Throwing Copper 20th Anniversary CD / DVD Options

[Hoodstock]

CD / DVD of the Throwing Copper show on February 11th, 2014 is available.

On February 11th, 2014, I had one of the best concert experiences of my life thanks to you…my amazing fans. I performed Throwing Copper (front-to-back) in front of a sold-out Enmore Theatre in Sydney, Australia. I think back on it and still get chills.

I had a premonition that Sydney was going to be a special night, and thanks to the folks at Moshcam and Pledge Music, we were able to put together a very talented team of filmmakers to capture the concert, the fans, the energy and the overall experience in such a way that you will feel like you are there when you see it!

I am so excited to share this incredible concert and to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Throwing Copper with you through the CD/DVD. I send my heartfelt thanks to you all for your support in making this project become a reality with your pledge.

Mine copies of the CD and DVD already arrived. Good collectors items! and more importantly it's a good concert. i think Ed shows he still has the energie to rock out on this DVD. But i already knew that as i saw him at Pinkpop. Quite happy with it. Worth the money.

I received my copy of the CD and DVD today.

It's already been mentioned on the Pledgemusic.com comments section, but this DVD has no track chapters. Whoever was responsible for authoring this has no idea of what is expected from a DVD. Does it really take much more effort to create a menu with individual chapter points for each song on the disc? Even if they didn't want to spend the extra time creating a nice looking menu, it literally takes 5 minutes to throw in chapter points. They already had added a chapter point for the encore so why stop there?

Secondly, the picture quality is very average. Who watches DVD these days? When was the last time you even bought a DVD? Anyway, this could have been less of an issue if a dual layered disc was used instead of cramming 110 minutes onto a DVD5. The video bitrate averages at 3900kbps and the audio is AC-3 at 256kbps.

Re: the performance. I've been listening to audio of the show for the past couple of months and it's pretty good. No complaints about that. In my opinion Ed did an excellent job at performing Throwing Copper and I enjoyed the concert and the recording.

You're kidding! I didn't expect much in terms of the quality of this product but this is pretty laughable. Did the 'digital download' version of the DVD ever eventuate? Is it a 50mb .rm file?

FLAC and MP3 downloads were made available for the audio part of the show, but no downloads for the video part.
