Someone's offering Stevie's SoundStage DVD "BLUERAY" version on Ebay.
Looks like a fake to me. I've seen promo's of the standard disc, but this
looks suspicious.

If one of you Ledgies wins it, let us know if it's the real thing.

I found another one since my last post.
One is at a current bid of $11.00
and the other is a buy it now for $45.oo

The first one looks to be a complete fake and
the second one could possibly be the misconcetion
that many people are having about the PBS DVD.
It is not, I repeat not in High Definition. The show
was filmed in Hi Def, but the DVD PBS released was a
standard DVD.

I'm sure at some time in the future it will be released
in Hi Def "BLUERAY".

One last thing about the DVD. Why wouldn't someone
just order it from PBS, instead of paying almost $200.00
on ebay (like I've seen some go for). RIDICULOUS!

It's Blu-ray. I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to release on Blu-ray, that's the way home entertainment is going - at least that's what the studios hope.

If you're correcting me on my spelling of "Blu-ray" you're correct.
And I feel sure we will see Stevie's SoundStage DVD released on "Blu-ray".

But I stand by my original post.

I'm not disagreeing with you, it probably will be released on Blu-ray (no quotation marks necessary) and it could be real because distributors/studios send out Blu-ray promos or check discs, as they are called. That said, if it is a legitimate promo they shouldn't be selling it. I've known journalists get sacked for doing just that.

I didn't think you were disagreeing with me, I just thought you were correcting my misspelling of the word Blu-ray. Which is fine, because I misspell words all the time.

I haven't been sent a Blu-ray promo yet of any artist, but you're probably right that it will eventually change to that.

But I wasn't trying to get anyone in trouble on Ebay, they aren't hurting me. I just thought one of the DVD's mentioned was a bootleg. And the other might have been an honest mistake on the part of the seller. I don't have my copies of SoundStage in front of me, but I do believe they state "captured in hi-def", which of course doesn't mean the DVD itself is in hi-def.

I looked at that one guy's auction and he had almost 600 sales and a 100% approval rating. It's really intriguing. I only own 2 blu-ray discs (the two X-files movies), so it'd be fun to have something to add to my collection. The thing about blu-ray though, is aside from the picture quality, it's best if you have behind the scenes information and features that people can click on as they watch the movie, so that you can get full use out of the blu-ray functionality.

Fleetwood Mac wouldn't know how to give us "extras" like that if their very lives depended upon it.

I've been sent loads of Blu-ray check discs/promos myself. The majority are films but I've had a couple of music ones too.
But yeah, it could be a mistake by the seller.

TONIGHT, I went down to SEARS... They have it EXCLUSIVELY... Now, here is the thing. It is a BLURAY of SOUNDSTAGE. There are several songs that are NOT on this disc. HOWEVER: I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! It will pass the time until January when, STEVIE LIVE IN CHICAGO will come out. So... in short, LIVE IN CHICAGO will be out in january. If you need a BLURAY Stevie fix... Go get it at SEARS. The songs are great and it is a much better experience than let us say, YOUTUBE!!!! GO GET IT!!!

Love,
KEN

Excellent find, kennation!

I just checked their website, and there it is. Although, content-wise, it's identical to the DVD that PBS is selling (ie: it's still missing "Dreams" and "Beauty And The Beast").

How is it that n0ne of us knew about this before?

Ken, excellent find. Maybe you could post a scan of the front and back cover?

The one listed on the Sears website looks like the standard version.

Guess I'll have to buy a Blu-ray player by 3/24/09

They are basically the same cover only one difference: THE COLOR. Being colorblind, I do not know exactly what colors, but I am seeing a shades different. One seems like a wawrm color and the other seems like a cool tone. (Sorry, that's all I got) Now the one from Sears copy looks just like to one on the website. Live in Chicago has a blue background. Same pic and everything.

Hope that helps since my scanner's not workin.

Thanks Ken. The Blu-ray version I saw had the word "Blu-ray" on the cover, or at the very least on the Amaray case.

I did not order the PBS DVD because I still have "Live In Chicago" backordered on Amazon from last March!

After reading this post I went to Sears' website and purchased the Blu-ray online for pickup after work. I just got the confirmation from Sears that my order is ready for pickup...so I will report back later! :]

As luck would have it...I ended up getting the Soundstage Blu-ray for free! :]

The quality was very good. I have not seen the DVD version, but it looks a little better than the HD broadcast on PBS in June. The employees told me that Samsung had just setup this Blu-ray display 2 days ago, and that's where the Soundstage Blu-ray discs came from.

THANK YOU, Ken!! You get my vote for 'scoop of the year' or 'most helpful Stevie Nicks fan of the year'-- it seems NOBODY knew it was in stores-- err-- store-- not even StevieNicksInfo, which is an awesome website, no-one knew- i went to Sears just before closing, and sure enough, its there- $24.99-- just popping it in now, but some quick info- at the Sears i went to, theres a display of tvs on end-caps, and 'The Chain' by Fleetwood Mac was playing on the tv- so i looked there, around the corner, on the next endcaps- nothing at eye- level- turns out the Stevie dvds are on the shelf BELOW the tv that was playing 'The Chain'- certainly not 'eye level' -- more like 'dick level' or 'knee level' (or who knows, 'dick to your knee level')-- har--
ahem- well anyway, it is, as you said, Blu-Ray, there is no booklet inside, song list is the same as the PBS dvd (without 'Dreams' or "BATB"-- but still, 16 songs, and BEFORE Christmas, as it had to be, in my heart :)
And thank you Ken, may i suggest you start a new thread (if you like) because this real news bulletin is kind of hidden in this thread, which i am so glad i decided to read!
Go to Sears, anyone interested-- and remember, ''Knee Level"-- under the tvs :)
Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, to you-
