One of the most insane things ever put to tape. This is a collection of 2 live shows. The first show is Wire's stint at the Notre Dame Hall following the release of 154. In typical Wire fashion, most of the songs were (and still are) unrecorded in the studio and offers you a glimpse into what may have come if the band stayed together for a follow up.
The second disc is Wire's performance (or what could be better described as a confrontation) at the Janette Cochrane Theatre. Here Wire taunts the audience (who grows progressively more restless) with new material that is among some of their most challenging. From the chaos that is "Underwater Experiences" to the free jazz of "Zegk Hoqp" this show is not an easy listen. Even worse (or better) the 8-track tape machine used to record this show was set up improperly so it was only recorded to two tracks.
Do not download this if this is your first exposure to Wire, but if you are familiar with their 70's period... Put this on and get ready for a crazy ass ride!

Listen, It's not rocket science. Look directly above the post you just posted. You will see a link. Copy and paste the link into your web browser. On your keyboard there is a button that should either be called "enter" or "return". Press it. This button is the key to unlocking the mystery of the download link.
Many blogs practice this same method of leaving links in the comments section.
EXCITING!!
Just wanted to say that you have a wonderful place here. Thank you for all the time you put in doing this, it is much appreciated.
I can't help but notice that you are pretty damn snippy with people. Granted they are doing and saying some stupid shit, but you have to keep in mind that the majority of people on this Earth are not very bright.
Kick back a bit.
Thanks again.
Best,
Nina
Thanx a bunch - I've been looking for this for ages 'cause I only own the vinyl - this saves my day!
My favorite: Piano Tuner
Was there; 19 at the time. Had to tell the tw*t behind me to shut the FU as I was annoyed by his restive commentary, so I may be on the recording.
Appreciate a link to download a recording of the performance.
thx.
