    Quick question but is this an official release or a bootleg?

    bootleg. Somebody just took the audio from Melbourne and pressed it on vinyl, which is why things like this are almost always made in "Europe". Not many vinyl plants here in the U.S. would accept a job like that anymore for fear of copyright issues.

    Thanks! I wonder what audio source they used for this pressing?

    BEST BUY "Give Way" PROMO CD: CD (silver) > EAC > Wave > Flac [524mb] - http://db.etree.org/shn/27757

    SV042: Sony Music Australian promo > cdr > dEdit > cdr (first 1.5 minutes from webcast > dat > cdr) > flac - http://db.etree.org/shn/23660

    pre-FM --> DAT --> CD-R > CD > WAV > SHN - http://db.etree.org/shn/23886

    or some other higher quality / lower quality audio. Imagine if Pearl Jam / 10club released this one officially on marble vinyl? Oh mama!!!

    I wouldn't be surprised if it were mp3 sourced. I somehow doubt that someone running an illegal boot operation in Europe is really all that concerned about audio fidelity. Probably used whichever source they found first on the internet.

    I'm not a huge audio-smarty-pants, but it doesn't sound (when I play it) like anything other than a really well-mixed soundboard pressing. If there's something lossy about the audio, I can't hear it. Other than losing Brain of J. Grrrrr…

    So, it's a bootleg pressing of dubious quality with missing songs?

    Forgive me, but why would anyone actually want this?

    who said it was "Dubious Quality?"

    Just got this in the mail tonight.
    Wasn't really expecting much so I was pleasantly surprised.
    Doesn't sound awful and the show is great.
    Nice pick up. I'd say if your on the fence about it. Get it. I'm enjoying it.

    What's up with the "suck on my dick" thing? I'm not really feeling that.



    *edit* For clarification, it says that on the album artwork.

    Kind of, it's just one riff from the song played…

    I noticed Brain of J wasn't on there either...but I Got Shit is, and it's not listed on the "SMD" insert...

    When I get some downtime over the holidays I'm going to make some proper artwork for this. It's a fantastic LP and deserves more than a plain white cover.

    Once it's done I'll post a pic of it and because of the size the paper has to be, I'll print a few copies of the sleeve and if anyone wants one I can mail it to them.
