(More customer reviews)I bought this DVD as the DVD/CD combo, which was a really good deal for the price. I've been a fan of BA for many years, but, sad to say, haven't seen him live since the late 80's. I was looking to get some new concert videos on DVD, and when I saw what was available from BA, opted for this one over the "Slane Castle" or "Unplugged"(which I already had on VHS).
Not really knowing much about his current "band format", I must admit that I was initially shocked to see it was just a three-piece - with Bryan on bass, no less! I wasn't sure, at first, if I was going to enjoy the show as much as I had thought I would - worried how a smaller combo would pull off the songs. But, I needn't have fretted - as this concert was fantastic!
22, plus four bonus, songs on the DVD (which could have/should have just been included as part of the regular show), that were all quite solid! (the CD has only an abridged 15, but is still good). Picture and sound quality (Dolby 5.1 or Dolby suurround) were outstanding, and the camera's focused on Bryan and the band, and rightly so. Pretty much all the hits are here throughout BA's career - and I was especially pleased to hear "Remember", which I don't believe I've ever heard him do live.
About the only downside, is that the three-piece format isn't as "full" sounding an experience as you may have expected from BA. There were some songs that really could have used an extra guitar, or keyboards to fill out the sound. Still, the band rocks, and BA is quite the bass player, I must say. That, and aside from the four "bonus" cuts, there are no additional special features on this disc. If it had had more, I would have rated it 5 stars, but since it doiesn't it only gets four.
