"If you're a fan of TAS and have yet to see them live, this is an incredible demonstration of what their shows are like.
For the dvd shoot they do a 21 song performance with no breaks

TAS goes the entire show without losing any energy.
Great sound quality and excellent camera angles. Plenty of crowd shots to see how they get the people moving.
As usual, songs begin with some of Vincent's 'ignorant' rants which are always great to hear.
The dvd also comes with a second disc with a much smaller more intimate performance of

even on this performance the sound quality is excellent. Obviously, less cameras for this.

dvd also has a 30 minute 'retrospective' on the band
its a good show, but i was looking for more on the history of the band and lineup changes, but its still good to watch a couple times

some fans who bought special packages got a 10 second rant on camera, and some of those are pretty funny

finally, videos for skynet, angry mob justice, and smoke ya later

so if you are a fan, you will definitely enjoy this dvd. its a 21 song setlist so you can't complain.
