>There sure is. And a great one it is!!! (QR-23/24) Almost complete,
>pristine soundboard of the 14 Feb afternoon show. It is missing "Most
>Likely..." and "The Shape I'm In" (NOTE: The performance of "The Shape
>I'm In" from this show is include on "Before The Flood"). It gives us our
>first 74 soundboard recordings of "She Belongs To Me" and "It's All Over
>Now, Baby Blue" !! It also includes five songs (Soundboard) from the
>evening performance (Endless Highway, The Shape I'm In, H61R , LARS,
