From B.S.:
Hi,
Thanks for your patience with this release. We’ve just received the following from the band:
After lengthy consideration we have decided against a new pressing of Stone & Steel for specific markets outside of the UK, Europe, Middle East, Africa, India, China, Australia or New Zealand. A test disc was produced for a new pressing but it did not meet our high standards.
As a pre-order customer, we will now be shipping a copy of the initial pressing to you on 28 June 2016. We have also included here a link that you can use to download the complete film from Vimeo at no cost.
You may very well find that the initial pressing of the Blu-ray disc will perform correctly in your existing player (only older players are likely to be affected). If however, it does not play correctly we will refund the full cost of Stone & Steel to you.
We do apologise for the problems with the Stone and Steel release that have
affected some markets. We have developed considerable expertise in audio releases in recent years. However, Stone & Steel is our first video release and it has proven to be a steep learning curve for us. Unfortunately, the technical aspects of producing a video release for different worldwide markets are extremely complicated.
We do intend to film future gigs and will ensure that the appropriate technical requirements for worldwide Blu-Ray releases are met.

Kind regards,
Big Big Train
As the message says we’ll be shipping copies out next week.
Hopefully everything will be great and the disc will work perfectly for you - if not we will offer a full refund. Please let us know how you get on with the disc when it arrives.
Have a great weekend,
Lisa
