I was planning on ripping it the day i got it. I don't have a phone stage at the moment so will either borrow one or go to a friends and use his Linn/Naim system to burn direct onto a CD recorder. I hope this will be within a day of getting it but it depends on the day it arrives. I can do it unless someone else can do it sooner.

But I also only believe it when they're out.

And btw, in 'All Yesterdays' Parties: The Velvet underground In Print 1966-1971' By Clinton Heylin,
he writes about a song named 'I'm Not a Young Man Anymoore' wich he also describes and claims they are included in the Gymnasium Tapes.
Do you really thinks this is true?

I'm Not A Young Man Anymore
John Davies Cale, Sterling Morrison, Lou Reed, Maureen Ann Tucker
John Cale Music Inc, Oakfield Avenue Music Ltd

"Hey, I'm not a young man anymore
Hey, I'm not a young man anymore
I got five nickles in my pocket
You know that I can get me some more"
Moe says: "I think we played it live - not completely sure. I wouldn't swear that we didn't record it, but I don't think so".

the setlist is unknown? very mysterious and cool. yes, if this leaked from the next bootleg series release, hopefully the company will take notice and get out the matrix tapes bootleg series release out sooner than the bootleggers can get it!

and, who knows. if this can get gotten....who says the matrix tapes aren't going to show up on purple vinyl next month...
