houston we have a problem..

my beloved dat has had an injury. after a few days of loading problems, i looked inside the tape area and noticed a loose part. shook it once and it came out completely. i'm gonna need to send this in to pro-digital. i'm not worried about that. i am worried about my next 2 shows stars (nov. 21) and wintersleep. omg the fates are conspiring against me. missed stars the last time they were around and really don't want to fuck this one up. fortuneately i think they only play 80 min sets encore included. soo looks like no tape switch for the md. wintersleep on the other hand, i remember jud bragging to me that when they do headlining shows they can play for up to 2hrs or something.
