Ive had a couple of random conversations recently,about a site that trades concerts by bandscalled something like burnt tree.I havent been able to find it ..any one know what it might be (these conversations always tae place away from pens in noisey bars)..Apparently Peter Hook is putting some New order gigs on it, I m going to have a dig and see what we might have thats any good ..So far there is the tokyo gig ,Trondhiem, ,Benacasim ,Cologne..whats the bbc one (london some where)
I wish we d recorded any of the usa tour ones cant think why we did nt
So bootlegs who s got any concert stuff?
concerts on the net
Moderators: Ancodia, markus, Pob, nickking
Don't know the site (I'm sure someone else will), but here remarks to the gigs:
Tokyo would be great. We've had small tastes of that through the soundspage as with Trondheim. Didn't know Cologne had been recorded, nice one (shame about the crowd turnout). I seem to remember you said you recorded Lowlands festival in Holland. Benicassim & London T&C Kentish have been made available previously, though of course high-quality would be nice. Oh and the Castlefield Manchester (Don Solaris) gig was recorded too.
One day I hope there will be an official 808 State live CD. Wonder if it should be from one gig, or a collection from one tour (like Kraftwerk's latest effort) or a collection from various years? Probably the latter.

possibly hooky is using this...
http://www.dimeadozen.org
formerly known as easytree - and definitely the best place to start if you want to start distributing live shows.

CONCERTS
Graham;
I have some concert footage of the 808 support act that you did when supporting the happy Mondays at G mex. I assume it was the same time as the stage was same as the Mondays live at G mex.
I have a mate who is going to put it onto dvd as it is on a VHS. I want it transfering so that it doesnt lose any more quality. But he is sorting out his marriage at the mo so has not had the time but it will get done.
the track list is:
cobra bora
Ancodia
The Only Rhyme That Bites
Cubik
Revenge Of The Girlie Men
Pacific 303
Running time 20-30 Mins

It could be because the Energy rave was a week later (in London) that you played live at?graham wrote:Yes It was Granada TV who shot the 1st G mex gig with the mondays.
I remember it being on a couple of times on late night tv or possably in two parts us and them.
Looking at that flyer how come we didnt do wembley and MC Buzby did,
strange times
I love a copy if you get round to it.
A downloable version for the site would be nice too.
Getting back to the orginal topic, I don't see any added value in putting any live recordings on that site. I originally thought it would make 808 some money, but since it's a sort of semi-illegal Torrent site, it will probably be off the air soon. Just as well upload those gigs to the 808 site.

Yeah, if it makes the gigs available for those that haven't heard of 808, then that would be a good thing, so most definitely a good idea.graham wrote:I guess my thoghts were more to do with getting across to the unitiated.
there are so many that have never even heard of us .
of coarse we could have it for our site as well . talking of which it must be time for a new upload?
