when did you get yours? mine hasn't shown up yet.

I got mine last Thursday, June 18.

The customs sticker read that it was mailed on June 12 (Friday), so it took less than a week.

When did you order? I ordered mine in early March.

I'm sure you'll be getting it soon. I was surprised it was as nice looking as it was. I've only played the dvd so far. At times during Ian's commentary there are long spells when he doesn't say anything and you forget he's supposed to be giving us his valuable insight while Will's a natural at the narration/commentary. LOL!

So far a few instances have given me chills and made me glad I saw them in NYC, even though they're gearing up to bring OR on a North American road show.

I ordered it in early March too. Maybe it's crossing the U.S. by 40-mule team, or else it'll be on my doorstep when I get home today.

Who knew Will could be so chatty! Sounds like a New York Dolls video I have -- David Jo, not so chatty, Syl Sylvain very chatty ... down to who made their clothes.

I'm looking forward to the OR dog and pony show when it hits L.A. Wonder if these shows will be sit-down affairs like NYC was, or the usual stand-up gigs.

In my day people stood up for a gig. None of these fancy seats like they have nowadays.

Maybe it won't be with the full orchestra so they can play smaller venues and Jack will be able to stand.

I hope they play Las Vegas.

That would make it worth getting.

Now, as a banned forum member is it wrong for me to order? And is the DVD a limited run like the Ocean Rain gigs?

Is it worth 55 dollars?

Alright, I ordered it. Between Will's narrative and supporting the band, how could I not?

Keep in mind the "documentary" commentaries are about 20 minutes each and Ian barely speaks in his. I haven't listened to all of Will's commentary yet, but I enjoyed his narration of the photos. I need to listen to it again. Ian's photo narration is interesting.

Well, I ordered it.

How is the music?

I can't believe I ordered it while being banned.

by **In The Margins** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:13 pm

I haven't listened to the cd yet so I can't comment on the music portion.

BOF may ban you but they'll still take your money.

Actually, it's a pretty cool thing to have. I don't think the production run will be unlimited, at least this version of it.

by **withahip** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:24 pm

Will mine be signed? Or only pre-orders?

by **In The Margins** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:26 pm

I thought the first 1,000 were signed and I remember the offhanded comment from BOF that "those sold out ages ago" or something to that effect. I wouldn't expect a signed copy, but you never know.

by **withahip** » Mon Jun 22, 2009 10:33 pm

What the hell!?!?!?!? :wink:

Either way, glad I ordered it.

I thought they said that all copies would be signed, but the first 1000 would also be dedicated to the individual? Mine arrived Thursday, 18th. The sound on the CD is much better than I'd dared hope, it's a nice little set. Great Ocean Rain cover with the Echo Arena superimposed in the background.
