if it has the slow version of Stars, then it’s one of the RS showcases.
I have the one from Barcelona, where I was, on video

The image quality of the Room Service Tour DVD is simply AWFUL. Too pixelated.

I don’t know what about the quality of image & sound on the Room Service DVD.But i was in the concert of the Stockholm,Globe and it WAS ONE OF THE BEST!!!For me,the whole Room Service tour was the best tour they ever made!!!I don’t understand how some people say its was weak,surely they weren’t in any of the shows!!

I am with those who think it was the weakest tour. You can’t say it was the best they have done. When I watch the show in Johannesburg 1995, any show of the RS Tour looks smaller than a pea!

@Room Service
What about the freezing during watching this dvd? Do you have it? I mean this freezing is almost unseen, but it‘s not so smooth watching either. I‘ve seen some files from vcd and I wonder if there is the same problem on dvd as well. Is it?

MMM would still like to get my hands on the official promo of the RS showcase... I have actually seen it at a local TV stations’ library but couldn’t convince anyone to sell it to me?!?! Bleh!

Hey yep its the showcase one in Barcelona !!
it does have its odd moments of “glitches” but i have that with satellite tv anyway now and again...so no difference...the quality is almost perfect considering!!!!!
no complaints from me when I get to watch them on stage over and over again with some cool camera work, singing some good old favourites thrown in with the RS songs !!!
They rock!!!!!!!
I just love them so much - the STARS song is just on repeat at the moment!!!!

??
How many shows from the RS Tour did you watch?
Once again: I was in 3 of them,and they were AMAZING!!!!The audience was really exciting,taking care they were mostly swedish peolple!
No one who was in person on one of the RS Tour shows, can say it was weak!! NO-ONE!!!!
Do ya?

I’m pretty sure those “DVDs” are just bootlegged DVD-R’s, which is supposed to be illegal on Ebay. Jeez I could make a fortune if I started copying and selling all my Rox video material.
I went to 12 Room Service shows, I didn’t think it was weak at all. I had a blast!

I also think the tour wasn’t up to my expectations, I went to two shows and I wasn’t THAT impressed as I had been before (CBB or the showcase in Barcelona, which was 1000 times better), and when you compare it to Marie’s Äntligen or Per/GT latest tours, you can clearly see where the inspiration and motivation is gone. Maybe the show was too produced, or it went along with the album.. to me recorded just because it had to be recorded..

at least some people have had the chance to see them.i cant afford to travel to europe to see them play but even if they did one show over in the U.K i would walk just to see them.....honest

You CAN’T compare Marie Antligen tour or GT Tour with Roxette!!!Very diff things!!
And a showcase,obviously is very diff too!A show case is much smaller!Almost face to face,a few fans 500 or less,very intim,something totally different!You know...

It is actually 1hr TV show recorded from the TV on to a DVD-R.
