Two from the Vault

I can't believe I'm just now discovering this. Wolfgang's Vault is a web site that sells posters, programs, t-shirts, backstage passes, art and photography from concerts promoted by legendary promoter Bill Graham during his nearly 30 year career. Also available are dozens of live concert recording, some available for free in streaming audio and some available for sale as 256k mp3 for $9.98. The shows I'm most interested in, as you can guess, are U2 concerts from Boston's Orpheum Theatre. The first is from 11/14/1981 and the October tour. The second is 05/06/1983 on the War tour. The recording of "11 O'Clock Tick Tock" from 1983 the concert is featured on their Live EP "Under a Blood Red Sky." Unfortunately, these aren't available for purchase. Click here for the direct link to the shows. Enjoy!
