I don't know, but it sounds like time to fire up the D-VHS.

According to what I read last summer when this show was announced, it will be in 16x9, but as you know, that may have changed.

Here is a link for more info on the show:

The many live shows I have attended/will attend on this tour are done in 150' X 100' format via the huge stage :D

I just went to their web site and looked at their schedule grid. The grid for HBO-HD has a special "TRUE HD" logo near shows that are real HDTV. Unfortunatly, there is no logo near this concert. :(

Hey ... that`s ok !

At least we are going to be able to see "The Boys" live from our own living rooms :)

Next to being at a live concert, a live televised one will be GREAT !

Warning Also: To any prudish people here who might like to watch, parts of the show is and will be rated "R"
