I don't like it, but I will give it a 3 simply because of the fact that it's probably the only video ever in which you can see a person light a cigarette on a laser beam. How cool is that?

Were those backup singers wearing spandex?
This video is somewhat cringe worthy.

I like it. It's very atmospheric and "warm" (for lack of a better adjective). And it features the sublime Rachel Fury.

Shame it hasn't been released on DVD.

I still prefer it to PULSE...I am one of the few who seems to like the editing.

Is this film in the same situation as PULSE, as in, it can never be released in HD/Blu-Ray?

draf why does your tracklisting include The Final Cut EP?
I coulda sworn dave famously said "we prefer to forget about that one"

folks who really need this on dvd should know there is a suspicious looking greymarket dvd with anachronistic PULSE-era artwork and a different title, easily found in mainstream chainstores
theres actually a lot of bootleg looking music dvds in mainstream stores dvd sections these days, mostly out of europe on labels Ive never heard of ... is the copyright situation for video material the same as what it was for music 15 yrs ago perhaps, when there used to be a lot of silver cd boots mostly on italian labels until the GAAT treaty caught up with them? I have an awesome late 70s Tom Waits tv broadcast (Romeo Is Bleeding) on the same label that put out the unofficial dvd release of Delicate Sound...

I loved it when it was released as basically this was all we had!

Feels very dated now, hate the editing, Comfotably Numb 2nd solo is edited to the point of butchery.
I do like the feel of the newer songs, but you can tell this had an awful lot of over dubbing in the studio.

With that said, if ever there was a poll for "Best looking backing singer" Rachel Fury would score highly!

surely this could be converted to DVD even if like pulse it was just a 4:3 release. Not sure if they edited down the track lists for the night so maybe do an expanded release as they must have filmed more than one night

I don't like, but sometimes I watch this while drink some beers/vodka. I don't like aMLotR songs.

Unwatchable. Unless you like over-processed slo-mo bathed in blue light.

I was going to try and cut this some slack but then that appalling video for Learning to Fly cropped up on my Facebook feed.

Gilmour smiling at the camera and that guy with the mullet prancing about on stage.

Just a horrible, misjudged cash grab. I’ve no idea how any real
PF fan can make excuses for it.

Animals seems light years away.

I think it'll be the audio that wins it over hopefully?
Unboxing video of the stand alone reissue (that I thought they'd issue individually sooner)
