Okay, so I bought the PPV. Truth be told, I really wasn't into it for various reasons, but I videotaped it. I probably watched most of it while it was on.

You had your typical DM antics:

--Martin Gore wearing some ridiculous outfit.
--Dave Gahan getting half-naked and spinning around with the mic stand.
--Andy Fletcher acting like he's actually doing something with those keyboards.
--The fans waving their hands back and forth during "Never Let Me Down Again."

You had a few surprises, mainly Martin playing "It Doesn't Matter Two" and "Home," and hamming it up a bit with the Paris crowd. After DM played "Waiting for the Night," the crowd kept doing the chant at the end...even after the band played other songs.

As far as DVD stuffs, I would say that Warner Bros. will eventually put all the DM stuff on DVD. Mute is slowly converting their videos to DVD, although since those are coming out of Europe, I would imagine that that wouldn't help American fans much. (Much like the fact that most of their videos are in PAL format as opposed to NTSC.)

Now then, in the CD player...

Linkin Park--Hybrid Theory

Faith No More--King for a Day, Fool for a Lifetime

Tool--Lateralus

Sugar Ray--Floored (yep, back in the day when Sugar Ray played songs that didn't sound like a rework of "Fly")

Jamiroquai--Synkronized and A Funk Odyssey (I can't stress enough how great both these CDs are)

Fishbone--Give a Monkey a Brain...
