I really got my hopes up years back when Spin did a cover and spread on outdoor festivals. As an attendee, I was contacted for quotes by the writer who got my info off an obscure website posting. He seemed positive more performance material would be coming out as interest had been building. So far all I've ever found was the compilation DVD from '83 and a few full performance CDs, which The English Beat one is quite good! Money talks, as they say... and it's clearly the issue on this one.

When asked about the 1983 edition they said:

The US Festivals one never knows what the future brings, of course - but for now, one thing at a time. this is something we wanted to do for a while, not an easy thing to set up, but we are now past the hard part. the significance of 1982 was that it truly took a vision and made it into a reality, created an awesome venue from near nothingness, and pioneered so many things as it went. more on this soon.
