Additional comments:
Home-made video-CD featuring the legendary last concert of the Brothers in Arms world tour 1985-1986. Very complete with intro, interview and donation,  image and sound quality is very nice! Can be played full-screen. Great calypso version of So far Away. Dire Straits are donating $ 50.000 for the anti-drug campaign in Australia. As the reporter says: "The way we thank a winner of our own is singing Waltzing Mathilda." And then the audience starts singing Waltzing Mathilda with the band playing along. The speech by Mark Knopfler really shows that he is tired of the long tour. Highly recommened! Available on two CD-R's.

Video-CD's can be played on DVD players or normal CD-ROM players using Windows Media Player. I can play this Video-CD on my external Sony DVD player (DVP-NS705V) without any problem. Note however that some DVD players have problems with Video-CD's. So I can only guarantee that they work on your PC CD-ROM drive!
