F***ing Amazing!
The crowd really get into this and sing along very loud.
Shame the sound quality isn't quite loud on this boot, the band seems distant.
But nonetheless, amazing.

    Yeah I am. What do you mean by most if it is mp3?
    Is the sound quality better in another format?
    I downloaded the whole bootleg of this concert.

    MP3 is compressed. Some loss

    FLAC is lossless. best sound for downloads.

    That said , don't believe there were official boots for that tour , so it's likely a fan recording, You take what you can get.

    Better than nothing! Beggars can't be choosers.
    Any bootlegs in FLAC format?
    Thanks for clearing that up for me.

    Just another question...are these boots better quality than the bootlegs.org.
    I am listening to the first show in Melbourne Australia from 2003 on bootlegs.org and the sound isn't bad at all.
    Just wondering whether to download here or on the site in the given to fly thread.

    Some on .org were ripped from an official boot. I also understand .org has limited space , so most have been converted to save space. Or they are fanmade boots. The ones on the other site are ripped from the official boots , so no less from conversion.

    I was there and the crowd was awesome that night! The place was like this super old and tiny hockey rink. Everyone felt like they were on top of the stage. I remembered a huge buzz going around before the show about Neil Young being there. Start to finish this show rules! Great Long Road! Amazing Wishlist! The second encore could have been one of the coolest concert experienced i've ever had. I mean to see Neil Young absolutely rip up the stage with songs like All Along The Watchtower, Act of love, Cortez The Killer and Rockin' in The Free World! Peter Frampton joining in on a couple songs! This show was definitely something special and everyone new it.

    RIP to the Toledo Sports Arena!!!

    Yeah, mp3 vs flac isn't going to make much of a difference for that show. I've heard it and it's the tape that's the problem, not the format. Not that I'm knocking the guy that went to the trouble of recording it for us all, they cracked down on recording that tour and released no official bootlegs. So it's just an old school "guy in the building with a tape recorder" bootleg. Nothing you can to do improve it really.

    I was at that show but can't remember any of it.

    Any thoughts on which bootleg on PJBoots from the 04 VFC tour is the best in terms of sound quality?
