According to Meats 'Official' website the DVD went on sale Sept 14th. I knew that website was good for something

If the DVD is out now in the US has anyone actually got it? If so spill the beans! Whats the audio commentary like & is the concert in 5.1 and DTS? If it did come out on the 14th How come amazon & DVDSoon still havent got it in stock?

Never mind, only a few more days til the CD is released (in america at least). and Amazon reckon I should get it in time for my birthday on the 2nd too (though I wil of course be buying the two disc UK release too!)

The DVD still isn't out yet .... according to Amazon.com, it's still supposed to be shipped on October 5th. And for some reason Barnes & Noble. com cancelled my pre-order. I sent them a message asking what the problem is, but I still haven't gotten a response

And the CD is still supposed to be out on September 28th !! Hopefully you'll get it in time for your birthday :)

It was certainly available in Vegas the assistan I spoke to remembered selling one of the copies just before we got to the store, although with the cinema showings of the show next week I'm guessing it's a possibly a limited issue that's been distributed initially.

I was there and saw the associate inform us the DVD was on the shelf just hours before we were there. It has been selling and selling well in America.

Hi friends and neighbours,

I'm back after a long sojourn.

A question more aimed at my fellow Aussies.

Has anyone seen any details of the release date of the live CD and/or DVD.

I haven't been able to find anything.

I was in the second row in melbourne and am hoping that my wife's beauty will take precidence over my ugly mug and we score a 'supporting role' in the show.

I am also dying to re-live the show.

Can anyone help??

Thanks

Stuart

Just out of curiousity ... selling well where in America ? If it's true, I'm certainly glad to hear that :) But I haven't seen it in any stores around here, and every where I look on-line it says that it's not supposed to be released until October 5th.

The latest Classic Rock magazine has a full page colour advertisement for the CD and DVD confirming the UK release date as 18 October.

Did you not read the full posting that you quoted a portion of? Andyk mentioned the city was Vegas and the specific store was the Virgin Megastore at the Forum Shops at Cesars. This is a casino and hotel on "The Strip" in what is commonly called Vegas, but the strip is not actualyl in the city limits of Las Vegas. I hope that will fully explain the situation to you.

So that we do not confuse anyone...what city and country were you in when you were at this store? I want to make sure this is all crystal clear to everyone reading this tread, as some people are already confused.

Fine. I just got the impression from your post that it was available elsewhere in the United States ..... as I said before, I'm truly glad to hear that it has been selling so well.

I have a mate in the US who is an editor for a music magazine over there.

He posted the following message to a group I am on:

"Well. I got the new MEAT LOAF live with the Melbourne Symphony and it is
just plain AWESOME.... The most recent Meat band kicks ass, and he did "For
Crying Out Loud" live for the first time since the 70s! It was great.... And
the hot chick dancers was a nice addition... Hey Stu were you at that show?
The bonus disc is a little lame and goofy, but the concert ruled! "

Audio samples can be downloaded from www.bn.com

He sounds pretty good, especially in 2 out of 3 and FCOL!

I bought a copy yesterday afternoon. Even though I already had the CD coming from Amazon, I just had to have it RIGHT AWAY.

Maybe it was because of what happened at our flag store Tuesday night (we were flooded again) or maybe it's just because I'm impatient .. who knows ... but I couldn't wait any longer and drove over to the local Best Buy. They only had 3 copies on the shelf with the other Meat CD's, and I grabbed one right away. I couldn't wait until I got home, so I popped it in my CD player in the car and turned it to FCOL .....

I was emotionally overwhelmed, and still can't describe what I was feeling right then .... Meat's voice is nothing short of amazing. The sound quality is brilliant .... with the background vocals and orchestra coming in clear and strong (and yet not overwhelming) at just the right time .... absolutely amazing.

When I listened to the rest of the CD, using the proper stereo system in my house, I just sat there with my eyes closed visualizing how incredible the DVD will be ....

Brilliant, astounding, spectacular ..... I just don't have enough words to describe it. A true masterpiece and triumph for Meat and everyone involved. All I can say is

THANK YOU MEAT and bravo bravo !!!

Cool. Menus look pretty good & its nice to have all the special features properly confirmed (definately a audio commentry by Meat ) Bit of a shame that the websites selling the region 1 version are taking their time to get stock & dispatch them. They usually get films early so why not this!!??
