Bootlegging Jane's Addiction (article 2017)

#1 Post by Artemis » Wed Jun 23, 2021 2:42 pm

I just came across this article by accident. It is a long read but I thoroughly enjoyed it, read it in one sitting- no breaks! :lol:

Has this been posted here before? Is the author a member here or on Xiola??

Really enjoyed reading this!

I was obsessed with Jane's bootlegs for a few years and the author really captures the exhilerating feeling of discovering and listening to them.

:rockon:

I owe alienonacid a beer.

I lost so many tapes/cd's over the years..But I remember in 91/92 going to record conventions and buying audience bootleg tapes. It was actually fun listening to shitty sounding boots with audience chatter!

Bootlegging is so 20st...

I remember when NINJA tour happened : a new full concert video was popping on YT every day, although back in time, we could kill for every badly recorded tape. :lolol:

I threw all my bootlegs in the bin about 10 years ago. to be honest, I haven’t missed them, but about a month ago I watched a full show someone posted here and it was brilliant.
