Wembley Video
May 31st, 2008 by jeremy
Good morning everyone. Recovering after a late night and an incredible concert at Wembley Arena. That placed rocked! Seriously, all the Osmonds were excited for an amazing experience back and Wembley and they put on a great show.
I was tasked with videoing the concert for the PPV release on Donny.com, so this was a whole new night for me. The video turned out well (I think) and will be different than what a lot of people might expect. Rather than sitting on a tripod in the back of the theater the entire show, I decided to take the camera all around the venue and get a much more personal view of things. At times this made for some shaky video as I bumped my way through the crowd and ran to new locations, but hopefully everyone will enjoy the intimate view they get of the show. Watch for the end where I get right up on the stage with the Osmonds!
I am editing the video now to match up the audio taken directly from the concert mixing board (rather than what my camera picks up) for the best quality sound.
Jeremy,
Thank you so much for these wonderful pictures - I can’t wait for your book to come out.
Can you tell me if this video will eventually be released to purchase as a DVD once the Pay Per View release is over?
Very many thanks.

Can’t wait to see the video!
Wow, Jeremy, this sounds great!! Hey, we’ll take a little shaky video for you to get all the good stuff!
So were you wearing ear plugs this time?! LOL
Looking forward to seeing this - sounds like the tour has been amazing!

Thanks so much for the updates. I have just returned home to Cheshire after attending the Wembley concert last night and it was unbelievable. I went to the MEN concert last Saturday and had such a great time, I managed to get great tickets for yesterday’s show. It was very emotional at the end and tears welled up in my eyes when I saw Alan, Merrill and Donny had tears in their eyes (could have been remnants of their colds, but I don’t think so, lol!!). It brought home to me that this is the last time we will see them altogether but also it reafirmed what a great family they are and what great times we have had with them over the years.
I listed to Donny and Marie’s recording on Radio 2 this morning and Donny mentioned that he is kicking himself for not organising a DVD of the Wembley or O2 concert. Please try and convince him to release the video stream that is available from tomorrow onto a DVD (otherwise he might find a number of people will be kicking him instead, only joking !)
Thank you for your fantastic photos and I cannot wait to order the book. Have a great time in Australia and Asia.
Love

Hi Jeremy Just want to say a masive WELL DONE and thanks for all of the wonderful photographs and writeups that you have posted so far . Really looking forward to the video…….and also the book Keep up the good work . Sue x
Hi Jeremy
Please please please release your concert footage onto a DVD once the pay per view is over, everyone from the concert will want to buy this. You are so lucky to spend so much time with DONNY, i am so jealous as I didn’t even get to have my photo taken with him. I did the VIP platinum experience which was awesome but would of loved just one photo taken with Donny, he is so LUSH. Your photos are fab

Hi Jeremy. I just want to thank you for the fantastic photos you took of the Osmonds in concert in the UK, real quality pics if I may say so.
I am unable to watch the PPV (my computer jsut couldn’t cope, the signal we get is so feeble) so please, from me too, please can you release it as a DVD (say for christmas 08)
Thanks

Hi Jeremy, Thank you so much for the wonder pictures that you have taken. I have seen some of the concert we attened on the 31st at Wembley.
My son Benjamin unfortunately had a couple of seizures and had to be taken out after about 10 minutes - i remember a camera around or near us and thank you if it was you that lovingly avoided us. thank you if it was you or can you pass on our thanks.
He wants to watch the PPV but is scared in case he seizes and misses it again. So a DVD would be brilliant.
The photos and memories will live with me for as long as i will remember. For your time and especially your talent.
