This avatar is legendary and needs to be retired.
One of the greatest things about this forum is that I met BradM through this forum . His history here, dates all the way back to 8/28/2001. His 23,000ish posts paint a great picture of who he was, and cover an incredible amount of shared musical experiences. Some of his year-end posts would highlight all of the wonderful events he had attended (and recorded) that year.
Many of his postings were either a solid "head's up" for an upcoming show, and generally followed by a download link to a recording that he made so everyone could either hear or revisit the same great things he was often experiencing. The time and effort he put in to his archive.org contributions is pretty astounding.
BradM always helped drive this forum. There will be a big whole left behind from this event.
Back to the avatar. BradM chose this avatar on that day in 2001, along with his username, stylized capitalization within 'BradM', and eternally signed-off posts with a consistent "Aloha, Brad". This was his persona here, and it never wavered during all this time. Addressing him as 'BradM' ILR always felt natural.
I will forever identify him through this avatar.
It's been nearly a dog's age since I've posted around these parts...
(I've had a crazy few years dammit)
I missed the request period for the Trey Band show in Toronto this May and would love to buy a few extras from any who have.
Let me know if y'all can help.
On an unrelated/related note...I'm way happy that this board is still keeping the vibe goin.
I'll be around more often.
