Default World's Fair - Decent Recording?

Downloaded couple of Chicago song compilations but all seem to be pretty low on the volume scale/quality – looking for a good recording of this song in particular, would be mucho mucho appreciated 

Wish Corgan would write something as good as this again sometime soon.

we could jack up the volume
but then you'd get too much audience noise as well.

no good versions of the chicago songs are circulating.
I'd love them as well.
i'd really love them.


ps. next time, hit the Music Trading forum.

That was a great show and I'd love a decent recording too.

One of the best concerts I've ever seen actually. A truly unique atmosphere that went from deafening applause to absolute silence on Billy's slightest cue.

I got to see James play with APC on the trip too which was cool. I also met Jimmy for the first time and saw Chicago. Great trip all in all.

(failed some college exams though as I flew to Chicago during them but all's well that ends well)

There is a full pro-shot video of that song with excellent audio on the RSPAA:

R S P A A : the Reborn Smashing Pumpkins Audio Archive

I have no idea how to rip the audio from that asf, though. If you can, send me a copy!

Thanks for the heads up on the ASF file - will try and rip and upload if all goes well

Martry - jealous you got to see this gig, some trip to make from Dublin, the furthest I ever went from here is over to London to catch Zwan.

I was at that Zwan show too


The performance of MSOTS at that show was phenomenal.


I've spent a good bit going around to see this guy (not 15k though lol)

Saw TFE tour in Paris (before he announced his show here) and I was at the Grand Rex show in Paris in 2007 and Pukkelpop that year too.

Agreed, that Zwan show was the best I've ever seen (Corgan-wise) next to seeing the Adore show in the Olympia in 98.

Ah, good times. Seems a million miles away now.

I missed the Olympia show in 98 but RTE broadcast it shortly afterwards and I watched it enough times that I feel I was there anyway.

I was at the Nov 6th 2000 Olympia show though. Sad night.

I can't download this right now, but isn't the audio extremely compressed? When I watched that video, it sounded like it was 32kbps or under. Otherwise it would be a good recording.

Yeah maybe...I'm not super picky. It's definitely better than the other versions out there. I'd say the sound quality is on par with that "Lost in the Woods" vid.
