I Walk Live DVD - Herbert Grönemeyer
« on: October 16, 2013, 01:50:14 PM »
Looks like there may have been a commercial DVD issued of the Herbert Grönemeyer concert where Bono showed up on two songs:

Amazon.ca has it here: http://www.amazon.ca/I-Walk-Live-2-DVD/dp/B00DJYJTUQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1381949124&sr=8-1&keywords=i+walk+live
Amazon.com has it here: http://www.amazon.com/I-Walk-Live-Herbert-Gr%C3%B6nemeyer/dp/B00DJYJTUQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1381949229&sr=8-1&keywords=i+walk+live

The Amazon.com listing shows Bono as an actor, and the reviews section lists "The concert includes two duets with Bono: an English version of Herbert's biggest hit "Mensh", and also the U2 Classic "In the Moment"."  (That would be Stuck in a Moment haha)

I ordered a copy.  I'll confirm the track listing when it arrives.  From the Amazon listing it looks like this was released last month.

Based on eBay listings, the DVD does contain both "Stuck in a Moment" and Bono singing on "Mensch".

I just played my copy, it's region free DVD (2dvd set) disc 1 full show (including both Bono appearances) disc 2 interview.
Audio is DD 2.0 only. Strange it didn't come out in Germany...
Anyway the package is very nice - digipack with booklet, one page with Bono pictures.





Enjoy! Still regret not attending this one, so close to my hometown...

God, Part II

Just purchased this (as well as the RELEASED! Human Rights concert set) from Amazon. Really irritated that a Blu-ray counterpart isn't being offered. Most of RELEASED!'s material is decades old, so I can let it slide, but why would a current-era performance be released only on a format that is quickly becoming obsolete?

About 9 minutes in on the second DVD Gronemeyer is being interviewed and discusses Bono's participation on the DVD, their work in Make Poverty History together, and the work on the album. The interviewer (like Gronemeyer himself during the performances) calls the song "Stuck in the Moment". They discuss Bono for about 3 minutes in total.  Nothing too insightful for me.  Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone is wondering.  There's also a few pictures from the live performance on disc one with Bono under the Gallery.
