World of Warcraft

Edge and Morpheus in Booty Bay
This site hasnt been updated for a while. That because of the game in the title. Never thought I’d be so immersed into a game. It’s actually my first MMORPG I play. Always was a big fan of the warcraft games, and i wanted to try this out. Never thought I’d like it as much as I do. I joined the Starblade guild, a very friendly bunch of people.

I am running around as the Tauren Druid Morpheus on the European Aggramar server.

Dead at Etree

Listening to the new JGB releases (see previous post) renewed my interested in the Grateful Dead. It was quite a while since I listened to a few complete shows, but I did so over the weekend. Got some very nice stuff from etree.org. Especially check out the ‘Charlie Miller’ seeds, they’re excellent ! There’s also a wealth of shows available at archive.org, in lossless and mp3 format, ready for use on your Ipod ;).

Reel Reviews

Ever since I got a U2 special edition Ipod in december, I have been checking out various podcasts and was seriously questioning what all the hoopla was about. I do like the slashdot podcast, but it’s not much different than browsing the slashdot site. The Reel Review podcast really adds to the site’s content. It’s like a really good radio show, though with one big difference, YOU decide when you want to listen to it. It features reviews of classic (and not so classic) movies. So in case you’re interested in that kinda thing make sure to check it. The new edition has a review on Wim Wender’s Paris Texas, which made me want to order the DVD right away ;). Shows you how much love for movies goes into this podcast. Really looking forward to the Apocalypse Now cinephile series.

Warren Haynes

Warren Haynes
Great times for fans of guitarist / singer Warren Haynes ! Over at the bit torrent site of etree.org, there are now several shows up for grabs. A few different sources captured the New Years show Gov’t Mule did. Am listening to that one right now, and it’s spectacular. Very fat guitar sound and excellent bass. Have never listened much to this band, but I certainly will now. Also over at the etree site is the Xmas jam he organised on dec. 18th. This jam is a great opportunity to get to hear some lesser known acts and bands and WH’s acoustic sets are always a pleasure to hear. I just ordered his Live At Bonnaroo CD. His version of U2’s One is worth the price alone.

Also a lot of other jam bands and Dead (related) material at Etree.org. Make sure to check it out in case you’re interested. And when you’re new to all this stuff (flac torrent etc), read the tutorials and faqs on the site. They’re very helpful.

UPDATE:Warren’s Jam from 2-2-2005 can now be downloaded using bit torrent from bt.etree.org.
