ANNOUNCE: Tokyo 1979-04-25 DVD

What do you mean with "blurry" pictures ?

What about the footage of Dreamers Ball on the ANATO DVD? It looks like this show to me.

I guess it's completely filmed, because they show songs from the beginning, the middle and the end of the set. Still, it's just an assumption :)

BTW, I do like this version of Don't Stop Me Now. Freddie having troubles singing it and Roger helping him out.

What what what ? Where exactly is the footage (video clip disc or documentary disc, which part ...) ? I would like to check it.

I love it too, you can hear that the guy suffers and how he's happy when he manages to scream higher notes during the middle improvisation

Hmmm, is it just me or something is wrong with the files...? I can't play it via PowerDVD (open dvd files from HDD). Hmmm, Anybody?

I guess it's Dreamers Ball, because Roger is behind the small drumkit in the middle of the stage. It's the video clip disc. I'm going to check it out for you.

It could be Paris as well, here's one shot: http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/64/screensv7.png

I had some trouble with gaining a good screenshot, but this gives you a global image.

There's also another shot of Roger from the other side, minus Freddie and the part of John's bass.

EDIT: You can see these shots in the last bit of Good Company ;-)

EDIT2: Dammit, seems like printscreen doesn't work for this! It's a black screen now (at least here), so I'm going to try it once more in a different way!

Here are the new shots:

Wow, thanks a lot, I never noticed it ! It really looks like it comes from this concert. Bob, Smitty, what do you think ?

I can't remember this b&w footage. Which video you used for make this caps??

Well they made it b&w, because the whole Good Company video is like that ;-)

I used VLC media player to make snapshots (video disc of the ANATO DVD)

It's hard to tell where it's from. It really looks like Tokyo, because of the cameras' position and the close-ups. I can't remember Paris having these kind of close-ups.

Although it's still hard to tell. We had this discussion before, but can't remember what the outcome was.

Without a doubt it's from Tokyo. Thanks for the reminder about that!

But the reason for identifying it as Tokyo is simply comparing the clothing they're wearing. We can't use close-ups as the only reason, as there is multi-cam footage from Paris on The Champions and the Magic Years, with plenty of close-ups.

You're right about that, Bob. Been some time out of the Queen world, so I forgot about Paris having such close-ups as well ;-)

Do you think it was filmed completely?

MERCI BEAUCOUP

thanks

i have this version...http://img384.imageshack.us/img384/3421/19790424japan1qs5.jpg

it's a upgrade?

not realy... The difference is quite hard to notice. In some parts the new version (2GB) is less "blocky" than the previous one. If you watch both of them on TV, you will not (almost) see the difference. The sound is also quite similar, so if you have low speed Internet connection it is not worth to download (IMO).
