I have a couple of Features songs that I would like to upload for others to download, but I do not know how to do so. Could someone help me please?

Just go down to the browse section and hit upload. As I have found out, only mp3 files work...not mp2s....color me stupid. It make take a while to upload, but it will eventually.

I tried to upload "The Way It's Meant To Be", "There's A Million Ways To Sing The Blues (And This Ain't One of Them)", "Exhibit A", and a couple of other treats; but, the website that I attempted to upload to seems to be full. I really like listening to them a lot, too bad you don't get too...

My friend Mitch came up with the hypothesis that "There's A Million Way's..." is about emo. "I hear you whining on the radio, I see you whining on TV...There's a million ways to sing the blues and this aint one of them. But I guess Id have to be in your shoes to really understand. If I were you, I'd try to get away. Maybe go and have some fun..." I hope to God that's what it's about, because I fucking hate those whining little emo bitches. "The Way It's Meant To Be" goes "Little fingers, little toes...It's the little things that matter most, like the monograms on your clothes...And thats the way its meant to be" I love Matts lyrics, theyre so clever. "That's The Way It's Meant To Be" is more punk and "CBGB" sounding than their other stuff, due in part because Parrish isnt heard as much. I like this song the most of the two and really look forward to seeing them play it again soon...at the Exit/In maybe?

Yo yo yo, Mr. Dawson, I'd love to hear those recordings you've got there...keep trying, I guess.

I also had a thought that "...Million Ways..." might be about emo music.

Whoa, I didn't recall seeing anybody recording at the Boro show (that's where I assume you got the first two). I bet that site's reached it's file size limit.

First the problems with Digsy's mp2 file of Skirts (anyone gotten that to work?), now this...

The mp3 site is killing me softly without its songs...

You may like grandma's yard gnomes, but I've seen Rock City. Remember it.

If I upload it as a wav file it may work but that file would be hella-huge...sigh...

I also turned the music from the "Me & the Skirts" video into an MP3 using some ghetto analog stuff. Alas, I cannot upload to that site.

What's going on? I remember back when the site first opened, we had about 40 or so songs on it. Did we take up too much space then so now we can't upload that much? If that's the case, then we need to take down my horrible attempt and some of the 12th & Porter setlist (the Beginning EP songs, Buffalo Head & Oh My Love would make sense) and put the new stuff up.

Is there a way one can use the downloads on that site to burn a cd? If so, how?
You're so fucking money you don't even know it

yep.

depending on the software you have you can either drag and drop the mp3's into your add files window in the burn program, or if it's older you may have to convert the mp3's to .wav format first. I have easy cd creator 5 by roxio and it will automatically convert them for me. WAV converters can be found on line pretty easily.
