At The Max was filmed in IMAX format and looked awesome seeing it in IMAX. Shine A Light was not that way and the IMAX experience wasn't to good.

Yeah, between the visuals and the sound, it was quasi-like being at a show. I also enjoyed the At The Max.

I also saw the Imax film at Bradford in the early 90's and was very impressed. The opening, where it follows the band on stage and you see the curtain open from their perspective was breathtaking on that screen, it actually felt like you were on stage with them. Fantastic. I keep hoping they will show it again but it never seems to come around anymore.

That's right Eddie. I used to play in the music jams at the jacobs well until about a year ago. It's not as good a pub as it was and hardly gets anyone in it these days which is a shame as it used to be a grewat little pub...wooden floors etc and a good start to an evening before going to see the bands at St Georges Hall or the university. No doubt you'll remember the Vaults Bar as well !

Wow - what awesome experiences you've had!Quote

Bound to be disappointing Cats unless you have an Imax home theater system. I of course would recommend the baddest ass 7.1 Home system you can afford.
Surround sound mixing is still in it's baby years and in the future, multiple speaker mixes will become a thing of real beauty and art.
Imagine in the middle of GRTEAT stones 7.1 mix , in the sweet spot or the middle of the mix. Each Stone panned to a different speaker around you. Insane! You are transported to being on the stage with them. Wanna hear more Keith, move over to his side, more Charlie, move back a little bit. The effect is overwhelming if done properly and in the right frame of mind. Yeah!
I first saw Star Wars in George Lucas's private screening theater called the Stag theater in Marin County CA. The guys were meticulous about tuning the surround effects in the mix and it changed me forever. Spoiled rotten I'd like to think. Hope the experience comes your way soon, IMAX is a good start. peace
