Porcupine Tree - new live Blu-Ray coming later this year!

[hedkandi]

I see that can book at Amazon Spain (BD + DVD edition). It comes through France.
I booked that one with the exclusive CD (Amazon UK), that until today don't give more details.

I listened to C/C today. Enjoyed it much more than I did a year ago.

Great idea. I am listening to R.E.M now but when done going to listen to my ATMOS of Closure/Continuation.
I did order the new LIVE from Amazon US Arriving Friday
$26.25.

Snap, just read my emails, and it'll arrive before I do, as I'm still abroad for work!

Mine is on the way from Amazon - due Friday. Very glad I saw them live in Denver but really wanted a quality memento of the experience.

Shipped!

Mine is here, 2CD/2Blu-ray box with a book of photos of the concert I'll never look at again and there are 2 double LP sized gatefold sleeves with 2 discs in each, there's an obi strip vertically round the box, halfway into the Atmos mix so far, sounds pretty good.

Over 2½ hours of music

@svengaleekie What about the famous unknow bonus?

Just waiting for my Blu-ray / DVD set to turn up imminently, it's apparently 4 stops away...

The reasons I didn't order the 4 disc set as usual for a PT / SW release were mainly a complete lack of information of disc content together with my disappointment of the PT CC Deluxe Edition and SW's TFB Deluxe Box considering the quality and content of past PT / SW deluxe editions.

Please could you list or post a photo of what is actually on both Blu-rays now that you have the box in your hands? From the description I saw it looked like the second disc was just the audio from the first disc, which seemed kind of pointless. I hope there's a bit more to it than that!

Thanks in advance!

@svengaleekie What about the famous unknow bonus?

Wilson, Barbieri & Harrison talking about touring, their relationships, their future etc. And backstage footage. About 14 minutes long.

I ordered the BD/DVD for the same reasons. First, I don't need the cd's and second it looks like the second BD is audio only? Sure, it states that there's dolby atmos, 5.1 and hi res stereo, but how does that differ from BD1 which states the same for audio? Similarly, the BD/DVD set appears to offer mostly duplication on the DVD, just minus Dolby Atmos. However, nowhere are any of these sets contents explicitly described in complete detail. It's really getting tiresome that there always seems to be something squirrelly about SW's recent releases - something that smells bad and costs a lot of money.

Exactly the same tracklist & audio but without the video or the bonus.

About the last words i think that is due at the fast selling of the editions (the most of them used as we know at second expensive market).
They know that and they are take the chance to sell all that can.
The collector edition killed the progressive band.

Thanks, the Blu-ray / DVD only lists the concert film on the back of the package, no mention of bonus features at all, although the original blurb mentioned bonus features so I had assumed that Disc 1 from each set would be the same. Burning Shed lists the Blu-ray / DVD as...

'The Blu-Ray includes the full concert film, and bonus features, Dolby Atmos surround sound, 5.1 Audio and 24 bit High Resolution Audio (Excluding bonus features). The DVD includes the full show.'

I assumed this to mean that the bonus features were not in surround, only stereo which is pretty typical. Not had a chance to play it yet but will have a look later this evening to see if the bonus stuff is included, again very poor information for this release. Does it say if the audio on Disc 2 is a higher bit rate or any other differences to the audio on Disc 1??? Seems very odd to include an extra disc essentially repeating content already on Disc 1!

Just received my copy of the BD/DVD edition. Plan to spin it later today. But after seeing the contents in my hands and reading the last few entries in this thread, it's clear that a single standalone blu-ray release would have been more than enough to cover the material. The words that describe both the 4 disc and 2 disc editions of this are: Duplication Duplication!

Jealous you guys have got yours. Mine has shipped from Burning Shed, but I don't expect it for a while.

Putting together a watch party with the other PT nuts I know. I promised I would stand in front of them and spill beer on them so it feels authentic

Same here (the Porcupine Tree has arrived, not I've been with your family all day )

My Juno preorder got cancelled as they said they couldn't get it and I see many sites it is not available.
Did they not produce enough copies as very puzzling

What's my best option to get a copy as don't see it for sale on amazon.ca.

Is deep discount my best option as says in stock and see they have a a 15% off now with code jolly15
