Welcome - About Live and Loud!

Live and Loud! began as a fortnightly internet radio show in 2012 taking old unreleased live concert recordings I could find and working to repair and improve them - fixing tape hiss, noise, tape drop out, clicks, speed variations, defects - before improving the sound quality by EQing the sound to bring out the instruments as clearly as possible. These are now made directly available to download for free to reach as many fans of the music as possible.

Depending on the quality of the original recording, these can often be made to sound almost like commercial recordings - but of course I can't guarantee that for every show. What I can guarantee is it will sound far better than the original files available which have been floating around the internet and on bootleg recordings for many years.

Almost all are either "soundboard" recordings (taken directly from the mixing desk used at the gig on the night) or old FM radio recordings. A few gigs, if they are of special historical importance, make an appearance even if they were recorded from the audience - these can also be made to sound better than ever.

Do your ears a favour and listen on headphones or good speakers to get most benefit - laptop speakers will always sound pretty poor by comparison.

All shows still available are listed, including a link to download the remastered show for free. If you want to support the site with a small donation, you can receive the shows as either separate MP3s or FLACs (your choice) - head over to the Rewards for Donations page and see how you can get a lot for very little!

If you want to email me, an email link is in my profile in a link in the side panel.

And finally... These are great fun to listen to but DO NOT replace original releases - support these artists and buy their music. There is nothing you can go and buy in a regular record store here. If a gig is made available as a regular release, then it will be removed (as a couple have been already).

Show 50: Marilyn Manson - Docklands Arena, London - 24 January 2001


Marilyn Manson, from the 11 month long Guns, God and Government world tour, captured at the Docklands Arena in London on the first UK leg of the tour.

It's an FM radio broadcast originally so sadly isn't the full set - but what's here is pretty damn good! It responded well to some remastering; I hope you enjoy it!

***2026 UPDATE***

Someone recently donated to the site and asked for this as separated files. Given it is over 12 years since the show was first worked on by me, I decided to go back and do it again, from the original source files I had. The result is much improved I think - more rounded bass, a fuller sound and less harsh top end.

So as of 2026, you now have a new and improved version! And also the choice to not only download this newly restored and remastered show as one 320kbps MP3 file but also to stream it - exclusively for FREE by clicking below.

Supporting The Site

If you want to support the work I do on these recordings, and (if you wish to) obtain separate, fully tagged 320kbps MP3s of this restoration for less than the price of a coffee in return, or lossless FLACs - or even a lossless copy on CDR - head on over to the Rewards For Donations tab to see how you can obtain these for a very small donation towards the site. There is NO OBLIGATION to do so of course - you can take the file on this page absolutely for free - but every single donation is appreciated and helps me do more shows and update some of the software I use as time goes by. Either way, enjoy the show.
