Elvis Costello Fan Forum

I've kept away from NTSC downloads, but I guess that would just mean a potential problem with the telly (though probably most recent European DVD players of any quality can handle NTSC), not on the computer, which is where I would watch it anyway. Is that right? The weird thing about this, in the U...

I have a 2 disc set from this recording, don't remember what it sounds like: Here's the text file that came with it (probably from STG) Elvis Costello and the Attractions January 7, 1982 Royal Albert Hall, London, England First Set (with John McFee) 01. Steve Nieve Introduction / Big Tears 02. Stric...

Thanks, MichaelM. Very helpful. Yeah, my main concern is the longevity issue, and I knew that the Japanese manufactured products were the only ones that seemed to be holding up -- thus far, anyway. I have been screwing around on my computer while burning -- haven't noticed anything specific, proble...

I can get a 100 pack spool for about $24. That's $24 less for 600 than Dr Luther! You'd better let him know where. Rima is a good place to start http://www.rima.com/ I have some other links on my home computer, I'll up those when I get home. I'll start a "Media Deals" thread tonight for l...

There is a difference in quality in different brands of media. Mostly it's an issue of longevity or lifespan of a burnt disc but I also have had some cheap media not play in all my players. My oldest CDR's are from around 1998, some still work and some don't, but all of my old CDR's made in Japan st...

Some list, Michael M (and nice to see you again, hope you've been busy drumming as well as compiling that immense list of EC and many others!). Care to chip in with your list of absolute favourite shows? I see you've added comments to some of these where you're particularly impressed, e.g. Bethlehe...

"Party Girl" Minneapolis, MN1996 - The end of an era; high quality sound of EC&The A's before Bruce and Elvis warmly embrace and lovingly go their separate ways; ATUB tracks sound great. Wow, I've got about 175 EC shows and I don't think I have this one. Now that I'm all caught up wit...

This is a very good show, unfortunately my copy is a poor conversion from VHS to DVD with lots of digital static and clipping.

Somone must have a good copy of this.

Hi I'm stuck on 3 EC shows on DIME and I'm here begging for some help if anyone still has them on their harddrives. I'm Allosmcm at DIME (I have a positive share ratio) and hifidelityelvis ( I was a very active trader a couple years ago) so maybe some of you remember me. Hope you can help and thanks...

I got this in a trade a couple years back but it was a very bad transfer. I'd love to see a good copy of this.

Can someone please help me finish this one. I'm stuck at 50%

Thanks all

If this does surface I'm sure it will spread quickly. That one track is great. Would've been cool if the taper had actually given a reason for pulling it. I doubt it's anything more than they think it's a valuable show to trade in order to get more shows. Doesn't really work that way. People with th...

From the seeder "Sorry guys, had to pause this for the moment as have received a pm from someone caliming to be the taper of this show not wanting it to be put up. Hopefully it can get sorted out." If tapers don't want other people to get their precious recordings they shouldn't trade it. ...

This is very sad. EZTree was a great community and now it's over. Are there any other tracker sites out there? http://bt.easytree.org/ April 6, 2005, 16:00 GMT Hello gals and guys, We're very sorry having to tell you that we had to shut down EZT just a couple of minutes ago. We got a call from our p...

Looks like there are a few people from San Diego on here. Otis, thanks for the welcome back. I kinda forgot about this place and my internet time seems to be spent at easytree and the EC hifidelity trade list. Misha started my addiction last year and it's grown into a pretty consuming habit. http://...

I was at that show last night night and the crowd was pretty crazy. I must have seen about 3 or 4 near fights break out just around us, and so many stupid drunk people. I was on the same side, probably just a few feet behind Jill from that previous post. Near the end Elvis looked pretty pissed off a...

The new trend in downloading seems to be SHN, APE and FLAC files on BitTorrent(peer to peer) downloads. These formats are lossless compression, so there isn't a quality issue anymore. SHN, APE and FLAC formats aren't as popular as MP3's because of the large file size and longer downloads, but you ca...

Wehit, are you in the EC traders group? http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/Highfidelityelvis/ You should check this site out too, http://www.sharingthegroove.org/msgboard/ there's not much elvis on sharingthegroove but you can certainly post some if you want, as long as they're not mp3s. Check it ...

Count me in

Wow. I'm just listening to it now. It's truely amazing, I'm kicking myself for missing the UCLA show. This is the next best thing. High Fidelity Elvis Trading Group http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/Highfidelityelvis/ This has been mentioned in other threads and it's really worth checking out.

There's a very active EC trading group on yahoo, for those interested. http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/Highfidelityelvis/ If people haven't checked this trading group out yet, they should. I just joined a couple weeks ago and already have a few great shows. I'm allosmcm over there. Misha's on ...

I want in on this

No editing please. As a musician, I have to say it's his vision, he can edit himself. Don't even start me on producers. Plus none of us could ever decide on any edited play list.

Monk would ruin my B&C and I'd ruin her IB.

How did you record(save) the video feed? I couldn't figure it out.
