2010 tour bootleg: Halmstad, audio x 2

by

Time flies – 10 long, windy days passed since I had posted the last bootleg here on RXB. So now it’s a high time to present you two “new” audio recordings from one and only concert. Sweden’s Liverpool, Roxette’s hometown, småstad or whatever expression you would like to use – it’s all about rainy and cold Halmstad which got a little bit warmer on August 14th.

These two recordings have different quality, but I do hope you will appreciate hard and very exhausting work of two groups – Czech fans and so-called superduo Justyna & Kai 🙂

The first bootleg (let’s call it Czech) includes all songs – the last ones from Gyllene Tider are ripped from the well-known YouTube videos. The second one (it could be Polish-German one) has a nice cover plus all the songs except “It must have been love”, “Joyride” and two GT’s classics like “Sommartider” and “När alla vännerna gått hem”. So it’s up to you to choose which one is the bigger, the better.

To quote the Man:

Thanx for yesterday. A truly magic night that we’ll never forget. Rox were great, GT were great, the crowd was awesome!!!! Cheers, P.

P.S.
St. Petersburg in audio is still waiting in the line.

2010 tour bootleg: Moscow, video

by

So it’s another day and another bootleg. It will be hard to beat yesterday’s live album with any other audio recording that I have, so today I chose a video bootleg for a change. It was recorded in – suprise, suprise – Moscow! So Russians did it again. Not only recorded the concert in a very good quality, but someone (was he/she Russian?) recoreded this nice, sometimes a little bit shaky and too-many-heads-on-the-screen video. Not everything is there (Kalinka-Malina is missing for instance), but well, you cannot have everything, can you?

What can I say? It’s just worth watching. And if you know the person who did this, please let us know – we would like to write it was You, Dear Fan (though no money for copyrights, sorry 🙂

If you have any creative idea how to call it or what kind of cover it should have, please feel free and drop a line in the comment section!

You will download 2 torrent files. There are two versions of this video bootleg. One is over 4 GB and it is divided into separate songs, the second one is smaller, about 1.5 GB and everything is in one part. Enjoy!

“Gessle over Poland” audio bootleg

by

So here it comes. Afer one year of preparations and waiting we have finally managed to end up our works on yet another bootleg from “Party crasher tour” – to be honest – one of the funniest Roxette fan experiances in the 21st century.

After more or less professional recordings from Prague, London, Amsterdam and Stockholm (with Marie) as well as live tracks on amazing double album “Gessle over Europe”, it’s time for Warsaw. Per Gessle and his band came to Poland to play just one concert in Stodola rock club in Warsaw on April 22nd. In fact Poland was the only country on the tour list where Roxette/Gessle have never played live before. Some sources say that there were around 1,000 people in the audiance, but on the other hand I was informed about 700 tickets sold. Who’s right, who’s wrong? Who really cares?

Back to the topic. It’s a bootleg and it’s a compilation. So the quality differs from song to song constantly. Sometimes it’s good, sometimes it’s not so good, but that is how it works when you use five different recording sources. Give Slawek Sztul – he made it all possible (‘na na na’ on “The look” is his! 🙂 and Blanka ‘Blunek’ Pentela – she has designed all the covers for “Gessle over Poland” included in the set – a big hand. I cannot forget about Ela ‘Blue_girl’ Krysinska – thank you for your help and contribution. It was amazing to work with you guys!

Here’s the set list:

Stodola, Warsaw, April 22nd 2009
01. Sound Of Music / Dressed for success
02. Drowning in wonderful thoughts about her
03. Stupid
04. The party pleaser
05. Wish I could fly
06. She doesn’t live here anymore
07. 7twenty7
08. I have a party in my head (I hope it never ends)
09. Late, later on
10. Listen to your heart
11. Do you wanna be my baby
12. Opportunity nox
13. Doesn’t make sense
14. Church of your heart
15. Dangerous
16. Joyride

Encore 1:
17. C’mon
18. Are you an old hippie, Sir?
19. The look
20. It must have been love

Encore 2:
21. (I’m Nnot your) Steppin’ stone
