Hi -
I've recently seen the "I Can't Wait" Video Collection and "Stevie Nicks In Concert" (originally on VHS -- and from HBO) for sale on ebay as a DVD. Now I know these aren't offical re-releases, but does anyone have any idea about the quality? I got that Mirage DVD (the one with the BTM group shot on the cover...wtf?) and the quality is better than my old over-played VHS tape. So before I dropped some cash on this DVD version of the 1981 concert, I wanted to test the waters and see if anyone else had gotten these and can give a review on the quality. Many thanks!

but I am sure those DVD's have the same quality as does the Mirage DVD...You could have saved yourself $$$$ by finding someone who has those 2 shows on DVD and who would have traded you copies.

I have the Bella Donna Concert. The quality is quite good. I would definitely say comparable to the Mirage DVD. I did however about freak over the weekend when it started to skip during Rhiannon. I was able to get it playing again properly in my laptop, praise be.

My opinion, it's worth the money for a nice cleaned up copy. However, if you have the capacity to copy DVDs, burn yourself a back up just in case.

My advice is to find a kind and generous fellow fan, and do a 2:1 or B&P trade with them... instead of spending 40 bucks (or more) on a bootleg. :)

there's plenty of fans/traders who are willing to share their collection...There's one such 'metalhead dude/Stevie & FM fan/Ledgie' who shares his videos via B&P trade, but 'his' name escapes me at the moment...hmmm!!!

Yeah, I have the Stevie Nicks in Concert that I got off eBay, and it was only 20. Not that bad and the sound quality is actually pretty good. I'm happy I bought it! :)
