The Road Apples promo video from 1991 - http://tracker.hipfans.com/torrents-details.php?id=127 - features some amazingly well shot rocking concert footage. Where are they from? This takes place before Road Apples is released.
In Cordelia, Gord has hair, he's got sideburns, a white t-shirt with a tie-dye like symbol in the middle. The venue is outside and is just after sunset.
In Three Pistols, they are inside, at a club, a lot of footage shot from audience level. Gord wears an untucked red long sleeve shirt that is soaked through.
Both songs are complete; there's a tasty snippet of New Orleans Is Sinking from another concert where Gord has sideburns and a suede vest.
This stuff was amazingly shot and edited, the sound is incredible, the performances are very strong. Is any of this circulating on boot DVD?
sources for live concerts used in MCA promo video?

This is sourced from my tape. I've had it for about ten years. I'm sending all my old archives to Scooby to have him dvd them...

I bought the actual MCA sealed promo tape from Ebay a few years back and gave it to Peter Padjen in 2003 to master to DVD. So for those who got Peter's copy, they got a good source tape.
I'm watching it now and it looks really good but the sound is kind of low. For those who are interested, I can either post a torrent of Peter's DVD or do up a DVD of my own (with a little sound boost) and torrent that.
I can make the DVD from the MCA master in under an hour and have it on the Tracker soon thereafter, so if anyone's interested, say so. *NOTE: This would be the only thing on the DVD (versus a grab bag DVD with many clips).

I think the Three Pistols footage is from the 1990-04-06_Halifax show at the Misty Moon. Iwas watching it yesterday and it seemed like the same footage as the MCA promo.
Can anybody confirm this is accurate?
thx,

I believe that is correct. I was watching the Misty Moon show not too long ago, and I think it's from the same show.ccollins515 wrote:I think the Three Pistols footage is from the 1990-04-06_Halifax show at the Misty Moon.

I would be very interested in a DVD version from an MCA master..I have a multi-generation VHS copy with very poor audio & shaky video.TLB wrote:I bought the actual MCA sealed promo tape from Ebay a few years back and gave it to Peter Padjen in 2003 to master to DVD.
