craig, you have the VH las vegas 1984 DVD? I have it on CD but not DVD. I don't have many DVD's. LOTS of VHS though.. Its been 6 years or so since I stopped collecting. I think I have everything in existence on CD, but not much in the way of video.

Better than the Sao Paulo '83 shows? it's better quality but it's not proshot...considering that there's only 1 other 1984 video in circulation (montreal) it was a pretty big find. being in the VH bootleg circles, like vhtrading.com, i've come across a secret "society" of people that trade unreleased shows amongst themselves...shows that will never see the light of day unless you somehow get in that "society"...with an unreleased show of your own..i know it sounds crazy... some of these people have proshot shows from the fair warning tour, etc that they were told they can't trade...and haven't traded i can only hope that some day this stuff is released...

I saw that Vegas show pop up on ebay a few months ago... I should have snagged it but the seller got kicked off quickly. The bizzare thing with ebay they would cancel someones auction that say was selling the US festival yet there were 10 other people selling the same show and not getting pulled. Used to drive me nuts...

I've got Montreal on VCD, great show. Eddies sound is PHAT in that vid. As for the so-called un-circulated shows,, not sure how much I believe of that. I heard from a good source that the entire Don Kirschner series of videos was destroyed in some warehouse somehwre. Thats why you only see those 3 songs from Oakland floating around. Seriously if someone had them they'd be circulated or printed to make money. Pro-Shot from Fair Warning other than the Don Kirschner vids?? I don't believe it... although I would sell my left nut for one if they existed.

I've got tons of stuff from Fresno too.. The opening show I think from '79 has maybe the best DLR performance ever,.,

Ok, Vom Heres one very rare.. I have on vinyl the '77 Pasadena gig,, but its unlike any version I've heard circulated online.. or on cd.. its completely uncut with over 30 minutes of dead-air during the set break. The only cuts are to flip the records. Its 2 albums in a plain white sleeve with a photocopied insert. Very low budget but the best version of this show I've ever heard in sound or length.
When I mean dead air, like you can hear the band talking to eachother roadies walking around and people and stuff in the back ground.
