Plain and simple, I synchronized the 3-song soundboard recording shared some years ago, to the corresponding video :)
HOWEVER: During the entire middle section of Liar, the video footage does not fit AT ALL. I have no idea why this is, possibly because the footage from this section is actually from the 2nd night? Anyway; I've cut that out, and filled the gaps in the video with photos from this show/tour (thought that was more interesting than just a black screen).

I did try to upload this to YouTube, but it got blocked worldwide.... So there's no preview.
Since the "original" video is 1440x1080, I decided to render a version in that resolution, but also create a version at half the size (720x540, with lower bitrate as well).

Both are 60fps, packed in an MKV with PCM audio, and chapters for each song.

Enjoy!

1440x1080p60 25Mbit:https://mega.nz/#!ZVlykRCY!le1Ii1DJRwbmv2x7K2kTqUZABpJRJyJZl6YpAfbqvLs
720x540p60 9.8Mbit:https://mega.nz/#!lQch3IaR!-5VYWkfvOBFDl9DNRamZliZi9MLjh4KB5pzJBt4p7F4

EDIT: So I disabled pitch shifting, so the pitch shouldn't change around the cuts and stretches. 
Hopefully this sounds good :)

Yeah, a lot of the audio from this source is different from the released version. Not only in the middle section, but stuff in the earlier parts, as well as the ending are definitely different as well. This version is 10 times hotter than the one they released!

Also, ironically the sound mix is a lot better here IMO. The lower end isn't a bassy mush, but nice and crisp so that you can actually tell the bass drum from the bass.

This was a great listen, thanks!

Those different parts are overdubs. What I'm talking about is a completely different performance altogether!

This sounds interesting. I'll have a look on it as soon as my connection finishes downloading the video (I hope quite soon).

Thank you Nitroboy, for the glorious 22 minutes i just spent watching this great clip. It sounds great to me!
You did a great job with the pictures. I personally prefer it this way, instead of inserting video from other performances that don´t correspond to the audio.

So do I. Especially considering there's not really any other footage to choose from :P

Why is the pitch constantly changing in Liar and what's that horrible noise in the high frequencies?

The pitch may be due to me having to stretch the audio to fit the video. However those stretches were 5/6 cents at most, and I made those changes where they shouldn't be noticeable.

Well they are very noticeable. At least to me. I am very sensitive to things like wrong pitch or wrong colours. It's my curse :-) But otherwise than that nice work

Yeah, the pitch changes are very noticeable indeed, I'd say they are significantly more than a few cents. I thought it was because of the tape being transferred badly.

Can you post time-stamps?
I'd say it's due to a bad transfer? I mean, it's running at the same speed as the video after all?
Although it could be something like Tokyo 85, where the impromptu would run at the same speed, but at some points the pitch was 2-3 semitones too high.
