[edit] Dates of release & formats
VHS videocassette and Laserdisc were the original formats of release, in 1985, under the title Grace Under Pressure Tour 1984. In addition to the "Grace Under Pressure" concert, the original releases also included a full-length music video for "The Big Money," a truncated version of which was released to outlets like MTV and on the short-lived CD Video format. This version of Grace Under Pressure Tour is currently out-of-print in both formats.
In 2006, a DVD version of the original production, with its audio re-mastered in 5.1-channel Dolby Surround by Rush guitarist and co-producer Alex Lifeson, was released as part of the DVD box set, titled Rush Replay X 3. In 2007, the DVD version of Grace Under Pressure Tour, as it was included in Replay X 3, was released as a single, stand-alone DVD. As a special feature, Rush Replay x 3 includes an audio CD of Grace Under Pressure Tour DVD that is unavailable elsewhere. The DVD release does not include the music video for "The Big Money."
