Nice try ( ) Mark, but nop.
Not too many people has been involved on VU bootleging over the years. I mean the real good VU boots have been done by a few poeple (mostly fans). Anyway let´s stop guessing. takes us nowhere.

For what it's worth, a recent Beatles title ("Sessions") with some new material came out of *****, released only on vinyl -- same as this, evidently.

Sorry I really didn't mean to start a guessing game or be mysterious. I didn't ask the guy if I could spread the (very scant) info he gave me on the internet but thought it might help people stop worrying about whether the LP was for real.

Anyway I changed the number of x's to confuse you more or less. There are no countries or people with one x, I believe. I also don't think it's very important.

Well, when I started this thread I never imagined it would lead to this! FWIW I have ordered a copy (naturally!) and I do believe it will be just as advertised. It does seem a bit odd that only this guy in Dublin seems to have them but I wouldn't be surprised if many more outlets appear very quickly....
I always suspected that those small snippets of "Sister Ray" which appeared before had come from the Gymnasium tapes, so that meant that they had to be out there in somebody's hands.
(And I'll still buy any official release if/when it comes out as well!)

Indeed, if I got my hands on these recordings, I would still definately buy the official release when (if ever) it came out.

Yeah, me, too. That's what most of the record companies don't understand. We're collecting the boots because we CAN"T get them officially. If they'd put the stuff out there we'd buy it!

FREE THE GYMNASIUM TAPES!!!

FREE THE MATRIX TAPES!!!

Waiting for the LP is so hard but we all know:

First thing you learn is you always gotta wait

No news ?
I guess everybody's praying...

Since the seller said he won't be able to ship anything until tomorrow, I guess the first parcels will start dropping by wednesday-friday for the European sons.
