Saw it tonight (in martigues) full house, (butt it's only playing for 1 night). Great show, very nicely shot. Sound in cinema was not too great, but I'll have the DVD next week anyway

I was at the 2nd show myself, but too far away to
Really see anything (Except for the excellent view of the bar ),
So it was good to be in the very 1st row now!

RIP Gary "Gazza" Galbraith - 30 May 1963 / 07 June 2024 - Forever missed.

wonder if this is worth getting… If I find a copy on blu ray under $15, I might… but i'm not shelling out too much, since I know I'll watch it three times tops!

I am VERY happy to report that the stand alone Blu-Ray versions of "Sweet Summer Sun" contain "Emotional Rescue" as a bonus song. The bonus songs are: "Emotional Rescue", "Paint it Black" and "Before They Make Me Run"...no "Tumblin Dice." Either it was an error in all the tracklisting up to this point or it was a last minute switch--- but I am very pleased they came to their senses and tacked on the one track I think we all were looking forward to seeing!

After viewing the BR last night, I give it a B-...it's another stadium/outdoor show and a lot of the subtleties that made the indoor shows during the tour so special are gone. Mick amps it up with the physical stuff which makes his vocal take a backseat once again. It isn't bad but it surely isn't the same as the arena shows.

One thing for sure: it's the loudest Ronnie's ever been mixed. He comes in clear as a freakin' bell. At one point the audio coming from the left speaker was clipping because of how high he was in the mix during a solo. Keith's solos all are passable and non embarassing ala "Shine A Light." Either they fixed the solos in post or Keith really was focused--he does a fine job either way.

Camera work was top notch...great quality footage but a little too many crowd shots for my liking plus too many shots showing off the huge stage. They did their best to capture the little moments on stage be it the smiles shared between band members...there was a very sweet one between Mick and Keith during "Street Fighting Man."

Overall, the concert worked and was a step up from the The Biggest Bang set and "Shine A Light." The set list left a lot to be desired but thank the Lord they added "Emotional Rescue" as a bonus song. It wouldn't have killed them to have had a documentary or interview feature but oh well.

I bought the deluxe version that comes with a book. Skip it. The book is poorly printed...the colors seem washed out.

I listened to the CDs and they sound great. The mix is perfect. Turned up, it's as if I'm at the show. Good job.

This weekend is the blu ray, then the 69 show.
