The Unofficial Video

Did you miss "Eardrum Buzz" on MTV's 120 Minutes? Have you ever wanted to see the legendary Rockpalast show?

Well look no further! A professionally mastered collection of Wire-related video material has been compiled. The total running time is about 3 hours. The track listing is given below.

If you wish to purchase this, then email me at qwerty@cmu.edu or use the comments form (and be sure to include your correct email address!). I'll forward your message to the person who made this video (not me), who will reply with the purchasing information, and then you can decide whether or not to get it.

There is also an NTSC-only 2nd generation copy release of the video, available only in the USA and Canada. The cost is slightly less, but it is a 2nd generation copy. Let me know whether you are interested in this or the original.

Let me emphasize that this tape is not being sold for profit, but that there is some expense because of the mastering. But the good news is that you will not find a better quality tape anywhere else.
