Massively Parallel Procrastination

An untitled post

I bootlegged my first concert in something like 8 years. The recording technology has increased immeasurably since last time. I've traded in (well, not literally) my D3 "Pro" walkman for an MD-Z1. It's about as big as my walkman. Of course, I hadn't gotten around to picking up a set of mics yet...so I ended up with the same trick I used in high school. I took the cheap-ass headphones that came with the MD recorder and plugged them into the mic jack. I turned the gain ALL the way up....and then I stood near the speaker. Of course, I had to do an analog transfer to get the data off them MD. (Thanks, Sony.) And then I had to hunt around to find tools to record and split the tracks on my mac. But now I've got a shiny new Freezepop CD. And mp3s to go along with it. (And the band has the mp3s, too).
