My bad though you are right.

51st state my arse! Don't make us come back down there!

Incidentally, I had always thought it was a church in Vancouver as well, which I thought odd, since they are local to Toronto and the Church of the Holy Trinity is a landmark site. I walk past it every day. I'll add that to my trivia banks!

[EDIT] Decided to take a couple of shots while on my smoke break to test out the camera on my Blackberry. They are decidedly (and expectedly) terrible:

I don't get it. The DVD stereo tracks are at 24/96 aren't they? Or do you mean the original release from the 80s? That was done on a portable DAT, so it was only 16/48.

Maybe but this is what it says on the back of the package:

"This program was originally filimed in high definition video at 23.976 frames per second and 1080 lines of resolution. The music was recorded at 96 khz and 24 bit high resolution audio. It has been down converted for standard definition 16:9 anamorphic widescreen with PCM stereo and Dolby 5.1 surround audio using state of the art conversion technology for an optimized listening and viewing experience."

That leads me to believe that both the audio and video were down converted from HD. Maybe someone with more knowledge can weigh in on this?

natalie's not that bad compared to margot timmons is one of the most enchanting voices I've ever heard. It's a travesty they brought people in for the remake.

The original Trinity Sessions is a long time favorite of me, and so I bought the Revisited as soon as it came out.
Hmm, I love the DVD, nice atmosphere, but I do not like the music as much as the original.
I can live with Merchant and Adams, though they do not eally add ot the original, but the way that horrible Vic Chestnut butchers f.i. my favorite song Blue Moon..., really terrible, the man can't sing at all.

I bought Revisited the other night at a concert. I agree with the Vic Chestnut comment. I don't like him at all. The rest is OK. I prefer the original.
