Does anybody know if there are lossless versions of Variation I, II & III available anywhere?

It seems that these were only released on the Live in Your Living Room DVD, which is 448kbps AC3 lossy format. Sure, there's probably little difference with real lossless, but still :P. Would have been ...

Being an audio dummie, I'm just curious. How do you notice/confirm/know such a thing?

I would guess that June 15th is not just a regular concert date, since he already mentioned new concert dates in the tweet before that:

I'm bummed too...

It seems I'm not the only one who cares about his ear drums though...
However, I have never heard such a loud electronic concert. Those who sat in the front rows, did well to use ear plugs.
Mmm... :?

I really have ...

Not great quality, but they're longer than the other videos so far.

I loved the laser show last year, so ... I'm hoping it's a combination. Projections are 2-dimensional. Lasers are 3-dimensional. I loved how you could 'touch' them in a way.
Don't take me wrong, I'm glad there are projections! Just hoping for a really nice combination .

I hope there were more lasers than just the couple ones in the last picture
