I've searched the dead torrents and can't see that they have been on Dime before - apologies to the moderators if that's not the case. I attach below the original comments I made at the time. Some art was created for this series after it was launched and I've added it. Captain Ransid - August 09 Original Comments This is a direct transfer from 20 year old master recording on a good old TDK AD60+90, using a Sony Recording Walkman and seperate Stereo mic. The transfer was from tape deck (Aiwa AD-F800) to Audio CD recorder, then EAC to WAV to FLAC. This was the second time that the boys had played 2 consecutive nights at the Marquee (and they sold both of these 2 out). Another incredibly hot gig!! Again the running order of the sets for each night was quite different! The set opened with a tape intro and then back to the 'traditional' opener, A+N, after IASH the previous night. We also got the 2nd outing of the Thousand Days and, the as yet unreleased, Just Changing Hands - rather than IASH the previous night. Pete confirmed that they were off up to Scotland to record a 3 track ep on which 'Hands' would be featured. The Enemy was once again put mid set with the epic Gateway being the closer. Magic Roundabout got named for the first time. IQ played a number of Marquee headlines during 1984 and included a cover as one of the encores for most of them - this night was blessed with 2 !!! The first a great version of Frankie's Relax, followed by Suffragette City on which Pete was joined on vocals by Geoff Mann, of Twelfth Night. Pete wrapped up the gig by announcing that they would be back in October for 3 nights!
