Just wondering if any of your recordings are up for downloading! Can’t wait to re=live the fest thanks to your hard work!
There’s a section for tapers to post links to their recordings on the forum. Keep an eye there, on Archive.org, and on bt.etree.org (which has been down for a couple of days) and tapes will start showing up!
Edit: link to tapers/traders section here:

A couple of shows have started popping up on etree. Greensky, Dave Rawlings, Del.
Really hoping to find the L’il Smokies main stage set AND the Run-a Muck set (Hippie? Didja get that one?).
Okay…not looking to start a complex techie discussion, just want L’il Smokies. So…I went to that link, saw the set list, clicked “download” and got a small 12kb file. So…I presume i need to download a bittorrent app (for Mac OSX) that will open that file? Anyone have any safety/security issues with that? Do I also need to sign up for an etree account?
Heard the run a-muck set only very faintly…someone had to be in the tarp line for run a-muck–hope that set shows up somewhere as well… :wave :thumbsup
Oh he got it alright!! He is still working on it but said (and I quote), “The Lil Smokies audio I just downloaded is over the f*ckin top”.
I am not a Mac expert, but yes, you need a bittorrent app to download the file. The files are usually in flac format, so you might need a converter to change from flac to MP3. That does impact sound quality.
Yuk. Two apps…finally am able to listen, although yeah, the fidelity isn’t great. Tomorrow or whenever the etree site is up I’ll be able to get the set list again. :flower
Being somewhat of a Mac expert the apps that you need are Vuze BitTorrent client for downloading. And BootTunes and xACT for converting from flac to Apple Lossless, you don’t want mp3’s
P.M. me if you have any questions.
I got a similar message. I can’t wait to hear that sweet soundboard recording!
Downloaded (with vuse client), converted to mp3s (well, I didn’t know any better Maple Al, may work on that), titled, and…listened to. Ahhhhh!!! Thanks! 
what Maple Al said. I’ll have some studio time a about 10 days. I want to do this recording justice. Be patient please.
:peace
Soling is doing his wonderful job putting up the full day recordings on e-tree. Days 1 and 2 are up now.
Thank you Soling.
And another big thank you to Soling. All 4 days are now up on e-tree. Now am eagerly awaiting the Smokies’ show at Run-A-Muck.
All 4 days are up on etree! To include set-lists (for most). Those Tapers ROCK!
