Love it!    Can't wait!

Please include a 5.1 mix.

Doesn't look like a Blu-Ray is in the making... And if they do a 5.1 mix, i doubt it would be a success... On top of that, here's another release where you have to buy the whole package if you want only the audio or the video.

Don't mind me, Rdtprog, I'm just a bit of a Bluray snob these days!

I just think when effort is spent on a good bluray release, it REALLY impresses. I bought the last Transatlantic bluray `KaLIVEoscope', and despite the concert not being completely exciting, it was visually an amazing release. The colours were so vibrant, the camerawork top-notch and the audio first-rate as well.

I would love to see a Glass Hammer released done the same way! I'd happily do a IndieGoGo/Kickstarter-esque pre-order if it meant fronting up the cash beforehand for a nice Bluray!

I am a Blu-Ray snob for at least 5 years! Yes, Kalivesoscope is a real treat, next Blu-Ray release (2BR) of  Prog Rock music is Neal Morse (August 21) with again a lot of material.

Maybe the audio/video quality of the footage is not good enough for Bluray? Ermm

I did occur to me, Sam, that they may not have the budget behind them like Transatlantic?

But I would have thought that since they've had a much bigger profile in the Prog community since the Yes association, theit status would be better than ever?

Apart from that, there still seems to be some hesitation with people wanting to upgrade to Blurays. I think it's tragic, it only took one amazing bluray and I haven't looked back since! Who wouldn't want to enjoy something in the best presentation possible, for a few dollars more?

Transatlantic is on another level... even if I can't seem to enjoy their music Confused

Probably many people didn't associate "the other Jon" with Glass Hammer Tongue

For us it makes sense upgrading, but most people don't seem to care about quality... the same ones that listen to low quality MP3's Ermm

2 of my favourite prog DVD's are from Glass Hammer (Live at Belmont and Lex Live) so I am looking forward to this Blu Ray or no.Smile

Yeah, despite my Blu Ray-snobbery, Richard, I'm excited for this as well!

How have you found their most recent album `The Breaking of the World'?

I like it more than the wishy washy Ode To Echo. I think it will be a grower much like TIS wasSmile
