The Joys of Finding Blank DVDs

So as I stated recently, we're moving. I have been going through old DVDs with no labels on them trying to figure out what's salvageable and what is trash. This is what I came across, among other things:

Prince - Live at the 02 Arena (not sure what night, but the setlist started with "Planet Earth" and then "1999"). I run a Glam Scans group on Flickr. I know these scans are in there. I'll just have to dig for them and find the one w/ this setlist. Nice find though!

Also found a DVD packed with folders of bootleg stuff. Not sure why I'd make a DVD of audio files, opposed to just saving them on my main music hosting computer, but here are the folders I found:

Lovesexy Tour
-Feb 1.89 Sendai
-Feb 7.89 Nagoya 1
-Feb 7.89 Nagoya 2
-Feb 12.89 Osaka 1
-Feb 12.89 Osaka 2

I'm still confused as to why I'd burn a DVD with this random stuff on it, or even when. Good find, nonetheless.

What a cool ( but random) find. I did the same when my PC was on it's way out the other year. Found the Dvd's ages later. It was like finding a little Prince time capsule smile

I also found a DVD I was making of Janet Jackson appearances in 2008. It had Good Morning America - "Feedback", "That's The Way Love Goes", and part of "Rock With U", as well as her appearance on TRL. I finalized the disk and stored it.

Is your 02 show audio or film?
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

What a cool find!I love finding stuff you thought may have gone. Think the place and date on that 'Still waiting' might be 'Monroe, Louisiana 25 February 1982'. It was only a quick search i did thow, so it could be wrong smile

Just looking at the ones requiring info :

The o2 DVD seems to 25th August 2007 ("Funky London")

Montreux Jazz Festival Aftershow is only 4 tracks, so you have the whole thing.

Nudity (Disc 2) - Nude Tour Rehearsal, 24th April 1990.

One Nite Alone Apollo London - could be any of the 3 shows, but the best quality (and most frequently appearing one) is the 3rd October 2002 opening night show.

Stockholm 1986 - has to be the soundboard 22nd August show (although there is also a decent audience recording).

This Is What We Do 2 Have Fun - 2 Gold Experience Tour Aftershows from Paradiso, Amsterdam 26th & 27th (am) March 1995.

Still Waiting - Controversy Tour, Monroe 25th February 1982.

The Ultimate Wild Experience - Gold Experience Tour - Brabanthallen, Den Bosch 25th March 1995.

Utrecht - could be either one of the 1987 shows, or the 1998 show. Both circulate with the same simple "Utrecht" title.

Varsity Blues - Purple Rain Invitation-Only Show, Texas Southern University, Houston 16th January 1985.
