I also couldn't get it from itunes or amazon either, but have just managed to get it from hmv here:-

They take paypal also which for me made it quick & easy.

On Oldfiled's Crises album, "Ant" is credited on guitar, for Moonlight shadow, and maybe Crises (not sure)

is it a common nickname ?

Short for Anthony.  Dec is short for Declan.

Ah ok I thought the short for Anthony was "Tony"

Tony is the most common one, yes.

Wouldn't it have been great if the live performance on the day itself was the release.  Didn't want to risk it though because he's not played live for a wee while!

Sounds very much like it with Nigel on sax. How many shows did Nigel play?
From Glasgow till last RAH + the US shows? Did he also play Germany?

Of the mp3's that I have my most likely match is  2013-10-27, Oakland\#69

Yeah, Nigel did also the July part in Germany, Cologne, Halle etc.

It is somehow typically unprofessional not to verify the source of the recording, isn't it? I bet Guy has already a lot of questions about that for his next
forum update..

Yes, it's tonight at 8.30pm.  I'm disappointed, because I had read that it was going to be broadcast on BBC2 live, but according to the schedules, that's not so.   I think the concert maybe included in the actual race on Sunday morning, but how and when I don't know!   :think

And you can watch Ant on the live DVD that comes with the Crises box set, it's NOT Ant from Ant & Dec :lol
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

Its on BBC2 sunday schedule, I programmed it with Filmon and I will upload the recording to youtube. The programme its called "Athletics" and will show highlights of the show from today.

The things is if maybe today any news report will show something of it...
