you, my friend, are the greatest
happy bday

[Bob511]

Oh my, that was an embarrassingly recorded bootleg.
Note to others: Sony MDs do not have powered mic inputs....

[amish]

Bob : What is a fairly inexpensive way to bootleg, then? I am headed to a Weezer show in the upcoming months, and it is a small venue, and I would definitely like to bootleg it. So, suggestions?

PS - Thread stickied.

[Bob511]

I don't know if there's really a "fairly inexpensive" means of live recording, starting from scratch; even the cheapest minidisc is gonna run you $50-$100.  Most of those will have powered mic inputs instead of/in addition to line-level line inputs, which should do a decent job with unpowered mics in medium-volume settings, though possibly overloading (and thus the clipping you can hear in these recordings) if it gets too loud.  Sonys (one of which I used for this recording) are the primary exceptions to that, I think, with some (most?) models only featuring line-level inputs; most MP3 recorders (like my Archos) will have the same problem, so you're left finding some form of powered mic (like the Sony ECM mic Dan let me borrow to record the second Monstro bootleg I did when I left my mic at home) or putting a battery box in between the deck and the mic (my standard rig).  Either way, you're looking at another $50-$100 at least for the power+mic half of the equation.

So yeah.  Basically, the cheapest way to do it is to borrow from someone who already paid for stuff.  Otherwise, you're going to be working up from $75-$100, the more you spend the better your equipment.

[Andy]

yeah you the best
anyone possibly have a .zip? lol

[amish]

I could provide a .zip if that makes things easier for people. I originally intended to provide it as a .zip archive. But SOMEONE (Rieg) yelled at me and made me cry.

[cesarsalad]

jesus... that looks like one awesome fucking set

i miss ozma so much it makes me want to cry. 

[Bob511]

Considering that the time it would take to unzip such a file would greatly outweigh the time and effort needed to just download the files themselves--and considering that compressing already-compressed .mp3 files is rather pointless--I don't know that I see the benefit....?

[Andy]

less time at the computer
let it download, unzip it, let it run, and all while you have a nice breakfast


oh yeah classic smilies rule   

[cesarsalad]

it doesn't take that much time to unzip an archive that small. what kind of computers are you guys running?

[jvstin]

crappy ones

[Bob511]

it doesn't take that much time to unzip an archive that small. what kind of computers are you guys running?

It doesn't take that much time to save a handful of files, either.  Or what kind of arthritis are you guys suffering?
