You mean there's a soundboard recording of the Aug. 29, 2007 (am) aftershow? Widely circulating?

I was at that gig. Indigo. The morning of 29 August, 2007. Not quite front row but close. If a recording of that show exists then I'd love to hear it. The only aftershow I was lucky enough to attend.

You did not check them b00tleggars for 21 nights stuff?

That is not the point - I want an official releaae, in the best possible quality. Most boots sound rather shite, and videos - I seriously cannot be bothered to search and download.

If sold at a reasonable sales point, this should perform well - there were at least 400.000 people attedning the concerts, and Prince really put a lot of effort in there as a performer, so should get great reviews.

You are limiting yourself quite a bit as even 'offical' stuff sounds like 'shite'. PR emaster anyone?

Did you listen to them bootlegs of that show?

.

You did not listen to any bootlegs or you are still limiting yourself quite a bit.

Did you ever listen well at a concert? Did you walk around? Did you check out the gear they use? Did you ever try to listen to a soundcheck? Record anything?

.

and videos -

.

Where was you 'smart' phone when you were there?

Did you even prepare for this?

.

If that is the case you do not really like music.

This aftershow had way less visitors.

The O2 stint was a while ago, people might have moved on.

21 double CD's, plus 7 or so aftershows? 10 discs?

Maybe the non-Prince aftergigs as well?

Add a dozen discs or so.

~60ish total?

.

Do you really think that 'they' think this will sell well?

.

Now listen to your b00tz while you wait for the Estate to get a clue.

Udo, you misread my words. I want a 2-3 Blue Ray disks set. Read my OP

Regarding not hunting for bootlegs anymore: for me, these times are over. I did so when I was young, in record stores with vinyls first ("psst, I am looking for something non-official by Prince" - "come here, young friend, let me get you something from the back room"), then CDs (in street markets etc.), then through the internet. And god knows how many concerts I downloaded then (PirateBay - remember that? , just to be disappointed by the sound quality in most cases.

So yes, I got lazy, and can't be bothered to search and download videos - so please, a nice compliation of the 21 nights in great quality would be awesome in my point of view.

But to each his own...

I'm exactly the same as you in this regard, it seems. I don't go seeking out boots any more, if one finds its way to me, I'll listen but I'm not actively looking. I do have the 21 nights on bootlegs as well as all the aftershows and some of them do sound great. But I would really love a 21 Nights set to get an official release in top notch quality, even if it was digital only I'd be all over it.

The only thing I won't spend out on, is anything containing vinyl. I have absolutely no need for those table place mats. Yes, I'm still salty about the Welcome 2 America release strategy

Would actually really love this as I became a fan during this era (after witnessing the Super Bowl performance).

Indigo Nights is one of my favorite bootlegs, to have all those after shows in soundboard quality would be incredible. It could be really amazing to have a set chronicling that historic run at the O2.

I feel that this is something that the estate would only do under some sort of collectors label, as it would be a huge amount of content. hopefully at some point the estate creates some sort of collectors label where things like this could exist.

How can a 2-3 Blue Ray set be called an SDE?

Sweet Disc Edition

If we were able to listen to the Eye release of this New Power Trio show...

What do we think about it?
