concert films

#1 Post by Brightyoungthing »

Hello!
Who has ever appeared in one of the group's concert films?
I’ve appeared in two of them: eight times in the film 'Pandemonium: Live at the O2 Arena, London' and six times in 'Pet Shop Boys: Inner Sanctum'.

I recognized a friend of mine at the Dreamworld tour video. Too bad for him it was during Go West...

I was much too far away at the Performance recording in Birmingham, but at least I can say I was there.

Not sure I've been at any other recorded gigs.

I'm in Produced by Trevor Horn, and I think Inner Sanctum although I've never watched the video. My legs are in the Winner video, I kept leaning back out of the shot when they filmed the balcony!

I'm in the Somewhere show at the end when they are playing Left to My Own Devices when the camera turns around and shows the crowd.

I’ve never given this a thought until now and will rewatch them in the next month or so. I get very carried away at concerts and ignore who I’m with at the time and get very lost in music. If they ever get round to releasing the heaven gig when the computers crashed there’s a good chance I’ll be on there. I wonder if and when they decide to pack it all in there will be a box set of live shows although if some were filmed for television it might be a big headache getting the rights and most things are on YouTube so they might not bother.

I’m in the Somewhere film where a crowd of fans are outside the venue. I look up at camera.
Woof.

I'm in the audience for the Panemonium O2 concert and was at the last Inner Sanctum show in the ROH which was the second night filmed but can't be seen in either.

I can be seen in the video for one of Erasure's singles, part of which was filmed at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin.

I was in the crowd at the Birmingham NEC for one of the filmed Performance shows (3rd June 1991). Never spotted myself though.

I was also in the crowd at the NEC on 3rd June for the filmed Performance show. GCSE Maths exam in the morning then we were off to Birmingham in the afternoon for PSB. THIRTY FIVE YEARS AGO tomorrow! Where has the time gone?

I was also in the Somewhere documentary - queuing up on the first night.

It was the freshest moves I've ever seen, anyway... :lol:
