Is there a firm release date 4 this?

It should be there before 2009.

I've finally set up my 5.1 system with SACD player and all, these days. So, after listening to the (awesome) multichannel version of Dark Side I *really* can't wait for the Pulse DVD and Wish You Were Here on SACD!!!

Yeah, I'd hoped to have this in time for my birthday which is this coming Sunday. Yeah, I guess that ain't happenin'. Maybe by christmas.

Of course, the real truth may just be that it's really all a big joke. There really ISN'T a PULSE DVD, they're just having a big laugh at all our expenses. At least, that's the way I'm starting to feel about it.

On a good note, I DID pick up a DVD-A of Metallica's black album and I have to say the mix was incredible. If the PULSE mix is anything like that, well, I can hardly wait.

It is really a bit of a piss take, but when this comes out I'll be straight tothe shop!

of course the dvd is going to take a while to get perfect. have you seen what there working with footage wise? it looks like it was filmed on a big old home camcorder

April 5, 2006 was amazing

Well, it looks a bit better than that. But, yeah, video wasn't nearly the quality in 94 as it is now. It was probably recorded using something like Betamax (which has long been the preferred format of, for instance, TV news crews and the like). It doesn't have nearly the quality and dynamic range of current equipment (which, in turn, doesn't have anywhere near the quality and dynamic range of the human eye (or equipment we'll probably have available in 2005 for that matter)). Digital remastering and editing each frame can go a long way to improving things but you can only get so much out of it. Still, it's got to be better than my crappy-assed VCD version. It goes all blocky and splotchy on me, especially when you've got a lot going on with the lights (Comfy Numbs and Run Like Hell are especially bad).

it will be released december 5th 2005. or so i've just read.

PINK FLOYD RELEASE PULSE
THE DVD OF THEIR LAST EVER CONCERT

5 DECEMBER 2005

On 5 December 2005, Pink Floyd will release their much anticipated DVD, PULSE, on EMI Records. This landmark release captures the last ever Pink Floyd tour in 1994, and was filmed at London's Earls Court, on one of the recordbreaking 14 nights there. The two disc release contains a full concert performance from Pink Floyd's 80 date global Division Bell tour, with rare backstage footage and previously unseen extras.

Pink Floyd are a band whose innovative and groundbreaking music is matched by the startling imagery created by longtime design collaborator, Storm Thorgerson. The Pulse DVD looks as good as it sounds, mixed in mind expanding 5.1 surround sound and digitally remastered by James Guthrie, it includes a magical collection of exclusive extras, new artwork and menu graphics designed by Thorgerson.

The concert is in two parts, the first half sees seminal performances by David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright of tracks such as Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2), One of These Days and Keep Talking, while disc two features the classic album The Dark Side of the Moon performed in its entirety.

Never before seen rarities include Bootlegging the Bootleggers, behind the scenes footage showing a snapshot of life on the road with one of the world's biggest rock bands and a screen film of Speak to Me.

The Pulse DVD captures Pink Floyd's final concert tour, although no-one knew it to be at the time. It was the last concert they played together live, and their show-stopping appearance at this year's Live 8, confirmed their legendary status.

Hmmm, I'm suddenly interested again!

I'm almost but then again totally not. Don't care much for an old fart playing the guitar like he needs to take a shit.
