The money hasn't left my account yet

What's UP with Amazon? They've had a whole DAY to process my order and have done nothing!

Hey,
is it not faster to get it the old fashioned way. Hard cash and a cash register???

Would be - but the shops are 15 miles THAT way -> and I have no car

.

Got bored of waiting for amazon - figured I'd save myself two quid and go with play!

Awesome, just awesome!

I was into the third song when the coffin dodgers from next door shouted across the back garden fence for me to turn it down as they were going to bed!
I told them I'd been waiting 13 years for this DVD, but that didn't wash so I was forced to listen to it through headphones, which still made it thoroughly enjoyable.
The only thing that was a distraction was the animations that were playing behind Phil & Paul were bled over the main footage, but by the latter songs in the DVD, this had all but disappeared.
Highlights for me are Impact, TGWTSIHH, and of course, Chime.
If you use i-tunes to convert the cd to mp3, just watch the id tags on 2 tracks as they come up as Impact (The World is Burning), and The Girl With The Sun in Her Hair!

Tip - Watch it in the dark and the lights are trip-tastic!

All I need now is a DVD copy of the MTV gig from Ocean in 2001 and the brilliant MTV studio set in 1994? (Hint!!!)

Chime

Matt, that sucks

It's also weird because the product page is showing availability.

I told my sister to order either the DVD or Paul's album from Amazon UK for my birthday - I don't know which she ordered, but that was at the end of May and told me the other day that her order was delayed until the 16th. So yes, definitely, boooooo Amazon.

I think this might've been the reason mine didn't get dispatched from Amazon when I ordered it, too.

I ordered it from Play yesterday - and I haven't got confirmation for THAT yet either.

Looks like a long wait afoot.

EDIT: Also looks like there's either a lot of unfair treatment or false advertising going down from the amazon camp :- their item description quite boldly and happily states: "Get it by Thursday, Jun 14, if you order in the next 18 hours and 36 minutes."

I ordered mine last Thursday from cdzone.uk through amazon so hopefully I will recieve it sometime this week. I was sure not to order directly from amazon because their expected ship date is not until 5 to 8 weeks! This is the US amazon i am referring to but still...

and is the sound quality really that bad?

You were doing your fair share of throwing shapes too...

YAY!!! Finally got my copy this morning!!!

Loving the DVD, especially the 1995 section. Think it's the best directed section. Best combination of crowd footage, the background projections and orbital on stage without it looking boring or shit, (like some of the other years).

Can't wait to hear it over my mates massive home theatre system at the weekend.
