Just venting. Came with the train from Apeldoorn, where my parents live, to Groningen, where my can find my crib. Apparantly some lamer opened a small part of my bag and ripped my Silvertide jewel-case. Now that wouldn't have been too bad since the Silvertide cd was in my discman at the time. However, when I left from my parents place I took my Total Guitar Blues Backing cd with me, and since I always lose my cases I put it in the Silvertide case
That cd contained a whole bunch of wicked blues backings in many different styles and keyes, and ofall my cds thats the only one I hadn't ripped to my harddrive yet. And ofcourse re-ordering a UK mag from Holland is a pain.
Major bummer. :evil:
Which issue was it from?
November 2004, the one with the White Stripes on the cover, 'double cd blues special'.
I'll take a look this evening and see if I have it.
Ultra cool, thanks a lot!
What kind of world is this, where people steal guitar backing tracks! Sick, sick twisted little bastards!
Good luck Arjen, hopefully Nick will have it in his archive of 4 billion cd's. What is it actually, 3,000+ ?

Sad thing is that they probably wont even listen to it. Probably just stole it to steal it. Lovely little world we live it. Hope you find a copy Arjen.

who steals cd's? What an odd thing to do.
Guitarin' isn't a job, so don't make it one.
I know, it's lame, many Dutch recordstores don't even have real jewel-cases on display. Even after they removed the actual cd from the case people still went on to steal empty jewel-cases. It's absurd.
The concept of stealing an actual CD nowadays completely boggles my mind. If you really don't want to pay for music, it's easy enough to get it for free downloading it and have very close to zero chance of ever getting caught. Not that I advocate doing that, of course, but the risk is tiny compared to actually stealing a CD.
Stormy: It is actually the chance of being caught that drives cleptomaniacs to their constant stealing. Sad but true.

Sorry to hear that .. sounds like a real good CD. (Just hearing the description, makes me want to go searching for that mag too.)
