this is completely FALSE!!!

first of all: the 'no sleep til hammersmith' lp was NOT recorded at
hammersmith. it was recorded at:
leeds queens hall on march 28, 1981
newcastle city hall march 29/30 1981

second: vic maile recored all three shows in their entirety and compiled the
lp from the best performances of each chosen song. the majority of the lp
comes from the 2 newcastle shows. the extra tracks on this expanded remaster
are taken from the very same source tapes as the original lp, newly mixed and
digitally mastered...

so, far from 'bootleg quality'...and as close as 'a complete hammersmith
show' (!!) as we'll ever get!!!

i have no interest in selling this, i don't run a mail order company, work
for the band/label/mamnagement, etc...i'm just a fan who was surprised at the
lack of interest in this excellent release and now even more surprised and
disappointed at the level of mis-information circulating about it.

stuart at stuarthamilton.f9.co.uk: where did you get your information?
