I have been a bad boy apparently

so much so that Mediafire will disconnect me if too many more notices come from people saying that content is theirs and theirs alone.  So far this week I have had two notices about Pains of Being Pure At Heart and Rodrigo y Gabriela. They don't tell you how many strikes you get but I won't take the chance.

As the primary intent of the blog is to provide access to recordings of Brisbane artists I have decided to remove recordings of any artist whose soul I imagine to be owned by faceless men in boardrooms.  I have a limited imagination so I probably have missed a few.  I was actually surprised at how few there were given the almost 1200 recordings I do have though there will be more in the Megaupload recordings.

The removals are almost entirely non-Australian artists, not that Australian artists are immune.

The following sets no longer reside on Mediafire.  They may exist elsewhere.

If you are one of these artists and you are happy to have the recording hosted let me know and I won't believe you.
 
Meanwhile I have not stopped going out and recording but I have spent less time in front of the computer and more in front of the wife.  That's about to change; I am about to catch up with the posting.  As a bonus I have a new phone, a Nokia 808 Pureview which takes amazing photos but more importantly amazing video with great sound like this one I prepared earlier of Pete forgetting the words to Your Pretty Face.  These will become a regular feature I hope.


Thank you for your patience.

That sucks man. I had my account suspended indefinitely. Not overly sure about how I'm gonna do this any more. Need to find a new way to share.
Also.. did you ever get around to doing your Golden Plains stuff from this year? And did you go to Splendour again? I always look forwards to those recordings.

Don't let it discourage you man.

Couple of months back, I had record labels trying to sue me and even had a band steal my recording and credit it as their own (after they asked me to record). I was shattered and totally discouraged from recording and blogging, but I'm going to do some more soon.

Look into private hosting. I've got my own server which is great, no mediafire drama, no "this file will be deleted in 30 days" crap etc.

I'm so glad I got most of them before they were taken down. I second the above comments, keep the recordings coming, Brisbane NEEDS you man! Also, the video looks and sounds great. Are you going to post pictures as well?

Peace,
