Where have all the traders gone? (trades, anyone?)

         I have been on a such an MMJ kick lately that I am looking to expand my live MMJ library.   My problem (among many, and it would take a team of Austrian psychiatrists to crack the surface of them  :) ) is that I can't download live stuff onto my computer.   I have to do trades the old fashioned way ("they eaaarrrn it", doing my best John Housman impression, which I believe Chris Berman also uses, so maybe some of you have heard of it - I think that Housman did it for a commercial for Smith-Barney in the '70s, before most of you were born) - I have to burn things on my stand-alone CD burner and use the good old USPS for delivery.  
         I have hit up Kory for some of this stuff, but I don't want to overwhelm him.  If any of you are sittin' around (sudden rememberance:  "sitting around" was what Two Tone listed as a 'hobby' on the MMJ fan club sheet, circa '01) and burning one or burning discs and you wanna help Ol Lo, holler!   Either PM or IM me (whatever it's called) here on the forum or hit me up at lowdog@koyote.com.   In particular, I am wanting that show that they did in Athens when they sang some funny lyrics to Wonderful Tonight.  Maybe both of those.  Maybe a Bonnaroo from '04 or '05 (I got '06 and it's astounding).   I need both of those Dallas shows from November '06, the 10/8/05 Nashville show (only one of two MMJ shows that I attended but didn't tape), and the Ryman show from 11/13/06.   I have a bunch of older shows to trade you.  I am not a big trader but I used to be and I have a bunch of other stuff to trade:
Neil Young, Son Volt, Slobberbone, DBT, and other stuff.   Even if you can send me one show, please don't hesitate to holler.   Thanks!

If you're lucky, MMJ will fill the void you didn't even know you ever had. If you're luckier, you'll get to see them live.

George,
I am sorry for leaving you hangin'.
I'll get a package together for you consisting of:

- Austin 6/3/2003 dvd Mercury Lounge show
- Bonnaroo 2004 & 2005
- Ryman 11/13/06
- The NYE 2006 Run 12/29-12/31/06

I can send more if others can't, this will occupy me for a day or two and it'll be in the mail. I ask nothing in return because you've given us enough already.

Cheers!

Thanks for all of the responses, I appreciate y'all very much.  This is a most generous forum!   The Rust list (Neil Young) was also amazingly friendly when it came to taping and trading - and those tapers used The Best equipment - some of the stuff they did (and I'm sure that they're still doing) is legendary!   Kory is going to send me a bunch of what I asked for (too much, truthfully!), and I will hit up Dylan, cmcubbin, and others privately.  Thanks again.  Other than what I asked for (Bonnaroo, Dallas '06, NYE '06, Ryman '06, et al), if there is anything that you consider your favorite and pristine-sounding, please suggest that to add to my library.   I have, as I stated earlier, a bunch of stuff from the old days, mainly '02'-03.    We talked here last year about making up a compilation of all of the songs played on a specific tour (I know that there is a thread compiling all of the songs played during specific times of the year that they toured).   Did anyone ever compile a collection of those songs?   I have been too busy to deal with it, but I do remember that there was talk.  The covers thing was great and thanks to Dylan and everyone else who worked on that.   Once I get the Dallas '06 shows I am going to begin working on an 'At Dawn' live compilation, it's been in the works for years!  It's mainly for my own amusement but I will offer it up once it's done.   Have fun, kids.
