NO, actually I don't want the Setlist included in any way...

My plan is buying the Bucarest USB and remain offline until I receive it, play it without being spoiled in any way.

If they dispatch the day after the concert it should arrive three days later 

That's why I want to know that, to be sure that I can remain unspoiled

I like that plan Jbaent..I was planing to pick up the first show myself so I think I'm going to follow suit and stay offline...no setlist exposure..until I listen to it for the first time.

I emailed the www.markknopfler-live.com about downloadable concerts and the exact content.
This was their reply:

Hello Klaas,
 
thank you for your message.
 
There will be no mp3 downloads of the MK recordings because of licence reasons. The recordings are sold exclusively as a collectors item on a 4 GB usb stick in the shape of the red Fender. There will be a collectors box for the Fender with a label of the concert date and venue.
 
The MK concert sticks can be purchased as pre-order or after the concert date on our webpage. There will be no pick up at the venue or sale of the sticks at the venue.
 
The sticks contains the audio recording of the full Mark Knopfler concert (incl. all intermediate speech of MK) in mp3 format (320 KBit/s quality).
 
If you need further assistance, just let us know.
 
Best Regards,
 
Carsten Brauer

"For licence reasons"      That doesn't really answer the question.   I wonder who is responsible for making the licence.   That wasn't an issue with the Simfy recordings.   

Thank you anyway Klaas.

Really don't get the licence thing at all. I mean apart from being able to count the items sold, easier, being physical and all, they could have obtained a licence for downloads as well.   Or have they found a way to lock the MP3s in the  USB?
Can't wait to see the case/box of the USB. It is said to be a collectors item but what does that means? One specially made for each concert, or just the label will be different? No photos of any of them at the site.

And of course there will be no recordings of the support groups and Ruth Moody's CD sounds very  good!

With todays cut-backs, the collectors box will be brown cardboard with protective polystyrene pieces!

You mean Scotch tape, eh?

MP3 protecting is not impossible technically, but I don
