Sadly, though the LD list still functions (barely), most of the conversation and activity has moved over to Loopers Delight on FaceBook where people can post pictures of instruments, racks and pedalboards more easily.
Saddest of all, the website barely - which is a great resource and represents a wealth of information and history — barely functions at all any more.
