Remember Pasty?
Back in 1999 when Lost & Gone Forever came out, our tour manager was a former Guster bootlegger (he made "tapes") named Pasty. Well, Pasty's all grows up and just had a (10 pound) baby named Max. He's turned over his vast bootleg vaults to us and we're releasing them on our slightly redesigned website, a new one every month or two, free to download or stream. Right now, he's got one from April 2000 in Portsmouth NH up there. If you're into that sort of thing, enjoy.
