Sounds great. I haven't seen any dates for screening in the UK, hopefully it won't be far behind.

I would expect a DVD at some point as well?

Yup, let's hope there'll be a DVD. I'm still hanging out for some footage from the Liverpool show...

Not even close. Just about 12-15 songs maybe? The run time was 2 hours, so with commercials, that's about 1.25 hours. They were not in order or anything like that. The side stories were very interesting and moving.

Can't wait to see it. If anybody hears about a UK / European airing, please SHOUT LOUDLY. Thanks.

Steve,

You're right my friend about freedom. Something we here in the US often take for granted. I knew that the Beatles music had, more or less, been banned in the old Soviet Union. I was amazed to see how many folks loved em there! Well, maybe not so amazed! Music, after all, is the universal language! BTW, did anybody notice that Putin didn't seem to 'get' the concert?
