This bootleg set comes inside a box shaped as a grave. It also includes a "Cure" tote bag, a button, a "Cure" pack of post-it notes, a lighter and, finally, a card saying "The Cure [then, underneath] The Funeral Party Now Began - card no 222 Exp. Date 05.99" Between the top division (with "The Cure" writ) and the bottom with the rest of it, it has the number 3004 writ on the right hand side. I think the font used
in writing "The Cure" on all this silly unofficial merchandise is simply made-up by the bootleg company but I've probably missed a couple of fonts the real Cure have used so I may be wrong.
The two discs included are in the same form on other bootlegs - the 1980 Sydney show is also on Gravedigger and Sydney, 1980 or some such title. The sound quality on this disc isn't great but I think it's at least liveable. There's very little static, but the sound is slightly tinny and a little muddled. Put it together and you wish there's was a better midrange present.
The second disc in this set is the same show as The Perfect Kiss. The sound quality is completely indistinguishable between the second disc of this set and The Perfect Kiss. (which I also now redundantly own.) In other words, it sounds great. Basically the decision in getting this is whether you want both shows and silly
merchandise or just one of the shows and no merchandise. Despite my original belief that this would be two 1980 Australian shows (which would be much more interesting) I still think this set is worth the cost. Limited to 300 copies, supposedly.
