This list is by no means complete and is purely as clear and helpful as we can present it. We've included a brief quality rating guide but everyone has their idea on what they find acceptable. The listings contain all bootlegs we know of although some are duplicated because date errors. In these instances please refer to the notes for more information. Any additions or corrections are more than welcome!
