So I don't know where is this post is supposed to go. But I put it here. Hope you all don't mind.
After I finished uploading my Merriweather full show raw videos to mega.nz, my QAL journey is officially over. All audio recordings, occasionally video recordings and of course streaming are now in the past. I am a bit sad that I am not able to serve you any for quite a long time. But I will be back when A3 happens. I am sure.
I put all my recordings together so it might be easier for you to look for, in case you are interested.
I attended seven shows: SAP center, the Forum, the Joint X2, Wells Fargo center, MSG and Merriweather. So I have audio recordings for five shows (SAP center, the Joint X2, Wells Fargo center, and MSG) and full show video recordings for LV2 and Merriweather. I also had the honor and pleasure to be able to stream 4 shows: SAP, the Forum, Wells Fargo center, & MSG, three shows streaming videos were successfully saved except the one for the Forum.
I am now giving the full list of my recordings in all formats. You will have audio recordings both individual songs and uncut in MP3 and FLAC format (CD quality). You will also have video recordings in the original size for best quality.

* How to play the uncut audio with cue file: (by mmyy9)
1. Download the FLAC/MP3 file and corresponding .cue file to the same folder
2. Open the cue file (not the FLAC/MP3 file) from a media player (I use foobar2000)
4. Tracks will be shown as a playlist (if not, double-click the cue file)
5. Click the track to play

If I would rank the seven concert, it looks like this:
1. the Forum, LA
2. the Joint, LV2 (the second night)
3. Merriweather, DC
4. MSG, New York
5. the Joint, LV1 (the first night)
6. Wells Fargo Center, Philly
7. SAP center, San Jose
**
The ranking is based on live sound quality (20%), live vocals (25%), live instruments (20%) energies from the band and Adam (15%), the audience's reactions to the show and the communication between the whole band and the audience (20%).
---
- My personal favorite live renditions are:
1. Crazy Little Thing Called Love (all concerts)
2. Tie Your Mother Down (all concerts)
- Most impressive live performances:
Somebody to Love (the Forum)
Killer Queen (the Forum)
Love Kills (MSG & Merriweather)
Who Wants to Live Forever (MSG & Merriweather)
The Show Must Go On (LV1 & MSG)
- Most surprised vocals:
Radio GaGa (sweet, sweet, sweet oh SO sweet)
Oh, also loved Brian's guitar solo (all concerts) & the drum duel (MSG & Merriweather)
