Hi,
What exactly is this 3 dvd set ?
Thanx |
|
Gazza |
its the best documentary ever made on the greatest band in the world
Made for Arte TV (france/germany) by the excellent Austrian Stones documentary filmmakers Rossacher and Dolezal and broadcast only in those countries in July 2002 to commemorate the Stones' 40th anniversary
It was never broadcast anywhere else, but this is an English language version (as the original broadcast had German or French voiceovers)
Think of it as an updated version of "25 x 5" (it uses some of the same footage) only better. |

Yeah, you right, gazza, itr's really the best doc of the Stones, I have a copy in a really strange language, maybe sweden, or dutch, but the images talk the universal sound , the rolling of the Stones. |

Is this the one that features Sonesdoug & his house? If so, it was quite well done. |
|
Gazza |
yes
Doug was sent an English language copy of it from the film makers, so I'd imagine thats where the English version comes from |
|
glencar |
I have an English language copy of that one. Very good indeed. Let me know if you want a copy for when I get to London, if yours isn't in English. |
|
Gazza |
I have an English language copy on DVD (although I taped the original French broadcast)
Thanks all the same. |

But, does the one available through Rocks Off tracker is actually the English version?
TIA |

No. It was only broadcast on the joint French-German satellite ARTE on 14/7/02.
The version on the tracker is the English language version, which was never actually broadcast
Strongly recommend it. Its a great 3-hour odyssey through the first 40 years of the band's career.

I've said it before, but the opening montage of 'Jumpin Jack Flash' (following a hilarious 'intro' taken from one of denis leary's stand-up shows) is one of the greatest and most hypnotic bits of film of the band I've ever seen. It would convert even the Pope into a Stones fan.

Fucking racist. I bet you wear loud checked pants too. And look who's standing by you jerks in Iraq! Hell, who was with ya in Nam? The English? The U.N.? No, us! Ahh, fuck ya. Wouldnt want your tainted, Yankee crap anyway. Dont come crying to us when Uncle Kim sends pricks like you to the stone age. Get Ken Lay's family to hide you in their bunker.
As for Fiji - I find Suva to be a drag, but the Coral Coast is great. I recommend The Warwick. Top spot. Price has gone up a bit since Bali bombings, but its still good value. For around $1,500AU, you get a weeks hols. That includes airfares, transfers, accomodation, all meals - and best of all - AS MUCH PISS AS YOU CAN DRINK!
The resorts are top stuff. The greatest thing is that Fiji Bitter is actually Victoria Bitter. We shipped a brewery over there decades ago. Also, we flog them used beer bottles for them to re-use! Its a sweet deal.
But, be warned. The bottles are can explode very easily. Opening the top is risky. Lots of locals use gardening gloves, which is funny to see.
Suva, sadly, is a massive shit hole. It's very run down. And, the Indians own everything! Thats what has caused the coups. Loads and loads of folks from Bombay invading the place. They own every single shop in Suva. The locals hate them. Trouble is, the locals are lazy bastards. Lovely people, really nice, but lazy as all heck. Only really good for rubgy, disco bouncers or body guard. Vijay Singh is their national hero, which is kinda odd, as he's part Indian!
There's not alot to buy. Like vanuatu & Noumea, Fiji is a dumping ground for obsolete electronic goods. So, its not unusual to pay pretty much top dollar for a 5 year old cd player. To them, its brand new. We Aussies dump our unwanted shit on them, much like the rench do in Noumea, and to a certain extent, Vanuatu. I imagine Tahiti is the same.
The funny thing about Pacific Islanders is how fucking massive they are. Even the women! Also, they just cannot handle booze. They do drink beer, but prefer "Kava". Kava is a derivitive of pepper, and you can buy packets of it for nix. You boil it up and drink it. If you can! Man, its fucking horrible. Like drinking wet cardboard - if you can imagine that. It's effect is supposed to be stupifying and make you affectionate. Well, hell, a cask of red does that to me!
All in all, i recommend Fiji. Sure, it is more expensive than Bali, but a shit load safer. Also, you can drink the water. In Bali, you cant even eat a salad as the vegetables have been rinsed in their putird fucking crap waters. I've had "Bali Belly" - and its bloody awful!
Fiji is not as full on as Bali. The resorts are mainly for wealthier people, but not exclusively so. Alot of families and couples go there.
So, if you want a pampered holiday, with top food, top resorts, friendly people, which is good value considering what you can get (oh, some deals include taking the kids for free!), bearing in mind its not a shoppers paradise, go for Fiji. It's not as full of drunken fuckwits like Bali (which is a bummer - sort of - as i am a drunken fuckwit), but its safer and nicer. |

Kava is LOVELY. You used to be able to buy it in pill form at any drug store, but they found it caused liver damage, so now you can only get it at health food stores. Personally, I think what actually causes liver damage is the fact that the pill is concentrated. Which is why I have a Hawaiian connection, through which I get the powder Pacific Islanders have been drinking for centuries--without liver problems.
It is like valium. I took this for the whole two weeks I had to go home for my dad's lung-removal operation and grandfather's funeral and it kept me sane.
Good stuff. |
