This edited setlist was broadcast by Triple J FM on May 25, 2007, after I
began a small campaign via stewartcopeland.net to get Triple J to rebroadcast
this recording.  Thanks to votes / emails to the program manager by readers of
stewartcopleand.net, the show was scheduled as part of Triple J's "Impossible
Music Festival".  Just goes to show - you CAN get your local radio station to
rebroadcast recordings if you get enough fans to ring / email in!  Let's get
more of these campaigns happening!

Thanks to Mike G for starting the ball rolling by trying this first with the
Madame Wu's show - sadly the radio station he targeted lost their tapes. It
was a good idea, though, and all fans should be checking lists to see if there
is a radio station in their state which could be encouraged to rebroadcast a
set.  It CAN happen - as this recording demonstrates!

When the DJ is talking you can hear some FM noise, but it's very minimal.
High frequencies are a little 'hissy' but overall this is a fine recording and
a huge improvement over the circulating copies.

If you have a better / more complete version, please be in touch!
