Is there anyone who can do a PAL to NTSC conversion of this DVD?  I'd love to have a NTSC copy, and have an extensive list of Oils bootlegs to pick from if someone wants to trade...

G'morning,Many thanks to Jill for sending me this disc and to Chris Rea for the original seed, I can now offer the Oils/Warumpi DVD of the RMIT show. I have five copies and the first five USA folks that will reweed to 5 others of your choice will get in. You must be able to reweed this disc to get in!! I will email the winners personally and post to the list once the spots are gone.Good luck!David in MinnesotaDisc details:Midnight Oil / Warumpi BandRMIT 100th Anniversary ConcertStorey Hall, RMIT, Melbourne, Australia7th March 1987Sourced from recent re-broadcast of the concert on ABC TV AustraliaAnalogue broadcast -> PC -> Pinnacle Studio 8 -> DVDPAL, 4:3, 5089kbps, LPCM AudioThis is a nugget of pure gold that has suddenly surfaced without warning. You may haveseen some of it before, but according to the broadcaster this is the first time the entireshow has been aired.The show fits into the space between the 1986 Blackfella/Whitefella tour ofthe Australian outback, and the recording of the album it inspired, Diesel and Dust.This is one of the last shows played with Peter Gifford in the band - herecorded the Diesel and Dust album, but retired before the tour which followed.We get three songs from the Warumpi Band set, two of which are from theirsecond album Go Bush! which was released soon after this show.In the Oils set we get some real gems, including Blossom And Blood fromSpecies Deceases, and a very rare performance of Who Can Stand In The Way from Red Sails InThe Sunset. There are also a couple of songs that would be part of Diesel And Dust -Bullroarer and Dreamworld. Dreamworld in particular is a real gem, with completelydifferent verse lyrics to the final version. Elvis Costello's What's So Funny About Peace,Love And Understanding? also gets a run. This was played quite regularly over thenext few years, but this is quite possibly the very first time the Oils played it live.Setlist:Warumpi Band:From The BushNo FearBlackfella/WhitefellaMidnight Oil:Blossom And BloodBullroarerWho Can Stand In The WayDreamworldBest Of Both WorldsThe Dead HeartShort MemoryKosciuskoHerculesPicturesRead About ItWhat's So Funny About Peace, Love And Understanding?Power And The PassionOnly The StrongArtwork available here:http://au.groups.yahoo.com/group/powderworks/files/Artwork/RMIT%20Artwork.zip<http://au.groups.yahoo.com/group/powderworks/files/Artwork/RMIT%20Artwork.zip>
