Van Halen - Milwaukee - Nov. 3, 2004 (DVD)

[ron]

Got this one recently...details:

Standard 2004 set list with the following differences. Sammy's solo was "Eagles Fly" and "I Can't Drive 55". Eddie's solo spot started off with him and Al doing the "Hot For Teacher" intro.

Filmed from the upper deck on Mikey's side.

There's a glitch in Eddie's solo during "Cathedral". I think I saw another glitch but I forgot where it was. (I think it was during Alex's drum solo. It wasn't as bad as the one during Eddie's solo though.)

PC Authored (DAS) with a menu, chapter points and some extras (Radio Commercial, TV Commercial, CNN Headline News, ....)

My upload is capped and I won't be able to seed this torrent continuously, so please don't complain if you're not getting any data for periods of time. Also make sure you keep your windows open so others can get this show!!!

I'll be offline for the remainder of the evening. I'll be back seeding in the morning. Till then this should allow everyone time to catch up. You should get about 42% of the total if you're caught up. Thanks!

[1st Due Truck]

[andy2randy69]

I was at this show and hoping someone would record it. Thanks for making it available. Now all I need is the Green Bay show.

[NewHalen5150]

Thanks Ron. DVD-downloaders seem to be increasing like crazy around here.

vh_20041103_dvd.torrent (43.7 KB, 49 views), size: 4312 mb, seeders: 1, leechers: 29

I've downloaded only a gig so far, but uploaded 3, so there's plenty more down the river when people start completing it. You can count on me for 10 more.

I'm surprised roadrunner hasn't cut my upload off yet. lol If they don't stop me I'll keep shit open until people don't need my seed any more.

[scotto]

thanks!

[Van Maiden]

thanks for the link! downloading it right now
I have a question though......
if I cancel this download, can I resume it from where it stopped?

[ron]

if I cancel this download, can I resume it from where it stopped?
Yes. I think this needs to be in the FAQ...

Damn, I think you might be on the DVD too! I just looked at the opening, & I think your pics are on the dvd, the ones of Lonnie & you backstage, with the drill, etc. Is that you? Pretty cool!

[1st Due Truck]

i haven't seen the pics yet, but yeah it probably is me- wow :yay: a life long dream come true

[zr1fevr]

If you are the guy holding the drill & one of Ed's guitars, then it must be you. I have seen these photos in another thread, they show a close up of the drill, Lonnie working on one of Ed's guitars, etc. Cool...

yep, that would definately be me :thumb:

[zr1fevr]

Matt, right?? In the menu, it lists backstage photos w/ comments. Shows all of the photos & even runs your story of how you got to go backstage, EVH playing Hear about it later, etc. Pretty damn cool for you, your on the dvd!

[frankm]

This is one of the best DVDs I've seen ... OK it might not be all that but it is really good and the authoring is most excellent and best of all ... I WAS AT THE SHOW !!!!! Thank you to all involved this DVD ROCKS !

[ron]

It saddens the soul to watch the seeders quickly drop. :( At this rate we'll start seeing re-seed requests tomorrow. (sigh)

Well, I hope this wasn't directed at me.... I think my 85 gb u/l amount pretty much speaks for itself. I am home sick, sorry for stopping seeding for a few minutes to see if the show came out, quality of it. Oh, btw, I started seeding again before you made this post, just so you know.....

[ron]

Well, I hope this wasn't directed at me....
Nope. I think we all know who the good members of our community are... :D

Cool, thanks, I had to take a peak at the HFT tease, first boot with it!

[ron]

Weird that with all the times they played it in legs 3 & 4, this one was the first to show up in the trading community with it. I had been eagerly awaiting the HFT intro to show up as well. Edward even pulls out the animal noises during his solo spot. Very nice. :thumb:

Yeah, I was at that show and Eddie was interacting with the crowd the entire night.

[patt5150]

Wow! Awesome show, wish I could've been there, but hey this is the next best thing! Thanks a ton for puttin' it up! :thumb:

[VAiN]

Thanks for this show! I'm just starting to download it....keep it goin guys!

