making the tree this week, and posting it as soon as I possibly can, so look for the announcement in the mailing list soon! The tree is officially closed, so if you didn't get on it, check out the tree when it's posted, and then contact one of the parents to see if he / she will trade with you separate from the tree. ALSO: I'm short of parents, so if you can burn CD's and would like to help out, please contact me right away. If I hear from you before I commit the tree structure, I can squeeze you in. Thanks, all, I know you will be pleased with this show! - ---Jeff--- - -- Jeff Angwin ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 22 Feb 1999 14:16:27 EST From: EFOcrew@aol.com Subject: CB's got a cool ne webpage! Hello all! I was just starting to wonder if anyone was out there, when Jeff posted about the CD tree. I figured since it was so slow, I'd post the URL for my new webpage. I've been teaching myself design for, oh, about two and a half weeks, now. It's coming along nicely. Please check out my pages and tell me what you think (there's email links all over the place...). For those of you who might be interested, please make sure you visit my Taper Info page. You can find all the info you need to get started in the wonderful world of taping. You will also find links to pages with more advanced info for the intermediate to advanced taper. I'll have a tapelist posted, hopefully in the next few weeks...I'm working on making the pages I have better so I can get some clients. No, I'm not quitting the sound business, I'm just trying to fill in some spare time at home because I'm not working as much as I'd like to. So don't worry, you'll still see me at various EFO shows. You might also catch me at Bad habits on a Tuesday night helping out the new band, Virginia Coalition. They're a great band, but don't know a whole lot about optimizing the mix : ). Good thing for me...I wouldn't have a job if the musicians knew how to run their own sound well! : ) So thanks for reading my post. I hope you get a chance to check out my site. (http://members.aol.com/EFOcrew) Email your comments, complaints, and suggestions to me. I'd love to know what everyone thinks! Also, if there's anyone out there who is experienced at this sort of thing, I'd love to have a mentor who'll answer my questions when I get frustrated. Thanks! Have a great Monday!

As expected, they were awesome! I must also pass on some words of wisdom for you all: Snow and EFO do not mix. Do not lightly plan to attend EFO shows in remote, snow-infested locales, for such presumption attracts the mischievous attention of the Weather Elves. I got to Mammoth Lakes literally minutes ahead of a blizzard, and spent three hours stuck in another one on my way home the next day. (Fortunately, it was worth it.) Anyway. I have a fairly technical taping question for whoever: My friend Dave taped the Davis show (which was FULL! It was PACKED!!! Next tour, Arco Arena! (just kidding)) on minidisc. The first set came out great, but the second set had a problem. His recorder fell at the very very end of the show, unplugging itself just before it could write the disc's table of contents. In sum, says Dave, everything is on there, but the player doesn't know it's there. He says it's hopeless. I'm a bit more optimistic--seems like this can't be an uncommon problem, and that there's got to be some way to hack it. Does anyone know?

There are a couple of sites that might help your friend out, http://www.minidisc.org is a good jumping point. I don't have a change tonight, but I'll do a little digging and see what I can come up with. Stephen C.
