On June 20, 2003, PG's manager gave permission for Brock Butler's solo shows to be hosted at the Archive:
Hello, I wanted to thank you for adding Perpetual Groove to the Internet
archive. We are slowly building our database and getting more and more fans
involved every day. I love the archive and refer new fans to it all the
time. I would like to add our lead singer, Brock Butler to the archive as
well. He is very active as a solo artist, and has a decent trading scene
taking shape. In fact, I have received several emails asking if I would
grant permission to let folks upload to the archive.
If you could, and with my permission, under the Perpetual Groove A/V
Recording policy, please add Brock Butler to the etree archive. Thanks so
much!
Groove on,
Ben
