We saw them right after they started their tour. (That was the 4th time seeing them  .) They were great!
Believe this or not, they are also producing a 3 premium vinyl set. Who says vinyl and analog is dead!

Well,,,,,, we watched the show last night. My review:  .
Video - Camera shots were 3-4 seconds at the most. I thought I was going to get sea-sick. HD side of things, you almost don't get a chance to enjoy the HD experience as the camera shots change too fast.
Sound - Decent. But, as we noticed when we saw the group about 6 months ago right after they first started the US tour, every song was done a little faster than normal. I assume this was done to get all the BIG hits in during one concert.
We will probably watch again, but, not what we were hoping for.
Not sure I will purchase the vinyl version of this.

I don't have PF on BD, only on DVD, TS, and homemade HDDVD, which you're welcome to use.
Maybe you're thinking KB1&2 on Blu?

Is the homemade HD better than dvd? I don't have anything to run the ts files (htpc is not hooked-up).

No contest! homemade hd looks much better!
I am going to be tied up until after 4:00 today unless you want to stop by and make a quick trade. Otherwise, I'll swing by your place after my physical therapy  (OUCH!!!!). That should be around 4:00 to 4:30, I hope.

Sorry... I just checked my shelf... I never burned PF to HDDVD because the ts was too large for a single DL.
But I've been meaning to check to see if the PS3 can play .ts/mpeg2 from a USB/CF/SD, so let me search for the latest info.

No problem. You still want to borrow the Police BD?

Sure, I'd like to check it out.
I've got a stack of other BDs if you're still looking for weekend entertainment.
