Spectacle season 3

Post by And No Coffee Table »

Some news is buried in an interview linked in another thread.
However, while we can expect to see Elvis gigging for some time to come, we won’t be seeing him hosting his TV show in the UK.

He launched the Spectacle programme in the States in 2008, in which he interviewed other musicians about their music, and also duetted with them.

Guests included Bruce Springsteen, Elton John, the Police and Bill Clinton, but the programme re-appearing in the UK seems unlikely.

Season Three is presently being planned. Unfortunately, it does not seem destined for Scottish or English screens. This is due to, as they used to say, “circumstances beyond our control.”

This is great news!
I can't believe UK hasn't bothered with Season 2 yet. So sad.

If this is true, one would expect to see a DVD/Blu-Ray of the second season around the time the third season is due to air. Sounds like this is still a ways off, though.

Was about the same time last year that Season 2 was talked about - perhaps a similar schedule

Hope to make it back to the Apollo

Any chance the AT, RT, Nick L and Levon episode is in that dime future????

Funny you should ask....I have that ep recorded on DVD. Unfortunately the audio is not lossless, and therefore the audio alone cannot be up'd on Dime. I can upload the video, but do not know how to edit video, so it would be complete with commercial breaks (not too many though). I did get permission from the mods at Dime to use the Levon clips, because he doesn't sing or speak (voice is gone), and "The Weight" does not have his name as the songwriter.

I'll post the video, if you like, then you can rip the audio to mp3 or wave. The audio quality, despite lossy, is excellent.

Thoughts?

docinwestchester, I'd appreciate it any way that might work.

I was at the taping and it was the BEST musical night I've ever been to

The edited show was great but didn't do justice to the entire night. I have great hopes for the DVD

Thanks

Overnight, I learned how to edit video! So I'll be uploading the ep on DVD this weekend.
