Have the folks bootlegging the bootleggers been bootlegged?

They really hope to sell this kind of rip off for 40 euros ?? Anybody willing to pay that kind of money for a Stooges recording will probably know that the source is mp3 and can be bought legally elswhere !

And looking at the cover art, I wonder, wan't the picture taken by "MC" from this forum ?? It really looks like his shots.

You don't like it, don't buy it. A rip-off to you is a treasure to others. Sure, you can buy it elsewhere, but the money is not going to the band. You're not supporting the band.

Are you enforcing piracy ?

Just try to read carrefuly before writing something wrong (especially with this kind of "harsh" tone). My english may not be very good (sorry about that, I try), but I'm pretty sure it's cristal clear that I was talking about the fucking pirates who try to make money by selling cds burnt from the simfylive mp3s. So I was NOT talking about simfylive, who are legit.

I don't condone the fact that simfylive sell the Stooges shows only as mp3s, as I will never pay for a virtual material, but I'm still glade they're doing this for the fans, and would be just pleased to give 25 euros for a cd of the show. But an official cd, not the bootleg that is sold on the ebay page linked before, and is a rip off, a dishonest sell, or anything you want to call it.

Dont think they are going to sell the 3/5/10 show, it isnt available on the site yet anyway.

Pretty sure that the Monday 3rd concert was NOT recorded by simfylive. Just the Sunday 2nd gig.
Cheers,

Yeah, 5000 euros = $6400. That ain't bad at all.

The version of Open Up And Bleed on this is excellent. Well worth buying for this alone, it's that good imho.
