I awoke yesterday afternoon around 1500 local time... got up and did the usual stuff, check email, etc. Figured I'd hit tth.com for another setlist fix, and lo and behold! - Christmas came early to Cowtown!

Took me about 10 minutes to download and another few to burn.... and wow...!!! Damn fine show! My compliments to whomever mixed this - I can't remember the last time I could clearly hear Gordie's acoustic in the "louder" songs.

I was looking over the CD labels with my finger poised on the "print" button when I noticed a few songs missing.... thank you, ddd444, for getting a revised version on the site.

"George, keep our land.... glorious and free...." - hilarious. It would be funnier if it wasn't so true.

Can we expect some vintage shows to appear for paid download? I would love to see the first Hip show I attended in Buffalo on 4-29-95 to be available. There are so many others that would be great to have a clean copy of. Hope it happens!

Now I understand what Chris is saying here, but some of us...believe it or not.....still operate on a dial-up connection. I haven't downloaded songs in years, even from the ftp (hundredthmeridian)...and it doesn't bother me at all!

I would love to get this show from livedownloads.com but you know, I just don't have the time to download an entire show using dial-up. And I haven't heard about any fan recordings from this show either by the way.... It would be awesome to do a B+P for this show as I just don't have the time to download it.

Hi all,

I'm also having trouble with Heaven.

Anyone on a Mac able to decode this file?

I have tried 4 different decoders - and every one has choked on Heaven.

...Not knowing if Livedownloads will fix this... How would people feel if - I believe it was Highlander - made his fixed version of this track available to those who have d/led it...? Put it up in .wav or .aiff format somewhere so we can burn our CDs of the show...?

The show sounds great - and I hope it's the start of more to follow.

I too am on dail-up so I'm screwed :(
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

Jerremy,

I'm in the same boat as you:

MacFLAC - failed
FLACer - failed
xACT - failed

Could someone please help us out?

I am having trouble with the whole show.
I got to the pay screen - I payed - and nothing - no confirmation - nothing.
Do I pay again? Did I pay already?
Damn - gotta wait until Monday when customer service is in and answers me.

Ah Chris - a Mac user who can feel my pain. :)

I tried all those and something called YAA - no good.

I wrote in to livedownloads - but as was mentioned earlier in the thread - they are not there until Monday.

Maybe someone who has a clean decode can make it available...?

I didn't get any confirmation either, but when I refreshed the main screen, the "FLAC $12.95" button had changed to "Download FLAC" I clicked it, and voila!

I did this, but I was still able to detect a minor glitch. I zoomed in to the wav as close as possible to make sure I was getting as accurate a picture as I could of the problem...and even then, I can still here a very small hiccup.

Normally I wouldn't care that much, but when I'm paying for this, it is a different story.

I haven't heard back from Livedownloads, anyone else?

That's odd Billy. I edited it and listened to it about 5 or six times with headphones and up loud on my speakers and I couldn't hear anything left of the glitch. But I do agree, if we are paying $12.95 USD for a show we should expect it to be clean.
