Labelled as sbd but possibly TV broacast or FM transmission.
Show listed on The Official Mike Oldfield Information Service and Tubular.net websites.

Stereo recording: sbd? tv? fm?

"A great performance, sound is a solid B+ and sounds like it is from a television broacast or possibly an FM transmission. It came to me labelled as a soundboard, but sounds a bit compressed as a broacast would be......still a great download....enjoy!!!
The original trade CD came to me with a date of 12/18/80 on it, but I can only find one show in Dortmund for that tour and it was 12/20/80. The information below is taken from Mike's Official website: On 31 October QE2 was issued.
The primary consequence for Mike of the second tour was pecuniary. Post QE2, he said, "I'm not into losing money any more. You know, in that first tour I really wanted to take the whole thing on - now I'd have somebody to look after the orchestra. They're nearly all MU members and they nearly went on strike on us about eight times. As soon as they see a TV camera they start demanding money. I've even thought about doing gigs completely by myself."
