Godspeed You Black Emperor - TV Appearance/Interview - Aug 10 1999 - Vega, Copenhagen, DK (complete)

Unlike the previous and disasterous upload from last night, this is actually the full transfer and is not missing anything. Sorry about that, we didn’t realise we were working on an incomplete copy and not the complete rip we made many months ago. Also this time I’ve elected not to crop out the letterbox, just to keep the TV introduction in tact and also song names are displayed within the letterbox. I’ve also kept the complete ending sequence this time as well, even though it’s just the studio version of Dead Metheny, and this is Godspeed we are talking about, so I don’t care about copyright strikes or anything like that. The previous incomplete upload of this has been unlisted, and will be deleted shortly. As always, thanks to Bruce Cawdron for providing this tape, and Joel and Tankhaus for transferring it into the digital realm. Encoding by Tankhaus and Nico L’Espérance.
