A DVD from world tour?

Post by alibaba »

Apologies if this question has already been asked but I couldn't find it on any of the threads. I was wondering if there are any indications that there will be a DVD from the world tour? It would be fantastic to have a permanent record from one of the gigs.
Obviously one of the Dublin shows would be the best but I'd be happy with any one!!

I was really gutted that I couldn't get tickets for Manchester, having spent hours on the phone trying to get through, and then I thought at least I might be able to watch him on the BBC coverage of Glastonbury. I sat through hours and hours and hours of it, only to discover this morning that LC has decided not to allow tv coverage during his tour. I have wanted all my life to see him and never managed to - please, sombody, tell me there will be a DVD of some sort. I can't bear to think there will be no record of this tour, I have read all the reviews with a mixture of joy and sick envy. I don't understand why there was no film made of the concerts that formed the basis of the Live in Concert album which is so fantastic - there just has to be one this time!! Any info would be hugely appreciated.

A DVD would be a bonus, anyone who seen him live would buy one and those that could not make it would also buy. Please can Leonard's management release a DVD from any of the venues?

I really hope there will be one and even some live tracks on a new cd if not a full live album. It would bring back great memories :)

This is surely a certainty! I thought it was the reason that Leonard's management wouldn't allow filming at Glastonbury - which was totally mad of course, because it would have added hordes of new fans to the existing thousands who will buy the DVD anyway!

All good things, John E
