Alright teenage grand-dads, enjoy your DVDs. Maybe if you ask nice enough tDR will design a sweet 8-track jacket or beta-max sleave. Better yet, I'll record my lossless digital copy onto a cassette and send it across the pond via pony-express. Expected date of delivery; never.

I much prefer physical product over digital shit any day... but sadly, I fear I (& my fellow "teenage grandad's) are a dying breed - with the "digital kids" of this world (no personal offence intended BTW UGB) failing to realise that surviving in a band relies heavily upon revune from product sales & the revenue they make from digital is fuck all in the grand scheme of things.

For some stuff - a physical product please! I've yet to've jumped onto the Blu-ray bandwagon. I just want a nice booklet.

@Coops. I roam the boards but never post because I hold the view that my opinions don't really matter , hence I don't bother. But in this particular case I think a Kickstarter project is viable and feasible. Did it really come off as Spam?

Anyway, I think the premise of pooling our resources together and helping out (one of my favourite bands ever) PWEI in producing a Live Show DVD (or any other project for that matter) is a great one.

Sorry if it did come off as Spam though.

Sincerement,

oh. last thing I swear. Since we've gone onto the topic of physical versus digital, since I'm in Canada and I cannot purchase the Chaos and Mayhem remixes that are available through Amazon.co.uk nor can I get it through region-centric (locked?) iTunes.

I heard the sample though and it sounds like it's worth having. Ah well...

Cheers

Most people that post here frequently might have come to the conclusion that I dig the tangible to a mental health issue level, so the digital retorts were mostly in jest. Except if you are a real teenage grand-dad, in which case you are a person with some serious issues.

But, DVDs are such a waste! I have hundreds (possibly thousands if I were to include the crates I shipped off to my parents when downsizing) of DVDs, most of which collect dust only because I've made digital rips of them which are insanely easier to share and watch. If they were to release an instant live that had proper packaging and was transferred to a high quality medium, I would be all over a DVD/CD release. The reality is, these fly-by-night live concert jobs are just CDr/DVDr in a blank paper sleave, so what's the point? Just release it on-line and charge $5, I guarantee they would not only make more money but also get more attention.

Substitute the word 'bought' with 'owned' in my earlier post and the point still stands.
