I have always believed forums should be used for discussion, and not all discussion is positive - that being said, I think some of you people have become spoiled with all of these high quality recordings that the band has so graciously allowed for the past decade. To think nothing like this had ever been done before (at least on this scale) when they made headlines back in 2000 - releasing all 72 shows from that tour and putting them in retail stores for everyone to buy at a reasonable price. It was awesome then, and with technology now, it's even more awesome that we can get instant FLAC digital downloads (and of course mp3) or you can get a CD mailed to you in a fairly quick fashion.
So to everybody complaining about the quality - it's only been 2 shows - and I have the KC boot - and think the quality is pretty good - with the only knock being Eddie's slightly flat vocals, if anything. That's not Kufala's fault.
Just relax, and be grateful. If you want to bitch about the quality, then go for it, but just try not to forget that they don't have to offer these - I would hate to have to go back to the days of trading crappy sounding audience recordings.
I couldn't agree more.... I bought about 40 of the 2000 boots simply because I was excited that there were soundboards for about 15 bucks... before that we were trading tapes 2 for 1 or paying ridiculous amounts for a bootleg copy of 7/11/95...
It's ok to complain but.... i don't know.... maybe I'm just easy to please, cause I even loved the Newark show

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Kufala just the distributor? They have no part of the mixing.
They do provide outstanding service, but I don't think they mess with the engineering of the boots.
You are correct. Kufala simply produces and handles the distribution of the CD's. They have NOTHING to do with the mixing. I've yet to hear who's doing the mixes for this tour, but it's someone who works for/with the band.
The two I bought last night sound great, so Kufala wasn't blowing smoke in their post about the sound quality for this batch.
Now, what has become of the Cleveland boot? On the order page for the 2010 boots, if you cursor over the area to the left of the Noblesville CD, two yellow boxes appear. I guess this is where the Cleveland order links were supposed to be. Hopefully they get that worked out today.

Are the solos that Mike did before the show on the Columbus bootleg?

I pledge my grievance to the flag.
"...could someone get that guy some right guard? maybe some febreeze?...i smell some teen spirit up in here."
Heh, "Right Guard" guy was a few seats behind me.

Was he as smelly as Ed suggested? I was too impatient to wait for the CD.
HAHA. I couldn't smell him, but I was wondering why he took his shirt off.

It's 2PM, that's close enough to 5PM and blow off the rest of the day at work and head home to listen to Cleveland (again).
When 'Why Go' starts on the St. Louis bootleg and Jeff's bass kicks in....that's some epic sounding shit right there.
