Howdy, like many of you guys I pre-ordered the DOTR DVD and was disappointed as hell to discover that it had a fault and worked on neither DVD player in my house (and my main player isn't a cheap one, its a What Hi-Fi 5 star award winning Pionneer machine). I returned my DVD and got my money back anticipating Sanctuary would quickly realize their problem and issue a new batch of discs.

So after hearing nothing officially for over two months, does anyone know if Sanctuary have bothered to fix the faults, or I am destined to not own a working copy of this DVD due to their corner cutting ways?

To be honest, the DOTR DVD is one of several factors that are rapidly undermining my once blind devotion to Maiden. The ridiculous price for their new tickets (nearly £80 for two tickets for Sheffield, I usually go to a few shows on each tour, but not at this price), shutting down the official BB, the incredibly poor quality of the fan club magazines and customer service (I don;t bother anymore after the last year I subscribed [2004] I didn't recieve my gift or two of the magazines) have all contributed as well. I love Maiden's music and I love the band, but I am generally getting the impression that they are in it for the money these days.

So rant over, back to my original question, has anyone who bought an orgiinal DOTR DVD who had problems subsequently bought anopther that has been okay? And does anyone know if there is a 'new batch' that will actually work as intended?
 
I don't think there's anything offical anywhere yet.

If you really want to see it while they get their asses in order and fix the dvd, it's on a certain popular search engines video site.

Well, Allegedly....

I have the same question as you. I am waiting for someone to say.: "All DOTR DVD's in all shops over the world (or at least in my country) have no errors anymore. All wrong copies are replaced."

Since we still get silence as an answer, I refuse to buy it for the 2nd time. Like you, I also returned my copy, after seeing the shitty image errors.
 
Look at the damn thing!

It clearly says "Edward & Son" Under.. and you can just see the top of the T

Since we're on the subject, has anyone noticed that it says Edwards Son Under on the the wagon Eddie is riding? What does that mean? I searched the Commentary and couldn't find anything.

Will you please stop displaying the extent of your stupidity for the whole board to see? This is at least the sixth post I notice where your lack of mental abilities is so painfully obvious!

If you don't get something like a simple joke or reference, you're better off keeping quiet about it. Better say nothing and look like an idiot than open your mouth and leave no doubt about it!

You have the right to be an idiot if you can't help it. I would just prefer not to see as much stupidity on this board as I witness in real life. And yes, I also tell people what I think of them in real life.

Anyway, about the Death On The Road cover picture, I'm surprised that you haven't asked yet what "undert" means. Or is it your next question? ::
 
I just got fed up with your repeated ... errr... silly?... questions.

The fact that you're not very bright is not so much a problem as you being apparently proud of this fact (as well as totally unable to recognise your own...errr.. mental limitations?).

Maybe I should simply delete your next inane question(s) to spare you the laughter of the other board members... ::
 
No hard feelings at all. Here's even a little present for you. Happy reading, and please no questions about it, just know that it was the 2000 Ig Nobel Prize Winner for psychology.

Back on topic:

I got an e-mail two weeks ago from a mailing list on whatrecords.com, or it could be that I sent an e-mail myself asking about the troubles with the DVD, I can't remember really. Maybe it can answer some of your questions numberofthegraz.

Hi there Herman Otterlei,

Sorry for the delay in updating but needed to be sure of the facts.

As you probably have read the Fault on the Maiden DVD Stereo Disc has now been located and the Tech Heads are half way to solving the problem. (See Iron Maiden website for more info)

The new Stereo Disc will be rigourously tested at all stages. This is because of all the effects the lads use in the show produces a vast ammount of information that needs to digitalised.

After all the testing the replacement Stereo Disc will be available and I will contact you individually to confirm dispatch.

Thank you for your paitence.

The surround sound disc is not faulty.

Speak soon and keep an eye on the Maiden site as more Tour Dates will be confirmed soon. Might see you at a gig? and you can give me an ear bending.

UP THE IRONS!!!!!