Tampa 09.09.04 has the HFT intro also...I was there, 17th row center...the place went NUTS! It was very unexpected. That show was killer.

Thanks....

Thanks for this one, ron!

[MrFingers]

Thank you Ron for this one. Just got 100 blank dvds today so keep them coming everyone :yay:

[Van Maiden]

Thank you Ron for this one. Just got 100 blank dvds today so keep them coming everyone :yay:

hey I got a question...
is there a difference b/w blank CDs for audio and blank CDs for DVD?

[MrFingers]

Big difference, a single-sided DVD-R disc can store up to 4.70 GB, a blank cd with only store 700 MB. You can't use one for the other either. A blank dvd can only be used as a dvd and a blank cd can only be used as a cd. Hope that helps :thumb:

[EVH5150]

I'd also like to interject... the DVD discs also serve as a great backup tool. 4.7 gig capacity works great when you burn the disc as data, rather than as a video or something. You can take your lossless audio shows and back them up (8-12 discs worth of lossless material)... this way you have all the flac files if you need to seed later on... also if you want to trade/share a show, you don't increase the digital generation by one.

There are a ton of uses for a DVD burner and the media :)

Sorry to step in Mr. Fingers... you were right on... I just wanted to point out a big advantage to DVD burners :thumb:

[RedHead5150]

Now that blank DVD-Rs have come way down in price I use them for storing/playing MP3s on my stereo system. Only my newest DVD player lets me read data from the DVD - but it's really cool being able to store 6+ CDRs worth of MP3s on a single DVD.

Hell, i've got a SHIT load of 2004 bootleg VH on a single MP3 DVD (don't worry guys, I won't share/distribute the lossy files anywhere :D )

Hopefully soon there will be a car in-dash mp3 player that accepts DVDs.

FYI the player brand that plays the DVD-R MP3 is Toshiba

[EVH5150]

My panasonic does that as well. Nifty for when you're doing housework and stuff. I have a DVD with all the studio albums and 50 or so bootlegs and I just set it to random while I'm working. You're right, it works pretty well :)

[ron]

They do exist. Ex: http://www.mp3playerstore.com/stuff_you_need/dvd/DVD-386.htm

[EVH5150]

Didn't have to wait long for that one, did ya' bro? :D That's pretty cool though, cuz I bet you could burn an "audio dvd" with Nero using the FLAC files instead of MP3s. By the data storage ratio, you should be able to get a full lossless disc that will store just under 9 hours audio.

Or a few hundred hours of MP3 audio. You could have 1 CD for your car, one for your house, and one in a holster on your belt :D

[RedHead5150]

Freaking hella-cool! I need to keep up with tech gadgets!

Thanks, Ron.

[EVH5150]

Oh yeah... sorry, guess I'm the admin here...

KEEP IT ON TOPIC!!! Insubordinate fools :D

[EVHGolfr43]

Gotta say thx for this, its the best 1 yet. Reminds me of the concert in so many ways.

[mondola]

Thanx for this, Ron ! I am currently leeching it now !!!

:bow:

Something doesn't seem quite right with this torrent on my end.

I hopped on this within a day of its posting.

I am still only at 70%

I've downloaded 3G and have uploaded nearly 12G.

This torrent just doesn't seem to like me very much. Even right now with ample seeders I am getting only 0K or 1K/s

Im having the exact same problem...

[ron]

One possible thought is that if you don't have your BT port(s) forwarded through a firewall, you'll only connect and be sharing with "local" seeders, whereas if you have your BT ports opened up, you'll be sharing with both "local" and "remote" seeders and get a much better transfer rate...

If you're running your connection through a switch/router/hub, do a google search to find out how to open/forward ports on your system.

You can continue to use BT without opening the ports, but your transfer rate will be slower (sometimes much slower) than if you did.

[EVH5150]

I couldn't have said it better, Ron. Torrents are annoyed by Firewalls, Routers, or anything else for that matter :D

[ron]

I ran for quite a while without opening up ports on my router, so I know what it is/was like. :) It was a pain to open them up on my system, as it's an older model and doesn't support ranges. I had to enter each port by hand. Ack. But I was much happier once I had done it, and I'm sure the people that can now connect to me appreciate it too.

