The Marillion Round Table

It was the one DVD I shouldn't watch, but did because I could

Kenmar, if h ever decides to leave (God forbid), you may have a new gig. 

I checked with Montreal Rick and he's going to get the special deal with the hotel towards the end of July.

E thanks but I'll only write lyrics, good news about the hotel.  So after seeing disc one my only complaint is that having so many camera angles is not always a good thing.  sometimes I want to see more than 2 seconds of an angle like when rothers is doing a solo.  overall though a truely inspiring performance.   kenmar

Maybe when the 2009 Montreal DVD is released later in the year it will be a bit more focussed. They used one boom and one hand-held from what I remember.

Eric, I thought that too, but then remembered that it was one boom on one side each night, but alternated sides one day to the next ( Maybe.....I think.....I'm getting old ) . 

All things considered, guys, would the Out of Season DVD be worthwhile buying for me? Or would you rather recommend an earlier Marillion DVD?

For the Hogarth period, buy out of season and after Somewhere in London The out of season is more exprensive because its a boxset, but for the technological aspect, its the best one.

Thanks, I've already got Recital, Loreley, From...Ipanama, Marbles on the Road, Brave Live 2002, This Strange Convention, I had been thinking of buying Somwhere in London, but hadn't got to it and then Out of Season was released, so... But, you recommend the latter the most? I think I will buy that one. Thanks again for your help; it's just, there was some talk about too much camera angles and different shots, etc., that's why I was asking.

A swap the band? I'm sorry, what does that mean?

E-Dub wrote: Fans can 'audition' and sit in with the band during one night of the convention. For example, there's a Youtube video of a guy replacing Rothery for "Kayleigh". On the Wish You Were Here DVD a fan from Australia replaces Ian on drums for "King". Also, a guy takes over for h on "Afraid Of Sunlight". Sorry, but I don't want to hear anybody play Marillion tunes BUT Marillion. E

Yes, I agree with you, I mean, it is quite funny and ehm family-esque to do such a thing, but I've paid a lot for the weekend and I surely wouldn't feel as good afterwards if something like that would have occured. How did you find out? Would it be for a whole night? or just for one song (that, I would not mind that much)? And if it is for a whole night, can't we express our discontend about it somewhere? I mean, if a lot of the fans would rather want to hear Marillion (and I guess they would) and the band would be made aware of this, I'm sure they wouldn't go through with it.

The camera angles shots are not too quick, like i have seen on other metal videos. Here, it gives you times to enjoy the shots. I hope there's not too much songs play by other musicians then Marillion.

You can't go wrong with either.
