It's not from Antwerpen but London o2. Look at the cannera in the head of the guitar. That only happened there.
You might get lucky, now and then

I've been in all (except the BBC one) concerts recorded on video of the MK solo career that never were released, except the one of London O2 this year, that can be seen in the CBS report...

I have the feeling that it might be a change they release it, LOL

Me too! Hope so.... But with MK when you hope it's not going to happen  ;D ;D ;D Anyhow would be great to see a proper video this time. These snippets look great.

Don't forget that they recorded at least three concerts (maybe four) from the Tracker tour, by Henrik Hansen, and except the bits included in the "Good on you son" video clip, the material lies on a drawer... or a closet  :lol

I checked the O2 London arena diary by Guy and that's what he said:

Our set itself wasn’t without its technical difficulties. At the beginning of the second song, the entire lighting rig failed. It took LD, Tellson James, a few seconds to react and hit Mark with a spot whilst the lighting boys re-patched or rebooted (I suspect the latter) and a couple of minutes later, it returned. It was interesting playing in the darkness for a few minutes. There were also a few rather off-putting crackles emanating from an electric guitar, I suspect from stage left and Richard’s rig. Not sure what happened but considering we’ve done 22 shows and it’s the first instance of such things, we’re not doing too badly.

Looks unlikely they would release a dvd/bluray of a concert where lights went off for some minutes and they had to play in the dark...  :hmm

They could mix it with Antwerp (if they recorded that one as well) or with another concert they recorded. That could work... I was just looking trough some videos from the O2. Also in Romeo Mark asked again somebody to turn the light off... That is also not so nice dvd/blu-ray material I guess :smack :lol :lol

Really hope they would release something like that. But I’m not getting my hopes up again, I believe it when it is in my mailbox :lol

I believe that's similar to Henrik Hansen thoughts... "I hope they would pay me something, anyway"

LOL

The last few shows have been outstanding performances and would've made for a fine DVD, although missing the killer songs.
