Solstace Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 I didn't say unreasonable, if you were referring to my post, I said uncontrollable, earlier someone chucked his handheld rad up in the air, I don't think he caught it either, but I'm definitely impressed. ] Chris<{POST_SNAPBACK}> ** laughs out loud **! Sorry Chris, I was more addressing a common veiwpoint that artists tend to be somewhat unreasonable in the quantity and nature of their technical requests, some of which will have more than likely created the feedback situations I was commenting on earlier. here endeth my rants... :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick S Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Will there be a cd / dvd? EMI have released sgt peppers live edition in 3 hours of it played.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> I believe EMI paid around £2 million for exclusive DVD rights...and on the subject of EMI releasing Sgt. Pepper - it's been released on iTunes...not quite sure what Paul McCartney would make of that (none of the Beatles' back catalogue is on iTunes, because of legal action between Apple Records and Apple Comp...)

JCoster Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 ...and on the subject of EMI releasing Sgt. Pepper - it's been released on iTunes.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Within 45 minutes of it being played if Jonathon Ross tells us correctly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All (almost) the effect of a normal rig, but plenty of light for the TV cameras. All done with the LED matrix. He's not doing badly either!

KindredHyperion Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 45 minutes... bloddy hell! Does anyone have any more information on this revolving stage concept I read about in the Metro? Apparently, like the original Live8, there is a revolving stage so that the current band can play while the last pack up and the next band set up. I saw no completely revolving stage on the telly, although on some quick top-shots of the stage I saw a large circle on the floor that perhaps revolves...? Any more knowledge on this? The lighting was good, although I agree that it was not so effective in the day time. Oh how I would have loved to have been one of those 2000 roadies!

MartinT Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 I bet the monitor engineer was real happy with Peter Kay shoving his mike into the monitors getting feedback for a gag... Surprised the crew haven't tw@**ed him getting in the way of soundchecks etc - glad the Beeb cut away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris999998 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Thought the amount of feedback I was hearing throughout some of the acts was inexcusable, <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Loving the video images of various world leaders in the background to The Who's "Who are you?"

david.elsbury Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 What were the round barrel-like things on the front of the stage in Philly? there were 2 / 3 of them. Edit: also, what's the big display over the stage that displays text? Its huge and bright, I'm thinking a custom LED (cos isn't it hard to get a nice white out of an RGB mix?)

Having not seen them in action, I'm not sure if they were for cooling or an effect... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when the BBC cut back it looked asthough he was coming back onstage, so maybe they chucked him off temporarily.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
computer Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 although you could see him onstage in the background of the Michael George interview... Plus that giant screen seems to do blue text and white text, and the blue doesn't seem a lot dimmer than the white... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
