I've lived my entire life in Toronto, I don't feel disrespected and ignored. I'm not disappointed. Life goes on!
Hell, you guys have been waiting almost 50 years for a Stanley Cup. Waiting a day or so for a Stones bootleg should be a piece of cake.

19 years acutally (Montreal '93).
Still... we've tasted more gold than any other in the world for olympics hockey, including the last three. Kinds different than having Canadian players win your Stanleys for ya

What has it come to when bitching is ok, but bitching about is not.... a world gone mad... only one thing to do

Boring choice imo, as this tour has been amply documented in official releases already. Thumbs down.
Amply?
A 45 minute heavily edited album and a movie where the songs have been butchered to f**k to the extent where one of the few watchable moments of the entire 90 minutes is a helicopter shot of the stadium.
Compare that to a full-length remixed show clocking in at two and a quarter hours. All for the price of a half decent coffee.
For the first time ever, the Stones have sanctioned the release of a unedited show from start to finish.
That'll do me.

Isnt this show is all on film/tape too? Maybe they will do a "pair up" release with full blown video to go with the audio?... maybe?... possibly?... would that cheer up some of the grumpy grannys?
yes, no and probably not!
Why do you so quickly say/think they wouldnt want to give this to the Eagle Rock people and let them do a DVD release? If the whole show is there, it would begreatAWESOME!!!! and give us 1981 in an unedited (not LSTNT, which people seem to hate)(I like it mainly for the ragged edges of the performance, which would still be there on this release, without speeded up guitarsand choppy editing).
Why do you think no?

Well, seems you're the glass half-full sort. No harm in that. I had just hoped for a more interesting release after the glory of Brussels. This is just way down on the excitement meter for me.

The gap between HTW and BS:
Bummer
Congratulations! You have just discovered an inevitable characteristic of an mp3 file! The compressing process creates these, if you want it or not. If you show me an mp3 file with no silence at the beginning and end I pay you $100.000.
Agreed. And I appreciate the congrats...it may be the only one I get.
The difference here kurt is that these gaps are much bigger and therefore much more noticeable.
If I started with a wav or flac version of this, and converted to MP3 myself they would be FAR FAR less noticeable than they are on this recording (and Brussels as well). I do that regularly for listening...
I would love that $100,000 though I cannot claim it.

That period has been accessible since 1981....to anyone who gives a shit.
I'm not spending a lot of time thinking about it, Ill just wait for the next release...so what's with all the bitching about bitching? Not you Gazza, but some here seem so offended when some of us express disappointment over anything.
What is this? The Kennedy Family forum and we're not supposed to talk about Mary Jo, drugs, sexual indiscretions?
Jeez...bunch of nilly-willies.

I know, but taking that line of thought to it's logical conclusion, they may as well not release anything after about..oh, 1967 - because pretty much every tour has been heavily bootlegged since, and in almost all cases (1970 being the only exception I think) there's a definitive audio and/or visual document available which represents that tour.
I dont think its worth getting worked up about. They never said or even hinted that we'd be getting material that hasn't circulated. They also never said or hinted that they'd release El Mocambo, so the outrage by some that it's NOT that show is nonsensical. They've also said they'd release 5 or 6 of these over the next year - so why the haste by some to condemn the whole exercise as a waste of time or complain that a certain tour has been overlooked when there are still several more releases to come?
Like a lot of collectors, I would expect that these releases will be more or less stuff that I already own. The only two criteria I can then realistically demand of the project is a) is it good value for money and b) have they made the effort to make the sound better than what we have.
The answer on both appears to be yes.

Brussels wasnt going to be topped for the simple reason that there was NO advance notice of it.
Once they announced that there were going to be several releases, then people start anticipating and speculating to absurd levels. Which only leads to being underwhelmed when they DO release anything.

I dont think there was any meaningful footage of Brussels... so to compare these 2 it is kind of apples and oranges. I am looking for a legit reason they wouldnt do it, not a trend.

I was talking about the Toronto Maple Leafs, not whether a Canadian team in general won a Stanley Cup. And Canada hasn't won the last three Olympic gold medals. Sweden won in '06, Canada didn't medal.
