I met a cool lady waiting outside, and she had been to 10 shows in Europe. The party is on. Best Buy was hooked up, cool psters and Stones blasting on big screen. The dvd's look great, nice package. Let's do this! |

Glad you got it, good to hear Best Buy is doing a decent in store promo,too. I will have to wait, like a fool, I made the mistake of asking for the set as a Christmas gift. Oh come on Christmas day! Let it rock! Gar |

I admire your patience. I couldn't do it.
My wife wanted to get this for me for Christmas. Told her I'd give her the outside wrapping and she could put the money inside and wrap that in a box for me to open in December. |

No fanfare @ The Best Buy I was at. Got it, got out.
I'd offer to pick it up for anyone who is in need here in the States. I'm not here to make any dough on this, just cover the costs of my travel, shipping by USPS Priority with tracking. $40. I'll send it to you. Helping out any Stones fan, that's all. Send me a PM if interested. |

There is absolutely no excitement here whatsoever....this is a non-event. Nothing like the pandomonium over the LZ DVD...another poorly planned event by Cohl.

Best Buy here had a big screen and surround system cranking 4 flicks in the front of the store and 40 Licks on the PA. All the other big screens had a football game on however. |

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just watched disc 1, very good. That Well, Well jam was cool as shit! There will be another Stones album, I could sense it. A good day so far. Best Buy was blowing it out. Saving the other discs for later. THE STONES ROCK YOUR FACE!!! |

Just got back from picking up my copy. Very quiet at the Best Buy I went to. Some banners hanging from the ceiling, but that was it. Saw a commercial for the DVD while waiting on the checkout line.
So, here I am staring at these DVD's, wishing I had laser vision. Maybe if I hold them real close to my eyes, I might get a glimpse of what's in store. Damn, no luck. Time for plan B. Oh boss man, I don't feel too well. Maybe I should go home now so that I'm okay for tomorrow and I don't get everyone else here sick. |

Like I said Scope, this is another embarrassment for the band....this thing will be lucky to sell 100K at this point. |
|
Some Guy |
jb, I sense your unhappy. Why? Why are you not happy on such a joyous day |
|
jb |
I am always unhappy when the Stones poorly market their products... |
|
Some Guy |
Besides that, what do you think about it?? |
|
Nellcote |
JB, do we really care the amount of product it moves?
It's The Stones, dammit!
In addition, with a price of $30, we are talking the ability to make it the best rock dvd set for sales figures yet, you should understand. What is going to outsell it presently on the shelves, in that category?
As I've asked you in the past, why are you not their
financial advisor, taking the place of Prince Lowenstein?
Further, you really do not think the Stones care, do you?
You really should consider hoisting another mantra in place of this infatuation (what a pissa video that was BTW) with Stones sales figures. This continual ranting just does not suit your barrister image. |

It's not the Stones marketing, JB. It's usually the management of the store who decides what to promote more. Some stores have the Stones on their TV's while others don't. That responsiblity of promoting falls on every store manager and their management team. They decide not to heavily promote the Stones DVD. You should probably give a call to your local Best Buy and blast the manager. |
|
jb |
Your right Nellcote...they actually have tried to promote this fairly well given the exclusive with BB and appearing on the Today Show. I am now happy again...hopefully we will actually hear (spelled correctly) guitars on the DVD. |

Some Guy |
jb, why won't you acknowledge me? Why? |
|
jb |
Hello Some Guy....how are you? The courts are closed today and i gave my staff a paid day off. How are you doing? |
|
Some Guy |
Fantastic!! Thanks, I am taking today off to jam to the flicks. And I just got a call for an interview for a job I would really enjoy. My job now is great, but this would be killa!! Much closer to the house. How the heck are you? |
|
jb |
Truthfully, I have been suffering from lower back pain right near my right kidney for about a month...I am getting a little concerned...I took some pain killers and they didn't really help....
What kind of job are you interviwing for? |
|
Poplar |
I walk into the local Best Buy, and Ronnie is jam'n out the Can't You Hear Me Knocking solo on a big screen right in my face!!! yeah!!! then, the small and very reasonable fee of 30$. no complaints here as far as the purchase procedure goes. it took 5 minutes, and i heard stones the whole time i was there. what the hell do people want, a Stones cover band in the Best Buy? good grief.
now - i have to wait 9 hours at freak'n work before i can watch. ugh. this is going to be a long ass day.
once again - thank you stones.

My nipples hurt .

Trey Krimsin |
Maybe you should stop pinching them so much, Joey. They might fall off. |
|
Some Guy |
Joey, do you like the Flicks? |
|
Joey |
" Joey, do you like the Flicks? "
Did not buy it !!!!!!!
I am going to ask for it as a Christmas gift . That way I can view it on the DVD Player whilst I drink my " Hess Select Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Reserve '99 " and ignore the relatives on Christmas Eve / Day !
Skee !
