The entire is on the tape,and one can hear the crowd yelling hysterically for the members of the. band when they enter. the masses of the audience are audible on this tape; probably they were quite fanatical,for after “Heroes” Bowie says: “We don’t want anybody hurt,don’t push too much down there”.
After Space Oddity Bowie says in a very low voice “Thank you” ,it sounds as though he is not entirely at easy,playing in this large stadium. “It’s very big you know,this one” he says. “This is a very old song” Bowie says to the 20.000 headed crowd.

Lightweight hiss reduction using iZotope RX2 denoiser tool.
Running fast – speed correction with a factor of 96%.
Whiskery bit in Heroes at 2:11-2:13 – left alone.
Gap (legacy tape flip) between Life On Mars? and Sorrow – crowd noise only, clean join.
Gap between China Girl and Scary Monsters – crowd noise, but tonal change.
Tape flip between Scary Monsters and Rebel Rebel – seamless.
Gap (presume legacy tape flip) between Young Americans and Fame – removed, reasonably clean.
A lot of volume reprofiling on Fame onwards.
Tape flip between TVC 15 and Stay – coincides with encore break – gap and excess removed, reasonably clean.
Further encore break gap between The Jean Genie and Modern Love removed, reasonably clean.
Sector Boundary Errors fixed with TLH.
Hi John,
Thank you for the information
Greeting

This concert was definitely in the Pacific Coliseum. Both my wife and i were there, even though we didn’t meet until 19 years later! Theres no way there was 53k people there. Pacific Coliseum has max 20K seating even if people where seated behind the stage.
BC Place Stadium construction was completed in 1983, but was NOT the venue for the concert.
