Live at Pompeii CD, Vinyl, DVD, Bluray & Deluxe in 2017

Post by nosaj »

The interwebs and the more obsessed PF fans have discovered a 60 minute version appears to be in the works for television or maybe movie theatres...BUT, I want a full concert on bluray and CD soon.

I'm with you. 60 minutes?! What about the other 120 minutes?!

I can't wait to see the DVD!

I've yet to see even one indication of an official DVD release from any of those shows yet.

same. but i have seen an ad that *looks* official promoting a 60 minute version. if it is true, i hope the 60 minute version is an edit for tv.

i was at both pompeii shows last july. to skip the other 120 minutes would be a tragedy. gilmour has never cut his films off prematurely before, so i hope he doesn't this time. AND i hope a dvd from pompeii includes him scolding the crowd about echoes. (happened on night 2, friday 8 luglio).

those two shows were magnificent. transcendent.

The crowd had been singing echoes at him (both nights actually,) and finally he said, "look guys. echoes is a lovely song. lovely song. but it's kind of a conversation between two people and rick is dead. so we don't do that one anymore. much though i've loved playing it. non possiamo."

night two, friday july 8, just before he played Today.

Good for Gilmour. It would be utterly wrong for him to play 'Echoes' without Rick.

I'm really glad he didn't. Plus pulling it out just for Pompeii would have left those who attended the other shows feeling short changed.

Seeing him and Rick play Echoes live at the Albert Hall in 2006 is still the highlight of my gigging experiences.

So his wife posted a photo of David working with Director Gavin elder on Pompeii footage

So it's either a DVD or made for TV show

Its a DVD-Blu Ray release which will have a 60 min edited broadcast on tv to promote it

https://www.instagram.com/p/BTuJDRAFp79/ & the name of the release could be by going one of the hashtags "return to pompeii"

Where's the confirmation it's a blu-ray?

Either way I can't wait.

Well duh! He wrote it!
As in he wrote a clumsy riff in 7s with silly lyrics (out of context they're kind of stupid), to which the band added a progression to 4s and a sax and crazy guitar solo. But it's all Roger otherwise. Genius.
