The Official April 14, 2018, Public Auditorium, Cleveland, OH, U.S.A. thread

Parts 1 and 2 are already blocked

Some of it sounds doctored.

WWWU from the uncut footage sounds better than originally. Bad Name and IML sound worse. Prayer sounds the same. And I'm comparing to the FB livestream we saw, so I don't know. WWWU sounded pretty weak and it was the best song in the uncut video, but I don't know why it's the only one that sounds improved without the real fix.

Anyway, I've watched bits and pieces and comparing the raw footage to the final cut... yes... they've broken the protools with this. Prayer was impossible to fix tho

They've given it a little bit more oomph, not just the vocals. Sounds less messy, but to me the facts that they have to do this is very very sad. It's not (normal and understandable) polishing something rough to make it shiny and new, it's way way way more than that, it's trying to fool people, but whatever. Already discussed...


Maybe the link are not working for you? They are still online:

I think those clips are the broadcast through a phone though... not directly from TV. I don't have HBO so no idea how you record them and what quality to expect, but this is not full quality for sure.

Is planning to get a tattoo to commemorate this historical moment positive enough for you? Or going to sleep at 6am waiting for the final jam (I still can't believe I was such an idiot!!!) and messing my fragile sleep pattern for more than a week afterwards positive enough for you?

There's more than black and white. I'd cherish this forever, I'll remember all the feelings, but it's not incompatible with having an opinion or seeing all the grey.

I think HBO may have it blocked in the U.S.

When I clicked on your earlier links it said "not available in your country". The first of these latest links says "This video contains content from HBO Inc, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds."

HBO has it available on their channels thru June 3rd. Maybe they'll lighten up on the restrictions after that date.

Of course, why didn't I think of that

I guess it's only fair, HBO Spain for instance doesn't even plan to broadcast this

I hope somebody can record and share. I usually get HBO contents through my satellite TV provider so I might be able to watch and share some... one of these days...

Here's all the speeches from the broadcast:

And here's the performances:


EDIT: hmm, but that one's got IML in it. Is it the broadcast or has someone just added the HBO logo? Strange...

Ok, that seems to have been the "previous" version. Here's the whole thing, incl. doctored vocals:

Not Available In The US...

But here are Two of the Three performances that are Doctored for US people:
