P.S. The full 9/26/12 United Center show has been posted as a 2 DVD set here.
UPDATE: A new audio source has surfaced, which, in my opinion, has slightly better quality. Audio taper travelinbeat posted his recording of this superjam in February of 2013 as 24 bit flac files (which are no longer available). I have converted to 16 bit flac and you can download travelinbeat’s new source right here:
MP3 (travelinbeat source): NO LONGER AVAILABLE
16BIT FLAC (travelinbeat source): NO LONGER AVAILABLE
24BIT FLAC (travelinbeat source): NO LONGER AVAILABLE
Also, Bonnaroo365 has posted 4 youtube episodes about this superjam, a total of 39 minutes of interviews, behind the scenes, and live footage. The videos have been embedded at the bottom of this post.
