Chances are, 90% of the people on this site have heard that particular performance but it doesn't mean that we recorded it, or that have downloaded it, or that we are posting in other places for people to see.

Thanks Mark, but I don't think there's any intention amongst some here to be fair to me
And actually I have NOT listened to the recording Evil has posted, so am one of the ten per cent.
I've heard Meat sing FCOL live, I have it on a legitimate recording. That's enough for me. As I have said, I do not feel the need to hear everything Meat has ever done, nor to collect it. I have a beautiful recording of FCOL, I have the memory of hearing it live. Evil can throw up as many links to bootleg recordings as he likes. I don't give a rats ass .. he is wasting his time on some UNholy crusade which is pointless, (and has frissons back to when we were launching the Single Campaign!).
Bootlegs are not my style, never have been. I don't record them, don't seek them out, don't watch them when links are posted here. It's just my way, and people wanting to prove it's not are just wasting their time. If Meat sent me that recording and asked me to listen to it .. probably I would as I believe he has moral rights to it. Failing that, I do just as I say.
When leaked fragments from HCTB were being posted on here I did not click on them. My choice is to wait until Meat is ready for me to hear a new album as he wants me to hear it. Others can do what the hell they want, but I wil not be pushed or tempted into doing the same.
I save to go to see Meat perform in concert. I acknowledge I am lucky to have seen so many shows, although I have worked all my life to make my own luck. I have not listened to any of the bootlegs from this tour. I don't need to. I can still hear wonderful performances ringing in my memory, I can still see Meat triumphant on stage. That's enough for me.
