A Question on Bootlegs

[Bob Lennon]

Colm,
I just received an offer to buy cdr's of the Astoria gig. I'm 100% against
this.

With trading, and no money changes hands, especially if it's not officially
released material, I'm all for it.
I also don't like calling tape/cdr trades "bootlegs" but the people selling
this stuff are turning it into bootlegs.
The best way to stomp it out is to not purchase "boots" but get them from
someone on the list willing to do a trade.
