1) all of my shows are DAO, and i only trade for DAO!!! 2) i use fuji cdrs. i will accept fuji, sony, or tdk. ask if you use something else. 3) DO NOT write on the cd surface! write the show date/disc # info on paper and include next to cd (post its work well) or write on the little plastic ring on the inside of the cd. 4) mail cds in sleeves in a bubble mailer. 5) i include setlist info and track listing, and would appreciate the same courtesy in return.
