Hey folks. As most know, there wasn't much from 46664 shown to us over here in the UK. Only the crap 1-hour round-up. So, I was browsing the TV channels tonight and came across the 1-hour version. Just catching the last bit, I watched it. Brian looked goofy at the end!
Anyway, the point is this... At the end, some text came up saying that it will be played uncut this Saturday!
If you get the Community channel the 46664 concert will be shown UNCUT this Saturday from 7pm till midnight! So anyone looking to record the ENTIRE coverage will be able to at long last.
Adam.
P.S. I know this conflicts with and possibly harms the dvd release - but this is a nice surprise since we lost out to the SHITE edited version.
dont forget that you get dolby digital surround with the DVD instead of that 'crappy' stereo sound from TV :-)
and the TV version will problably be 4:3 standard ratio while the DVDs are likely to have widescreen 16:9
REAL widescreen, not a cropped image, I've got the ZFD broadcast which was also widescreen and I've seen the MTV version which was 4:3, cropped at the sides.
I hope you realize that when you just tape it and don't buy the DVD's, aids-foundations will get less money? Profits from the sales will go to them you know...
Calm down, no need to get your knickers in a twist, Fredster!
I'm pretty sure that the vast majority of people on this forum know that the 46664 releases are all in the name of 'charidy' (especially after the parasite debate a few months ago).
"I hope you realize that when you just tape it and don't buy the DVD's, aids-foundations will get less money? Profits from the sales will go to them you know..."
Wait, don't you sell pirated or bootlegged discs yourself? One might get the impression you're trying to eliminate competition...
Lol. What a ruckus! I'll still buy the dvd. I'm just happy that I'll get to see the full thing NOW. And surround sound on concerts aren't exactly the best, are they? Even when done well, they're not exactly...surprising.
Peace,
Adam.
Edit: If I want the same kind of 5.1 sound they give these concerts, I'll do it myself. Childsplay. ANYONE can do it.
I taped it. I probably won't buy the DVD because I don't like World music, hate U2 and lack a surround sound system, so why should I buy it? But I'll be buying the album so I will do my bit.
I pre-ordered from Blackstar.
I just checked on Play and they don't have it yet, but it reminded me that Red Dwarf series 4 is out on Monday...yipee! :)
They also have an SAS Band DVD listed for the same release date as the 46664 DVD: link
I'm gonna BUY the DVD's. For the fight against AIDS and because all my Queen stuff is legal!
More poeple who gonna buy the DVD or CD?
that is if it is sold in the US
Ok, I'm worried. I looked up the channel's listing for 7pm and 46664 concert is NOT there! What the heck!? I'll still tune in to double-check, but I'm very disappointed that it might, apparently, not be on after-all.
Adam.
I thought I'd gotten the date wrong and it was last week, too. BUT, I posted on the 8th of February. That was Sunday. That was when I saw the 1-hour version was on. So, unless they buggered up the advertising...
Adam.
I'm not wrong. The Community channel advertised it wrong after the 1-hour edit. Remember my first post? So, they got it wrong. I was only repeating what I saw.
Peace,
Adam.
Done some digging on the site and have found the following...
"The Community Channel will be repeating the whole 46664 concert again in March if you miss it. So put the date in your diaries! Saturday Mar 27 from 7pm to midnight, and then Sunday Mar 28 from 11am to 6pm." link
