Tree begins on: January 7, 2004. This is the date by which everyone should be mailing their hard drives.

Requirements: 1) 160 GB external USB 2.0-or-Firewire Hard Drive 2) Fill out the below form & tape it to your hard drive 3) Incurring costs of $10.00 for postage, insurance and delivery confirmation to the Leader or Main Branch 4) Include a money order for $10.00 to be used for postage, insurance and delivery confirmation for your hard drive to be shipped back to you.

If you want to calculate postage right now, check this out.

Print and fill out the following form and tape it to your hard drive! Make sure to use tape that comes off cleanly or use rubber bands. This is done so you get your hard drive back and not someone else's or if there are problems with your device that we can contact you quickly!

Right click here and choose "save as" to download the above file.

I have also taken a moment to make another (optional) label for the package (seen below). It has pretty colors that will hopefully attract the postal worker's eyes (hopefully it will be read). Print it and attach it if you like, it can't hurt. You can download it here.

Every hard drive returned will have the same identical data on it. I will not be making customized data compilations. You can simply delete the files that you do not want once it is back in your possession. Also, you will need and external hard drive case...I will not be accepting "naked" hard drives because I don't want to disassemble my own external hard drive to put yours into. I am currently using my external hard drive for the master Flaming Lips files, so it would make it impossible for me to copy them.

* As a bit of a supplemental web page, I wrote a small (an obvious) article on how to connect your computer to your stereo. This way you won't have to spend precious time burning the data as audio CDs or DVDs to play them on your stereo.

Legal Note: Live, Demo and Promo recordings are legitimate audio files for me to distribute. But, studio recordings are not. By joining this hard drive tree, you agree that you personally own the original CS, CD, LP (etc) of such a recording. For example, "Nobody Told Me" appears on the John Lennon tribute CD "Working Class Hero." You must own that CD/LP/CS to retain the file for your personal collection. Such files are only made available because some people do not have proper equipment and software to make 24/96 wav files. Upon receiving your hard drive back, you must delete any studio recordings that you do not have the right to possess within 2 days.
