  3. It was a good version. But they changed Larry's drumming for the ending by the time they played it for the European leg of e&I tour. Which I thought worked a lot better.

    A live release of Wild Horses has happened two years in a row. When it rains it pours.
  5. Maybe a hat trick with the AB 30 boxset live show
  6. Good grief, I hope so. I’ve been waiting for nearly three decades (!) for a proper 1992 show release!!

It would certainly save them $$ to do a stream and not release a physical copy. Maybe keep it around for 30-60 days.
    if i understand things correctly there isn't an Apollo concert video. They had a couple of stationary cameras set up in the balconies, which caught some footage which we have seen on YouTube. But it wasn't a full filming like the show from Berlin which had way more angles and way more cameras. This wasn't planned for a video release, and was never filmed like a show they would release on video. Only a handful of shows ever are with all the extra cameras, etc. On the 2018 tour they filmed Washington DC, Manchester, Berlin, and some footage in Dublin. In 2017 they did Amsterdam, San Diego, Mexico City and a handful of shows in South America...

    The Apollo project was filmed with multiple 360-degree cameras...there were two on stage and a few scattered throughout the theatre but the footage was very shaky due to the crowd bouncing...that technology requires a camera to be stationary to allow a viewer to move around in a space. Even had it worked it would probably have been an online video via some VR experience...not a traditional DVD. But I don't think it worked out for them. Not sure that the footage gathered there would help them with a home video style release.
