Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteFantastic :-)
ReplyDeleteThe cover is gorgeous, isn't it? I only wish they'd waited until touring Australia, NZ, & SE Asia before releasing this, as we haven't had the opportunity to see the show 'live', but...oh well. Can't wait to get another piece of PSB history!
ReplyDeleteexciting stuff - and a concert that ends with It Doesn't Often Snow At Christmas is very thrilling to me; that song dominated my December and still gets played now!
ReplyDeleteI jumped up and down a lot during It's a sin. I think I might be very visible on that DVD. Erk.

Pet & Pandemonium
ReplyDeleteSo, can you see me, somewhere in there? I’m really glad the Pet Shop Boys are releasing their O2 Arena concert on DVD and live CD; it will bring back such good memories from a gig I almost didn’t make it to...
