COOPS2009 NOTES FOR MS-175:
This is more like it !
A great film of a pretty nice concert don't miss out.
Remember even if you have some of the Daves films already that at best your copies will be 2 generations poorer than anything in the Masters series, so get em all.
These will be with original sound though many will feature as sound upgrades eventually with my two mates Yassou and Madhasse helping out.

LB NOTES FOR LB-1494:
some brief upfront taking d1t9 3:3x; excellent sound; different recording than LB-0020 based on different crowd on d1t1 drop/cut between cdrs, beginning of d1t8, d2t5
