Thanks to the generosity of bt.etree.org and B&Ps from many people, I have been able to build my tape trading library. I'm almost always up for a trade or a B&P -- if you see something on my list that you like, just ask. For B&Ps, standard McNichol guidelines apply (see http://www.mcnichol.com/bnp/). For trades, I am currently using either TDK or Sony discs and expect quality discs in return. I burn at a maximum of 24x, even though the media I use is rated up to 48x. If you would prefer I burn at a slower speed, just let me know and I'll be happy to do so. I always verify that the burn was successful by checking the MD5s before I send it out. I do not write on your discs. I prefer to trade SHN or FLAC as opposed to audio. I do not trade video or MP3. I've really been on a Derek Trucks kick lately, and love getting new shows from him or where he's featured in other shows, like with the Allman Brothers Band. I'm also especially interested in any good bluegrass shows and as much Hayseed Dixie as I can get my hands on. If you can help me with any of these goals, please let me know.

Especially if you're new to the trading community, please feel free to contact me for a B&P from my list. I love helping other people get their collection started.
