Porcupine Tree ‘Octane Twisted’ 2CD/DVD to be released November 5th
Kscope have just announced on the twenty ninth edition of their post-progressive podcast that Porcupine Tree will be releasing ‘Octane Twisted’ a 2CD/DVD set on November 5th. The audio and video will be taken from the band’s show on 2nd May 2010 at the Riviera Theater, Chicago, which was one of the many shows on the tour in which ‘The Incident’ was performed in it’s entirety. More details are coming soon!

#2 written by RyanLavin90 9 months agoThis one seems odd, maybe because it’s so out of the blue. I too would love to see a Blu-ray release, not sure if i’ll settle for a DVD purely because most of my collection is in the newer format as it’s like “Who even uses VHS anymore?”
Having said that, I would probably end up making the exception as it is Porcupine Tree after all and I loved the live presentation of The Incident when I went out ot see it…but that was 2009 so again, why the wait?

#5 written by CrescendoOfPeace 8 months agoAt this point, since during the tour he said The Incident wouldn’t be released in a live video edition at all, I’m grateful that there is even a DVD. I think if interest is great enough they will eventually come out with a BlueRay edition, but if not, so be it.
It was an exceptional tour – we saw them five times, which I’ve never done with ANY artist – and I’d go see it again tomorrow if I could. I am a bit sorry nothing was filmed at the Tampa Theatre, as it is such a gorgeous venue, but I guess my memories of that evening will have to suffice.
For now I can’t wait to get my Special Edition copy of Get All You Deserve – phenomenal concert as well. We got a special kick out of meeting Jordan Rudess in the audience as well – we had our photos taken with him but, unfortunately, never received copies of the files.
I would love to see the Radio City Music Hall show released on video – preferably BlueRay – as well. I know the setlist for Radio City and Royal Albert were similar, but not exactly the same.
I didn’t make it to Royal Albert, but I did wind up with a t-shirt – does that count?

#6 written by Malcolm 8 months agoI too would like a visual record of the RAH event but having seen the Incident performed in its entirety not only at the RAH but also at the Apollo London, and in Bristol and Wolverhampton (plus a RAH warm-up in Dublin) a DVD would be amazing. But before I get too carried away in anticipation, is “the story” of this release actually true? I understood that PT performed at the Riviera Theatre Chicago on the 30th April and at The Fillmore Detroit on the 2nd May… a slight discrepancy. And given the lack of chatter or promotion I’m starting to think it’s all just wishful thinking.
There must be a tremendous amount of DAT recording material from The Incident tour and indeed previous tours. When do you think SW/PT will go down the same route as Robert Fripp and DGM and release archive material via an on-line library? The release of FOABP concert in Atlanta was a good precedent of this and I feel sure some lucky sausage would enjoy rooting through archive recordings processing them for purchased download.
