best fan recorded shows

[Steve Swann]

I recently torrented a gigantic collection of Tragically Hip bootlegs and so far over the course of 2 or 3 weeks it has been shared out at a ratio of something like 30 to 1.  If only that was sourced through Dime I'd never need to worry about my ratio again.  :)  As it is I ended up having to bump my Dime ratio by downloading and sharing a Yes live boot that I really don't care that much about, but which is apparently much in demand....  It is kind of a nuisance that sharing Hawkwind wouldn't accomplish that, but if enough of us showed up, maybe then it would....

Hmm, if my account still exists, I should check whether my ratio is  
currently higher or lower than that! :)

I have successfully bittorrented Hawkwind shows that moved over or  
were otherwise posted to Pirate Bay, and generally try to stream them  
for as long as possible with my admittedly limited disk space   
Checking my current ratio, it's about 1.81, which ain't too  
embarrassing for a casual torrenter of live shows from (let's face  
it) a slightly obscure band!

I just always had bad luck with Dime torrents for some reason!

Cheers,
Carl
