What is special about these concerts?

What does Media NM- / Box VG mean?
For the records, NM- (Near Mint minus) means: almost as new, with at most minimal signs of wear. For the box, VG (Very Good) means: clear signs of wear, here a small damage to one corner. We explain all grades on our Vinyl Grading page.
