yesterday i wanted to play with the dvd "ladies and gentleman", and then i heard that they didnt play the songs as usual but a half step up. so not in open g but open g# . why ? because most of the other concerts of this concert were played "normally", or is it because they filmed it !?

Yep. I've noticed that. It's the 4Reel version, innit? It sounds sharper than the standard pitch.

interesting - what system is your disk, PAL or NTSC?
someone told me recently that converting from one to the other entails a change in speed (and pitch) of something like 4%,
but i forget which is the faster one.
anyway, Gimme Shelter, i think it's more a question of recording speed than a change in the key they were actually playing in.

Could be. I was trying to play Bye Bye Johnnie a long and it didn't sound good in the key of C. It sounded much better in C#.

Cheers,
Wuudy

yes, its the 4reels version, but im very shure that the key is changed on each and every song. maybe mathijs could help ?

Coming here again...

It's not they played the songs on another key, anyway. The Ladies and Gentlemen soundtrack CD I have runs at the correct speed. It's only a recording issue, so the DVD sounds shaper.

One question: what does that :E stand for?? I assume it's a certain smiley thing, but I must admit I don't know which one...

Have some friday afternoon popcorn.

Do you know any teethless smiley?? It would be even more Keithian...

[There'll be no wedding today...]

he was just wearing it in his ear. :E
