Vertigo 2005 is Coming Out on Blu-ray

[kennerado]

Hey guys,

I bought Oasis - Lord Don't Slow Me Down on Blu-ray and it had on the insert some music blu's coming out. The Vertigo 2005 cover is on there, too bad the show was average. At least we get a new U2 HD release.

They should release it on Blu-ray... but not Chicago show.
We want the FULL Milano show released.

Just what we need... another release from the Vertigo/Atomic Bomb era. Can the band move on from that already?

Hmm... they have two pro-shots they could release (Sao Paulo and Buenos Aires), a totally unreleased filmed show (one of the Croke Park nights), the rest of the Milano show, countless hours of leftover U23D footage, soundboard recordings of every show and rehearsal, and possibly more. Keep it coming.

what exactly did you see on the Oasis Blue Ray - was it really "Chicago"? not the U2 3D film?

to be fair... a reissue on a new format is a bit different than if they released a new vertigo concert on DVD.

if a new audio format came out tomorrow that had the audio quality of CD or FLAC but was as small in size as mp3, wouldn't you want U2 to put out all of their albums in this new, awesome format? of course you would.

Slane is the only one of those that could have possibly been recorded in HD.

like digize said - that's not possible (if you mean ZooTV Syndey) But what is possible: the Lovetown Sydney MTV Special - it was filmed in 35 mm. So that could be easily been transformed into a Blue Ray and I really would loved that - it has been so wonderful filmed.

I honestly don't see much difference between lossy and lossless audio. I think people get hung up on that too much...just enjoy the actual song thats playing instead of how it's being delivered.

Yeah I am all for getting material onto HD (because that is a noticable difference between standard def and high def to me) just because that will become the new standard for the next decade. I am just tired of seeing new Vertigo era material... I am kinda over it.

Here is a scan of the insert, see its the cover from the Chicago dvd:

Lets hope that at least they include progressive video on this one!!! All the interlaced DVDs they put out look like crap on HDTVs and computer screens!!!

 

[Chrisedge]

Nice, at least it will be more complete than the HD version already out.
