Greetings Tangmaster,

I'm a little confused as to who is actually going to release this dvd. Is it Voiceprint, CDS, or someone else.?

I know i got that email from them as well.

Shame as visually the concert is a fantastic insight to early TD music making apart from Tony Palmers artfarty nonsense.

I tend to agree, but without Tony Palmer then there'd no live footage of the concert.

For anyone that ordered theirs from the voiceprint website (I think) I sent them an email and got one back and a very nice lady called Jo Softly (dated 5/2/2007) who said that the DVD's will be shipped in two weeks.

My copy arrived this morning. :D
I'm at home but not allowed to watch it until my chores are done. :cry:
I keep glancing at it longingly but the missus is having none of it.

Chores be damned Chris. I've watched mine and the washing up remains in the sink!

Yup, my copy came this morning, I've watched it but I'm a bit dissapointed at the running time, 27 minutes and the music was dubbed on afterwards.

Much the same feeling that some people had at the re-recording of Edgar's Pinnacles.

Surely somone else made a better job of this concert, I always dreamed of owning a copy of this concert but now I just feel hollow! :cry:

Ah well, at least it won't keep you up late!
