Saturday night was pure electric from start to finish, managed to get to the barrier of the B stage, so couldn't always get to see what was on the main stage at times, but seeing the 5 if them performing, laughing and joking on the B stage reminded me of what they were about when it all started.

The sound seem so much better than the rain soaked Tuesday, Robbie looked tired towards the end, and who can blame him, So much energy was put into everything, When he came to the front of the B stage during Never Forget he mouthed the words "Im F***ing too old for all this in his "Norman Wisdom Style"

 

By far the biggest crowd reaction was to "Back For Good" it wasn't the loudest, but it was when fans in the gods finall got offf their seats, from then on, I don't think many sat down again. My daughter managed to get a hand shake from Gary during Greatest Day, then Howard & Jason during Eight Letters, a great day all round.

 

 

 

Wow i bet your daughter was ecstatic getting to shake hands with them and would add to what already sounded like a fantastic night.

Details of the DVD have been released, also confirms that Progress has sold over 3 million worldwide.....and i actually love the DVD cover :)

 

 

Take That's Progress Live is getting a DVD and Blu-ray release - and it's coming your way on November 21st.

 

This year Take That embarked on the biggest tour the UK and Ireland had ever seen breaking all previous records. The Progress Live Tour went through 29 UK stadiums and played to over 1.8 million people. Now everyone who went, as well as those who missed the most spectacular live show the UK has ever seen, can enjoy the show on double disc DVD and Blu-ray.

 

The double disc package includes exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of life on the road with Take That as well as the band's entire epic live show.

 

Named after the three-million-plus selling Progress album that reunited them, the Progress Live 2011 tour, was one of the biggest and most anticipated reunions of the summer, with Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, Jason Orange, Mark Owen and Robbie Williams, playing to massive sell-out audiences around the UK and Ireland.

 

This was the first time the band had toured together as a five-piece since 1995 - and the biggest tour in UK and Irish history, with a record-breaking 1.34 million tickets snapped up in less than 24 hours of going on sale.

 

 

Here is an early trailer of the DVD, it is saying that it was filmed in Wembley but im sure that the stadium they are in is the Man City one.??

Old Man? :lol:

Apparently Robbie is taking OM home to LA with him so he can put him in his garden. Gordon Smart says that when it stands up fully its 100ft high!!

 

Imagine having a 100foot mechanical man in your garden! So much for the convention water feature or a swing :lol:

My husband once worked for a bloke who had a 30' wire sculpture of a giraffe in the garage!

 

Kath

Haha bloody hell!

Funnily enough i half expected Rob to keep OM, but i sort of expected him to keep the Big Man as well and fix it to his roof

 

 

 

My copy of the DVD arrived today (rather early! :o), really enjoying it so far, makes me wish even more that I'd been able to go to the show though...

Got my copy this morning, just finished watching it!

 

It is absolutely fantastic!!!! an amazing tour, and when you see the DVD you know exactly why Eight Letters was the final song, it suits the occasion perfectly. Then the credits roll and WWWY is playing :) made my saturday night :):)

True, I'd always wondered why it was the last song to be performed but in the context of the tour and the goodbyes it does fit perfectly.

 

The setlist is generally very good, not sure I'd have began with Rule The World though.

Yeah the only problem is RTW at the start but apart from a couple of things aside, its amazing

I think songs alike up all night and shine are better openers than rule the world, rule the world is a great one to end the night with i think.

yeah but shine was the perfect way to go into the peppers club band bit of the show

 

And a great way to really get the crowd on their feet.

The Entertainment Retailers Association has predicted that Take That’s Progress Live Tour DVD and Now! 80 album will be two of the top ten entertainment gift products this Christmas, and they are outselling their entire group of rivals just two days after release.

 

Following its online preview stream last week and release on Monday, November 21, Take That’s Progress Live DVD is outselling the entire Top 50 music DVD chart twice over.

wow, looks like the dvd will have brilliant opening sales, outselling the rest of the top 50 twice over is amazing.

What would a regular opening week of sales for a DVD of this nature be?
