Ok, I know you guys must be sick of hearing about the confusion on Largo, but I just want it cleared up for me. 1. Is there audio from both 20th and 21th? 2. Does video exist from both dates? I'm pretty sure the entire 21th is in circulation, but what exists of video from 20th? 3. Why is Back In Black off Plug Me In labled as 20th, when Brian is wearing the striped wristband he wore on the 21th, if I remember correctly? Feel free to let me know anything else! Thank you.

Okay, first of all it's not "Largo, MD" it's "Landover, MD." The concert history and Wikipedia both list it that way (although both are technically unincorporated parts of a county). But here are the answers as I can give them: 1) Yes and no. One of the concerts exists in its entirety (most likely 12/21, it's a touch closer to Christmas and the complete concert has the goof on TNT from the Santas). 2) Video appears to exist from both dates (the complete concert most likely being 12/21, see above. The promos most likely being pulled from one or both concerts, which leads the official documentation to say 12/20-21, as the production company did not provide clear documentation as to which concert each video came from) 3) I don't feel like watching the videos (it's 6:34 AM and I have to be at work by 8 AM), but see my "footnote" on #2.

Lastspartan, as this has been brought up quite often here, there are some videos from the 12-20-81 show which Brian wears the solid color wristband, the other videos are from the 12-21-81 show where he wears the striped wristband. The promos are mostly from the 12-21-81 show, with the exception of 1 I believe from the 12-21-81 show. Travishayes pretty much confirmed everything in his post, and I think Let's Get It Up video might be from the 12-20-81, however I would have to go and look at all the videos to see which one is from what, but a majority are from the 12-21-81 show in which it was released and circulated in its entirety. Hope this clears things up ;)

Correction from my post, the promos are from the 12-21-81 show with the exception of 1 from the 12-20-81 show.

There is also footage of TNT from the same show as Let's Get It Up but without the Christmas festivities. I used to have it on VHS but I threw out all my tapes. By the way it's easier to tell the shows apart by Cliff's shirt rather than Brian's wristband. Same is true for the two nights they played in Rio.
