Thread: OLD NEWS: r kelly to release DVD of tour in 2007

I can't wait for this DVD to come out. I plan on buying it at Best Buy on March 20, but I don't plan on watching it until April 5. Me and my wife are flying to Las Vegas for a couple of days and the flight is like 4 hours. The dvd will entertain us on the plane and help take our minds off the long flight. Eventhough R. Kelly and the other rapper fell out on the Best of Both Worlds Tour, I still wish they could come to some type of agreement and release a DVD of that tour. I know the one we went to in Greenboro, NC was very good. Maybe that could be a suggestion for the settlement in the lawsuit betwwen them. They both agree to release the concert DVD and all the earnings go to R. Kelly. What do all of you think?

GJ.. If ur reading this.. is this gonna come out in Aus? cuz Trapped didn't

I'm gonna so buy that dvd

Is March 20th the officail date? Do we know this for a fact?

its coming out on my birthday. What a wonderful gift from him!

I hope I'm not off topic, but I wonder why he chose oakland to be the city for the concert dvd and not any of the other cities he went to. I don't have anything against Oakland if anyone on here are from Oakland, but I thought that the Atlanta show was one of the most hyped ones out of the three I went to. If anyone on here went to the Oakland show, comparing your show to the other reviews did he do extra material or something?

I'm not quite sure to be honest, the Oakland show was one of the last so maybe by the time he got to this date all or any issues would have been ironed out with regards to his own performance, I know Marvin Gaye did a live show at the Oakland venue so whether that was relevent as we all know he's a big fan of his. It could also come down to recording costs...some cities will charge more for recording at that particular there venue.

^ ^ its all about the dollars.

1. what kind of $$$ is r.kelly's camp having to pay out to record in oakland?
2. what kind of marketable footage was captured? was it hyped? was it paced correctly? was it a good performance (vocal and visual)?
3. while in oakland CALIFORNIA, r.kellys crew could have had the resouces to tape such a DVD release available without that much transportation cost to bring it to a city like phoenix, atlanta, etc etc.

my two cents.

Thanks for the responses. I never thought it about it like that. More than likely it probably had a lot to do with the costs, and being that it was the last show all of the kinks dealing with the production of the show were gone.

i have been waiting for a dvd/live cd from the r for a while...i hope he decides to release a live cd next
