Michael Stipe often talks about a performance being a moment in time that the band and the audience are sharing together. It is because each show is a unique moment in time that the work of bootleggers is an important historical record, not only for those who were there but also for the countless fans that weren't.

UPDATE: 2008-04-16: Fixed 2 typos on the tracklist for the Royal Albert Hall Inlay (thanks to Javier for spotting). Added a new Royal Albert Hall Inlay for Patrick's Audience recording. UPDATE: 2008-04-11: Added Cover for Royal Albert Hall with 2 versions of the Inlay listed a different number of tracks depending on the split. Also added a variant on the SXSW cover again with different tracklisting and a different cover for the neglected Mike Mills. UPDATE: 2008-04-09: Added CD Cover SXSW 2008. Also fixed a typo in the description on the Rolling Stone Inlay and DVD Cover. Please Download the new version and delete the old copies. UPDATE: 2008-04-08: Just noticed a small typo in the show description of the Live Rolling Stone. This effects the DVD cover and CD inlay. Will fix and re-upload after work today. There new cover for another 2008 show posted tonight as well. ::archive::
