    How about never made it to DVD from VHS ?

    Not much point in turning a DVD into a Blu-ray if the source material isn't high-def.

    I know but hopefully it is.

    BTW - Back Scratcher is what AC/DC called Back Street Crawler when they opened for them. :D

    Pretty sure this was shot with hi-def cameras as I saw it in such quality when it was streamed on some stations back then.

    Genesis - When In Rome (from the 2007 reunion tour.)

    I don’t think it ever got a Blu Ray release, at least not in the US. At the time it came out, the Blu-Ray/HD DVD war was raging and only put out a regular DVD, and exclusively at Walmart. I’ve seen a truncated edited version in HD on DirecTV. But I’d like to own the whole show on Blu-Ray.

    "Live Aid" & make it complete (warts & all)!
    Any footage backstage during the concert should be included & (if possible), have it in sync so we can press a button to see what's going on backstage as we're watching the concert.

    Still waiting for "The Cure - In Orange", although I am not sure it was on DVD even.

    Nirvana and Alice in Chains' MTV Unplugged shows. From what I've read, this probably won't happen because apparently those shows were shot on video tape so putting them on Blu-ray would be pointless.

    The strange thing is, many people claim Aerosmith's Unplugged show was shot in high-def, and that show was several years before the Nirvana and Alice in Chains shows. Perhaps @Vidiot knows what's what with MTV Unplugged..

    David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust, The Motion Picture
    David Bowie - Ricochet (Japanese Tour)
    David Bowie - Love You Till Tuesday
    David Bowie - Best of Bowie (some "videos" were actually shot on film, so if good sources are located, they have a lot to gain on Blu-ray)
    Beatles - Shea Stadium (another vote for it)
    Concert for Bangladesh (another vote for it)

    That's true. These could be reissued as "SD Blu-rays", but there isn't much improvement in the picture.

    I believe you're right, I think it was shot in HD.

    I'd love to see David Gilmour's Meltdown 2001 and Roger Waters In The Flesh released on blu-ray, as I believe they were also filmed in HD. I was at the filming of the Roger Waters show, so I naturally really, really want to see that in HD.

    They could upgrade them to Lossless sound.

    That was released on laserdisc as well and like a lot of laserdisc releases looks and sounds significantly better then their VHS counterparts despite still being standard def video.

    Speaking of “why do a standard definition video on Blu-ray?” The answer as numerous Rolling Stones live releases prove, hires multi-channel audio is vastly superior to DVD audio.
