Storytellers

seagull · 16 Apr 2003, 17:28

Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the VH1 Storytellers tv show? I can't seem to track it down either on VHS or DVD here in the UK.

If anyone has a copy they are considering selling, I would be very interested.

Many thanks

Is it out of print? If not you can always try amazon.co.uk. If it is, you can usually find one on ebay most of the time, and most ebay sellers have no problem shipping to the UK. In fact, just in the last week I've shipped from the US to Canada, the UK and Singapore.
The Storytellers DVD is great- I watch it several times a month.

Disregard my message about ebay, it IS in print and you can buy it new from Amazon (US). The link for it is:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...573197-1983833

It is outstanding, and they can mail it to the UK. I just ordered the CHSIB CD off of Amazon UK, it should work just fine for you do order from the US.

If you are fortunate enough to be seeing Meat in concert, you may also be able to pick up a copy at the concert. That's where I got my copy, at a Florida concert in December. In fact, they are sold complete with autograph, for about $5.00 more than on Amazon.

AFAIK, the Storytellers DVD is region 1 only.
You might not be able to watch it using a DVD player manufactured for Europe.

sherrie87 · 16 Apr 2003, 19:18

Thanks R, I hadn't thought of that at all!

Sherrie

mariella · 16 Apr 2003, 19:22

Know all about region 1, yes. Had to buy another dvd-player! My son was very happy when he got the 'old' one.
Now we are both happy

Tim · 16 Apr 2003, 19:22

Most DVD players you can make region free, just ask the shop were you bought it!!

Do have 2 vcd's, but no storytellers, sorry for that

ChrisBelfast · 17 Apr 2003, 00:15

the last time i checked hmv's meat loaf stuff they had the DVD - www.hmv.co.uk

seagull · 17 Apr 2003, 08:33

Thanks everyone -i'll have a look around.

Tim - what VCD's do you have?

TeamNZfan · 11 May 2003, 02:24

I have only just received my copy of the DVD and the CD of Storytellers direct from the US (they are unavaliable in NZ). I can highly reccommend them both (af few different tracks on each).

Meat and the band sound awersome.

Now I am thinking about e-bay and trying to decide if I should bid for some of the videos out ...... Apart from BOOH video Hits, are there any other videos/dvds (of music) avaiable new? Have check AMAZON and they don't have any other than these 2?

Shane · 11 May 2003, 04:38

Other videos that I know of:

Bat Out Of Hell 2 Picture Show (with live performances and promo videos)
Bad Attitude Live
Meat Loaf Live

You might have to go to EBay for these.

Testify · 27 May 2003, 12:18

You can ask HMV to import it using HMV DIRECT

all you need is the CAT NO. BEYB578089DVD

You ring up on 08705 334578

Think you pay over the phone and they deliver to your door.

Thats what im gonna do. cos from the snippets i saw on CHSIB (bonus disc) then i want it!!

sherrie87 · 27 May 2003, 15:54

Testify,

You MUST order it- if you don't have Storytellers you are missing (IMHO) the best taped ML performance available. I watch it a couple times a week, I even work out to it. It is outstanding, to say the least.

Sherrie

Testify · 27 May 2003, 15:57

i intend to dont you worry!!

badger · 28 May 2003, 23:14

Yup, a very good buy

Asha · 29 May 2003, 04:36

Mine's in the mail, expecting it in another 14 days, can't wait

Asha

sherrie87 · 29 May 2003, 04:44

Asha,

You are gonna love it! Even though I have seen it many, many times I still find something new each time. It really makes me wish that I hadn't missed the Storytellers tour when it came through my town- what was I thinking??? (Actually I was thinking that I had a 3 year old son at the time, a full time job and full time university load- there was no $$!) Ack, I should have pawned something- I would do anything to have just one more ML concert in my memory!

Sherrie

Asha · 29 May 2003, 04:47

I'm sorry that you missed it Sherrie.

I can hardly wait to get the DVD, sure hope it's as good as everybody keeps telling me (eventhough I'm sure of it

)

Asha

Testify · 29 May 2003, 20:50

i still havent had a chance to order it, hopin to do it tomorrow mornin.

coupe-de-ville · 29 May 2003, 21:20

This Storytellers vid sounds like a must have. When was it recorded, I guess its quite recent. Love the BOOH on the CHSIB cd - compared it to the ML Live from Wembley '87 version and from the sound of his voice it doesn't sound as old as that.

Testify · 29 May 2003, 21:36

i dont understand y is wasnt put in uk!!??

Asha · 30 May 2003, 15:51

There's a Storytellers DVD and CD...
I ordered mine from Amazon, it wasn't in any of the shops here where I live (Groningen, Holland) and nobody could order it for me. So I ordered it from the USA...

Takes a while to get here though....

Asha

sherrie87 · 30 May 2003, 17:15

Coupe-de-ville,

The copyright date on the back of my DVD says 1999, but I bet there are a number of folks here who could give you the exact date right off the top of their head- as a matter of a fact I think a person or two here was at the taping. (Lucky sods!)

Sherrie

coupe-de-ville · 30 May 2003, 22:34

Thanks Sherrie.
And your right - lucky sods

Cheers
