Re: pay per view



Dave your right i had a look at the equipment they were using at the atlanta
show and there is no reason why they couldnt release any of the shows on
this tour.  Maybe they will follow Pearl jam's lead by releasing all their
shows from their European tour on cd.. Did you all hear about that!  I
actually bought a couple.  But what a great idea. I think they are one of
the few bands that could do such a thing and not lose their spark for high
sales.

ANd regarding the Gary Glitter thing if his record would make releasing a
video a problem why don't they just release one of the shows that he wasnt a
part of, now maybe im wrong but didnt someone else fill in for him later in
the tour.  Like the Nissan show. It doenst sound like him on the  "Taking
the magic bus to Nissan" boot.
