I bought my sticker today.
Image quality is nice.
The complete version of Spanish Caravan is great
Paul and his crew didn't shoot as much the audience as they should (in my perspective).
It's a nice release but again I would easily change this with a complete release of Isle of Wight or even better a (if possible) extended and improved version of Roundhouse.
I agree Silver. I got my sticker that came with a free DVD the other day. I have to say I enjoyed the concert better than watching the old version. I still don't think it is a very exciting show.
I liked the fact that the chambers brothers were interviewed.
Starting pre production on a sketch show. More soon.
Yes Roughie. A red sticker (not a golden one). The DVD is nice but not exciting. A few new things but basically old stuff. If you balance this with London Fog and Matrix on the shelves...
There's something rotten in the Doors kingdom.
I'm losing hope to get LF for christmas. I would like to buy this goodie to myself

The HB video release debuted at #1 on the Billboard Music Video Chart which is good news for the propect of future releases. Their relentless advertising on Facebook paid off.

Yes. Preceding the xmas 2067. The year we will get Matrix (from the masters).
Hey Roughie, this management has the magic power to makes us agree in 99% of the situations.

But there is still no way that there would be any market for physical releases and box sets.

Well we knew they had to have a skill somewhere.

I did in Sydney, Australia and it was awesome. I hadn't seen the concert for a year or two, it was almost like watching it for the first time.
Before the concert one of the special features was played, a 20 min interview with Ray, Ray, Bruce and the Chambers Brothers.
There were 30 odd people in the cinema and you could hear a pin drop, it was really great seeing the Doors at the cinema.
Tried to. Phoned and emailled the cinema where it was ostensibly playing and never heard anything. Wasn't on their website or anything. The date came and passed. The only place I could find any info was on the Doors site. In other words, I am doubtful it actually played here.

Clearly, to me they used too many unimportant shots while they could have used better parts as it shows in this video clip. Not to mention the cropping which at times cuts Jim in half. I decided not to be too sticky with the Doors, I mean the way they produce their releases nowadays as the fuck-ups became so regular that all of them doesn't even count after all, but sadly they blew this one as well. It could have been made much much better with more proper eyes deciding how to switch between the cameras.

I'm not a huge fan of the jumping camera angles with each "fuck" segueing into the slo-mo "fuck" or the slo-mo drumming during LMF. They should have just dropped the slo-mo shots altogether. Overall, I really enjoyed this release, but it definitely has some flaws, the slo-mo shots in particular. I would've preferred the real-time shot of Jim screaming "NOW" in WTMO to the slo-mo shot that they used. Regarding the angles, this release has some advantages over the previous release. It was cool to see Jim charging the mic at the beginning of WTMO which couldn't be seen on the previous release.

So they really did that? I wonder who came up with that brilliant idea...
They'd be better off releasing any- and everything from here on out in its raw and untouched form, every single time they try to "enhance" or "improve" on anything it turns to shit. Leave well enough alone... or something like that.

maybe the lights went off after each song ? because in the unseen footage between songs where we can see Jim in the dark .
If there was light between songs then i find it really stupid what they did
