  1. I like MFH, but it has always struck me as more a songwriter's album and less a bassist's album; he has complex arrangements, but never really jams - at least not a lot. I'm sure it was very satisfying for him to make, but I think it would be more satisfying for me if he rocked out a bit more. Again, though, I really like it, but wish he'd been more aggressive with his bass playing.

    Would love to see them play either Double Agent or Cold Fire as well.

    That shouldn't be a problem.

     

     

     

    Maybe you meant on an upcoming tour, but I was focused on the last 3 never-before-played posts.

  3. You can watch it at my house. I have it on DVD...or VCD...or something. I forget. I don't see it online, though; it went around the torrent circuit a few years ago and that's where I picked it up. For what it's worth, it's not that great.

    (Though I have wondered what Ged would look like as a blonde.)

    Probably something like this:

  5. Look, I understand being an audiophile. I understand not wanting to needlessly buy every single release that comes out. I understand wanting to get others' opinions before committing to a big purchase. I honestly understand all of these things, and might be inclined to do one or all of them. That said, do we honestly need a new thread for each? So far, this is 2. Couldn't you just say "I like AFtK, Hem, PoW, and SoH [as examples]. Are upgrades worth it?" I understand your interest; I truly do, but is it worth making a new thread for each one?
  6. I wouldn't say everyone would agree. TFE peaked on the (US) charts at #5. Compare that to Signals, which only hit 10, Moving Pictures, which hit 3, PeW, which hit 4, and 2112, which only hit 61. While you may not have liked it, apparently some people did.

    Aside from the different aspect ratio, that music video doesn't have the same resolution as the HD cameras used in shooting the concert, and it would need to be zoomed in on to fill out a 16:9 screen, and that would decrease its sharpness big time.

    I would have found that less distracting than a repeated shift in aspect ratio, but that's just my opinion.

  8. With regard to the sound delay, it seemed spot on most of the time, but I did see a couple of instances of it. I'm curious: in the shots of audio not synching, was that a shot of the screen in the background? The background video is always slightly off, and I'm just curious if we're just getting a shot of that.

     

    Also a big puzzler for me: why, if they letterboxed the Stick It Out video for the background (notice it's not 4:3 behind the stage), did they not do it for the brief scenes on the BD? It's just weird how it'll cut to 4:3 for brief periods to show a snippet of the video. Why not letterbox that, too, for consistency? Not a big deal, but something that really jumped out at me.
