Received today. Haven't had chance to watch yet but I'm not impressed with the Deluxe UK packaging! Everytime you open it the spine creases and the discs sit on little sponge holders! Considering the amount of play this baby's gonna get the packaging is not gonna last long...

Think the booklet could have been better. At 11.30pm last night, after a bottle of wine and a dance round the living room, I couldn't get booklet to stay in the pocket of the package. 10am this morning - realised why it keeps falling out. It is not a sealed pocket - open at both sides

Watched Blu Ray last night. Absolutely Duran at the top of their game. And visually stunning edit and fantastic DTS mix Other than the Deluxe packaging, my only gripe is the lack of extras. Surely the documentary could have been longer. Less interviews and more behind the scenes footage would have been welcome too. A minor gripe considering this amazing film :-)

what was the venue size like and was it sold out?
from the planet earth vid I've seen the crowd doesn't seem anywhere near as frantic/interested as the live in london show...the majority looked a bit disinterested and like they are standing around waiting for a bus... I'm hoping that that the bluray shows a bit more oomph from the crowd and that the venue looks at least pretty big...

Got my Uk deluxe one and yes the packaging is rubbish and really the only thing deluxe about it, is it has all three things in it. Worth feedback to the band really - not up to their usual quality, surprised Nicholas allowed that through.

I was dancing away stage left, first tier (just as well I wasn't on film!) but most people around me just remained sitting.

No gripe with Amazon - it as arrived in perfect condition as always
