Yeah, February is right around the corner &, so far, no sign of the Vegas
Job DVD being released in the States. No one has it listed for pre-order,
anyway.

No, it's only available as a Region 2 in the U.K. But people keep say-
ing that if you have a recently-made, region-free DVD player, the Vegas
Job DVD plays fine.
I'll have to check to see if my DVD player is region-free. It's only
about a year old.
I'm not sure why this hasn't been released in the States yet. The whole
thing is kinda shady anyways. I don't think The Who Group wanted it re-
leased but Pixelon had the rights & they sold everything when they went
belly-up.
Perhaps the U.S. release has been blocked somehow. I don't know.
