Archiving Live Options

[LiveForNow]

I stumbled upon this page today that serves as an archive for the band Local H among many others.

https://archive.org/details/LocalH

It's all their concerts, records, etc all archived in one place. You can stream and download the music in any format.

This would be a huge undertaking, and I unfortunately wouldn't be able to contribute, but I think putting all the Live recordings the community has on this site would be incredible.

That is the Live Music Archive (LMA). In order for a band to be accepted into the site, they must advise LMA stating they wish to be added (either via email, social media post etc.)

I have tried to get Live and The Gracious Few added to the LMA over the years but had no luck. I did manage to get Adam Taylor on the LMA but then he stopped making music.

2 questions, dangum:

When you tried to get them added, was it pre-Twitter/Facebook? Since some members of the band seem to be accessible on social media, maybe it would be easier to get an answer now.

Also, on a related note, do you know if Live ever gave their blessing to live taping? That usually seems to be a decent indicator of whether LMA is an option.
