Yes, it is him.
Maybe it's just computer problems for a few days.
The weird thing is the link for the page (which may be just "embedded") still works,

removed

but, like those of you that have already tried this, no doubt, I cannot find the listing by searching dime's directory.

In the thread at dime, meepzor writes:
apparently there seems to be some trouble with this torrent, as i've gotten several emails to that effect, and the fact that Dime registers the torrent as being DEAD. however it is still seeding and leechers are still gaining about 20% per day (despite my miserable speed).....dunno what's up. tried resetting the connection, changing ports, whatever and nothing has changed. but we should have a few more seeders in the ensuing days. sorry for the probs!!!

So, I take that to mean that a few people that did manage to snatch the whole thing are planning on coming back to lend a helping hand.
Let's hope

I don't know what to do with torrents ( i've tried and it takes ages), but if anyone has this show, would they be so kind to badongo it for me? Thank you.

I guess you better figure it out then.
I don't have any spare change for you, buddy.

I haven't listened to that Ruins show yet. Other stuff is taking precedence.

Hey, I was actually able to burn this '87 Metroplex one to a dvd. Success!

04.15.2007, 06:09 PM

Thanks for nothing you.....you.....you....

atari 2600 · 04.15.2007, 06:12 PM

The seeder had no instructions on the Ruins to not convert to lossy, so it's ripe to be shared. If it's something you really want then you'll get it from someone.
I was thinking of putting it up at the group.

atari 2600 · 04.15.2007, 06:15 PM

I've stated it a hundred times.
If you're not using BitTorrent and you don't have a dime membership, then you're really limiting the sort of great material that you can readily get.

04.15.2007, 06:17 PM

I've noticed that, but why does it take 300 years to download a show? I've tried with some interesting Velvet Underground stuff that i had found on their forum, but it was taking THREE HOURS to download it!!!

Absolutely. I think the only flaw is that little cut during the intro to Brother James and mine has some little self-correcting problems (skips for a few seconds) at the end of Pipeline too.

I have two others (Headliners in Madison & Spirit in San Diego...both from our benefactor) on dvd from '87 and this one I think is the best one. I saw a lot of hardcore shows at the Metroplex back in the day. Although, you gotta love the part at Headliners when Thurston is asking the audience to donate them some clothes...oh, and when the joint is lit.

Three hours isn't that long for a torrent. The reason torrents take long is because the files are of the best quality available. They are lossless files if the torrent is audio and DVD files if it is video. They aren't mp3s or mpeg or wmv or some other cheaply encoded videos.

I thought all of the torrent shit sounded complicated at first but it's easy. I guess it's because of the program that I use. Just get µTorrent and install it. Then right-click a file and open it. It will automatically open in µTorrent and start downloading. I didn't even change any of the settings. I still get an NAT error but it doesn't seem to affect my downloads in any way since I can download at full speed when there are a lot of seeders.

SonikJesus, pork/krop's already off and starting ten threads about the the cobwebs on his ceiling. Besides, all the guy has ever done is talk bad shit about torrents.

µTorrent, besides being guaranteed spyware and adware free, is a good user-friendly utilitarian program. Although I don't use it myself, I've recommended it a few times; the reason being its (yes, I agree) extreme ease-of-use.
