Ste, you might still be able to cancel the order. I see there are other grey area DVDs of RFH and Wembley out there too, both Audience-shot I believe.
Hopefully officialmversions will come our way one day…

RFH? Where did you see that?

The Chiba show was released in Japan, got a copy of that with good picture and audio. With extras too.

Have to be careful what you say in case this is a board member - they were definitely enjoying the show, that's for sure!  LOL

Looks like You're So Good to Me was added for yesterdays show too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whXGqd9Yznk

Although it's not the full song, this version to my ears sounds excellent:

Especially the first verse.

Thanks for the chords! If you could post complete chords, that would be great  Grin

One inaccuracy, yep, but not a big deal in the scheme of things....

Thanks for the link Pretty Funky, made interesting reading! Wonder which venue the swimming pool was?!

I just realised that Brian goes falsetto(!!!) at about 0:30 in the Little Girl I Once Knew clip.

Think that's Jeff...

Does it again at 1:43 in the clip, seems like Brian to me. In Forever at RAH, he also try to go for the Falsetto part, but not as wholeheartedly as at Wembley!

Thanks to all who have posted reviews and thoughts from the show, I was at the RAH gig and it sounds like an equally good night, although glad we got the few extra songs.

From the footage I've seen, Brian looks slightly more on in the Wembley gig than RAH, never seen him smile so much. I think aswell it doesn't look forced, unlike some of the earlier filmed concerts.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_sMw4_R8YE&feature=channel&list=UL

In Sail On Sailor in the tour, Brian either finished the song with a low note, or an octave up, in my opinion always sounds better on higher octave. From 3:02 in this, he goes low at first, then decides to go for the higher note and finishes after the rest of the band I think - sounds great anyway!

Seems like they're on stage doing it again....

They started at about 7:45 yesterday
10  Smiley Smile Stuff / Concert Reviews / Re: Show 73: Royal Albert Hall - London, UK 9/27/12 on: September 28, 2012, 09:51:10 AM
Ha, too right it should be on DVD, although it would have to be double disc! It was a very good crowd, and pretty much full, only the odd spare seats.

Wonder what Wembley will be like tonight!
11  Smiley Smile Stuff / Concert Reviews / Re: Show 73: Royal Albert Hall - London, UK 9/27/12 on: September 27, 2012, 04:39:36 PM
Haha missed that bit John!

Didn't have a very good view of Brian from my seat, but was it just me, or was he not using a teleprompter? I suspect he was, but it didn't look like it was in the mock piano like it normally is? Anyone who went know?

Seemed like Brian wanted to play Summer's Gone. Maybe reading into it too much but probably a small hint in doing it.
12  Smiley Smile Stuff / Concert Reviews / Re: Show 73: Royal Albert Hall - London, UK 9/27/12 on: September 27, 2012, 04:19:29 PM
Yep, there were cameras on stage, no massive TV production type ones, but the professional looking handheld ones - am sure we'll see some clips turn up soon!

The ovation after IJWMFTT was massive, the biggest of the night.

Was something very special about it, think the band liked the venue. Hopefully all the Wembley goers tomorrow get the same gig!

Forgot to say, didn't write a setlist, but Scott announced they were doing 61 songs! Not bad, it finished bout 11:15!
13  Smiley Smile Stuff / Concert Reviews / Re: Show 73: Royal Albert Hall - London, UK 9/27/12 on: September 27, 2012, 04:09:17 PM
At the hotel after the gig - wow! What a show!

The only gig I'll see on the tour, but picked well! Brian was ON form, really really on. Never heard him speak so much, even came back for a third bow and said "See you again, drive safely", first for this tour.

Summer's Gone was a very unexpected second encore. Our Prayer sounded great.

Hope there's a Dvd of this gig, deserves it
14  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: BB's free show in London on: September 24, 2012, 01:02:53 PM
who added 'blossom world we find!'

Jeff has been doing that for a while now.

Yeah and I wish he'd stop doing it! Let Brian sing!

Great gig so far  Grin

HERE WE GO....

Who's listening?

I am - should be good! Preview for Thursday  Grin

Haha, what's going on at the start?! Brian jamming and everyone clapping along!
17  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Brian's piano playing on 2012 on: August 09, 2012, 03:56:24 PM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDqBMh1FIvM - 0:11 and 4:07 (great performance by the way)

Video shows that although Brian's piano is on and audible, tis indeed low in the mix, maybe more at some shows than others.

Thanks for the links Rocker - what a great performance and interview - everyone on top form.

Thanks all - hope others find this useful aswell!

Once I get the album through and if there are any others left, will work out the chords for them and post  Grin

Looks like some gig!

Is this the largest BB audience in recent years i.e after Live Aid one (Brian's Glastonbury gig was probably more)
22  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / TWGMTR Chords on: June 11, 2012, 08:58:55 AM
Hi All,

Has anyone managed to work out the chords on any of the songs on the new album apart from TWGMTR? Probably the most complicated one done!

Thanks in advance
23  Smiley Smile Stuff / Concert Reviews / Re: The First Gig: Anselmo Valencia Ampitheater Tucson, AZ 4/24/12 (SETLIST/REVIEWS) on: April 26, 2012, 02:46:10 PM
Didn't notice it on Knebworth either.

I'm played in lots of loud rock bands for years and only started wearing earplugs about 8 months ago, so my hearing is probably pretty far gone.

That's because autotune was not present. This was 1980. Autotune (Antares Vocal Processor) wasn't around until 1997.

Think with regards to Knebworth, on the DVD version around today, Mike's voice has definetly been enhanced - live it won't have been as you say, but for the version we see of the concert, there has been some work.

For anyone who can't hear it at the AZ concert, listen to the Surfer Girl Brian-solo mid section, on the second "I.... would take you" - the pitch on the I fluctuates from perfect to zero, whereas normally in concert it would go a note or two down.

But having said that, it really does not matter, it's just great to see them performing live together again and doing a great job.
24  Smiley Smile Stuff / Concert Reviews / Re: Brian At Glastonbury on: April 26, 2012, 08:24:20 AM
As a UK fan, it's very annoying to watch this back and think "why wasn't I there"

I don't think I've ever seen a crowd as big as that as Glastonbury - ever - there were a few weak moments vocally from Brian (WIBN) but overall it was such a solid performance considering the amount of gig-goers.

Hoping that one day there is footage of more of the concert as opposed to the select songs - Little Saint Nick at a Summer Festival?!  LOL
25  Smiley Smile Stuff / Concert Reviews / Re: The First Gig: Anselmo Valencia Ampitheater Tucson, AZ 4/24/12 (SETLIST/REVIEWS) on: April 26, 2012, 08:21:21 AM
I guess one way of looking at the auto-tune on Brian is at least it is still live - perhaps not ideal, but live.

You'd be surprised, I do know of at least one well-known artist who clear lip-synches every single one of his concerts - now that really is something to be angry about, that really is being cheated to another level

Excellent setlist, and I'm really hoping that they are UK bound at some point soon!
