These are the original notes that came with the download, all I've done is parcel it up again courtesy of Trader's Little Helper and add a checksum. Saw a request for it and, at the risk of enduring a bum-numbingly slow upload rate, here it is. Thanks and all credit of course to the original taper, seeder and the estimable thir13en. Or were they one and the same? Oh I dunno, it's late. Anyway, it's a brilliant gig and it sounds astonishingly good.

This was a cool show from the Second Coming. And as the Threepeat seems to be doomed more and more, it might be the last of the decent live shows from them. 

Covering the 95 songs as well as the 90-91 era, a real nice mix that needed some work. It was thin, and the mid-range dominated causing a heavy guitar experience, which has been evened out in the remaster.

Tape story:
The venue is at the main Milan horse track (thoroughbred horse racing) near San Siro stadium.
I have located myself in front of the right stack, about 20 m from the stage.
Many people were around me and, unfortunately, some of them used Stone Roses' Reunion Tour music as a background for their conversation.
Anyway the sound is good-to-very good, with only occasional screaming and clapping always in time with music.

What about the show?
It was my first The Stone Roses concert and I enjoyed a lot, but I was disappointed with its short duration.
"Something's Burning", for example, even if still listed in available setlist was definitely not played.
The gig was part of the first edition of a new Milan summer festival (City Sound) held at the Ippodromo del Galoppo.
The setlist is mainly based on the first album and related stuff. Only 2 songs from Second Coming.
"Fools Gold" itself is worth the ticket price.

Technical notes:
- The total running time of the recording was 1:28:10; I have cut the first 2:40 mins (The Supremes' Stoned Love used as intro music) and the last useless 40 secs reducing the master to 1:24:49
- I have amplified the whole recording (+7.0 dB on the left channel, +11.0 dB on the right channel), faded-in and faded-out the first and last 10 secs
- If you burn to audio CD, you will need 2 CDs (CD1: 01-08; CD2: 09-15)

Songs marked IEM/AUD may be patched with AUD in short periods.

The IEM sounded fantastic, almost a straight soundboard. Unfortunately the wide use of mobile / cell phones and the fact I could not get close to the stage meant that the signal was awful. I used the IEM where I could but I estimate only about 30% of the IEM was good enough. AUD source recorded directly in front of one of the repeater towers and sounds as best as the environment would allow with chatter inbetween songs and during the quieter songs.
