Now I'm sure some of us may be split between this - but what on earth is going on with all the graphics and stuff? I want to see the band in all their glory, not computer graphics and TD on a small square on my 42inch plasma!!!! It's just a total distraction for me.
Eastgate and TD, what were you thinking????
How disappointed I am after the long wait for this
When I pay 27 euros for a TD DVD I want to see TD, this reminds me of the 1993 Live in USA release!
I really hope the Tenerife/Brian May collaboration is better.
Sorry for the negative post guys, this is one disgruntled fan and I'm sure I'll get slated for my comments but I really hope they don't ruin future releases like they have done with this.
I remember I bought the Porcupine Tree live DVD Arriving Somewhere. Everybody was raving about that one, but I was very disappointed. When I watch a live DVD I want to see the band as they appear on stage. I want to feel like I'm attending the concert. But that PT DVD was just a two hour long music video, with all kinds of graphics distorting the pictures all the way through.
I have not seen the Budapest DVD from TD yet, but I can really understand HarryPotter No7 here. If the video is just filled with graphics and distortions to the actual pictures of a band performing on stage, I would certainly agree with his viewpoint.
On the other hand... with so many quite similar concert DVD's from TD, I guess they can come away with doing this once... just for a change.
