Same here, in Russia.

Quoted from "Sandra"

Same here - I've not had a PAL / NTSC issue, it's only if a disc is actually regionalised it's caused a problem

thankfully PAL/NTSC has nothing to do with region code - PAL/NTSC are two different ways of encoding the picture itself

the only thing i miss is the special features, and the extra camara angles

I do like the fact that Rick & Michael are show alot more

I am currently watching the bluray on my 40'' full HD tv. I must say: it's astonishing! Clear, crisp picture and nice sound quality. Even when HP misses lyrics, the show is still very much enjoyable. I can live with such things

Skibadee...

A few thoughts from old Ninja here, relating only to the CD. I haven't seen the DVD yet (I'll probably be watching that tonight, and I'll post on here after I do) you see.

Intro/J'Adore Hardcore = I absolutely love the intro, it sounds superb, absolutely superb. It whipped me into a frenzy just listening to it. I can't imagine how it felt to be stood in the crowds knowing that the show was about to kick off. Absolutely superb opening, and the effects sound amazing, I can't wait to see them later! I love J'Adore. Absolutely love it, my favourite Scooter track in years, and live, well, it was MADE to be played live! Stunning start.

Posse = I must be missing something, having read the other posts in this thread. I haven't spotted the mistake by HP at all, and I've listened atleast 10 times! I think it's because I don't expect live performances to be word perfect. I like that HP sometimes mixes things up, it makes the track more special and unique. I'll listen to Posse again and see if I can spot the mistake, but it won't matter. It's such a good version of the track and a massive party bomb.

The sound above my hair, yeah = I love the way HP introduces it! I don't overly like the single version, it's just a bit basic for Scooter and it will never be one of my favourites. I'm sure it was much better live than it comes across on the CD, and it's probably my least favourite of the live tracks but it sounds pretty cool with HP doing the autotune.

Stuck on replay = As Ed always says, EPIC. I love that they played a longer version! One of the best instrumental tracks for AGES, and the single is 3rd in my favourites from the 4th chapter. Sounded brilliant live and I really wish I had been there to witness it.

Jumping all over the world = I've become a bit sick of this track in the last year or so, mainly because I played it so often when it first came out! The energy in the live performance made it seem different though, which I liked!

The Question is what is the question = I loved the switch to the jump style, and the Question is such a fantastic track.. and kick started the 4th chapter in my opinion. I'll always think of the Question as the 4th chapter's beginning.

Second Skin = Sounds absolutely amazing live, a stunning version and it really suits HP's style.

Weekend = I thought HP sounded a bit tired on this. Having listened to Posse, I thought this was going to be an absolute BANGER of a tune. But it lacked the usual energy I thought and became a bit of a time filler, more than anything else. I love Weekend, and the HPV especially, but I don't think it really worked on this CD.

Bit a bad boy = For me, probably the highlight of the CD. After the lack of energy in Weekend, the energy in this is AMAZING. HP sounds fantastic on this track, and I love how jumbled up it seems to me, but I like that! Again, it made the track sound more unique. Loved it loved it loved it.

One (Always Hardcore) = I was really suprised when they played this one! I didn't think they would, but it sounded amazing and there's just something I really liked about HP queueing "Ricky" to start the track.

Ti Sento = TUNE of the highest order! The 24 hours a day.. refrain is one of the finest in Scooter history imo, and it HAD to be performed live, just had to be! Absolutely superb.

Whaetver you want = One of the most disappointing Scooter tracks in years imo, really average. I thought the combination of the WYW anthemic chorus and Scooter would be a sure fire hit, but it just doesn't work for me.

Nessaja = Probably the best this track has ever sounded. I love this live version, absolutely magnificent. So much energy and so much emotion in the chorus, it really fitted the concert perfectly.

How much is the f*ing fish = YES YES YES. WOW, just, WOW.

Maria (I like it loud) = I was a bit disappointed we didn't get the same EAA drumming intro between Rick and Michael, but it's still one of the most powerful and loud Scooter tracks of all time, one of the absolute best singles ever, and a bomb live!

Endless Summer/Hyper Hyper/Move Your Ass = OH MY WORD . The best these tracks have EVER sounded.

I can't stop listening to the live tracks, my favourites are, without a doubt, How much is the fish, J'AH, Posse, Stuck On Replay and Bit a Bad Boy. Better CD than EAA in my opinion, I can't wait for the DVD. I'm disappointed they cut so many tracks from the CD though. I love Clic Clac and Scarborough Reloaded, I'd love to have those on the CD.

