Green Fest videos from TV
Once again, happy New year 2008! Срећна Ðова година! / Srećna Nova godina! ^_^
So…RHCP’s set at Green Fest was on TV and I managed to capture everything with my TV card. Until one of those nice people who have better signal manages to upload the files, these’ll do. Please, note that three songs were not shown on TV, due to reasons stated six months ago: Throw Away Your Television, Snow ((Hey Oh)) and, unfortunately, Don’t Forget Me, which was great even despite the obvious problems.
The direction of the show was, as predicted, supreme. People who filmed really strange and scary things in the past did a great job filming “only” a huge rock concert. The best out of these videos is SOS, as whoever did the montage made a perfect music-video-style combination of John singing the ABBA’s ballad and some of his best guitar playing moments in slow motion; blending with some people’s huge banner with John, we love you written on it at the very end. I was in tears re-living this moment, I hope it touches people who have not actually been down there in the audience as well.
And here is that beautiful video, it simply has to be on the front page, on its own:
[MEDIA=66]To download the files in .wmv format (14 files, 230 Mb total) and an additional, iPod-compatible .mp4 file of SOS, go here.
To watch the show without downloading, look at the weekly playlist.
As soon as this is available in better format, I will update the files.
