My DVD is Region 1 (as I couldn't wait until it was released here!) and it's fine. I don't think I even got the full depth of it until I listened to the CD - I'm full of admiration for Mark Alexander in particular who has to lead in for a lot of the songs - a tough job when Meat was at his improv. best!
As for the orchestra, wow - I've never heard such great production with a rock band - usually it takes weeks or months in the studio - how did they do it with the limited time they had to rehearse? Hats off! The MSO so wonderfully complements the music and MEANING in all of these songs we love...every time I listen to the CD I hear something else I didn't spot in the meantime.
It's great news how well the CD and DVD are doing in the charts - maybe if they get right to the top Meat will be flown over to take credit in person..?
