The original source for this boot is most likely an IEM from Danny's earpiece, rather than an ALD. The quality of the original source was pretty good apart from regular drops in bass, and the sterility that tends to go along with ALD/IEM tapes. PS has mixed it with the circulating audience tape and sprinkled it with a little fairy dust to produce what is most likely the best boot we have from this tour so far. The fact that it was an excellent show with a superb setlist helps a little too. One thing to note - it isn't an IEM/AUD mix in the truest sense - only the parts of the show that have/need audience participation have been mixed with the audience tape, primarily due to the fact that the audience tape is not of the best quality. The result is seamless to my ears, and the usual sterility it nowhere to be heard. Instrument separation is superb - I can hear all instruments clearly with guitars up front.

One thing to note - the drops in the bass channel can still be heard. Unfortunately not much could be done about them. However, the drops are nowhere near as obvious as they were in the original source.
