FLYING COLORS featuring Mike Portnoy (drums, vocals), Dave LaRue (bass), Neal Morse (keyboards, vocals), Casey McPherson (vocals, guitars), and Steve Morse (guitars), released Live In Europe on October 14th via Music Theories Recordings on Blu-ray, DVD, 2CD, limited edition 3LP vinyl and digital download (iTunes, Mastered for iTunes, Amazon MP3). The record label has issued the statement below for those fans that have had issues with the Blu-ray:

"Mascot Label Group here about the Flying Colors Blu-ray. We printed the Blu-ray at 25 frames per second with the understanding that there's one universal system for Blu-ray that could play all frame rates. Unfortunately, selected US Blu-ray players (mainly Sony and Panasonic) can’t play the disc. Sending a replacement now would make no difference, because all discs are the same.

A new pressing, which should play on these players, is being manufactured as we speak. When we receive them, we will send replacement discs to all customers who bought the Blu-ray who and are having problems. This can take about 2 to 3 weeks, so we would like to apologize for the inconvenience.

Please contact order@mlgmerch.com with proof of your order (order confirmation or receipt) and we'll replace your copy. Please note this concerns a select amount of players; most Blu-ray players don't encounter problems whatsoever.

Again, we would like to apologize for the inconvenience."