To WHOEVER decided to cut so many tracks from the CD. And for the decision to not perform State of Mind..

a few things i notices so far

1-no hp nick name in the booklet/folded tracklist, normanlly hpwould put a name in eg hp f===ing baxxter
2-i loveposse, my all time fave, just got better but i miss the metallic drum bits on the refrain, if you know what i mean
3-manana had the nost fire works on the dvd, this track should have been on the cd, i like how hp raises his arms and the fireworks shoot up at the same time (like a god)
4-JTR WYW i dot know if any one ellse noticed, but it seems the techno WYW parts were removed from the song so the giutars were more soundable, its only after the watch out part they come in to play?, kinda cool i think
5- its kinda strande how hp intoduses the band before the end, kinda like a encore
6-im pretty sure hp says that rick is from chelsea, can anyone confirm this, i know rick is from lichinstien, germany, if im right, does that mean rick now live in england in chelsea, london?

of corse these aint bad things, just some thinhs i noticed

@Kelvo: HP always had/has a funny introduction of the band. Rick is ofcourse from Germany, not from England or Lichtenstein LOL (and btw, Lichtenstein is NOT in Germany, it's a totally different country) He is joking....
I remember 2 year ago HP presented Michael "From Osaka, Japan,this is Michael Simon" just because Michael had a violet t-shirt with "Osaka" on it

HAhah I love how he says "All the time the jumpers are missing", I don't know why thats funny

@he also says Michael is from Chicago

me too, it seems funny altough its not haha, i think its the way it comes out suddenly

I'm still waiting for my copy....
Looking forward to see the show

Still waiting... hope it will come in June.

Man !! I just got it today !! Dam it's awsome !! Pure energy and power !! Felt almost like i was there !!

Highlights:

Posse (I Need You On The Floor)

Stuck On Replay

Move Your Ass !!

Bit A Bad Boy

Second Skin

+ They bring out a dvd (they should do that from every tour!)

+ There's only one track missing.

+ good mixture between crowd, hp, Rick, Michael.

+ great intro

+ great special versions from 'Stuck on replay', 'Endless summer,...' , Posse.



- If i buy a LIVE cd / dvd. I want to HEAR the crowd. The crowdnoise is once again far to quiet!!!!

- i don't have to see Rick or Michael if you can see they yust are play backing.

- the extra voice in 'bit a bad boy' and 'Ti Sento. I don't see the value of it!

- Weak instrumental (okay, it's also because i think Clic Clac is one of the worst songs Scooter ever made, but they are just 2 tracks between each other, no mix. If you compare to the instrumental track from the WGTLLN tour than this instumental is realy week!

my blu ray came this morning and watched the whole concert and the 45 videos , it was a very good concert only bad thing they didnt perform logical song, the best song was F The Millennium / Call Me Manana.

other good songs i liked they done were J´adore Hardcore
Posse (I Need You On The Floor) ,The Sound Above My Hair , Stuck On Replay .Jumping All Over The World,Scarborough Reloaded,Weekend!,Bit A Bad Boy,One (Always Hardcore),Ti Sento,Jump That Rock,Nessaja,How Much Is The Fish?

now it's only one hour that i got my Live DVD
it's wonderful
i spend 30 American dollars for my Live DVD cause i live in Persia and i can't buy directly my DVD but i think it worth
can't speak now i'm so happy...

I didn't buy the DVD yet, but I saw most of the tracks on YouTube.
For me the special highlights are J'adore Hardcore with the intro (the bang at the start was really massive), Posse, SOR, HMITF, Second Skin, Maria and the ES/HH/MYA medley.

Finally, I've recieved my package!






The second Live in Hamburg CD and Live in Hamburg DVD are a present for my friend Blu-Ray, CD and singles are for me )

Super news, enjoy the concert !

My DVD arrived today
It's just great. I don't say that it's better than the 2008 DVD, but it's not worse either.
When I came home, I found my package on my chair and I watched it directly.
My opinion about the tracks:
Intro - very nice intro with a magical feeling.
J'adore Hardcore - a banging tune. Nothing more to say.
Posse - awesome! I liked the C-part with it's Yes! stuff
TSAMH - at first HP's vocals were a bit weird with the auto-tune, but it has got a nice feeling.
Stuck On Replay - the club mix part is produced almost perfectly. Thank you Mike.
JAOTW - this is the power of jumpstyle
TQIWITQ - lol Just more pyros, please.
Second Skin - HP's real vocals are great.
Clic Clac/Scarborough Reloaded - one of my faves.
Fire - I like the guitar effects and the pyro on the guitar.
FTM/Call Me Manana - FTM was played for a short time, but after that CMM was rocking!
Weekend - not that special, but OK.
Bit A Bad Boy - love it. The C-part is awesome.
One - worse than in 2008.
Ti Sento - The dancers were great here
Jump That Rock - the whole song is alright.
Nessaja - pure energy.
HMITF: It MUST be played
Maria: Cool Now I somehow like this one.
ES/HH/MYA: I like Rick and Michael's jumping, looks like they were mad. MYA was the best in this medley.

So, it was nice. I missed a lot of tracks though. Especially WTB. And also the "forgotten" albums. I wish I could be there, but maybe next time, in the Imtech Arena! Waiting for the inferno!
