Default Looking for original footage of "The Wall"

Does anyone know if there's any high-quality footage available somewhere online of Pink Floyd's "The Wall" during its original run?

Youtube has some gross, grainy videos but surely the majesty of "The Wall" hasn't been lost to time.

Anyone?

Do you mean the movie? Why not just buy it on DVD? Can't be very expensive these days. I used to have it on VHS, but that's another story.

Or you could buy it in HD from here ... Download movie Pink Floyd The Wall. Watch Pink Floyd The Wall online. Download Pink Floyd The Wall in HD, DVD, Divx and ipod quality. Download free movie Pink Floyd The Wall preview.

No, I've seen the movie a ton of times. I'm inquiring about actual concert footage in full.

The original tour might be pretty hard to come by. Roger waters released The Wall Live in Berlin in 1990. It's not really Pink Floyd, but there's a lot of interesting guest appearances. I'm not sure whether or not you can find it online.

Dude, that's such a bummer. All I've ever really seen is grainy footage, which is suitable and understandable but to experience it almost as it was, as the concert-goers had seen ... well, that would make me really happy. I guess maybe it's just been lost to history.

^ I recognize I'm probably the only person here who cares, but I have exactly the same feelings about Jethro Tull's Passion Play tour. I saw the tour after that (WarChild) in '74 & heard all my life about how EPIC the show was in '73. I finally saw some YouTube footage and the quality is like home 8mm with terrible sound

Before you do, if you haven't looked into torrent software, research diligently. there's some really malicious applications out there.
