"Pat Benatar in concert is a great DVD for Pat Benatar fans. For Rock'N'Roll fans it will be a real treat to see her new arrangements and presentation of her classic songs couple with the new rhythms that she and her husband, Neil Geraldo, have created.The concert and production value of this taping is great. The sound mixing is wonderful and enhances the concert experience. The DVD has a few extras too. A behind the scenes interview with Pat and Neil discussing the new songs, the old songs, the family, traveling, touring, the fans and more.High energy and a lot of passion is what this concert has and I am a big fan of hers so I was a little partial but I actually have seen her twice in concert. Recently and when she was hot 20 years ago. And let me tell you, she looks and sounds better today then she did way back when. You'll really enjoy this concert. 7-30-02"

"this recorded concert dvd is an exceptional item for any benatar fan. you get all the great benatar classic, and four new songs from thier new abulm, coming soon.highlights are live for love, we belong, out of the ruins, and girl. pure magic, pure benatar. if you like this concert, get the soundtrack for this concert on cd as well. the introduction by pat is somewhat funny as pat mentions the fact that their recording this for histoic reasons, and they never did a dvd before. i wonder why? they were not available in the eighities!!!. great performance, and benatar looks beautiful, and stunning. all the more."

LUCKY FIND

"We don't get Pat Benatar releases in New Zealand these days so I was suprised to come across this DVD. What a great find though! Like most people I remember Pat Benatar from the usual 80s hits. This DVD shows a depth of performance few artists are capable of at any time let alone live. Neil Giraldo plays spectacularly, especially with the acoustic sets and Benatar's vocal performance is almost seamless.
I was impressed with the arrangements and that Pat and Neil's voices go together so well. But that's experience for you.And Neil has always had superb production skills.The audio mix is very nice too. Possibly the best live concert technically and musically I have ever seen. Made me a fan all over again but with more respect than ever before."

She still rocks your sock off!!!

"Ahhhhhh Pat, how many hours did I spend looking at your "Live In Concert" poster, with that tiny black mini skirt and matching tiny black singlet, hanging off my bedroom wall all those years ago. Hang on, I'll just get it out again.
Well, things all came back to me when I saw this brilliant DVD. Great concert, and she still looks beautiful. But not only that!!! She sounds brilliant!!!! Really brilliant!!! Still has that rough edge and then melts into the smooth sultry voice just before hitting you with her best shot, right between your eyes.
I always totally loved the guitar playing with all of her songs, so to see Neil as a balanced part of her show was new to me and a great surprise. Sorry I missed you Neil during the `80's, but I'm with you now.
So the obvious question now is, when are you guys coming to New Zealand to rock us in person??!!!"
