Great upload from the Surprise tour -- it´s from an assisted listening device, which is second to only a soundboard recording. It has great emphasis on some of the insturments you would not otherwise hear very well

this does not seem to be from an assisted listening device, based on the posters description or the sound, which has people talking, still its a good post.

I agree that we Paul Simon fans are not too good at taping, any dylan or springsteen show would be up a hour after the show ends!

Perhaps that´s because they´re enjoying the music too much!

I´d Love to tape but I always figure it´d spoil the experience for me (the most important part), messing about with tapes etc... especially since it is always stated that it is prohibited.

I´m more than happy for others to tape & let me download, and I thank them eternally for it, but nothing can beat the live show in my humble opinion.

I agree with you. It´s not the same if you concentrate on filming or taping. I really Love to hear and see clips but I would be too distracted from the concert, when having to think about that.

And as much as I respect Dylan I always wondered about those fans, who have to have every single show and comment on all the talk he did and when he played harmonica on what song. It´s a bit strange for me.

I think in order to get a recording of the current S&G tour we have to wait until they are playing Japan. I can imagine some crazy japanese fans with ear-implanted recording devices...

Seriously, I also think that I would not be able to enjoy a show when i would record it.... But I am so grateful that other people record them and even share their recordings for free.

I have about 80 minutes of the first Brisbane show recorded,plus little snatches of corresponding video as well. Not much use to anyone. The audio/video police were out in force and tapped me on the shoulder to put away my equipment,so I was unable to get Paul´s brilliant solo set:-(You are correct though-it´s a pain trying to record under those conditions,and enjoy the show at the same time.

It´s a tough call... you want the memories to play back over and over but it can be distracting. I personally record very little and when I do I just press the button and never look at the screen again, hoping that my hands won´t be moving the frame out of place! I´ll try to get one or two videos from tonight though.

My thoughts exactly Nikki. When I saw S&G in 1983,I had nothing to remember the gig by-no photos,or recordings. I would Love to come across a recording or photos of any of the 1983 Australian concerts,but in those days,they actually confiscated cameras etc,at the gate of the stadium/venue. I recorded Paul´s 1991 Brisbane concert and the first Brisbane show this time around,but I did not take a great amount of care in the process. I simply pressed record and put it back in my pocket. I didn´t want anything to detract or distract my enjoyment of this event,just something to assist my memory years from now.
