I am sitting in a hotel room in Tokyo on a business trip. The Saitama concert has just started, and I am watching. Damn, I wish I had a DVD-R.

They have just finished IORR and are starting LSTNT, and it is great. Keith is on fire!!!! Jesus, wow, wow, wow. Watching this, I just pray that he recovers.

Bet tonite's gonna be advertised as new DVD on some Jap.sites......

It's great - No commercials, pro shot, no cuts or overdubs, Nice, wide shots, clean mix. Loose performance, sloppy in spots (ONNYA, RFD), but what the hell ... that's the Stones. I love the fact that the whole band is in the frame, since the Arena shows use a smaller stage.

It's fantastic how they get Mick, Keith, Ronnie, Charlie and Daryl in a wide shot on Midnight Rambler. You guys have to see this -- The Japanese really know what they're doing.

I wonder if they'll play the whole show ?

So far, so good. They're doing Happy now, and it sounds great! Tumbling Dice was a bit of a mess.

I'll update. The B-Stage segment is absolutely fantastic. It's hard to tell how many cameras they used, but the did an amazing job.

Just talked to a friend who was trying to record it, and was not able to do so. I wonder if its been coded to prevent recording?

i'll take a messy Tumbling Dice over almost anything - it's one of the greatest rock songs ever written, after all.

is there any links?
To see this on the web

drbryant, you were lucky to watch it on TV. Midnight Rambler was part of the show. I guess it was the highlight of the show.
A Japanese friend of mine has recorded on DVD the TV show for me. I hope it will work. I am eager to receive it...

thank you - i'd love to, but what's your address?

Keith, be well - all the way, baby, all the way

yeah leeds 82...I need that hidden e-mail to beg this show off of you!

I would like to get it too Leeds 82. I was in Tokyo Dome and it was wonderful too!

Hey there Leeds82 .... I would also be interested in one!!

If it happens, would you please consider me in getting a copy. :-)

Thanks!!

This show is definitely worth owning -- it's the entire show uncut (2 hours and 5 minutes) from opening film to final bows, with no commercial interruptions. I have not seen so much interaction between band members on any video. They are clearly enjoying themselves. The B-Stage footage alone is worth it -- I have not seen any video that really captures the excitement of a B-Stage set the way this does. Keith is just great. He has a few questionable solos (ONNYA, SFTD), but he just smokes on the B-Stage. The mix is fine, except that Ronnie is somewhat low in the mix (could have been my one-speaker TV in my hotel room). He makes up for it with great slide on Happy, and by enthusiastically running around the B-Stage during his solo on Start Me Up.

Viewing this, it just occurred to me that over the years, I have enjoyed the boots of the Japan broadcasts much more than the officially released videos. You get the full show, without editing and overdubs. All the between-song patter, all the mistakes, etc. all make a show what it is. I suspect that if you own this show and Rio, the official DVD will be unnecessary.

Leeds82,

I'm in - I'd love a copy of this DVD!

I feel like a parasite.....but I'm really interested too, if you have the time.

>> Why not put it on RocksOffs <<

because not everyone has torrenting capability?
of course it would be brilliant to make it available both ways

Keith, be well - all the way, baby, all the way

It is very important for me to get a DVD from a Japan concert since I saw the 2nd day of the Tokyo Dome ones.

Please, don't forget about me!

I think we scared him off.... :-)
