"Nektar has always been one of my all time favorite bands since they first formed. I have not seen them perform live in years, but never missed them when they would come to Cleveland, Ohio. This is a great live concert and a lot of music on this dvd. They are much older now, but we all are! I hope they will come to Cleveland, Ohio on tour since they have a lot of fans here. Well worth the price. My son is a fan now after watching it."
70's progressive rockers are back!!!!

"Excellent concert DVD!!!! Great sound, camera work, and incredible stage lighting effects. This concert is much better than their 2002 live in New Jersey reunion DVD. The 2 new members of the band do a great job of reproducing the classic masterpieces the band is known for. "Remember The Future part 1 & 2" and "A Day In The Life Of A Preacher" are the highlights of the show. The packaging and amazing artwork on the cover blew me away when I first time I layed eyes on it. Nektar fans must get this DVD!!!!

Mediocre Performance

"I happen to think that the studio versions of their music are brilliant. 'Remember the Future' and "Recycled" are masterpieces in my opinion and I have loved them since the 70's. I was excited about getting this concert DVD but was quite disappointed when I watched it.
I found the performance seriously lacking. Maybe it's because the band member are all much older than when they first recorded this wonderful music... Anyway, I found it so bad that I may not ever watch it again. I'll just stick with listening to the studio albums.
Unfortunately, I really can't recommend this to anyone except for a really big fan ready to hear whatever they produce."

"As a Nektar devotee from way back this is a must have. As one who has seen a variety of live shows I call this a less agressive show. Great concert and a new organist/keyboard but was spoiled on past live shows where the guitar playing was to the limit entering hendrix territory and beyond.
None the less the video was great and audio is mixed great for the most part of the show. Occationally the organist would over power the guitar but only in a couple songs. I say organ because the korg triton was played hardly at all through the whole concert just the organ mostly but well composed for this style of progressive rock music....Wonderful players and they show that off over and over on some tough songs.
