... to include his name, email address, and a thanks in the .txt file because it is common courtesy?
I was at Joshua Tree Roots fest this weekend. Had a great time... Blue Turtle Seduction threw down and Rail Road Earth had a couple nice sets. We got there and set up for Tim Easton the first night. Sometime during the first set the SBD person comes out to talk to me. He asked me to put info in the txt thanking him for the mix. Said it was common courtesy and a way to get his name out there. There were 4-5 other tapers there and for some reason I was the only one that he asked. Anyone else ever have this happen?
Yep! I had a guy ask me to include that on any CD I distributed. This show wasn't even uploaded anywhere. The guy wasn't very friendly in other ways, so I never bothered to do it. I guess it is fair, and I might have obliged, but I just got indifferent vibes from this guy in any other dealings I had with him.
This is something to consider, though. After all, the sound guy makes a huge difference, probably more than we tapirs do...
