The more I think of the possible Tokyo '95 release, the less sense it makes to me. Sounds about the least exciting Stones product one can imagine. It is going to be a damn low profile product if anything. I mean, just another modern day Stones stadium gig footage the world has been offered numerous times already, the shops still being full of them. I don't think the two decades has given it any historical value. Quite the contary - the DVDs released after/during the tours have some urgency/souvenir value, but is there really something special to remember from an ordinary VOODOO LOUNGE show, decades later? That would make it unique, different, or something like that? I don't hear much applauds here at IORR - among the hardcore fan base - so how it could possibly excite anyone outside the devoted circles? Could any journalist/reviewer even notice its existence, no matter even to say anything of it? "Yeah, seemingly the Stones offered the same show, the same performers, the same songs, back then as they do now. Not actually being any better, but looked a bit younger, if that means anything"...
I just don't get it. Who the hell in this world is going to buy this product??!! Who actually needs that? Or do they really have started thinking that there are so many people in this world who might have nostalgic feelings that 'oh yeah, that was my first Rolling Stones tour, great to have souvenir of that now'. Well, it actually was my first, but count me out...

Another explanation for Tokyo is it's done and ready. It's been released before on laserdisc, so there's no need for editing or stuff like that. You just have to take it from the vaults and prepare it for the DVD/BR format.
If they decide to put the Paradiso gigs out, there might be some editing and mixing to be done...

Maybe as 20th anniversary (as At The Max) in 2015 they could release Tokyo 95 in Bluray...
Hope in 2017 they release Bridges To Babylon in St. Louis in Bluray!!! (this also were released in Laser Disc year ago)

I thought from the vault was unreleased stuff. Japan was officially released

oh no no we donĀ“t need Tokyo 1995,specially not the march 12th...
We do need something from the 1994 / 1995 tour, though...
Without knowing anything about that particular (Tokyo) show: I'm sure there's better alternatives -
but still: I'd welcome anything from that tour as an official release in DVD / Blu Ray format.

I was at the PPV in Miami and the guests really dragged that show down....the Stones, however, were very good that evening.

Yes...I recall they sang Angie, Sweet Virginia and and one more from the "B" stage which was really to my right and not centered as it was in future tours.

Dead Flowers.
That was a great tour although it took them some time to get the momentum rolling as they had not played since the end of SW/Urban Jungle tours. It was the beginning of virtually non stop touring until the long break from 07-12. I was 3rd row and it was an incredible stage. The unique thing was how they had such a diverse set list and broke into Satisfaction less than 1/2 way through the show. VL remains , imo, the best "modern tour".Quote
