random post of Queen stuff I still need to buy/preorder

this is all within the next few months, so on fire at the bowl doesn't count...sorry if this is boring but you're all welcome to join in...i think maybe listing the stuff makes me feel better or something


Jewels DVD
Final Live Japan DVD
Karaoke Hits DVD

All the japanese mini-LP remasters Flash-Innuendo (since i'm limited on money I really only NEED the 81-91 ones to hear the remastered sound since I already have the Crown Jewels box, I know the japanese ones are much better in quality design wise, but i'm trying to be economic!...okay maybe I can skip Flash) ;-)

new US greatest hits

We Will Rock You vegas ticket

platinum collection box (yes I still don't have this)

new copies of: Live Magic, Queen Symphony (the older on from 92), Greatest Hits (i wore these out as a young-en I realized I need new ones....)

bootlegs spree! 5 for price of 4!: royal rarietes vol.2, complete BBC sessions, dundee '75, RT-Nagoya '94, copenhagen '78,god i hate to love that site...

in reality..prolly only gonna get about 2 of those things inbetween now and the time "on fire at the bowl" comes out

You remind me of me. I started buying the card sleeves in reverse order because I had Crown Jewels. Only three more to go: 1, II and SHA and maybe long down the road, the 2nd version of MIH though the blue cover is the inside gatefold of the orange one anyway, so it seems silly to buy both.

I still need The Game & Flash Gordon - Hollywood versions, to complete that collection. And replacement copies of Hollywood's Innuendo & MIH cuz they're getting rather old.

Need to get 'The Eye' sometime if I get lucky.

Looking to find 'Becoming Queen' DVD in stock somewhere. Just got 'Magic Moments' the other day and enjoyed it a lot.

Got the Karaoke Hits DVD in the process of shipping right now, so that'll be here soon. Not getting the CD version since it's copy protected and I have the original.

And of course I'll get Greatest Hits: We Will Rock You soon as it comes out and the same for On Fire.

And a few CD singles I'd like to have for unique b-sides but that's all I think :)

Apparently it is

Crown Jewels DVD
Final Live Japan DVD
Karaoke Hits DVD

I think you mean "Jewels"?
I hope you have a region free DVD player -- these are Japan-only releases and are Region 2. Karaoke Hits will be released on 20 July and you can preorder at www.cdjapan.co.jp.
(waiting on the Karaoke Hits!!)

"Looking to find 'Becoming Queen' DVD in stock somewhere. Just got 'Magic Moments' the other day and enjoyed it a lot."

Tower Records has both in open stock. I liked Becoming Queen a lot better than Magic Moments. The annoying background music drowns out the people being interviewed and is quite distracting!
(There are a few segments that are in Becoming Queen too.)

Wow, I think you should all get on Ebay and soon!

Is something exciting on there that I haven't seen??

nope, doubt it.

yeah you're right, I edited the post ;)

yeah once I heard those release were strictly limited to Japan I region-hacked my DVD player in minutes, although I still don't have of them yet!!

if anyone needs help making their DVD player region free try www.videohelp.com

Strike Hollywood's 'The Game' from my list. Just got it with my Best Buy gift card.

For my listening copy, I added a cleaned-up vinyl version (which sounds fab!) plus the instrumental of Annie Crummer's AOBTD which is awesome I must say. 2 full versions of 'The Game' plus two bonus tracks, all on one CD. One advantage to a 35 minute album :-P

No luck with 'Becoming Queen' though.

I've got a region free, PAL-converting DVD player so no discs have been a problem yet, except anamorphic PAL discs display a little funny but I've hacked my TV to be able to quickly adjust picture size :-P

You know what's an awesome DVD? The Game DVD-Audio. As well as ANATO DVD-A, those are both amazing.

Hey DF, if you want, I can burn you copies of those DVD-A's cheap each - only catch is, I can only copy the DVD-V portion, which has the PCM and DTS 96/24 tracks, as I don't know how to rip DVD-A portions :(
(And even if I was able to burn both portions, I'd need a dual-layer DVD burner, so that's another reason I can only burn the PCM and DTS DVD-V portions, just so ya know)

You're sweet to offer, but I'll buy those eventually.. I just need a stand-alone DTS decoder, or maybe a DVD drive so I can at least extract the channels. I'm not in any hurry really, but thanks :)

Try Amazon.com for "Becoming Queen" DVD Angel of the Morning.

I was originally ordering it from there, along with Pat Benatar's 'Choice Cuts', and they were both available for next day shipping which sounded intriguing so I went for it.. then when I got to check-out it said 'Becoming Queen' was no longer guaranteed for next day, but there was the 'people also bought' thing with Magic Moments, which I thought was UK only.. so I replaced it with that.

But yeah, I could get it there.. I was just hoping to find it in-store locally :)
