Notes:
This was an absolute pain in the ass to split into tracks for a number of reasons.
1. I don't know their songs too well.
2. They jam a lot so I wasn't sure which bits were part of a song.
3. It's hard to understand what Cedric's singing, making it hard to google lyrics for song titles.
4. I read somewhere that they don't change their setlist throughout a tour. I used the Sydney setlist as a staring point and they did play a few different songs.

I hope I got the splits and track names right. Please let me know if anything's wrong as I am a bit of a perfectionist.

The overall volume was increased by 6db. No other changes were made.

Do not sell this recording. Do not convert to MP3 or other lossy formats unless it's for personal use.
