Legendary guitarist Steve Vai has announced the release of the concert film '
Where the Wild Things Are' on Blu-ray on September 29, day-and-date with the DVD and CD. This was recorded before a sold-out audience at the State Theatre in Minneapolis, in 2007 during Vai's
Sound Theories world tour. No release details are available at this time.
Vai is enthusiastic about music BDs. He has said, "I know that there are relatively few rock concerts released on Blu-ray at this time but I believe that the medium, or at least the 1080p quality, will become very popular. After watching this on Blu-ray, hearing the 5.1 mix and seeing the brilliant colors just popping off the screen, regular DVD seems very lackluster."
