We are planning a ceremonial coin toss within the next 24 Hours.

I have a two-headed coin you can borrow.... but only if you promise to call heads.

Are you willing to part with them, if someone creates a digital copy. I know a few posters have done this and that's how the ultimate torrent was created.

I need to go through some of them first. I know the radio signal would fade in and out. I think the radio station would play Art's final hour of the show the next night before the new show aired which might make it difficult to string these shows together. I will share if they are 'sharable'  :.

I say to you this:

Do whatever gives the show the best chance to be the product it needs to be. Do what's best for the show, we can handle it. Remember many were willing to pay for Sirius just for you and DM. I'm sure a higher subscription fee for those who choose it will not be a deal breaker.

And please don't sign a non compete.

I still think my idea of a free weekly Art Bell/Richard Hoagland podcast on Cats might be the best option

The next 24 hours it is! Maybe in time for the Gabcast?

Yes, it's a big decision, Art. I think the Dark Matter Radio Network is sounding really good. If you jump on board the skies the limit!

We KNOW you miss the show like we do!

And the music!

[Danger!UFO]

Opps! I think you can't use these songs now. Jigsaw maybe!

Anyway, you've got to love those songs. Great memories. New good times are ahead!

But IF Keith or Producer Paul DID record them for their own personal use ... it would be nice if they anonymously shared with "somebody" who could add them to the ultimate archive. That would serve PremRat right. 

Just hypothetically speaking here of course.... 

You might want to give The Pirate Bay a try:

So have you thought it over yet? No pressure. Midnight in the desert a go or no go? Or still thinking?

I'm curious do you think it makes a difference if it's spelled    Midnight  or  Midnite?

I can haz Art Bell.

[Dateline]

Get the pendulum out and dowse for an answer.   

[PB the Deplorable]

... Art, I believe that the legal question to Premier/IHateArtRadio and your lawyers should be - did you have all, or any rights to any of the shows prior to Coast being sold to Premier; even though, and while, YOU were still hosting Coast To Coast AM?

I don't see how you could not have had the rights, at that time, and to those programs, because Premier wasn't even on the scene...

Whatever legal entity that was sold (a corporation?) would have owned the rights to those old shows as a corporate asset.  The rights would have been included in the sale, unless they were specifically excluded. 

[PB the Deplorable]

Towards the end of his stint on Coast he and Keith made dvds of every thing on the old Coast website. I don't know if the dvds included the programs though.

Nope

If I -- err - I mean someone were to hypothetically peruse that alleged Bay of Pirates -- I theoretically would not find any shows that are not already presumably in the rumored ultimate archive.

[onan]

Dragons and sirens can be found in the pirate bay.

[phrodo]

Nope

Ditto - got it - my ex gave that to me for a Father's Day present once... one of the better gifts she ever gave me besides my Son .. and can vouch there are no shows .. and many of the links included on the disk are dead or incomplete now too.

[Zoxo]

HEY.... THE WEEKEND IS OVER MR. BELL... C'MON!  WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR 18 MONTHS ALREADY!! LET'S GO FOR A RIDE!

[Zoxo]

I have some serious "C.Crane" shopping' to do!!!!!!!!!!

[jazmunda]

I smell a big ol' bowl of home cooked disappointment about to be served.

Hi onan.

[Cwn Annwn]

I'm looking forward to an official announcement. I would like to give Art all of my money.

Whatever legal entity that was sold (a corporation?) would have owned the rights to those old shows as a corporate asset.  The rights would have been included in the sale, unless they were specifically excluded. 

That is what the assignment contract takes care of. It assigns or reassigns both physical and intellectual property rights.

Dragons and sirens can be found in the pirate bay.

What station plays that show/program?

[laserjock]

I thought Art had already decided to go for it, but no?

[ks3484]

I found this great FREE countdown clock. It's called - The Free Countdown Clock   there are:

93 Days 23:13:26 until July 16, 2015, 9:00 pm rolls around.
