Attn all ye Tapers: TIME TO GET UP!

Festivarian Events Telluride Bluegrass Festival
1

As one who just this weekend took all the Telluride stuff off my garage floor, cleaned it up and stashed it until next year, I TOTALLY understand how hard it is to get back into the swing of things. But I’m hoping some of you wonderful tapers are settling in enough now that you can start posting your hard-earned prizes for the rest of us.

I’ve found just a few shows on archive.org (three Fruition shows and the main stage Greensky show (HOORAY!!). So maybe you’re posting things elsewhere. If so can you please point me in the right direction???

THANKS for the info, and BIG THANKS for what you do for us!!!

I would love the Elephant Revival set.
(although I always struggle downloading music, why can’t we go back to the old B&P’s? LOL)

Above is the link to the archive search result page for “Telluride 2017.” I downloaded:
Tim O’Brien Band
Dierks Bentley with the Travelin’ McCourys
Greensky Bluegrass
Fruition
The Cleverlys
Freddie and Francine
All of those are from the KOTO broadcast, apparently uploaded by KOTO. Each one is one long cut, not divided into songs, which is sort of a pain, but the sound quality is very good.
There’s a couple of Fruition sets posted by a taper, but that’s about it. I’ve been hoping some more would appear. Some artists, like Peter Rowan, apparently don’t give permission to the archive. I’m pretty sure Sam Bush, Yonder, Hot Rize, and Elephant Revival are OK with it.

Hey John and anyone else wondering the day one tapes from this years Telluride are on bt.etree.org and I presume that the others will soon follow. Thanks again to all the tappers.

All 4 days of the festival are now up on etree. There is only one performer that did not allow taping. See if you can guess which one.

Jason or Norah…Norah or Jason.

I’m betting Jason.

It was Dispatch.
Am guessing they probably didn’t let KOTO broadcast the show as well.
