Today, February 25th, 2019 we celebrate not only the 1998 Popmart Brisbane occasion 21 years ago
(the one that turned out to be a Rock show after all
), but also the 2500th bootleg added to the site* 
Thanks to all my colleagues, predecessors and uploaders for their work on the database in the last 12 years
And even more THANKS to all the tapers out there, without whom this database would have been as empty as eh...a desert sky
So here you can find this 2500th bootleg: 1998-02-25 - Brisbane, Australia
It's a copy of the original DAT recording made by Michael Dann. A decent 3,5 star audience recording with
moderate clapping and occasionally loud/semi-loud whistlers and screamers. But it's a very enjoyable gig...even
though it was far from being sold-out. available in both FLAC and MP3.
I identified three different transfers of this source. The main one being this DAT clone from the master.
A second one is known as "A Hot Night In Brisbane". A CD-R bootleg that was sold at the time in Australia
( @EthanD will recall!) and seems to be somewhat remastered. Unfortunately the files of this bootleg that
circulate have flacs that cannot be decoded properly ("flac fingerprint cannot be checked since it was unset
in the streaminfo block."
), so I don't think it's a good idea to share them...A third "unidentified" source (mp3 only) has been in our database for long, but it doesn't belong to the other
two. But although it is different sounding, it is still the same recording by Michael Dann.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In the coming month(s), I hope to finish updating the entire Joshua Tree Tour (1987) section.
Stay tuned...
Cheers
