...I feel for you.

Yep, I've got a nice backup too. I'm gonna leave my backup-of-my-backup drive at my mom's crib or something just in case of some unforeseen scenario.

I would have taken her equipment, smashed it, and said 'yeah that's what happens when I'm around dumb b*tches.' I hope you make her pay for that. Pulling cords after a show isn't exactly an accident is it? Geesh.

I would seriously try to get her to pay for the drive replacement, if you can't finagle one under warranty. She needs a lesson about technology, there is *no* excuse for her carelessness.

the bright side: it was your ext. hd and not your laptop....

sorry man

Damn Raf, that sucks. I hope you can recover that data.

I hope you can talk that girl into at least replacing your HD, as even though it was an *accident* (due to her total carelessness), it is still 100% her fault.

poke her eyes out man.

Sorry to hear that d:raf ...I know how much time & energy we all put into perfecting our music library. After hearing stories like this I'm seriously considering wrapping my shit in bubble wrap. Good luck, hope you can track her down.

They have these "new" Tuff drives.. at the apple store has them.. they clam to be able to take a fall from a decent height (while not running) butthey said no height was acceptable while running.

I dropped my heavy ass 500G Lacie backup drive and its totally busted... (it was in the middle of a big mix meister BPM job) and I lost everything.. luckily it was a backup drive and I have all the tunes backed up 2 more times... so Yeah.. BACK UP often..

these stories make me sick, and that is why I still lug 1 bag of vinyl as a backup.

You should have asked for her cell phone and dropped it in a drink -oops... "paybacks, are a bitch"
punosion 6:20 PM - 30 June, 2006
Damn, dude! Sorry to hear about that.
anewsome 9:00 PM - 30 June, 2006
And people call me crazy for lugging around backup laptops and hard drives.

:(

Lucky you have a backup, just a taste of disaster.
mightyjunebugg 10:07 PM - 30 June, 2006
I would not have resisted the irge to snap her neck...you have amazing self control!!!
Dj KaGeN 10:19 PM - 30 June, 2006
she probably pulled that 'poor me' and was half way cute and knew she could get away with it... It took him a while to find out that it was actaully mucked - and she had long since bolted!
