Roger Waters
"Fire Ring the Arrow"
Arrow Rock Festival, Lichtenvoorde, Netherlands
10th June 2006 [Audience DVD]

It is a wonder that this DVD exists at all!. This was a "normal" performance without Nick Mason, but historical nice because it was performed during a full Moon and the security was insane there. It had been reported that because the security was very sharp, no complete recordings (video) were possible.

One trader said, "I sneaked my digi cam onto the festival, unfortunately after the first 10 minutes the security caught me and took away my tape. (of course I had other tapes with me) but the guys were very good trained to catch video tapers. I saw several cam's been taking away and one guy kept coming to my place every 10 minutes I didn't try again, for I was sure they would kick me off the field!"

This is a 2 camera mix with some footage being taken near the front of the stage, but mostly this is filmed from a distance to the left of the stage. However it must be a very good camera because the closeups are really good. The closeups are not quite as close as the Cork DVD, but with this Arrow Rock Festival there is very little of people getting in the way, though the guy filming from near the front was having difficulty getting clear shots. All in all considering the security this is an excellent recording with some special effects thrown in to add to the viewing pleasure.

Note: This DVD is best viewed on a small screen, as I found that playing this on a large screen, the picture is quite grainy. It looked great when played on my laptop, but the definition is lacking when played on a large TV.
