Have you heard it? Is it good quality? What are the highlights?

I think most people on here already know where to look for these things. I've already found this but haven't downloaded it - I just wondered what other people thought of the recording.

Well, I'm biased with this one as it's one of my recordings. Obvious stealth job, but I'm happy with how it turned out. For some reason, Sayonara is the stand out track for me. If only for the reason that Shane sounds slightly more coherent than the studio version. I was about 25 feet from the stage, so as the crowd got more rowdy, I was tossed around a bit.

Some Pogues fans that are not live recording afficionados have said that they thought it was good quality, but it's always best to let your own ears be the judge.

Dimeadozen, I aslready talked about it. Quality is mediocre
