Vanden Plas live DVD (sort of)

[Snowmaker]

This is the closest thing you’re going to get to one for now:

In 2006, Andy Kuntz of Vanden Plas brought his rock opera ‘Abydos’ to the stage of the Pfalztheater in Kaiserslautern. The lavish, time-consuming and colourful staging enjoyed such a great popularity that this play, which deals with ‘love, friendship and overpowering dreams’ and was inspired by Egyptian mythology, was once again on the programme in 2007.

The DVD contains the entire 2 hours and 30 minutes performance including the German dialogues (English subtitles are optional), the ‘Abydos’ songs are in English. Andy Kuntz himself acts and sings the part of ‘Fly’, but also the other actors and the choir are well worth seeing and listening to. The band members of Vanden Plas took over the part of the orchestra.
PAL system (for Europe), region code 0, 2.0 stereo, 5.1 surround. music performed by Vanden Plas.

Damn! You'd think they were paying me to promote it.

I've waited years for a DVD of the Abydos performance.

Seems you can only import it. I know CD Inzane has it for $42. Hoping it will show up other places...

And its MUCHHH better than any possible setlist for a Vanden Plas DVD.

This coming from a big VP fan as well, but holy shit is this Abydos performance brilliant.

The dvd totally kicks ass, you can order it from the insideout.de store if you're willing to pay the shipping cost.

Can't wait to see this...the cd is just short of phenomenal. Andy at his finest.

With the wife not working and a baby due in a couple weeks, I can't order it now.

Once I hit the min order for shipping to the USA, shipping costs were a whopping 27 EUROS ($37.30 USD). Some US store has GOT to carry this at some point...

From what I can see in the trailer, they have a few Vanden Plas songs thrown into the show, such as Healing Tree. If it wasn't so insanely expensive, I'd definitely place an order for it. Abydos is a great CD, although I really wanna see a staged performance of Christ 0, myself.

That's what I'm hoping for.
