Here are the finale videos that were sent to me by Pierre.

I've put 2 links. The second link is just for a backup, in case you have trouble with the first link. The links will stay online as long as at least one person downloads every 30 days.

Also, *just to complete* the list, I've added the Australian finale from my collection.

Thanks a lot to Pierre for sharing these videos!

Enjoy!

Finally!

I've waited a long time to see these! Anyways, I'll quit complaining and watch them right away! And to think it was posted 2 days ago!

And 3 cheers to Pierre for his incredible efforts!!!!! Thank you, my friend. And thank you, Enkil, for uploading them.

Trav.

Hmm...............I seem to be having problems with the downloads....

Trav.

Hey Smoke!

I've checked all the links, all of them are working fine.

Could you describe me the problem your experiencing?

Hey Enkil,

It's no big deal. Everything seems to be running smoothly now. I think it was mostly a technical problem.

However, these take a while to download. Their size is bigger than I thought.

I just watched the Australian finale, but it looks like Pierre was elsewhere?

And Enkil, I'm on aim now.

Trav.

Enkil,

I'll probably be on aim a little later after 9:00 P.M. Sorry about that. Anyways, if you're there later on, we'll have our traditional conversations then.

As for the finales, I just watched France's finale for at least 5 times already! Pierre, it's always nice to hear you scream!

Trav.

Hey Enkil,

Thank you for putting the clips online, my friend. It was a great idea also, to put the link to my comments, so that people can read them before they watch the clips!

Have a great week!

Pierre

Hey Trav,

It's a pleasure to share those clips with all of you, since we're all fans of fireworks I could not keep these clips to myself, knowing that you would enjoy watching them too!

As for the Australian finale, it is Enkil's clip, not mine.....so that explains the different location.

This year, I was at my usual spot 8 times out of 10. The evenings where I was elsewhere, were for the Argentina display due to the fact that I was late and did not have time to go to my usual spot.....and for the USA display....I was close to the ramp that goes down to La Ronde....this is why you see the structure on the left handside, which I had no choice but to record during the finale. Next time, I'll be at my usual spot

As for the screaming at the end of the Sweden and French displays, it came out naturally and automatically....this is the effect that intense finales and salutes have on me

Have a great week, Trav!

Pierre

Pierre,

Yeah, I remember the shows that you were late for and I remember when you told me the way you were rusing during the Argentina night! Good old memories, huh? But don't worry about being late! I'll only get worried if you're late for the finale, but I like when we see the entire show. I think you missed some intense moments in the first 15 minutes of the show, but no big deal.

The Australian clip, I figured that it couldn't have been you! But, it's ok, as this finale wasn't the best. I think there were many segments this year that were better than that! Plus, in this clip, there wasn't much noise. However, this wasn't a bad view!

As for yelling and screaming, yes, it is automatic for me and many of us, too! It's always a pleasure when you lose your voice! A good indication, as I said before.

Enjoy the weekend, as well, Pierre! And some nice weather coming up, too!

Regards,

Trav.
