Does anyone have the original "Mystery Demos" bootleg(s)? I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could share it if they have them. Apparently there were as many as 46 tracks over 2 cds that have been circulating. I'd like to hear all the tracks that didn't make it onto the reissues. http://sixtytozero.blogspot.com/2009/01/demystifying-jayhawks-mystery-demos.html

Official videos of Tweedy's Farm Aid set are up on youtube, courtesy of the Farm Aid website. There is a box below the videos where you can donate money to Farm Aid, too. The links below are in the order of songs played... Enjoy! ~Aaron

The entire "Le Noise" has leaked out as of this morning.

Th latest NPR Tiny Desk Concert features the Nels Cline Singers. Thought I'd post that here for those of you who are unaware. It looks like it was posted just this morning. This sounds great! btw it is available in both audio or video. To get the audio version, subscribe to the NPR "All songs Considered" Podcast in the itunes store. If you want to get the video version, subscribe to the NPR "Tiny Desk" podcast, once you do so, it should start automatically downloading. It did for me. enjoy! ~Aaron

The bonus tracks leaked at some point yesterday via a private tracker, (along w/the rest of the record) in several formats, including 24-bit FLAC.

This is true. I went and bought the vinyl set yesterday. There was no cd. Initally, for some reason, the RSD site said that it would include a cd, but that ended up not being the case.

UPDATE: The RSD webpage updated its info. It now says limited to 5000 and it no longer lists the cd.

Hmmm...maybe only the units sold during record store day have it? I'm thinking that might explain part of the 1000 limited editions? Maybe the 1000 units sold at the stores have the cd and the rest don't? I guess we'll find out tomorrow. I'm going downtown early in the morning to make sure i get this thing.

Did yours come w/the cd too? Does the cd have the bonus tracks?

What program did to use to record this? I'm curious, b/c i can only get recordings on my old pc. My newer laptop, for some reason, doesn't work with the programs that I've tried to use with it, and I'd like to find something that does.

I'm gonna re-record this Boston stream. It doesn't seem to have the dropouts that the original webcast had. Since all webcasts are lossy, however, any recording should be split and shared as mp3s. not lossless.

I think some of those webcast torrents originally came from the VC tracker when that was up.

No torrent sites for webcasts really. There's usually rules against it, since the original quality of the webcast itself is actually lossy. We might be able to put it up on the Owl & Bear Wilco archive. There are other webcasts from the past up there now, I believe. We should consult w/Aman...

It turns out the stuff i did record was damaged. No more recording on my laptop! Did anyone record "In The Street?"

Ok i pretty much couldn't get anything to record tonight, except "In The Street." It was worth it.

Cool! I'll be here to record the show while i'm at work.

I used something called "Creative Labs Sound Recorder." It's a program that was free w/my desktop when i bought it. I don't think there's a freeware version of that available. I was surprised to find it included when i bought it. Tonight I'll be forced to use another program on my laptop. I hope that works.

Let me know how yours turned out. I'm gonna do the same for mine. Other than the occasional right audio channel dropping out, the recording was a good as could be expected for a live webcast. Recording tomorrow's show will be trickier for me. I'm at work and i haven't had as much luck recording with the laptop as i have with my desktop, which i used tonight. We shall see. And yes, i'll try to share what i have somehow. Maybe we can put this up on the O&B archive. This one was pretty special.

I'm on it. If there are no major audio problems from here on out, we will have a recording of this thing.

download the latest version of the quicktime player.

My software that came with my computer works great, but it Converts the recording to wav. which kinda sucks, considering that the original quality of these webcast is lossy,but that the only format it'll convert to that i know of. I then convert it back to lossy. It's also the only one that works for me without difficulty. Hmm. This must be the original version of "So Much Wine" that we are hearing? Jeff has covered this in concert. EDIT: Handsome Family. Gotcha.

I'm gonna attempt to record this webcast. Hopefully it'll go better than the past few times.

The Boston show on april 6 will be webcasted, according to Wilcoworld! http://www.wilcoweb.com/ top hand right corner in the news feed.

I certainly hope that's the case. I plan on getting this either way, but it'd be nice to have a cd w/those extra tracks.Wilcoworld doesn't list a cd. That's odd...
