Sorry – shame on me – I had to choose the option starting with “Yes…” in the vote which I only did because I wanted to emphasize that I agree 100% with Per’s opinion: “It’s splendid to mix up live performances w/ funny stuff from backstage + studio + hotels + airports + private areas.” Okay, 2 B honest, I would never fall asleep watching a DVD that shows only live footage (and I never fell asleep at any of their concerts as well), but anyway a mix of live and backstage stuff was always and will always be way more interesting, amazing, breathtaking, in one word: awesome! On the other hand if there was at least a realistic chance to be able to buy a live DVD (the sooner the better) I wouldn’t complain and take everything: 100% live or not

I posted this on Facebook and thought I’d re-post it here:

Why bother with just 60-70 mins. Why not just add the rest of the concert so we can have the full thing. It’s what we all want, a complete record of probably the most memorable/special concert all of us have ever been too. Can’t you do that for the fans? The documentary will be awesome (I can’t wait for that) but the live DVD in full will mean even more to so many of us. Ideally, I’d like a two disc release with the concert on one and the doco on the other. That why the concert wont be interrupted with interviews/bts stuff (like GoE was). If its a matter of cost vs return, I’m sure that there are enough of us fans who’d buy it and then some, look how many people came to see you in Australia, I’m sure a heap of those people would like a momento…….Hopefully this decision is not set in stone.

Fully agree with Judith: Not we deserve it – Roxette deserves it!

I think a DVD/BD with a. concert b. tour documentation with live songs in between would suit everyone.

A live concert on BLU RAY, or all of the tours on HD Blu RAy would be awesome, other artists release them, and Roxette have music video DVDs, so where is the live releases!

An PLEASE ON BLU RAY NOT JUST DVD! DVD SUX, HD ALL THE WAY!

if both stuff is on the DVD, you can choose what to watch

I am on Per’s side this time. I only sit in front of the TV to watch a whole concert on DVD right after purchase. I hardly watch the whole thing again – I prefer jumping to one favourite to another. But I like the idea of a road-movie mixed with some live stuff, that’s a lot more interesting. I widely agree with the first post by Jolentis…

I’ll take it a step further — for me, the non-stop, daily Facebook/Twitter videos, comments and interview links have been a living, breathing documentary of the tour and Roxette rebirth in general. I guess I’m wondering what else is there left to say?

Don’t get me wrong — I’m thrilled to buy ANYTHING P&M&Co decide to release — but I truly never have understood, and suppose I never will understand, the stubborn refusal to record a proper live concert for posterity. ESPECIALLY with this band, when so many of the songs have evolved so much from their original productions.

Roxette already has a number of documentaries, I want to see decent live show.

By: Judith

Judith — Tue, 24 Apr 2012 18:48:52 +0000

actually, I am not even talking about “fans deserving it”, I am thankful for all the stuff that has happened the past years.
I think Roxette deserves it. Simple as that.

Done with the voting, it’s fixed. Thanks.

C’mon guys!, there are full concerts available on DVD/BR from all kind of other artists! Madonna has them. U2 has them. Britney Spears has them, the list is endless!. Do their fans think they are boring??? mmm, dissapointed here :/

I mean, how do I vote here? Voting buttons are greyed out!

it’s of course a bit of humour – I think a bit of fun doesn’t hurt anybody. Pressure? I doubt we change Per’s/their minds anyway.. unfortunately

I personally think it would be a big missed chance. Roxette rocks live and a docu with parts of a concert is simply not going to show what this great band is able to do live.

I don’t know what is boring about watching a full live DVD; I have seen GT and Marie live stuff many times, and the bootlegs that are available online too.. and it’s for the memory – to be able to look back as well.

Of course we deserve a DVD. It is time Roxette start giving some credit to their fans, at least in Argentina. We seem to be forgotten in the last wagon of the train.
