NEW PARIS DVD/CD

[philipchevron]

I've learned to take Amazon's delivery updates with a massive pinch of salt. As often as not, they're covering their corporate asses on delivery ETAs.

Only ordered mine on Saturday. I'm not expecting to get it this week, although it would be nice.

I was going to wait until the weekend and get it at HMV but I have family matters to attend to.

Hey, Im sure people have asked plenty of these questions, but what editions will be avaliable in the US this march? Should I buy the limited edition w/book now or wait until it is released over here in the states? Thanks

We have been told that all formats will be eventually released. On the other hand, some of the formats are limited in quantity (the vinyl is limited to 2000 pressings, for example), so it's possible those versions/editions will be sold out before they see a release in the territories not part of the initial release.

Mr Chevron
How pleased are you and the band with this release?
Did it came out much better then you expected:-)
I was there at both concerts and both concerts is on my top 4 list of Pogues-concerts
Ordered the Limited Boxset yesterday from http://www.WOWHD.se and I see now it's on the way
If you live in UK the limited Box cost £38.49 Free Shipping
Regards

Yes, we're all quite pleased. They were very good shows and the audiences were fantastic. Both of these facts are quite well reflected in the end result.

Thought the atmosphere was really evident on the DVD. Really adds to the whole thing. Too many live releases feel soul-less despite there being thousands of people in attendance.

Some stunning camera work, too. Some wonderful shots during Fairytale, in particular one of you Phil as the 'snow' is falling.

"Your order of "The Pogues In Paris - 30th..." has been dispatched"

Can't wait to see it!!

[HolySpook]

We regret to inform you that the following items have been delayed:

Pogues "The Pogues In Paris - 30th Anniversary Concert At The Olympia"
Estimated arrival date: December 15 2012 - December 14 2012

Bleeding Amazon....how can HMV in Wigan have them and the tax dodging bastards can't get me one for three weeks?

And, while I am hating them, do they not know that the gap between December 15 2012 and December 14 2012 is a negative number?

I cancelled and reordered choosing expedited delivery and they now reckon mine will arrive on Thursday *imaginary Gandalf beard-stroke*, we shall see!

Hope you do, so you can enjoy it together! That's always better than watching it alone.

it turned up this afternoon
tempted to put it on but on nights so would never have made it too work so when i get home 7.30 tomorrow i will put it on then sit down with a bottle of the water of life and enjoy the show.

[Heather]

Mine was despatched today too.

Estimated delivery Saturday 24th November but I did get the free supersaver delivery.

Hope it doesn't come on Thursday or Friday because then it'll go to the Royal Mail depot and I won't be able to pick it up until Monday.

what a great box ! amazing show, excellent image with nice shots of the crazy audience, nice old photos in the booklet, and moreover that was a fantastic show !!

thanks to all involved in this great release !

HMV updated my order to shipped

However, i was too impatient and rang HMV in Kilkenny to see if they had any stock and guess what? Yep, four copies of the basic DVD only in store Drove imediately over the boarder into the black & amber county, handed over 15 euro and sped back to the safety of the Premier county.

I've now watched it twice and it's phenomenal. The sound quality and the picture (widescreen aspect was a stroke of genius) and the energy and atmosphere that's been captured is immense.That energy and atmosphere is released every time you'll press play.

There's so many little details to talk about but that would spoil the fun for all of those yet to see it. Enjoy.........

P.S. My happy little head made the final cut in one of the crowd shots

Yep. Feckin' eejits. Today's message is somewhat at odds with yesterday's.

Same here. Both HMV and Amazon seem to have finally woken up on Tuesday. Must've been a good party at the weekend.

But my lovely Pogues vinyl is on its way just two days after my turntable, along with the rest of the attached hi-fi, broke down. Terminally. Unbelievable Jeff. So do I now fall for the temptation of a quick fix and buy some ready-made music system, or do I go hunting for separates?

[Edit: The CD/DVD box set has just arrived. It looks lovely. On a wet grey November day, a moment of delight.]
