Red Lorry Yellow Lorry DVD

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

anybody else gone and bought this? what did you think?

it looks like a locked off camera was set up at the back of the gig and filmed the entire thing from one angle, no zoom ins, no footage from the side of the stage, no other bits. Ok I know it's live gig but it doesn't look they made any effort.... I know they can better :D

It's called "Thunder in the Black Cave", from a gig in Belgium in Jan' 2004, it doesn't really capture what a Lorries gig was like back in the day, which is a shame 'cause they were fuckin' magic :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: , want a copy Lee? :innocent:

that's exactly wot I was thinking 8) Would like to see it, but it don't sound like it's worth full whack.

when i saw the Lorries play in the early 90s i had a VHS camcorder with me, and asked their road manager if i could film. he said, 'where's the camera?' i said, 'in the case here.' he said, 'keep it in there.' :evil:

some bands were cool about it, Mudhoney gave full permission, so did Thrill Kill Kult and Meat Beat Manifesto. even Helmet said yeah, but Faith No More's manager (same tour/night) said the camera has to leave after Helmet.

The Lorries were one of the best live bands I've ever seen; a serious bloody racket! "Chance" live was better than any drug....

Shame about the DVD; I've not seen it either, assuming that it would hardly be an elaborate affair.
