Is there a way to download only a couple of the songs instead of the whole concert?

No there isnt. Basically when you download a torrent, the file as a whole is seen as a single file, downloaded in pieces. So there isnt anyway to get a certain part of it without the others to make it complete.

I do wish there was a way to get only like a 30 second sample of something so you could see if the source you may have already is as good, better or worse than what your gettin. Nothing like downloading a file for a day to find you have it already, or your copy of it is better.

Actually you can using the Azureus client. You can pick and choose which files you want by going to the torrent details, going to the files, and right-clicking on them.
