The 122-minute disc includes a full live show recorded in London earlier this year, as well as a complete videography, which includes the complete 'Trilogy' series, created for the band's download singles. A tour documentary completes the package.

The DVD's title is derived from a lyric from the band's hit 'She Drove Me To Daytime Television'.

Funeral For A Friend headline the Radio 1 stage at this year's Carling Weekend Reading and Leeds festivals.

Spot the 'deliberate' mistake

Read tha this morning. Wonder of there wil be any Aberdeen Footage.

[Johnny Mac]

Jesus.... a DVD already.

Talk about milking it for all it's worth.

[psydoll]

Might well be some Aberdeen footage but I don't actively recall anyone filming the gigs but then it's a while ago and drink was involved innit?

I think it's a pretty good idea really - a wee Welsh band have built themselves into a position of influencing loads of new bands [for better or worse ] and they seem to have a sense of humour which always aids these types of DVDs for the better

Having said that I think I'll wait until the library is lending it out to see it.

pfft funeral get a dvd but Brand New have still to release a dvd.

[Stephen]

yes and?
f4af are miles the bigger band

[Ross]

Quite funny really...

Funeral were the great british Underground band.... loved by almost everyone that heard their first EP.... And now barely anyone who championed them at the start wants to admit to listening to them.

It`s like the Lost Prophets..... Sounded like a cross between Duran Duran and Faith No More but both have produced good underground albums / EPs.... What has followed is still poppy but it does bring the "underground scene" into the spot light and if one of those kids buys a FNM album or gets into The Haunted or whatever then surely it`s worth it.

The Public are Fickle......

"The DVD's title is derived from a lyric from the band's hit 'She Drove Me To Daytime Television'."

band's hit
band shit?

[Camie]

Well I dont like f4af. I did like Juno(the old version with the original band members) but the new version just sounded more bland. Ive heard a lot of the album and think it is quite boring.
I think I may like the older stuff but I definately dont like the album.

[Stephen]

camie a) just cos you dont like them does that mean they shouldnt releasea dvd? b) look at ross'above post
