The guy selling this collection (DAZNY) bid $777 on the MBD auction with less than 2 minutes till closing. Perhaps he just wanted it for himself, but I wonder.....

Quoting myself - what a loser....
Hmmm, from his "about me" page,
http://members.ebay.com/aboutme/dazny/
he at least expresses a desire to help bands out. He claims he is trying to raise money to help them re-releae older material.
You never know with people on-line (it'e easy to lie) but he doesn't sounds like such a terrible guy.

This fella has expressed the idea to help fund some
DA reissues. Nothing is definite yet, but he does seem
very interested in helping in any way he can.

so was this about what Terry expected or less than expected??
Posted by Poopyhead on 02-06-2003 at14:43:
hang in there bubbadeathmandude your price will go up. Someone has offered to take your abominable meanderings off your hands for a measly $850. I'd be willing to do it for a cool million or my name isn't poopyhead.

It's a lot more than what we expected.. we were expecting a couple of hundred dollars. I'm sure Terry will be shocked.

Well with BD's comments that the $200 profit from Dambit is going to Terry to... His wife will look pail as the cheque in the mail will not be the amount they were thinking about.
Party at Terrys house????
Or perhaps this can pay for all the rights to Darn Floor Big Bite or Let's Spin or Outdoor Elvis for a re-release.
(I love spending other peoples money for them)

Location, Location, Location...
do not forget to invite me (& any other fellow MN's) over for your listening party after you receive the tapes...

maybe we can all dance on Olvera street while listening.....
Posted by Mark on 02-06-2003 at17:46:
Mark is a lucky guy. Unfortunately, it's not this Mark.
Posted by brdhsnyrsoul on 02-06-2003 at19:06:
That is too bad. Too bad it's not me either.
Posted by Tyler Durden on 02-06-2003 at23:57:
Communications with one of the winners is that there will not be a sharing of the entire recording.
That is a bummer.
I look forward to the long awaited dvd of the recording.
Posted by brdhsnyrsoul on 02-07-2003 at16:03:
That really sucks.
Posted by Mark on 02-07-2003 at18:34:
Yeah, what he said.

Sharing tapes
I have really mixed feelings about owning these tapes.
1. If I had lost the auction and never had a chance to hear these recordings, I'd feel that my life wasn't complete and be nagging the winner relentlessly to share.
2. But, since I'm shelling out some major money and having to liquidate part of my DADL collection to pay for these tapes, If I freely share these tapes to be a nice guy and not be selfish, then the value of these recordings becomes worthless because anyone with a recording can freely distrubute it and I don't get compensated at all, making me stupid for paying so much for them in the first place.
I'm between a rock and a hard place.
If *I* had to decide how to sell the tapes next time, I'd consider having Audiories make CDRs of them and sell them just like Ten-Gallon-Hat. Or, I'd take sealed bids from the DADL and DAMB fans and see if it comes to enough money. That kind of happened this time, except with everybody kicking in $25, it was obvious that the consortium wasn't going to win the tapes and some bootlegger would end up with them which would be the ultimate bummer.....so..... what to do except find some partners who felt the same way and buy the tapes.
The only real snag is Terry's desire not to have the recordings become widely distrubuted.... I don't know how that could be controlled in an auction setting.
I don't like being a pig and hogging the tapes to myself, but I don't want to be a moron and decrease their value to myself and other partners and disappoint Terry either!

If I paid that much, I would feel the same way.
It would be nice to have a cd that only plays with a drop of dadl DNA. That way it could only be played inside "the family"
