Notes

This is a poorly shot recording but one of the only sources from the 1995 Australian Tour. This DVD is merged together with the Big Day Out 2000 footage, as well as Reading Festival 2007. This whole DVD is just over 2 hours. But the actual performance from Melbourne is over an hour. I would like to see a separate video of the Melbourne video that I could possibly transfer. It's recorded from the (very distant) left rear of the park. At the end of the tape, it reads "an NCL Production" with some other things they have shot in Australia. So more than likely it was shot by them. Would love to find the master tape or a low gen of it, if possible.

Notes

One of the last recordings I found because of the ninlive instagram account, they reached out to me because someone linked them to the page. I wasn't sure if I would be able to get a copy, but I was very surprised to have WAV files hit the inbox! These have been uncirculated for years. Finally unearthed in 2025, very cool. I'd be interested to hear how they transferred these. I feel like we could make them a bit better with azimuth adjustment and maybe adjusting the levels on the transfer. This is a complete tape and obviously these Australia shows are not documented well. I'd love to hear back from Platterpus, if they have time. I obviously lost all of my messages with the disabling of the ninlive instagram account.
