Me too. Never as long as 3 years though, the longest has probably been a couple of months.hansx wrote:Great to see you here, Heiko. I occasionally had a non-TD period in my life.

Also my thanks for the great job you did.Whoopysnorp wrote:After nearly 5 years have passed since I had to stop the Tree & Leaves series due to personal & legal issues, it's good to know that TD fans still discuss a thing or two about which concert or disc has stood the test of time. This really was a labour of love, especially when some of the concerts got a commercial cd release (the nice 'Bootleg Box' and the not-so-nice 'Bootmoon' series) I knew that it was worth it. Back then I didn't even have a PC (only a solid Hifi system with EQs and Denoisers), and had to send out the majority of my tapes/CDR's to trustworthy people who remastered them for me ('3N' and Wouter being the two guys who did the most outstanding work, any other amateurish sounding remastering can be blamed on yours truly alone )
As someone mentioned earlier in this thread, some of the tree material was sourced directly from digital or analogue master copies of radio or broadcast stations (TT9 London 1975 or TT17 Berlin 1980, or soundtracks like Vampira, Ein für allemal, Daniel etc.), while some audience recordings were presented here for the first time (mostly in the 'Leaves' series).
When I pulled the plug in October 2006 I had nothing else in store as nearly everything got released within the TT/TL series. So it was a lucky coincidence that it had to stop at that point in time, especially since what started as a little fan project had become a much bigger thing which went out of control (trolls selling CD counterfeits for big bucks like Edgar told me). Believe me, it's much nicer than just being a fan than being a part of the music business. At the end of 2006 I sold my two copy stations (and fell right off my chair when I counted a total number of almost exactly 100.000 burned discs), and never looked back. In fact, I haven't listened to any TD music since 3 years or so (cold turkey! ), but after this long absence I might try out some of the new stuff which is available for download. As I type this I'm wearing my "Ricochet" t-shirt (it still fits!), so there's still hope
