22 years ago today was the last Metro show

Ram27 · 12-02-2022, 10:35 AM

and still no footage

i'm listening to to sheila from that gig -- linda strawberry sings the last chorus and god she really fucks it up. just completely bland generic national-anthem-esque deluge

themadcaplaughs · 12-02-2022, 11:24 AM

I've always wondered if Billy has held out on releasing it because he knows a portion of his hardcore fanbase will completely check out from SP/WPC once it becomes available.

he doesnt like it because he cried at the end of it and james didnt (to anyones knowledge)

inkless · 01:03 PM

I'm not particularly waiting for the show's release because all the titles outside of the machina album are played in the machina style

Joey Goldberg · 12-02-2022, 12:10 PM

is that post supposed to make sense or should I just stop re-reading?

Honestly I think anyone with a PC could take this footage and, with one of those deepfake programs and ten minutes, make Billy not crying and James crying and screaming how he doesn't want to live any more while waving a gun around and Billy heroically tackling him and screaming that he loves him and D'arcy walking onstage and saying what a good person Billy is and what a bad person she is and Brian Wilson also walking onstage and saying Billy is way better than he ever was and he's getting back into bed forever because of this and God coming down and saying the exact same thing

Like, can one of your kids grow up just a little faster, Billy, to be old enough to use the internet and explain this shit to you

absof · 12-02-2022, 03:16 PM

It’s interesting (to me, at least) that this release has missed the golden age of DVD and at this stage BluRay might as well be over too.

I doubt he (currently) want to release it, but if he did he’d have to be shopping it to streaming services, surely? How else could he turn a profit on a 22 year old, 4 hour concert in 2022?

houseofglass11 · 12-02-2022, 03:18 PM

Imagine how things would be now if the band had stayed gone

The real SP 1988-2000 RIP - Forever in our Hearts.

absof · 12-02-2022, 03:18 PM

Maybe it’ll be released through Zuzu’s.

One track per DVD. Machine signed by Mikey B.

While we’re on this roller coaster can someone please just edit the girls out of the AUD recording?

Serious question - has anyone tried ‘remastering’ the AUD recordings?

houseofglass11 · 12-02-2022, 03:43 PM

Since most AUD sources are from one mic the track separation software just doesn’t work on them. It will separate the tracks as best it can but whatever offending noise will still be present on each track.

i did a matrix mix of shame from 12/02 that sounded pretty nice

Spaceboy88 · 12-02-2022, 03:51 PM

Maybe he'll give us the final show as part of the Zuzu's exclusive super deluxe edition of the Machina box set when it's released in 2055.

LaBelle · 12-02-2022, 03:53 PM

Billy will release it exclusively on laserdisc and vinyl in 2028

houseofglass11 · 12-02-2022, 04:34 PM

Having exclusive Zuzu’s vinyl only releases with the archival stuff recently made it clear that Corgan loves fucking with us. Having no lossless and no cd release is just plain stupid. At the very least a lossless download code should’ve been included with the vinyl. It’s not like that shit didn’t get ripped anyways.

Damn gotta spread

That spiraled out of hand so fast and so perfectly. Thank you for making me grin through the pain

topleybird · 12-02-2022, 06:54 PM

Happy to hear it, unless "the pain" was like a BDSM thing someone was doing to you at the time, in which case it's not cool to force me to participate in your kink

Isn't this still under Virgin? I honestly thought, at the time, this would be released by 2010. And, here we are 22 years later. I'd actually pay for this release.

This is kind of cool to see. My friend/flatmate won one of those but couldn't afford the flight to the US, so she gave it to someone on the oboard called ThruTheEyesOfLa*ren.

Hiya T,

Sorry I don’t remember you, tbh I was listening to Nelly and getting a lot of dick back in 2000.

Xoxo

T&T · 12-05-2024, 01:23 PM

By starlight I'll kiss you
And promise to be your one and only

I'll make you feel happy
And leave you to be lost in mine

And where will we go
And what will we do?
Soon said, I, will know

And are you just like me?
Dead eyes, dead eyes
Are you just like me?
Her eyes, her eyes
Were as vacant as the seas, yeah
Dead eyes, dead eyes
And are you just like me?

And all along
We knew we'd carry on
Just to belong

By starlight I know you
As lovely as a wish granted true

My life has been empty
My life has been untrue
And does she really know, who I really am?
And does she really know me at last

And are you just like me?
Dead eyes, dead eyes
Are you just like me?
Her eyes, her eyes
Were as vacant as the seas, yeah
Dead eyes, dead eyes
Are you just like me?
And are you just like me?
And are you just like me?
And are you just like me?
