Live At Pompeii DVD released in France

Post by FloydNZ »

The new official Live At Pompeii - The Directors Cut DVD has been released only in France and is available from Amazon.fr.
I have spoken to a friend in France who assures me that it is not one of the crappy bootlegs found on ebay, but the real thing with all the extras and the artwork which was shown in the 3rd edition of Storms Mind Over Matter book.

I can only assume that Adrian Maben (the director) has decided to release it in his own country before the rest of the world.

That kinda sucks. It is not going to be availlable in North America until October 20th, I believe.

REMEMBER North Americans, do not buy this french version, as it will not work in Region 1 (North American) DVD players. Unless of course you have a method of conversion, or a Region 2 DVD player.

I've got a region free pal<>ntsc converter dvd player. Its great. I bought the Back to the Future Trilogy months before it came out here in the US. It has come in handy many times. I might just get the France version.
