cheers! I'm downloading it as I type.
Do you want a copy Quiff?
Also noticed the support bands for the tour have been announced, has any one posted the details previously? (Block text as per official site)

@Big Si - I don't remember any more - does your signature originate also from the same film where your avatar is from?
Sounds very "many"
as Leningrad Cowboys

Busted!!
One of my fave bands that some day I hope to see live for the first time ever!!
Going to the gig at Glasgow Barrowlands on April 24th, my first ever sisters gig!! (Despite them being the first band I ever got into when I was 14!!) Will they be gentle with me?

very nice indeed.
much better quality than that other one from the alive festy!
and probably the best audio quality recording of suzanne we have had so far!
you can really hear the textures and subtleties of the guitar-work and von's singing...
very nice.

It took me about 30 mins to get the webpage up and about 10 mins to download. Looks like it is fairly popular!

The video is definitely from Hasselt, Pukkelpop, 08-24-01.
I have a strong sneaky suspicion that the audio is indeed a studio version. It is definitely not from Hasselt, or any other of the festival gigs in 2001.

The following message was posted on the offcial "Sisters" site as of 2AM GMT
____________________________________________________________
"I'm taking this page offline sometime after 05:00 Central European Time on 25 March 2003, because millions of people are trying all at once to download 100Mb. Bastards. Our server's become extraordinarily slow. That's bad for you, and it's bad for us because we can't get to our mail in the week before a tour.
I'll put the page up again when some of you webmasters out there have volunteered to act as mirror sites. Requirements: very fast connection, unlimited bandwidth, 110 Mb free server space, a domain name which isn't offensive to me, and no financial interest. Webmasterly offers by email to
smokeandmirrorsite@yahoo.com"
___________________________________________________________
Dont miss this great opportunity guys and girls!
BTW - with me being on bloody dial up - it would take me over 7 hours to download this "gem" - bloody 56K
Knew you'd be pleased.....

If there are any other South African Heartlanders
(yeah right) or people I trade with who don't have a copy of it and can't download it let me know and I can make a plan next time we trade.

To save your bandwidth and help people get it faster you might wanna convert it to mpg wit tmpgenc available from
http://www.tmpgenc.net/e_download.html
It took my pc 15 min to convert it to a 45mb mpg and the quality is identical.

For any narrowband users out there: I've ripped the audio from the AVi file and converted it into MP3, currently I've got it at a high bit-rate, but that could be changed. If anyone is interested shout.
Maybe there is someone out there who can offer web space ?
