The picture on my dvd was often pixelated on my computer and dvd player. That didn't bother me too much, but the editing did. Like Mark said, it was a mess. The shots of people's rears is really annoying. On 2 Out of 3, Meat told Danny to play and they put a close up of Randy. Meat told Justin to play and they put another close up of Randy. I hear Patti and Justin's voices on 2 Out of 3, but the close ups are of Ginny and Randy. Concert One didn't bother to learn the band members and their roles or the dynamics of Meat's show.

bump time....finally ordered the DVD from Amazon.ca, expecting it today! This'll be my first time watching the thing. Pretty stoked :-) Can't wait to finally have the ability to even have an opinion on it. From what I've seen, its far better than 3 Bats, not quite as good as MSO in some ways, but better in others.

:)) meat should get me to edit the next DVD

Would be a lot quicker lol

Ya, I could most certainly get the edit done in a fair three or four months.

Ah but would that give you enough time to make an easteregg with a live version of Masculine?

Only nerds and Dr Who fans will understand that lol

Ah well; 'the Angels do have the phone box' and than it cuts to Masculine!

"Don't blink, whatever you do, don't blink"

"Geronimo"

Although I feel Meat's energy is over flowing with emotion, I think that on the whole the set list was pretty weak. A little disjointed with no sole album backing it, I would prefer to hear All of Me or Live Or Die on there for a little HIAHB flavor but I think it was mostly due to the critics being too hard on that album that he decided to take apart this tour set list.

I really would have preferred the Mad Mad World Tour set list to this one.

Runnin' For The Red Light seems like a worthy show starter.

All Of Me was supposed to be in the show but Meat chickened out at the last minute. Mercury Blues was meant to be but there was a problem with the audio. Also lots of talk about Patrick was edited out.

:D Who knows? ;)



And now we have brilliant DVD :cool: (to me - on the same level as MSO).

Watched the BluRay version today.

Sound and picture quality are much much better. It sounds and it looks like it should. No pixelation or bad compression noticable and the sound is much clearer and dynamic. :cool:


... now if they only could re-edit it :twisted:

Unfortunately, after watching it alone friday night, I have to correct myself. Although there are no pixelation errors, the BluRay suffers from a large amount of noise and dust. But only from 3 camera's/angles. It's so bad that at first I thought I had a broken HDMI cable connected. But the same issues remain on my Pioneer, Phillips and Sony BluRay players.

Suprisingly the 3Bats BluRay has much better video quality than this -HD recorded and more recent- concert.

So basically, if you have the DVD and are happy with the sound of that then the BluRay has no real value. DVD video is poor but the BluRay video has issues that doesn't give you an upgrade on the DVD.

As for audio, BluRay is superior over the DVD. :cool:

many thanks :)

It put Concert One out of Business, thats how bad it was. Meat needs a better DVD to go out on

now THIS I agree with.

From what I saw everything by ConcertOne was a disaster. This is the most poorly lighted DVD from modern times I have ever seen. I can barely stand to watch it. I also still wonder how much of the actual live performance was totally live as filmed and how much was dubbed or sweetened or whatever you want to call it. At times Meat just doesn't sound quite like himself, but the darkness at least made it easy to cover any overdubs or adjustments- if any were done- from being easily seen.

I just pray that a definitive live DVD filmed to blu-ray and properly lighted is done before it is too late and that Meat feels well when it is filmed because I know he had been treated by doctors during the time frame of the GP DVD.
