This is the best deal i could find for this DVD. And they deliver to the U.K. for 8.25 euros.

The DVD is a Region 2 version of the Australian disc that came out last year, but this one has two versions of the concert plus a documentary and a CD of concert.

Sorry link didn't work you'll have to run a search under 'titulo'. For 'Escaped Maniacs'.

It's a great concert by the way once you get used to the camera
moves, but it's not as bad as the 'Nova Sad Serbia' DVD that just gives me a headache.

?!?!

Hope this link works and makes matters a bit more clearer.

Yeah, thats a lot better now. Thanks for the link. I've never heard of it before.

Thanks for the link. It looks great.
You mention the camera moves - what's the deal with this? Is it a professionally filmed DVD? Sounds like it from the blurb, but what does it actually loook like?
Cheers,

yeah it's professionally filmed it looks really good, up close and personal. It's just got all those quick cuts, slow motion etc. the director trying to be clever but you get used to it.i think it must be the non director's cut, because the crowd are not shown just the band. also the sound is really good, it was filmed a couple of weeks before the 'don't look back' gig.The region 4 DVD has a great booklet with a article from The Barman.

Nigel

Thanks for all the info. Must try to track it down.
Cheers,

It runs for a staggering 334 minutes!!
Here's the Amazon blurb -

Product Description
Legendary band Iggy and the Stooges are captured live at Belguims Lokerse festival in an stunning performance during 2005 European tour. The bands performance combined the raw vigour of youthful song writing and the out of the world techniques of veteran musicians. All members of the original line appeared - the Asheton Brothers, Dave Alexander and of course the legendary Iggy Pop. The DVD contains the live concert, interviews with Ron & Scott Asheton, Iggy Pop, Esther Friedman plus a sixty minute Iggy Retrospective. The package also contains a CD of this outstanding performance.

Synopsis
Nearly 30 years after splitting up in 1974, Iggy Pop reunited with his original band, The Stooges, to record some new material and tour. ESCAPED MANIACS features the crazed rockers' show at Europe's Lokerse Festival in August 2005, where they performed blistering versions of nearly all the great tracks from the first two Stooges' albums as well as new songs, 'Skull Ring' and 'Dead Rock Star'.

So Amazon claim that Dave Alexander is the band? That's clever, seeing as he's been dead for over 30 years...

Cheers,

Richard

Damn! Dave can still play, 32-1/2 years dead??

Hope I can do that someday...

Hmmm. Isn't the Lokerse festival already on DVD?!?!

Nope. My computer will play anything. But my home DVD is a touchy sonuvabitch.

www.play.com has it for £11.99 including uk delivery.

£11.99 inc delivery? I'm off to play.com then. That's a real bargain.
