It's the same deal with the bootlegs as with the studio LP...worth an occasional spin.  Don't lose sleep over not hearing it.  The Reading Festival boot mentioned above would probably be the best one to locate (I may have a copy somewhere). Good point about Gillan.  I can see that.

The power behind this show is astounding.  It makes you realize what a (sorry to say this) museum act they became shortly after their late 90's reunion.  A few of their shows early into the reunion were solid (I was at a  handful myself and heard some others), but they still don't compare to this one. Also, unlike ...
