But 'Space of Freedom' became 'Solidarnosc Live' in the DVD process

Yes for instance, I was sure China wasn't the only concert with differences between the actual show and the DVD.

Well, what do you know...
I don't know what to say about the latest news...a charity gala??
We have plenty of these in Sweden too which of course is good.
"Who is Jean Michel Jarre? -Oh, he's that UNESCO dude playing some kind of water music."

I personally want even more information than this, if you know what I mean...right know I'm just confused.

[Big time]

I really don´t hope the dvd title is gonna be "Water for life"!!?

I have nothing against the idea behind it, a great idea, but a dvd title in that name sounds to me a bit "sugar´ish" to me...

That could be a title of a Mike Oldfield show or Kitaro.... But not Jean-michel....

[Kanta]

Water for Life sounds like a sale gimmick that a bottled water company would use for their sales of the product in advertisement. In fact it is a good idea to give this name to a brand of bottled water!!

Let's not talk about a dvd release- nothing has been officially said about this...

[Robi]

Yes, some neat details would be neat

[Christophe]

Yes, some neat details would be neat

Indeed!

Greetzzz...

[Jarp2600]

But nothing is officially clear about it. But I hope there will be a real HD-quality DVD.

[Robi]

I wait for Merzouga-version of tracks!

I get what you mean and I agree.

No we don't know about a DVD, but is it illegal to talk about it then?

[GeeJee]

Of course not. But acting as if there will be a DVD release may be confusing for other users who have not followed the entire thread and also visitors may be confused and assume there will actually be a DVD release. We don't want rumours to start here, do we?

Yes and that is ofcourse understandable

[GioVi]

Are we joking??

Now we can't talk about anything else which is REAL and CONFIRMED...that's sooo funny!

Come on...take it easy.

Hey... haha... don't get me wrong... if you want to discuss concert pictures being printed on toilet paper, go go go, I won't stop you

But some people were referring to a DVD-release as if it was actually confirmed. And that may appear confusing to others don't you think?

[SHARPBLUE]

It might not happen at all yet, why even bother to speculate about DVD releases when the concert aint happened.

This show doesnt seem to me to be a big deal, I hope something spectacular happens but I don't think it will, I feel the creativity has gone musically and visually, or maybe I am 38 on Dec 4th and I am too old for this anymore, but I am getting bored of JMJ. I already don't watch the last two live shows anymore, Just let this thing happen and die the usual death these shows do - I know I am not the only one who puts on a Jarre concert DVD and feels just a likkle bit 'let down' and I can take this back to as early as Docklands for me, and I was there.

I remember showing Houston to a friend called Mike Vince back in 1986, I will always remember him saying - yeah - now do something new and original, that hurt me at the time, but now I know what he means, 20 years on and the format is still the same.

Just recently I saw the War of the Worlds live, and it knocked spots off anything I have seen by anyone else, live or on DVD - If Jeff Wayne's lot can do it so should Monsieur Jarre - so how about it Jean Michel, I still love you but I am wavering.

GeeJee - this is only an opinion and I mean not too offend. Plus I think there are too many younger people here to understand what I mean.

I still loves you all though.
