Well, that's basically how I record since I don't have a license and go to festies with tone deaf in the summer. Without tone deaf, I might record 5 shows a year. With toned ears help, I prob record aroun 250+ sets a year!!! Thanks tone deaf!!!!

I said it as a joke, but may have to be serious -- so many or a lot of tapers record mainly during a season?  And that season would then be the summer?

I really had no idea.  Music and taping happens year round out here in CO.  I don't even know there is more taping to be had during the summer.  Besides bluegrass festivals (Telluride and Rockygrass), we're probably not a huge summertime festival location (though there are other festivals at Telluride and Planet Bluegrass).  We get shows coming all the time, and probably due to colleges and ski season, usually get pretty regular runs of music in the fall and spring, plus NYE runs.

Seemed like I taped pretty consistently year round when I lived in DC too.

Maybe I need to hold onto all the gear I want to sell, and sell it in the late spring in anticipation of this taping season thingy.

Well, when you have cancer you're being treated for, and you're off the road for a few months at a time, you look at your taping activities more as "seasons".

I unfortunately tape during seasons as well, but I'm not sure it's the same season each year...

No worries bud. I have thyroid cancer and I've had it all removed. Only thing left is to take a couple radioactive iodine pills and I should be done. It's been a tough road since about August, but I should be done this all by Christmas. I had my thyroid, my left tonsil, and 21 lymph nodes removed from the left side of my neck. Pretty extensive surgery, but I should recover 100%. Thanks much! I'll be heading back out to the shows soon. My goal is an end of year moe.run.

Way to go Myco! Livestrong.

We might need to start a Team Survivors thread.

Taping was very therapeutic for me when I was recovering. I needed the additional motivation to keep pushing myself to regain strength and stamina and getting out to shows, hanging with the other local tapers, and keeping my mind off medical shit really made a huge difference in getting back to "normal."

Sorry to hear you got sick but its great to hear you have a plan to conquer those pesky screwed up cells.


Sorry for the thread hijack. I've been fascinated with this project for years and keep reading to see what will happen next.  Anybody else notice the North Koreans' announced that they discovered a Unicorn lair roughly about the exact same time 2 AKG actives projects became a reality? Coincidence?

Glad to hear myco

[F.O.Bean]

Good stuff Myco!

+T Myco on a successful recovery.   

[Myco]

Thanks much! And I will thank anyone else who might think of wishing well. I don't want to hijack this thread anymore than I seem to have done.    I look forward to seeing some form of these actives coming out in the near future!

I have a feeling Dactylus will be coming out of early retirement when he hears about the progress being made on Gefell actives.
