That seems a bit random. I don't recall this being available in any form at all.

Was it a vintage year? Try as I might I can remember nothing about it, though I was definitely there. Not an overly inspiring track listing.

Which was rather terrible as I recall - pixillation at various points throughout the programme.

It's been a while since I watched it, but I don't remember that. Time to whip it out, so to speak.

The sound on it was quite good, but it is hard to watch because it was from that company that had some sort of deal wherein they only showed a certain percentage of live footage (sometimes pixileated) and a certain from rehearsals and soundcheck. And that footage was often in slow-mo. Because I have the DVD player hooked up to the stereo I have stopped watching it and just play the music (which as I say is a little higher in the mix). And no it wasn't a vintage year. Swarb and Maart are on it, along with Chris While, Julie Matthews, Anna Ryder and Ian Anderson
