I'd be more than willing to help seed some of this - offering it on
mailing lists, and/or upping it on bit torrent sites like dimeadozen.org/ez torrent.
Let me know, or let Jeff know, and put him in touch with me, however
its working out. I'm more interested in hearing early material I have yet
to hear, but whatever comes my way will be appreciated, listened to,
and shared, freely!

Thanks for all you do to spread the Tubes music my friend!

Yodel one and all

News update.  My new friend Jeff Dorman is now in posession of what I
believed was ALL of my Tubes stuff, I.E. everything I gave Michael
for The Tubes Project, stuff I had been collecting since 1975.  He is
I believe in the process of setting up a seeding tree so all you
Tubes folks out there will now be able to get all The Tubes your
heart desires. 
As I said previously, I never believed in that "I have it and you
don't so yahboosuckstoyou" bullshit.  Let those who will appreciate
it have it I say!!
HOWEVER, when I audited my collection I have found that somehow the
following titles had "GONE". Not only the mp3 copies from my hard
drives but also the original WAV copies that I thought were sitting
on my shelves.
So I am now looking to you good folks out there to help me out with
copies of the following :-

SPIRIT OF 66  -  VERVIERS  -  Wednesday  15.12.2004
KING TUTS WAH WAH HUT  -  GLASGOW  -  Wednesday  08.12.2004
SHEPHERDS BUSH EMPIRE  -  LONDON  -  Monday  06.12.2004
The MELKWEG  -  AMSTERDAM  -  Monday  11.11.2002 
ASTORIA THEATRE  -  LONDON  -  Monday  17.12.2001 
GOTA KALLARE  -  STOCKHOLM  -  Sunday 16.12.2001 
FABRIK KULTURHAUS  - HAMBURG  -  Tuesday  04.12.2001 
NEWHALL PARK  -  SANTA CLARITA CA  -  Sunday  29.08.1999 
WOODLEY PARK  -  VAN NUYS CA  -  Saturday  28.10.1995
PLAZA PARK  -  SAN JOSE CA  -  Wednesday  22.07.1993

The PALACE THEATRE  -  HOLLYWOOD CA  -  Friday  01.11.1985
(with Beauty & TTYL)

PARAMOUNT THEATRE  -  SEATTLE WA  -  Saturday  17.08.1985 
OSU  -  CORVALLIS OR  -  01.12.1983

There may be others, I noticed a few gaps in the 1987-89 section for
instance, but more of that later.
So fellow Tubies, I am now asking you for a helping hand.  Anyone got
these and willing to send me copies, any format?

NEXT, is there anyone else out there willing / able to help Jeff with
the seeding side of things?  I can copy and mail stuff to people who
want it here in the UK & Europe but it is a bit much to expect Jeff
to do all the graft in the USA.  SO, you want it? then come and help
make it available and even though this goes without saying I'm gonna
say it anyway.....

THESE TITLES ARE TO BE MADE FREELY AVAILABLE TO ANYONE WHO ASKS.  NO
MONEY IS TO EVER CHANGE HANDS.  YOU MAY HOWEVER OFFER TO COVER A
PERSONS POSTAGE BUT THE TUNES ARE FOR US ALL FOR FREE.
HAVING SAID THAT, YOUMAY FEEL YOU SHOULD BUY THE GUYS IN THE BAND A
BEER THE NEXT TIME THEY ARE IN YOUR TOWN.....IT'S THE LEAST YOU CAN
DO!!

So, I look forward to being inundated with offers from you good folk
as you shall all soon have a cool early xmas prezzie of all The Tubes
your heart desires.

Toodlepip, be well.
