What i noticed about 'I want to break free' from the second night is very strange difference between 'A day at the stadium' boot and this Audience source Aud source- Just before Brian's solo in the middle:Freddie's last words is 'But I have to be sure' and then i think his microphone goes off BUT 'A day at the stadium' source -He sings few lines more just like everything is ok.. What is it? I throught 'A day at the stadium'doesn't have any overdubs

Legally I can see that we're on less shaky ground ripping off Wardour since they ripped it off in the first place (depends on how you view bootlegs). But morally I see no difference, Wardour put some work into this (people acknowledge that it is an excellent unknown new source) and yet here we all are stealing it from them. Shouldn't we be buying the CDs from Wardour? Or encouraging them to make legal paid for FLAC downloads available?

When did bootlegs become official? Thousands of bootlegs have been shared on QZ, and I haven't seen anyone coming in and hinting that it must be deleted. It's always been legal to share bootlegs here. And I'm not the original owner of the discs. Some guy shared the bootleg with us in this thread link A few people asked to make a torrent and I did my job. Nothing else I did with this bootleg.

The Real Wizard wrote: As much as I'm a collector and love releases like this, the reality is bootleg companies cannot be legitimately compared to actual record companies. All these companies do is press a recording to CDs and release it on their own watch, without consenting the people who own the rights to the songs. Thus bootlegging is illegal in most countries. There's a good reason why most bootleg companies are located in Japan :-)

The Real Wizard wrote: Brilliant ... thanks for torrenting this. No seed yet though. It sounds like they did a bit of hiss reduction on both nights. But they do sound great overall. Clearly both tapes are from the same taper. No doubt, this is one of the best bootleg releases in a long time. Nice to see Wardour coming up with new tapes, unlike most labels who just bootleg things that have been shared online for free.

The Real Wizard wrote: This bootleg is a fantastic listen. It's interesting to hear the live mix, and the front of house guy playing with the faders to get everything right. Deacon hits a ton of bum notes in Tear It Up.

That said, you're best to download the remasters by our beloved Stark, as he EQ'd them to lessen the effects of the compression that have crushed the sound into a giant box-like waveform.
