With less than a week to go before we all get our grubby little mits on the first official dvd that the band will actually see some of the money from, what's everyone looking forward to the most on it?

Me, I'm looking forward to more insights to touring like the Birmingham to Wolverhampton rant and more of our favourite drummers facial expressions.

In the new Classic Rock (which is brilliant as ever) it got 8 out of 10.

Does anyone know if the "Revolution" video will cut to the "live at Wolves" section half way through or will the entire song be performed in the studio?

Just got home to an e-mail saying my DVD has been dispatched. :D
About time too, I could do with some cheering up.

Rock Sound reviews were pretty tough in this issue, I don't understand how a magazine can sing a band's praises on one page and then slag them off in the next section, the Eureka Machines coverage being a case in point. Obviously the articles were written by different people, but you'd think there'd be some more joined-up thinking in there.
At least the positive one is by the deputy editor so perhaps we can look forward to more positive stuff in future.

Yay, mine's on its way as well. :D

I never pay attention to reviews til i've seen or heard something for myself. I personally don't like a lot of stuff that loads of other people love. I think someone once said something about opinions............

Are we talking Clint Eastwood in "The Dead Pool"?

What was their reasoning behind the 4 out of 10?

The reviewer probably didn't get "any" the night before he wrote the review.
