I'm working on some upgrades to the rig, and can't decide which of these BRD's should be the 1st.
I already know which SACD will be 1st, (WYWH, duh!) but really can not pick one of these concerts.

I like the opening medley/ montage of R30

But, S&A has 'The Trees' which I would love to hear in a HD format.

Finally, TM 2011 has La Villa Strangiato, again in HD format

So, if any of y'all have some insight into these 3 disc's please help me with this decision:confused:

TIA
I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    I haven't seen R30, but own both Snakes and Arrows and Time Machine on blu-ray. Between the two, it is actually really close, but I went with Time Machine for a few reasons:
    1-Geddy Lee's bass playing on Time Machine is exceptionally entertaining throughout. I especially like "Leave that Thing Alone".
    2-The opening of "La Villa Strangiato" is unbelievable. Same for the opening of Working Man, and I don't even like "Working Man" that much.
    3-Videos at beginning and intermission are funnier on Time Machine than they are on Snakes and Arrows.
    4-Moving Pictures all the way through is cooler than it sounds on paper. "The Camera Eye" is worth the cost of the blu-ray.
    5-Red Barchetta

    But really you should eventually add Snakes and Arrows, because it has some great great music on it. (probably R30 too, but I haven't viewed it.)
