Rufus Wainwright audio material

PLEASE NOTE:  I no longer list my television and live show material, please ask for list if interested. I'm also not interested in trading computer video file clips. Only DVD or VHS video items recorded direct from television airings, please. :)


*Page last updated January 3, 2005 (I'm very behind in updating, if there's something you're interested in trading for that isn't listed, please let me know as I may have it)

To set up a trade, drop me an email at: strangelittlegirl (AT) adelphia.net  note:
replace (
AT) with @ Preferably, you can also send me a private message on the Rufus Wainwright message board - username "sweetness". I also collect and trade The Smiths and Morrissey, Ryan Adams, and Martha Wainwright among many other artists.  I'm particularly interested in trading for any rare live Ryan Adams video footage.

Below are links to two of my other tape trading pages:

Because of the amount of requests I've had recently, I'm no longer doing blanks and postage. Very sorry about that. :( However, if there is a show you'd really like because you attended, drop me a line and we can work something out.

None of the items listed are for sale, only trade. 


Live recordings/interviews/radio sessions/misc. on cdr: 

Please note: On rare occasions I have been asked not to trade shows I've been given,  these shows are not listed. If you send me a show that you do not want traded, it's important to let me know otherwise it will be listed and traded freely.  Note: The vast majority of these shows are mp3 sourced.
