Anybody know when this concert will finally be released on DVD?

It won't be as it was a benefit concert and therefore, no individual artist
will be allowed to make any money from it. It's the same situation as Live
Aid. The Kampuchea album was released as a money-making scheme for the
fund.

Unless the individual artists all sign releases for their performances (as
happened with the album) to be used in a documentary (as with Woodstock) or
the FM Tribute concert (hence why the sets from Metallica, Extreme and Def
Leppard were not on the video or DVD) type of release, then this will just
circulate on bootleg.

The sets were on the video. Dunno why they weren't on the DVD tho, at
least the Extreme set.

Because each release on a different format has to be cleared. The
bands mentioned ok'd the VHS, didn't with the DVD. Why? Who knows?

Metallica has become a lot more protective of their image and
recording rights, as the case with Napster proved.

Guns N' Roses? Maybe Axl is still having a hissy fit over the people
who showed up with a "Piss Off Axl" banner at the concert...

It still would've been neat to see Spinal Tap's set on either
release, though :)

I agree. Is there any footage around of the Spinal Tap set?

Probably not, unless you happened to tape the entire MTV showing of the tribute
concert in 1992 (the MTV airing did include Spinal Tap playing "Majesty Of
Rock", but I don't remember if MTV aired their whole set).

Wasn't that one song all they played?
