"it would be too expensive" What, like a £100+ PFAYM box set? A £500 photo book? A £165 single box set? A £15 Q magazine and vinyl? And what utter nonsense anyway. It's not like their past video releases have been like Fellini films or something is it? They could just give a competent fan a £500 camcorder, add the soundboard audio and post it on their website, or even just sell it via iTunes. "Too expensive" indeed, what a joke.

I also think that he actually meant it would be too expensive as in cost to the band to arrange and organise, but the sentiments the same, i mean he's sold a few of his £300 deluxe edition and the boxset sold out so it's not like the band is brassic!!

 ). I'm not even sure I blame the band themselves, it shouldn't be their job to even have to think about having the gig filmed really, it should just be an obvious thing to do by their management. They're playing the O2, not a pub for goodness' sake, if they can manage that they'll sell enough video copies to make money on it... Anyway, sorry, don't want to de-rail the thread anymore than I have done, I'm pleased for people who've got their copy of Death of a Polaroid signed, it's a lovely book I think.

It's gonna be filmed anyway for the screens... right? He said there would be big screens.
If not, enjoy your view in the vertigo seats!

That's a bitch, I'm gutted it won't be filmed. I just hope then, that a soundboard recording leaks out as they sometimes do somehow and loads of fans in different areas can film songs and maybe someone with some talent can edit it all well and make DVDs for fans on here

Well I went down today and it all went very smoothly, Nicky was lovely as ever and I thanked him for kicking off my indiepop phase by playing a Talullah Gosh record on the radio a while back. Anyways, got him to sign my copy with 'keep warm, make trouble' and he seemed pleased at the not entirely obscure but we'll say 'niche' reference!....
 ...as you can see from the photo... sort of! Giant shades/glasses + flash don't always go well together. Still, I was happy. Not sure if I bumped into any FD'ers but everyone in the queue seemed really relaxed and friendly. A good day I have to say; one the way home from work after I felt a bit strange, and then realised it was the extremely rare 'contented'. Ah, there's not many things, people or events that make me go all fanboyesque y'know.

Lovely pic!! How many people were there still when you got there bambi? I was one of the first in queue and it was all NO PICTURES AT CLOSE RANGE and NO POSED PHOTOS!! Maybe the rules were relaxed somewhat when it was apparent that there was only about 50 people queuing? I dunno.
