jengd Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I agree with lots being said here, I will never understand how Warner's don't seem to see the appetite for live footage from this widely recognised, excellent live band and I think it would keep the excitement up for the tour. They would only need to spend 10 minutes on YouTube to see how many, really poor quality videos there are out there but getting views. I understand it's expensive to film live and am sure there must be lots of niceities around promo that I know nothing about but it seems like a no-brainer in this age of social media. Some behind the scenes footage too would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yosuke Hanamura Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 1 hour ago, MilleniumFan said: Ok, the next upcoming festivals with possible pro-shot footage are the partner festivals Southside and Hurricane. I would advise that nobody gets their hopes up too much, because we didn't get much out of PinkPop and we might get even less out of these festivals... However, here is what is confirmed so far: Both festivals will have a livestream on their respective websites (both video and radio). Additionally, French TV channel ARTE have confirmed that they'll be broadcasting quite a lot from Hurricane and select concerts from Southside. So, we'll have to see. Maybe we'll get to see some Green Day, probably not though. The last time Green Day was live on German TV for a concert/festival performance, was for Rock Am Ring 2013 and there they confirmed Green Day a few days before the actual performance, something that hasn't happened here yet... It's possible that we might get a lot. Remember Rock am Ring 2005? We got a full webcast of Green day's set, plus VH2, and MTV broadcast highlights from their set, similarly with Lollapalooza 2010, Highlights on Palladia, TeenNick, as well as some Webcast Highlights. Green Day gets quite a lot of PRO footage when combining TV broadcasts, and webcasts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillenniumFan Posted June 22, 2017 Author Share Posted June 22, 2017 Yes, but notice it was Rock Am Ring, a festival that's so much much much more well known than both Hurricane and Southside put together. So, it's a festival where even large bands will give permission for a broadcast, because they think it's adequate for promotion (which in my opinion both Southside and Hurricane would be as well, especially with Green Day being as good as they are now. But they would disagree with me of course, because they seemed to have failed Promotion 101 Class sigh...). Anyway, I so desperately hope I'm wrong... But I have already written to Green Day, as well as the band members about this, I don't really know what more there is one can do tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking (i.e. hoping for) the same. Yes they're better than ever and it's easy to imagine they'd rather capture that on something they can sell at a later date, than something that will end up on the internet and perhaps to some degree keep people from actually attending the shows as they're happening (especially considering how it doesn't seem like they're selling out every single venue atm). I get that people are eager for shiny live footage (I am myself), and more social media activity and short clips of some sort would definitely benefit them greatly promo-wise, but I'm not sure how essentially giving away whole shows for free would make sense financially (again - especially if there's a live release in the pipeline).

Meliciraptor Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 No stream from Hurricane this year! This local news site is reporting that the usual mediapartners 3Sat and Arte aren't collaborating with them this year. This was confirmed by the organizer FKP Scorpio. https://www.kreiszeitung.de/events/hurricane-festival-2017-ere733127/hurricane-festival-arte-3sat-verzichten-livestream-tv-berichte-scheessel-8417879.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So maybe......

MillenniumFan Posted June 22, 2017 Author Share Posted June 22, 2017 Damn, well that only leaves Southside on Saturday then. So far, only bands until 21:00 are confirmed... It seems the PinkPop tragedy will repeat itself Southside will be streamed by ARTE, DASDING and on the website... By the way, did you guys see that Green Day reposted the two videos on Aimiee Smith's channel from PinkPop on their ''News'' section? http://www.greenday.com/news/green-day-pinkpop-2017-live-50031 Seems there are some people that might think that some live footage might actually be a good idea for promotion.

One can only hope... That's actually hilarious. They hardly let anyone stream the shows, and when fans make an effort to make stuff widely available they "steal" it to use for promo purposes Surely they could easily request that footage from Pinkpop and put it on their own channel.

MillenniumFan Posted June 22, 2017 Author Share Posted June 22, 2017 Yeah and they also use it to make their tour promos. In the last one there's footage from Nova Rock and other festivals, so they have access to that footage. The trailer is pretty bad though...

But it says that other artists will be announced soon. Maybe there's some hope left. @MilleniumFan I got pretty excited to see that they used Nova Rock footage. Though the trailer is indeed very bad, maybe this footage will see the light of day later... you never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
