datfly2003: I have the great pleasure of being the one to record this show ! I wish I did not trade it to a certain person pack in 94 along with a few other shows that were widely bootlegged ! My STP, Nirvana & A few others made it out on Bootlegs. Now for a CORRECTION....it was Bayfront Arena. It is a small indoor arena NOT an Amphitheater. This show was taped on a whim. I saw PJ the night before in Miami (Great DAT Too !) and was so blown away I jumped in the car the next day & drove 4 hours to St.Pete. The place was SOLD OUT !! But as luck would have it while I was haggling with a scalper for a back of the arena ticket for 100.00 some guy told me the ticket window opened & they released some seats ! I rushed to the window & bought my ticket at PJ price !!. It was 5th row side stage (Stones) & in front of a sweet stack of PA's ! But it almost did not happen ! It was my first show with metal detector wands & I was scared shitless. Security was WAY high as the night before in Miami a riot ensued when 20,000 people showed up for a 10,000 seat AMPHITHEATER.! Well, I was about to put the rig in the car & enjoy the show when I thoght of a "scam" if you will. I saw some pay phones near the entrance and I walked to the front of the line of hundreds of people & asked the guy if I could make a call that it was an emergency, I showed him my ticket & told him I was not trying to sneak in, so he waved me by & to the phone and in I went. So on a whim & by luck I got the show ! I of course found out later my DAT deck would not set off the wands but I did not know that THEN ! After the show I had to drive straight home as Pink Floyd were kicking off their last ever world tour in Miami !! It was a GREAT WEEK ! I may grab this myself as it has been DEQ 'ed ! The bootleg was EQ'ed as well but I did not like their version. Cheers, Datfly |
