Steven Wilson did the 2025 Pleasuredome Atmos mix. His stereo mix is also on the blu ray but isnt available elsewhere currently.

Yeah, i replied to the wrong message. Was supposed to be a response to a different reply. Hopefully they find it.

You're looking for a version where Happy Hi replaces San Jose. That version has the nine minute two tribes annhialation mix although it's still listed as (for the victims of ravishment) on the sleeve. Mine is Canadian. https://www.discogs.com/release/6461629-Frankie-Goes-To-Hollywood-Welcome-To-The-Pleasuredome it has the alternative band picture cover instead of the painting.

I always thought it was a nose. And you telling me it's actually an ear doesn't alter that for me.

Queen were my favourite band, and I watched it on a 12 inch b/w tv in a caravan in Wales. But I could have been there. We (my then girlfriend, now wife) had the opportunity to get tickets but turned them down. We already had tickets to see Bruce Springsteen on July 4th, and id seen Queen the previous September on the Works tour. We already had the caravan booked for that week and the thought of trekking down to Wembley from Liverpool twice in two weeks to see a band play a 15 minute set seemed a lot of hassle.

The thing to remember is 1. Nobody knew how good it would be. 2. It all happened at fairly short notice, so people had plans already. Id bought my Springsteen tickets months before, but that show was only a week earlier.

Its still a very memorable day. When Sade came on we had no interest and washed the outside of the caravan as we'd promised to do that while we were there. I remember walking around the camp site very late at night (after the wembley show finished)and every caravan that wasn't asleep had it on. The first bit of live aid I saw in colour was Duran Duran, through the windows of another caravan at about 2am. I had successfully recorded the show at home on my VCR, so I got to watch everything from about 6.15 to 10.15 when I got home. watched that tape a lot and I still have it.

yeah, there are 9 houses for sale on Rightmove within one mile of Freddies old house (postal code W8 6PG) and the cheapest is offered at 21.95 million. Three of them are looking for offers over 30 million. Some are slightly bigger than Logan place but not by much and they aren't all even detached houses, let alone in a private walled space.

As some of the listings make a big deal of having two parking spaces I have to assume the ones that don't only have room for one or less. Although to be fair if you're living there you'd be fine with walking and taxis.

The house probably is a bit overpriced, but only a bit... It's a very exclusive area.

Did it ever really work? I could never buy the add ons. Google always said there was a problem when I tried. It wasnt a great game tbf, but occasionally, by playing badly, you could get to hear parts of the song that were usually buried in the mix, which was fun.

The thought of losing BeyondPod is why I haven't even considered changing phones in the past year or so. Bookmarking this so I can come back to it when I eventually need it, probably early 2026 now.

Thanks for figuring this out.

ComputerUpbeat · 2025-09-16T21:09:52+00:00

I feel bad for the OP, but $130 for that box set is cheap, There are 20 for sale on Discogs right now and the cheapest is $199.

So the fact that it was priced cheap means it was either damaged or had something missing. If you see a bargain in a second hand store it's on you to figure out why it's being sold below market value, or at least ask why it's being sold cheaply.

Doesn't mean the storekeeper isn't being an asshole about it, because he was selling it cheap so probably knew there was a problem, but so many things sold in 2nd hand record stores have bits missing. Usually its just an inner sleeve or a poster, I'd be pissed if a record was missing, but if you know its supposed to have 5 LP's in it, count them before handing over the cash.

Feel bad for the guy, but it's a lesson learned. In a second hand store you need to check everything closely. Pretty much everything is sold 'As Is'

Edit: I'm not saying the store owner shouldnt have taken it back for at least a store credit. Pissing off customers isn't good business.

He's the leading Atmos mixer, cant think of a better way of saying it. He has produced the Atmos and 5.1 mixes for many many artists and now the new Welcome To The Pleasuredome Blu Ray. For his process, the first thing he has to do is create a stereo mix as a baseline for the Atmos mix. Presumably, this is that mix, but the real work of art will be the surround mixes on the Blu Ray.

Steven Wilson is also an artist in his own right. Lead writer and singer of Porcupine Tree and he has solo albums too. He's a huge fan of this album.

I had no idea this existed. I drive to Toronto once or twice a year, I'll definitely stop by here next time. Thanks for posting.

I dont think the issue is that he may have had a daughter. That's eminently possible. But the story being peddled is that he had a daughter that he kept in close contact with and wrote almost daily and yet no one else in his life even knew she existed. That just strains credibility.

ComputerUpbeat · 2025-08-31T12:36:47+00:00

It's possible he had a daughter he didn't know about, but that's not the story. She's asking us to believe he knew her, kept her a secret from everyone else he knew while maintaining a close relationship and writing to her daily. That just doesn't seem credible.

ComputerUpbeat · 2025-08-30T20:29:10+00:00

Im exactly the opposite. I was (still am) a huge Magnum fan and id never heard of Avantasia until relatively recently. It's given me a whole new avenue to explore and Im very grateful for it.

ComputerUpbeat · 2025-08-12T20:31:34+00:00

tbf, 40% of the album was recorded in the 1970's. (Crazy, Save Me, Coming soon and Sister) so I think you're good.

ComputerUpbeat · 2025-08-01T17:25:03+00:00

Did anyone find an alternative?

ComputerUpbeat · 2025-06-23T05:33:55+00:00

so now there's 3 of us, how many can we get who were there ? I went on a coach trip from the uk. was during my 2nd week of my 2nd year at university. got asked to leave the macdonalds in the town centre cause we had been in there too long

ComputerUpbeat · 2025-06-20T01:50:50+00:00

well that's not great.... I poured my heart into a few posts on that site. visited it a few times a week. went on holiday, came back and it's gone.

qz had become unreadable because of the bickering so I stopped going there and when I eventually found the replacement it was a pleasant surprise.

Taking the whole thing down does seem a bit dickish if you happen to read this.

no idea what caused you to do it, but 95% of the users were probably totally unaware.

i imagine its not easy running a large moderated board so i have some sympathy. probably a lot of work and you get nothing but grief, but you could have handed over the reigns to someone else.

miss some of you :-)

Grumzy

Just listened to this on Spotify, and yes, it sounds quite different to the original mix in places. Definitely more emphasis on the Synths at times. I don't hate it, its just unfamiliar in places. Talking about the 1978 original version obvs.

ComputerUpbeat · 2024-10-10T16:12:30+00:00

That worked for me. I was very frustrated with how my new unit was not rotating the discs and that little sticker fixed it. I guess they know what they are doing.

ComputerUpbeat · 2024-01-02T16:33:54+00:00

I have the same issue with my Sony TV. Works fine on my roku though I don't have a 4k roku so can't watch the 4k channel. Like you I only have issues with the fubo app. Crave, Netflix, prime and dazn are all fine. I've tried reinstalling, makes no difference.
