Yes I said Capital Centre,
On my version, Dave keeps telling the Largo fans, it's great to be in Baltimore Washington, good drugs
The Largo show is a 2 dvd set and most people only have 1 dvd of that show because somebody cut corners and only wanted to copy to one disc and obviously the quality of the show was downscaled to save space
I've talked to people who are missing the last songs of You Really Got Me and Happy Trails from that show
Mine is also 1 disc but a friend in Brazil has the 2 disc version. I think whoever made the disks cut corners and lost some of the video quality.
I checked with BTB Productions and they claim Largo is 2 disk set. Alot of fans out there are missing the last 2 tracks on their dvd,You Really Got Me and Happy Trails are missing, mine personally is missing the second half of You Really Got Me after they do Happy Trails
I am looking for the 2 disk version myself
There is a guy from England selling a 2 disk Largo version but I think it is a copy, he has no artwork for it so that is why I think that
