Huge dissappointment. I was expecting all three shows on dvd. We had to put up with their bullshit boom stands the whole weekend...I mean, they even asked for fans to send in videotape of their gorge experiences...traveling, camping, etc. This had the potential to be a sweet ass release. So weak.

Well...considering that for a week now I have been downloading a killer 8 CD compilation of the Gorge weekends over at Sharing the Groove (and I'm only at 51%), I will not be buying the commercial CD set.
I will buy the DVD, but I am dissapointed. Like others have said, this project was originally supposed to include the entire weekend....but I also seem to remember that a long time ago, DMB Management asked fans to send in copies of their own (fan made) video footage of things like the jouney to the Gorge, campground scenes...etc. etc., which I thought was an awesome idea....those integrated into the pro shot would have captured the whole Gorge experience which, sad to say, I have yet to incounter 1st hand.

I noticed the other day in the Trading Forum that Mr. Matty Boom put up a link that had all the DVDs available for DMB concerts, and I happened to notice that on that link, they have all 3 night of The Gorge, 2002. So now I'm confused, could someone enlighten me on what's going on. Cause if that's the case, I'll just B+P someone for all three nights of The Gorge 2002, but if I'm mistaken I'm still going to buy the actual released DVD/CD set in late June. I hope I'm not the only one that notcied this
Those are fan made DVD's...which are shot primarily from one angle....and the quality can vary. Personally, I love fan shot shows because it captures the experience, but you can't beat the quality of pro-shot......although some of the rapid changing of camera angles can get anoying sometimes.

Yeah Danny, I knew that the quality can vary with fan DVDs, but since they do have the entire 3 night concert of The Gorge on DVDs that fans made, I wouldn't mind seeing the entire 3 night concerts and then compare with the actual release that DMB. And I know that it will be high quality video, but like I said, wouldn't mind seeing the entire thing on DVD. So when I get money, I may have to hunt some of you down to try and B+P the fan DVD settaylordb wrote:Chris,2StepGranny wrote:Ok, after further research...

because we were under the impression that they would release DVDs of all 3 nights, like they said they were going to originally, in addition to fan-submitted material and documentaries.DMBFan63 wrote:why does this suck?

sorry, i misspoke. when they asked for fans to submit their own footage, they implied they were making a large DVD set, which is what I should have said.winglet82 wrote:I don't remember them ever announcing a 3 DVD set. I don't remember the band ever announcing even a 3 CD set until a few days ago. I remember a lot of speculation and "inside sources" saying a 3 DVD set though.
