Anyone know what happened to Vegas Vic's Tiki Lounge? I've enjoyed his music for quite a while now, but as of a couple of weeks ago, the website returns an "under construction" page, all the feeds are gone, and his Live365 page hasn't been updated in a while either. Did something happen to ol' Vic? For reference: http://www.vegasvics.com/ Hope everything's okay. Cheers & Mahalo, |

I tried my weekly download of Vegas Vic and it's not on itunes at all. The last time Vic responded to one of my e-mails he said he would continue if he received good and regular feedback. I think lack of that may have contributed to the stoppage. Only one person knows...Vic please post and let us know if you're gone. |

Argh! I've emailed him a couple times asking where the podcast went, and since he seemed to be starting a new multi-podcast show "Sabu Martinez, Part 1" it looked like he was going to continue it. Figures it went away the day I went to grab all the older podcasts I was missing, I listen to them all day at work! Perhaps we should create a repository somewhere of all the shows? |

I've got the 69 podcasts in I-tunes - I'll be happy to share. Unless Vegas Vic doesn't want to keep this stuff out there? Vic? |

I'd be interested I had these on my work PC and had to reformat to test an image and did not back up. Figured I could get them the next day. Low and behold, they were gone. I'd be very interested. |

No more Vegas Vic! It's so sad! Don't know what happened, but miss it! Really, it was one of the best damn pod casts on the web. I learned so much about exotica - well, mostly everything, from listening to Vegas Vic. I had some of the pod casts, but not all of them down loaded. Now, I'm not so tech savvy, and I'm trying to figure out how to save them from I tunes onto a disk so I don't loose them for ever. I knew it must have been a lot of work putting together a regular pod cast - I was always amazed he had taken the time to do such a fine job. Nothing good lasts for ever. Maybe we should all e-mail him till he starts re-pod casting? |

Create a new playlist in iTunes (I call mine "Burn List"), click-and-drag the podcast into that burn playlist, then record away!

Now that I've checked everywhere that I've kept them, it looks like the only ones I'm missing are these: 1 - Vegas Vic ventures into podcasting (6/1/05) Vic, are you out there? Do ya mind if we make a page to keep all these excellent podcasts somewhere? |

I listen to my Vegas Vic & Java's Bacherlor Pad podcasts quite often. I do the Vegas Vic ones do pop back up. If it weren't for these two, I'd miss out on a lot of great tunes & bands. |

Vic! where are ya man?! His Live 365 show lit the tiki flame for me and the podcast has provided many great memories the past few years. My top three in order are:
good stuff! Vic, I hope you're well! [ Edited by: Gilligan 2009-05-29 20:28 ] [ Edited by: Gilligan 2009-05-29 20:29 ] |

I'm willing to send burning media, pay all postage send and a little Aloha to make it worth your while. Please feel free to post to this thread, or email directly. Mahalo Roger aka; uKeHaCk |

They downloaded quite easily for me, which was a real relief, since not only was Vegas Vic's Tiki Lounge down, so was all of Live365.com and consequently, life was looking rather bleak. So I download the collection of podcasts yesterday and then today - HOORAY! - not only was Live335.com back up but so was Vegas Vic. Life is good.

Wow! The first 67 shows was on torrent?! I missed that. Any links?! Vic and I used to keep up with each other as we started out podcasting about the same time. When his shows started to fall behind, I emailed him to ask how things are going. He just basically said that he was just getting too busy as an investment banker to do the show. I truly do miss the show. My wife and I used to listen every Saturday morning as we started our day. So many wonderful memories. Would love to get a copy of the whole series to share with my son someday. Piko |

Just go to Demonoid .com and search for "Vegas Vic's Tiki Lounge - Podcast Episodes" I don't want to make a hyperlink in the message board here to a filetrading site like that... though I feel pretty sure that, while downloading CD'S and DVD movies from Demonoid is not quite legal... downloading Vegas Vic's old shows from there is likely not an issue. There are currently 3 seeders there for it, so your download should probably go pretty quick! Cheers! |

Bump. Vegas Vic's podcasts were a great way for him to share some of his personal collection of vinyl. This allowed many of us to hear vinyl that we otherwise never would have heard. He had a very interesting collection which he picked and chose from when he made his podcasts. This link http://www.neowin.net/news/demonoid-returns-after-nearly-two-years-popular-bittorrent-tracker-is-back-online reported that Demonoid (which was hosting a link for a full package of Vic's podcasts) is back in service, and lo-and-behold my search found a hit with one "seeder" so I'm going to load a torrent downloader and see if I can pick up the podcasts. |

The Archive.org listings are up to Episode 37 now. I'm guessing the guy who uploads them does so a couple episodes at a time, over time. He still has a way to go before getting all of them uploaded there, though. So far gettin a full collection from scratch has to be done episode by episode, from a number of sites around the net (and maybe via torrent). Here's a list of all the episodes, just for reference - Vegas Vic's Tiki Lounge Show #1 - Vic ventures into Podcasting |

I used to have every single episode of this podcast on my hard drive. Then it died. I wish all the episodes were available somewhere as I only made it up to episode 40 before I lost them. |

I am still looking for podcast #27. As I understand it, #13 never existed (superstition perhaps?). A search brings up several archived entries, but the are really of podcast #28 - mislabeled as #27. The final one I have located is podcast #69. Any assistance would be appreciated. |

I was able to find the Internet Archive list. Is there any place or way to get the remaining podcasts? I just found this resource and I am starting today with episode #1 and would love to listen to the whole collection. |
