Anyone up for a monthly group listen?

[TerrapinMonkey]

Would anyone want to do a group show of the month club? We all decide on a show and pick a time to listen together? I don't know if there's a platform for something like that, but a group chat during it would be fun too.


We could even vote on what shows we want to hear. Could be tapes or official releases.

I am in for that. We were starting something similar on TDC and it is fun. Everyone choose a show, in rotation

[YankeesDMB41]

Absolutely. The chats during the drive in shows here were always fun.

[cry_minarets458]

used to do these back in the day here in some of the chat threads and in dmbc. LPs or Listening Parties. Was a great time

[OneSweetMonkey]

I'm in.

[Vacubsfan]

I'm in as well.

[dpduke5173]

For sure. Was fun when we did these in the past.

[TerrapinMonkey]

Awesome. Organization is not my strong suite. I hate to put that on someone else since I started the idea, but I will certainly fail at follow through. Happy to help get started on the first one if anyone has any ideas, but know myself well enough that it will not have longevity if I'm in charge.

hell yeah

[bowa36]

I'd definitely be up for these again, they were fun...I can't remember what website it was, but there was a live chat we used to use.

[TerrapinMonkey]

Let's plan one for February!

[TerrapinMonkey]

Maybe we all pick one show. Throw them in a poll and then listen to winner each month.

[DMB1JW]

Sign me up also.

[Xcacel]

A spinning wheel instead of a poll?

[haiku.warrior]

we could all fill out a form nominating one show. most votes wins and if theres a tie you can stick em on a wheel I guess

Start with Live Trax 1, and keep going in order.

I've been doing that for a few years in the months leading up to the tour. Since I'm going to The Innings Festival in Tampa here in March, I started the other day. Getting through LT 2 now.

Not going to exclude official releases from anyone's list, but hoping to focus on some lesser known shows. Certainly don't mind if we have some official releases too.

I like this idea too. Just randomize it to keep it simple and not have to wait on replies.

Everybody writes a show and then the OP spins this wheel

If anything, a listening group should be non-Live Trax. That sounds like a personal listening goal to listen to all. Everyone has the Live Trax at least streaming, everyone knows them, not much new ground to cover.

Sound good. I'll be master of ceremonies (aka wheel spinner)

Ya, didn't want to shoot that down, but unless someone really loves a LT and wants to have a party to listen to it with, I'm hoping to keep these shows a bit off the beaten path. Quality will still be somewhat important. But with the Sirius shows, new tapes floating around, Xcacels remasters, there are plenty of lesser known shows that we can make a solid list of.

[TerrapinMonkey]

Since the bullies are coming in hot and heavy, I will no doubt be booted from here sooner than later.

I would sincerely like to do a listening party and anyone still interested should just email me

[ForkInFork]

I'm def in for this, would be super fun. Discord could work great for this, where we can all be in type or voice chat and listen to the same stream.

Genuinely blows my mind the amount of flack you’ve taken today, been lurking a couple threads and wow people are so sensitive, dear lord.

I probably shouldn't engage with them and regret doing so, but my god it's insane. I hope you're sincere and thank you for the kind words.

I am so unfamiliar with it. I could spend some time figuring it out though to set it up.

This would be a good way to pick imo. Trying to remember what that instant message website was, you could create private rooms.
