Hi all, I’m new to this forum, but have loved Roxette since abut ’94.

I’m wondering if there are any bootlegs available for download/trade of the Room Service Tour.

I’m into Tori Amos a lot and we trade concerts all the time.

Possibly controversial because I don’t know how this community is about bootlets?

we’re fine with them I think. Personally I love them.

http://roxbytes.com has a lot of uploaded concerts. You may wish to check this out. I am sure the major traders on this forum will reply soon enough. Best of Luck.

We aren’t against bootlegs, but we prefer if the direct links aren’t present here. At least not to downloads.

tev speak for yourself I for one endorse tour bootlegs as long as peple do not SELL them, especially seeing as EMI supposedly signed a deal with Clear Channel USA to ban a new idea that alot of other lables came out with to sell concert cd’s recirded and sold at venues the same night,

I’m not sure if they are still available but if they are not I have Live in Oberhausen and Barcelona [Full Concert not the webcast one] let me know if you need them.

Bootlegs = mostly bad quality and too expensive.
But if there weren’t bootlegs I couldn’t listen today to the Unplugged show from 1993. BTW isn’t it time to do another Unplugged show (this time without MTV) ???

I’m very dissapointed they didn’t release this show on CD. But I’m even more dissapointed that they still haven’t got any LIVE CD??? Especially the RS Tour was very good. I saw them on several tours and they are LIVE at it’s best. If you tell someone that Roxette exist since 1986 and they didn’t release any LIVE CD, someone could think that they are not a LIVE ACT.

No official Look Sharp Live CD, no official Join the Joyride Live CD, no official Crash!Boom!Bang! Live CD, no official Room Service Live CD....???
Sad but true.

P.S. Don’t flame me for posting a link, since EMI have never ever released any official recordings and no one here wants to sell them whats the harm.

“We” in this context is TDR.

Some bootlegs are not bad quality, others are pure crap... my all time fave was Don’t Ignore Us... it cost me a small fortune when I bought it but it was and still in one of my most played CD’s!
