I spotted this blog recently and it's a bit of a find if you haven't heard these gigs (bar Irvine CA I hadn't). The '82 Blackpool one is excellent quality so that's recommended. Obviously the more veteran seeders will already have these but it's good for newbies.
There is a wide selection of other bands on there if you click on "Show all posts". I've already attacked the Mozzer, Neil Finn and Postal Service sections. Even paid the 4 Euros to Rapidshare to bypass the free download limit.
Enjoy.
Thanks - got the Berlin show which is a beatiful gig - I also got another USA-89 gig which a friend of mine did "remaster" so it sounds great - but only on a cd.
Great find and some great gigs on there wich i didn't have or heard yet
btw: is that Ian Curtis sittin next to hooky and barney on that pic in Berlin, looks really JD that pic (besides hooky on his mobilephone)
Without downloading or listening to it, I'm assuming the Big Day Out gig is from the Gold Coast, Queensland rather than Sydney. That's the show that JJJ broadcast at the time, the tracklisting is the same, it's been widely bootlegged on eBay too.
Can anyone confirm?

Yeah, the Crystal is identical to the one on Retro CD4 so it's definitely Gold Coast.
The German gig is really good actually both in terms of performance and crowd banter... haven't had it off my iPod for the past day 
Sounds far superior to Finsbury mess.
Thanks also, Ally. This is a really great find. love the Irvine Meadows gig from 1989. I was there for that one, and it brings back memories.
The 1982 Blackpool gig is fantastic also. It's great to have bookend playings of "Age of Consent". Fascinating stuff.

This is stuff I put up years ago on STG and EZT/DIME...I'm the 'lammah' in question...wish they would have honored the request in the description files (probably edited out!) and not transcoded to MP3, assuming the RAR files contain MP3s and aren't just the unadulterated flacsets.
Ally you absolute fooking gent! Currently downloading a shitload of New order,U2,Smiths,Pulp,Postal Service,Editors.... Can't wait.

It's Steve and it's Manchester not Berlin. St Peter's Square opposite the Midland Hotel!
Can't get any of them to play. RAR Extension not found.Tried playing them on I-TUNES player,WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER..

loving the embryonic version of age of consent on the blackpool gig- according to this site's song browser, it's the first airing of the song in a live setting? nice. thanks for all the links!
edit: nice catch by eric wang, re: bookend playings of aoc
