    Think it means it is now available on Jungleland torrents.
    It's a lot of hassle tbh.
    Buy it here, I have no connection but have used before.

    People will disagree and I don't want to get into arguments about the rights and wrongs of buying bootlegs. I can't be bothered with downloading. I like to buy a few bootlegs with the work and artwork done for me.
    I bought live Bruce tapes on O'Connell bridge in the late 80's and still have them. See no reason to change.

    such a well composed letter, and you can imagine those humble words coming from Bruce.
    It was my first time at a Bruce & E-Street band gig and I will always refer to it when it comes to telling people how a professional music act should go about their business.

    Nothing to do with torrents, there is a direct download link right there. Slow yes, difficult no.

    Click the white 'To Download' link on the right. Then download the .rar file. 337MB and not great speed, but that's it.

    Can anyone recommend the best (or any great/reasonable quality) bootleg of a show off the current tour?

    cheers

    09-12-2012 sirius braodcast from the Apollo is best sound-wise for obvious reasons. Rock in Rio is out there too, I have the video downloaded but not the audioalone as yet....

    how or where do you get these Dr Nick?

    I find that Springsteen Bootlegs is the best. And whilst I haven't listened to anywhere close to them all, the Prodigal Son at Winterland boot from 1978 show is my favourite so far. Would love to hear other recommendations. The Sirius one should be there too, I liked that one at the time, but listening back to it now it shows that it's the first performance of this tour.

    That aside, whilst I haven't commented very often in this thread, can I thank everyone that has. It's been absolutely brilliant following this thread over the past 2 years. Seen five live shows over the course of this tour and this thread has been invaluable in getting me into queues, into pits, and into accommodation. The knowledge, banter and insight here is better than some dedicated Bruce forums I could mention. Thanks again.

    Mostly get stuff from Jungleland now but that looks a good site. Torrents can be a pain.

    Thanks for that link, took about nearly 4hrs, but not as slow as a torrent i had off it, still trying to d/l a week later

    I'm not familiar with Jungleland, as PB is blocked on eircom, yeah torrents are a pain for things you actually want

    Got tickets for both Cape Town shows, so glad it's not outdoors @ the godawfull stadium (Stadium itself great, stadium sound for gigs abysmal)

    The 2nd show had sold out within 2 hours, the first night still had standing left when I checked, but no seats.

    Can't wait :D

    Nice, thought about planning a holiday around it but chickened out!

    Determined to see him in the US at some point although well aware that the European gigs now have a much better vibe and atmosphere yet it's just something I want to do.
