I got my copy today at a pre-Brexit exchange rate of just £18 delivered! Only watched a few minutes so far, but already the HD allowed me to spot things I couldn't see on the youtube version (ie. my good friend Kev and I - very faintly in the darkness of the audience!). A superb souvenir of an incredible evening! Did you see me? ;-)

Watching it right now. Honestly, the DTS-HD MA 5.1 audio is a bit weak. I really have to pump up the volume to get it to sound the least bit powerful. The PCM 2.0 expanded using DPLII sounds as good or better and in standard stereo sounds great as well. Not sure what happened with the 5.1 track. It's not defective or anything, but it does sound a bit compressed. The video is alright. A lot of compression artifacts that are likely due to this being shot on digital video I suppose. The video is 1080i, by the way. It's great having this concert on physical media and it's certainly better than watching it on Youtube.

A superb souvenir of an incredible evening! Did you see me? ;-) Only in the bar afterward! (Need you check the row where you were sitting) I was vaguely visible a few times (both from the stage, and at least once from one of those swooping camera shots) on the YouTube version, near the front about 3 or 4 rows back, stage left. Should be clearer on the Blu-ray, I hope. I remember where you guys were sat, so I'll keep my eyes peeled when I get my copy! (Only ordered it with THE ROCKETEER this week!) Does it go through all the intros in dual languages as it did live, or is it edited for just the English intros?

I found this incredibly moving and had to fight back tears several times. Not just because of his beautiful music but just seeing how moved (and surprised) he was by the love he received. Great performances all around and a very interesting symposium where it was clear how desillusioned he had become by the Hollywood style of things.

According to the listing on Varese's website, this is already (and unfortunately) sold out! It does say "Temporarily Sold Out" so hopefully it's just sold out of first pressing and more will be on the way. I don't think this was a limited release ? No, it says "Temporarily Out Of Stock". That's not the same as sold out. I guess the disc is selling so well so they have to print more copies and it will be in stock again soon.

Temporarily out of stock and order button grayed out saying sold out. I can understand the mistake. Thought sold out till your comment made me look again. I didn't see it also said sold out.
