That sounds great, I wonder if we can download this as it streams- would be amazing to have a pro-shot Pulp concert from this era to watch over and over!

 you could try this...

VLC Media Player

Free; Windows, macOS, Linux

I've mentioned the VLC Media Player above because it's a fantastic tool for Windows users that plays back just about any media ever created. It turns out, it also has the ability to download YouTube videos, albeit in a convoluted way. (If you run into any problems with it, you may need to do a full re-install of VLC and clear your cache to make this work.)

Copy a URL from a YouTube video, then open up VLC. From the Media menu select Open Network Stream (Ctrl+N) and paste in the URL. Click Play. When the video is playing, go to Tools > Codec Information. There is a box at the bottom called "Source"copy the URL you find in that box.

Go back to your browser and paste the URLit's a temporary web address and will expire eventuallyin the address bar and start playing the video. When you're viewing the video in the browser, you'll see an option to download the file to keep locally.

However, it appears that VLC is only going to save your file as 1080p and not any higher, even if the original YouTube stream was available in 1440p or 2160p (aka 4K). It also won't convert video to other formats.

 

Yes but their own gig where the setlist is more varied (ie My Lighthouse, Birds In Your Garden) trumps footage from a fest imo.

Always thought that either the Sheffield or Brixton shows would make a cracking live album.

In my hope's and dreams & like a live album like Leonard Cohen's Songs From The Road where it's recordings from lots of different shows, just think how varied the track listing could be with all those songs that only got the occasional outing (Mile End, OU, Countdown, My Lighthouse, Little Girl, Back In LA, Lipgloss, Sheffield Sex City, Wickerman, Trees, Birds In Your Garden... ok it might have to be a triple disc set!)

Good news about this livestream though. I was at this one and it really was a surprise to hear My Lighthouse.

One of the things Pulp haven't released is a decent live album.  Officially, that is.  Party Clowns, Peel Sessions and This Is Glastonbury is about it.  There was the Ultimate Live DVD, but other than that it is just bootlegs.

Just remembered the Albert Hall show was the one where they handed out little torches to everyone on the door & the killed all the lights for the intro to This Is Hardcore to see thousands of little read dots around the venue. Looked amazing!

 It did.  Become more common these days with smart phone, but back then...

...that was the first TCT concert I went to, but have been to a couple since and they tend to be quite special shows. Bands seem to make a little more effort for them.

What a load of shite. Solves one problem mind, I wasn't sure whether to pay for the Divine Comedy livestream of his gig at the Barbican that night as I thought it would clash with this but that shouldn't be an issue now.

Looks like TCT streams are available after the event, so you can watch Divine Comedy first.

Noted the full 3 hour Cure gig is available for £5 later this month and you get a shot at winning Bob Smiths guitar.

Shame they arent doing similar with Pulp. I would pay £15 for that ahead of any PPV football.

So we know there's pro-shot footage of RAH and Sheff Arena and (presumably) full BBC audio of Glastonbury 2011. Maybe a reunion reissue will happen one day.

Yeah, or that it was specifically filmed for the movie i.e cut away shots, odd angles etc. Still, I'm sure they have high-quality soundboard audio of the gig.
