All 4 shows, remastered in CD or vinyl.
I actually quite fancy this in a retro 'I was there way', despite picking up the shows at the time.

Ouch. Still money well spent though. |

| Actually it was £90 I paid. Even worse. Was it worth it? Probably. Still not as good value as for 3 songs for £5 in 1991 though. |

Fraid not.
I went to London for a week to crash at a mates. He didn't go.
Went for a curry. Then went to the gig. Hung around watching Graham Coxon not realising he was the guitarist from Blur. I thought it was the name of the band - since naming your band after a person was all the rage in those days (eg. Franz Ferdinand). I didn't really enjoy Graham Coxon because I was so eager to see the Pixies, but later I got into his music and now prefer him to Blur.
Smoked a joint with someone in the crowd and had a chat about how great the Pixies are. They came on, rattled through the set and then I went back to my mates flat who turned up shortly after throwing up because he felt ill because he hadn't slept all week because I was crashing on his floor.
Oh.. and someone stole my nice tour t-shirt in 2010.
The Bluefinger era was better. |

The original discs are pretty much monitor mixes with a bit of crowd blended in, mixed live on the night - the discs I got at the time are a really dry mix.
This new set has apparently been freshly mixed & remastered. It's on spotify already but I've not compared them yet.
I can remember very little of the gigs, I know I definitely went the night of the Lovering magic show and think I was on Joey's side but I would have been absolutely baked in those days.
I'm sure we all had good fun! |

| Turned up today, nice set - CD version comes packaged in 12" book format rather than a small box. Expected a bit more from the photo book. Time to have a listen :) |

| Impressed with this set, sounds completely fresh. The mix is nothing like the releases at the time - much brighter and clearer. Night 3 is todays favourite - an absolutely ripping Something About You from Charles :) |
