what were other bands policies? Springsteen? The Dead?
The technical discussions in the Vault newsletter address the difficulties in recording multitrack on the road until the availability of DAT recorders in the early 90s; you needed a mobile recording truck, essentially a recording studio on wheels, which was prohibitively expensive to take out on the road for any band except for maybe one or two shows. It's a really great little article and also finally explains (more or less) why Brett didn't mix the 2008 bootlegs too, an enduring mystery.

Im about half way through the tech/crew talk stuff which i have found quite enjoyable.
There seems to be every grateful dead show available in good quality though?

I don't know much about the Dead, I admit.
I guess they're either straight soundboard recordings or they had their own dedicated recording truck set-up early on, which wasn't something Pearl Jam could afford in the early days?

what are you guys talking about? was this in an email i deleted without reading?
It's in the newsletter, a detailed history of how they've recorded their shows (probably getting sick of dorks complaining of missing songs on Vault releases).
