beatlesrock:
His right hand doesn't look right without his ring, though.
I agree!!! He does have the ring on in the 2000 photos. I imagine there is a special story behind it. This DVD would be worth the trouble to find: http://www.amazon.fr/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/dvd/B00004Y8AS/pictures/4/171-7345204-3211451#more-pictures

Didn't realize that I'd been missed! Thanks for the "welcome back." Yes, OH Darling....next year it is for the Landmine Dinner. Now....where do I come up with $500 for my ticket??? Oh yeah....that means airfare and hotel and car money too. Maybe I just better plan to move out there this summer! Want to hear something funny? My older son's middle name is Thomas. How's that for ironic? And Brian looks good in anything!!!

Too true. Anyone seen any pictures of the band from the AAM Benefit Concert? I've only seen ones of Paul and Heather.

Got the Back In The US dvd today. It's great. Brian is just so humble and seems so happy. I laughed my head off at the 'jumping' bit in Live and Let Die. Rusty is lovely too. Actually, they're all lovely.

I am so brand new to all of this, but I'm thrilled to be able to post a message about watching the A&E Red Square special, and falling madly in love with the magic that is Brian Ray...He's captivating....a cross between a sweet, laid-back California surfer-boy and a hard-driving rocker with a million-dollar smile! WOW!! I live in Las Vegas, so he's been fairly close to me (LA guitarist, so I hear) all this time and I didn't know it! Oh, ladies, he is a find! Look forward to knowing more about this talented, gorgeous blond rock and roll Adonis in weeks to come! Since I'm new, I really look forward to hearing from everyone as well...Thanks!...Christy C.

Beatlesrock, that's great news. Don't you just love it! I hope there is a DVD for the European shows for the different set list including "She's leaving home", "Birthday", and "Calico Skies" and for more of the band. I haven't seen additional photos from the AAM benefit yet. The AAM website still has last years photos so I hope it will be updated soon.

Christy, welcome!! We all agree and would love to find out more about Brian but he is quite the mystery.

OH! Darling:
Beatlesrock, that's great news. Don't you just love it! I hope there is a DVD for the European shows for the different set list including "She's leaving home", "Birthday", and "Calico Skies" and for more of the band. quote] In the Uk, an hour back in the world special was screened and I always assumed that was edited from the back in the us dvd, but I was wrong because that had She's Leaving Home and Let 'Em In (in Japan) on it. There was also footage of Paul having a Japanese meal and doing a dance with Abe - really funny! Not sure where those recordings came from. I'd love to see Birthday - Brian on tambourine!!!!!!!!! There should be more of the Band on the dvd.

There are two DVD's...BITUS and BITWORLD. I believe the UK TV special was from the BITW DVD which was actually shot during the 2nd leg of the USA shows, Mexico & Japan in 2002. Confusing, isn't it? I'm not sure of all the differences but it would be worth a look to compare. "Birthday" was played during the Red Square TV Special but alas...no close up of Brian on tambourine. I believe he also played tambourine during the begining of "Hey Jude". I hope you get a chance to see this footage soon! The Russian stories were moving and the band footage was better than BITU.

I've already got the cd but I wasn't sure if there was a dvd. I'll have to keep an eye out for that - thanks for the info. In his msn chat, Paul implied the Russian show would eventually be on dvd - how many dvds can he get out of this tour??!! Still - it's worth if if there's more band footage.
-
Oh, you know you're right....there is a BITW CD and not a DVD. I guess I was wishful thinking. Sorry...guess I was having a blonde moment. ops:

In the 'Met McCartney On Tour' thread in this forum, fans-on-the-run has provided this link: http://home.comcast.net/~celebrities909/fellowfans.html There's picture of Brian's autograph. I think his is the second one down.

A short story: http://www.maverick-music.com/events.asp I'm struggling to find new stuff guys - anyone else had any luck?
-
This was new to me: http://pub49.ezboard.com/fmiamivicefanforumsfrm5.showMessage?topicID=7.topic and on the same topic: http://www.frank-williams.net/vice/episodes/ep010.htm Beatlesrock, did they have this show in the UK back in the 80's? This is the only new info that I could find. Do we know if the band is currently in the UK working on the new CD?
-
But is this our Brian Ray or is this the "other" Brian Ray?

Hi, Oh! Darling. An interesting snippet you've found there. But, YoungGerl raises a good point too because artists direct have got the Brian Rays muddled before - it could have happened again. If it's a religious based song I'd think it was the other one because he write religious songs for his wife, Crystal Lewis. However, there's also music by Etta James at the second link you provided which makes me think it could be our Brian because he was associated with her for a number of years. I know the songs weren't co-written but it's a coincidence. I shall investigate further. The show was on here in the early 80s and I've a feeling it was recently repeated but I've never watched it. I'm pretty sure the band are in the UK. I was sent a Rusty interview from Corinne (his PR) and in that, he says that they would be recording at Abbey Road this Autumn. Plus, Paul seems to spending most of his time in London at the moment. I read somewhere that they'd be taking a break over Christmas, probably after the birth of the macca baby and then continuing in the new year. Take care and I'll report back soon!

Well - I've found this: http://www.miami-vice.org/episode/episode.asp?season=1&episode=10 but the crucial evidence is missing - no picture and no 'LISTEN' (actually, I'm not sure I'd know his solo voice anyway). Darn - I'll keep looking

I got distracted and ended up looking at Mylene Farmer web pages. There's no great pics of Brian - he's always in the shadows or too blurry. This is the best one if you can be bothered to follow these rather poor instructions (once you've clicked on the link, click on the underlined phrases at the bottom and then enter the site on the next page. The click on 'gallerie photos' and then 'les concerts' on the following page. Select '21 photos disponibles' and go to the bottom and select the next page. It's the second one on top) and Abe's in it too: http://membres.lycos.fr/renest/ If you look at some of Mylene's fan pages, there are some very scantily clad women on stage - not sure I like that very much!!!!!!! The whole of Mylene's show makes the Paul preshow look quite tame.
