    A band from the 90's doesn't need to use the technology from the 90's, you know...

    How about a Bluray?

    Well, the quality don't get better by just release it on a blu-ray, I suppose it's a too small market for a high-tech remaster.

    Was interested - then saw it wasn't the vinyl so will hold off.

    I'm sure they shot that show in a higher resolution than 720x480...

    Probably not? The majority of stuff in the late 70s/80/90s was filmed on videotape. Videotape is pretty limited. That's why live concert releases of older concerts are so rare on bluray. It wasn't very often that a band was able to get their show shot on film (opposed to videotape).

    One could hope the Mad Season show was done on film (and a high quality film like 32mm) but the odds are against it, as it's never been that common to shoot concerts on film.

    Damn. I thought this was going to be vinyl.

    Thanks but no thanks.

    Guess it's true, otherwise they might already have announced it... Darn...

    Says the 2nd disc will be unreleased live tracks, as well as 3 tracks recorded back in the day for a second album with Mark Lanegan finishing the vocals. Plus the full show at The Moore with surround sound :D

    Might as well pre-order. Classic album.

    But in a perfect world, this had been the package:

    -VINYL from original master 180g
    -BLU-RAY (or maybe two) including Moore show in 5.1 + all possible concert audios (being a bootleg or not - all Mad Season shows are available) + all the promo videos + original album in 5.1 and stereo 96kHz/24bit audio
    -booklet including pictures & stories

    They need to give a track listing, etc before I decide to buy or not...
