I received this show as audio CD-Rs from a trade. The sound was unbalanced and the tracking was peculiar (e.g., tracks starting a few notes in the tune, as if the tracking had been done on the fly). I merged all of the tracks, corrected these problems, and then separated everything out into new tracks, with any between tunes talk by Thompson that lasted at least a minute given its own track. There was a major flaw in the midst of track 10 that I chose not to fix (there was music lost in the drop out so any merge would not be seamless and I chose to not introduce a fade in and fade out leading to more lost music).

I was told by the UK trader from which I obtained this show that this was an audience source. I am not altogether convinced. When I listen to the band vs. audience the perspective seems wrong for an audience recording. The audience seems to be a distance away from whatever mic was capturing the band. Your opinions in the thread below are appreciated.

As I have observed in the two other '03 shows I posted yesterday, none of these tracks have been commercially released. The live 2003 tracks from the commercial release "Ducknapped" come from several UK shows from March 6 - 13 and the Los Angeles, CA, and Yosemite National Park, CA shows on May 17 & 25, 2003, respectively.

*A jarring dropout at 3:57 due either to a tape flip or a mic bump that momentarily disconnected the mic cord? Some music was lost.
