The only thing that comes to mind is the obvious, youtube. There aint any official stuff out so your best bets are the above and youtube.

Just watched that video from the london calling thing and it's class, with a better crowd it would have been an immense gig! Good vocals and that!
Otherwise, yeah youtube!
It would be a class idea though wouldn't it! A DVD full of the courteeners! Like 2 hours of them! I'd buy it haha xx

Arctic monkeys just did a DVD and I heard that because of this the courteeners didn't release one at the same time otherwise they would have. I think they will do soon though, from the second album tour quite probably.

I'm afraid it's down to the selfish labels not letting them record


Here's the email they sent out:

Dear Fabchannel viewer,
After nine passionate and beautiful years of sharing the most amazing concert recordings with you, Fabchannel is stopping. A great number of record labels still won't allow us to record their artists. This prevents us from offering what we need to keep Fabchannel alive.

We want to sincerely thank you for all support through the years! It has been an amazing time, but unfortunately this is where it ends.
With a bleeding heart we're pulling the plug of our online archive Friday 13th of March. Until that time, enjoy your favorite concerts and who knows… we'll meet again.

Justin Kniest, CEO

Always top quality video & it's a shame that we'll no longer get that kind a covergae of the London Calling Festival - So many British bands play there as well

Got me thinking though... I've never released a S&C Courteeners DVD!

record labels always take the enjoyment out of things
what serious harm is showing some top gigs on a website?

what a great idea
could combine the vids from bbc of them playing glasto and whatever else there is out there
i would defiantly buy it

Shows, most labels have no care for the music, usually the big ones, whereas the smaller independent labels tend to care more about the product. Shame it will always be this way.

fcuk official garbage anyway! I mean..cool to have better quality an all, however there isnt any out now and wont be one for a while. So Im talking boots. Maybe songs from 3 diffrent shows, couple of Tv spots, special app's etc etc. 1-2hrs long.
Im out in L.A. we have NOTHING on the 'teeners out here. I had to search hell and high water for St. Jude deluxe edition.

[sirmavers]

Aaaah, nice stuff, I've not known of it before now, good that there is like a full set on youtube, usually just bits and bats.
