The Czech Republic Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 Never say "I'm surprised I've gotten three and a half years out of this, I just hope it doesn't die all of a sudden!" 'cuz then it will in like seven hours What I've salvaged Frank Zappa Tom Waits Pink Floyd Camper Van Beethoven The Arcade Fire Broken Social Scene Miles Davis U2 The Beach Boys The Beatles Polyphonic Spree Faust Radiohead Wilco Dave Brubeck Waiting for the Moon other stuff hang on a sec What I probably lost Fountains of Wayne Guster Kraftwerk Can Neu! Led Zeppelin All the other Tindersticks albums An assortment of classic rock shit that I used to like The Smiths So actually when I write it all out, I only lost like 40 albums or so out of 130 after scrounging for all my backups and stuff. That's not the worst, but a minor inconvenience nonetheless. No "Hallogallo" to chill out to. I'm taking it in to Best Buy to see if they can retrieve the hard drive, but I have a bad feeling it's gone. Out of nowhere it just stopped turning on and only kinda hums and sputters for a few seconds before shutting off. So we'll see. If I haven't alienated you with my asshole behavior, I won't stop you from firing up the old yousendit
Guest Vitamin X Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 I'll donate to you the Smiths I have
The Czech Republic Posted February 27, 2006 Author Report Posted February 27, 2006 Actually, the Smiths you donated to me was part of a project in which I donated the Smiths to my friend, so I just have to kindly ask her to lend me the data CD I gave her that has the whole back catalogue
The Czech Republic Posted February 27, 2006 Author Report Posted February 27, 2006 hm I also lost Velvet Underground and the soundtrack for Royal Tenenbaums. lame btw Crisis '05 was just "why did it shut off?!? Oh the cat tripped on the AC adapter and the batteries weren't charged"
NYU Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 Between your broken television a little more than a year ago and now your MP3 player, you seem to have bad luck with electronics.

I just ran back from the grocery store to buy a new light bulb because my desk lamp died, actually. WHAT'S NEXT
Slayer Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 *Czech disappears from TSM for three weeks due to computer meltdown*
The Czech Republic Posted February 27, 2006 Author Report Posted February 27, 2006 It's making a weird humming sound right now, I'm not fucking kidding. My laptop is gonna die.
Guest Vitamin X Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 No, that's just the sound of all your sperm screaming and dying due to having an overheated laptop on your lap
nl5xsk1 Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 Czech, I can point you in the direction of a few webpages that have all sorts of Grateful Dead shows for legal download. No need to thank me.
Masked Man of Mystery Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 Czech, I can point you in the direction of a few webpages that have all sorts of Grateful Dead shows for legal download. No need to thank me. Archive.org Archive.org (Phil Lesh and Friends) Nugs.net's free stash(GD and other related projects plus other stuff) Deadboots Deadshow.org Sugarmegs(all kinds of stuff, including GD, Dead, and a lot more) GDLive.com Philzone.com's stuff(All Lesh, of course) I make no claim as to how legal anything not on archive.org is, nor do I say they're all good quality. If you need a soundboard that used to be on archive.org, I might be able to help you there, I got some. Hope it helps.
Bruiser Chong Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 Just get an iPod and be done with it. This is coming from someone with even worse luck with anything electric.

If you need a soundboard that used to be on archive.org, I might be able to help you there, I got some. Hope it helps. MMoM, I'll give you one caveat: Czech hates the Grateful Dead, along with most other 'jam bands'. I was being very sarcastic when I offered to provide him links to Dead Shows. I'll probably end up grabbing a bunch of shows from some of those links, though. I use archive & nugs (I'm actually listening to Phish from 1995 NYE as I type this) but a couple of the other links are new to me.
Carnival Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 I just hope Czech doesn't lose his ICP mp3's. don't let him fool you...he has them.

If you're a jazz fan at all, grab the Coltrane show on Sugarmegs, clear as can be, just perfect, it's 41 minutes and I think it's all working around "My Favorite Things"

I've been doing "Jazz Sunday Brunch" with an ex-gf of mine, and am already running out of good jazz on my iPod. Anything new that I can add to the mix is going to help break up the monotony.

It's WMA, if IPods can't handle that and you don't know how to convert it, let me know and I'll send you my mp3 of it
nl5xsk1 Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 I'm pretty sure iPod's can convert the WMA to an iPod playable format ... I'm not 100% certain though. If it doesn't work, I'll most assuredly hit you up for an mp3. (and it looks like you & I teamed up on a good threadjack of Czech's mp3 crisis thread)
Art Sandusky Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 Man, I never call something gay. If Czech isn't ashamed, he should be. The rest of you wingnuts aren't helping. The "Professional Otaku" now appears along with a picture that makes me think of jam music. Peachy.

Osaka looking stoned(she's not, she's just...Osaka if you ever watch Azumanga Daioh you'll know what I mean) or the picture of Jerry Garcia?
Art Sandusky Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 If you have to ask, you'll never know.
Slayer Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 I don't think Kotz will be watching Azumab... Azurama... that show anytime soon
Masked Man of Mystery Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 I don't think Kotz will be watching Azumab... Azurama... that show anytime soon Azumanga Daioh ADV stuff Wonderland, a great fan site Sorry 'bout the hijacking
Art Sandusky Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 Hey Masked Man. Have you seen this thread?
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 *Reads the initial post. Pops in Kraftwerk's Minimum Maximum in my portable CD player and walks away listening to "Neon Lights"*
Masked Man of Mystery Posted February 28, 2006 Report Posted February 28, 2006 Hey Masked Man. Have you seen this thread? That's a pretty lame reason to be calling me the biggest dork.
Art Sandusky Posted February 28, 2006 Report Posted February 28, 2006 You act like I did that. Go yell at Agent. He's a creampuff, honest.
