This is not an error and will have to do with the amount of film being put on the disc. So no need of returning to the shop. Just look at the back of the DVD and you'll know what I mean! btw: The show's brilliant isn't it!!!! -------------- "And now we're going to play Platinum!" Back to top

Perhaps Exegesis is to blame. Back to top

LOL   I doubt it, as we have Amarok, TSODE etc etc and many more greats   PLUS I like Light + Shade, what's wrong with it?   -------------- When the night's on fi-ya, do you need love's arms to hold yew? :D Back to top

Anyway the Exposed dvd is great , the only thing that i find strange is the way that mike interacts with the crowd.At times childish and others well distant .It must have been exegesis time Back to top

His interaction is almost zero and even Gilmour interacts more with the audience. Well this is his opinion, but I do like his clothes and cool to see him live when he was young... can't believe it... he was only 4 years older than me now... Not that I feel mature in any way -------------- "And now we're going to play Platinum!" Back to top

Actually, I feel the opposite way. From what I understand he did Incantations parts 3 and 4 after Exegesis, and I very much prefer these parts to the first two. They just seem to have so much more life and energy to them, at least in my view. As for the DVD, it was very interesting to see such an early concert, in particular such a different interpretation of Tubular Bells. I very much enjoyed it, although I wish he hadn't gotten rid of those fast solos from Incantations parts 3 and 4. I would really love to see him play those. -------------- Thank-you for helping us help you help us all. Back to top

You can almost see at him when he plays that there is so much going on in his mind at times. He is an over-thinker I bet. Back to top