As I understand it, Azureus only requires forwarding one port (typically 6881) whereas other clients (such as BitTornado) require opening up more (typically 6881 to 6889). You'll need to look up the settings required for the particular client you are using as well as the specific router/switch/firewall, etc...

[RedHead5150]

My upload speed is always capped out at around 60K/s.. as many have enjoyed leaching from me at quick speeds ;)

And, normally I have no problem downloading quickly. It just seems that this torrent is discriminating against me and only giving me the slow seeders to leech off of.

I am familiar on how to open/block ports on my firewalled router. I can't imagine that there is anything i can do to DOWNLOAD faster, but I'm all ears. Which ports should I open that may currently be blocked? And. .what's the best client that I should be using to get maximum performance?

[EVH5150]

As Ron said, with Azureus, typically everything is run through one port (a little more convenient than, say, Bit Tornado). It's also my opinion that Azureus is the best client... at least the one I have experienced the best operation with. Ron? Opinions?

[ron]

Which ports should I open that may currently be blocked?
That depends on which client you are using. I know that both Azureus and BitTornado allow you to specify which port(s) it uses. Look in the config to see which port(s) you are currently using. (It's under "prefs" in BitTornado, not sure where it is in Azureus)

And. .what's the best client that I should be using to get maximum performance?
I think the correct answer to this one is.....Which ever client works best for you. Many people have had great success with both BitTornado and Azureus. So which ever works best for you is the one you should be using. ;)

[EVH5150]

In Azureus, you go to Tools => Options => Connection :)

If you haven't run the most recent update, then it's View => Configuration => Connection ;)

I have bitspirit 2! my download is very good!! (very bad with jamstothis :( )

This client is bad for jamstothis!? (esample:now result only 2 seed!!...
the download speed very slowww!!! 5kb/s,why?)

This torrent still looks to be going strong. Thanks to those that have stayed on to help out!

Thanks for the show Ron. It was awesome. I saw myself twice. Best Video I have yet.

[Hawkstar97]

Ron--this One Did Take Some Time For Me To Get Also---but--thank You So Much!!! (christmas Early)--i Will Continue To Seed This So That Everybody Has A Chance To Grab It---i Really Do Thank You So Much For Making My Days Better With This Kind Of Show!--hawk

[mondola]

Sorry peeps, been having probs with my computer. Finally sorted them out now, I hope, for the most part.

So I'm back reseeding this for everyone as well !

Apologies for the delay !

:bow:

[1st Due Truck]

ron, thanks so much for this show- i just finally saw this yesterday, and that is me (matt) backstage! :notme: i'd be interested to find out who put this together. thanks again ron!!

[jmiahp]

At 11:41 Pacific time there is someone who has 99.6% downloaded. I have noticed that this person has been stuck at this amount for about 1-1.5 hours without moving. I know that I've been giving him data, but his % has stopped. The reason I'm posting this is because I'm wondering if you are actually done, but due to restarting or something like that, it shows you still need data. I have had this happen numerous times in the past and it was always because my computer restarted or something and it has lost or "thinks" it lost data. The way to test is to stop you're d-load, then hit "force re-check". If it continues to d-load then you really do need data and just let it go. Otherwise it will move to seeding. The other way to tell is if your less than 100% but have WAY more data d-loaded than is needed and it just stays at a number.

Is it safe to post his IP addy and the program he's using? I shouldn't have to as he is the only one at or near 99.6%.

[Onfire]

We Need A SEED!!!! Im Having problems Getting this finished!

Thanks,
Onfire

[Onfire]

Somehow With That Dude Stuck @99.6% I Was Able To Complete This.
Now Iam Trying To Help Seed!

Thanks,
Onfire

[Hawkstar97]

I got my file open but there is nobody connecting to me??--I see me as one of the 2 seeders after I fired it up--I will keep this file open and maybe you will get connected at some time--good luck!---Hawk

[lukeman89]

could another kind soul open a window?? i had this downloaded earlier, but i burned a bad disk and was stupid enough not to check it.

[mondola]

I will reseed in a bit, later on tonight...
