Well, I guess we’re overdue for an update. The site has posted so much news lately, that the last update was buried four pages back. We have added quite a few shows, to the point where we’ll be out recording at least fifteen concerts in June alone. Death Cab won the battle of June 10th because a generous reader mailed us a ticket. Oneida was removed from June 13/14 because the Kitchen has denied taping permission, but fortunately we have permission to record Oneida at the ToddP outdoor event on July 12. In terms of the Rooftop Film series events, we are still waiting for permission from the show producers.
Unconfirmed dates are indicated with asterisks (**).

Not complaining, but why did you not tape any of the three Raconteurs concerts in NY?
The Raconteurs responded negatively to a request to record by another taper.
I’m happy to report that the asterisks were removed from The Ladybug Transistor on June 14 because with an assist from Merge, we received permission this morning. Thanks LT and Merge!
