The Blue Rodeo Concert Trading Network (BR-CTN) is an online meeting place to trade, share, and discuss live recordings of Blue Rodeo. There are many people out there with some really good recordings, and this is the first place of its kind for fans to get together and trade them!

This is a forum for fans who love the band, not a forum for profit. Buying, selling, reselling, and uneven trading (e.g. 2 disks for 1) will get you banned from the network and blacklisted amongst your fellow fans. Respect the band and encourage them to do what we love by buying all their albums, attending all their shows, and collecting as much gear as you can! When you've done all that, you've got the right credentials to join us :-)

Our goal is to ensure the band's music is preserved and shared as accurately as possible. To that end, please avoid sharing MP3 format files or anything else in a "lossy" format. We much prefer SHN, FLAC, and other "lossless" formats. They're easy to work with once you get started. Lastly, check all your trades for errors before sharing and always burn DAO (disk at once) to avoid irritating gaps between songs.

Finally, thanks to everyone who has encouraged us to get this started, shared so generously from their personal archives, and helped spread the word to fellow fans! Our thanks include Jim and the band who gave our idea the green light and helped kickstart our launch. Thanks also to Graham Grant and Donald Masecar for their generous contribution of superb concert photographs! In both cases, their contributions are protected by copyright and used only with their permission.

Let's get trading! Sign up for a show you'd like to add to your collection or dig into your archive and offer up a great addition to the community.
