Loaded with good stuff

"This CD/DVD combo has tons of good stuff for the price of a regular CD. These are some of my favorite features:

-the whole concert in 5.1 surround

-the set list for this show is a great combination of songs from their last few CDs.

-the behind the scenes and "learn the songs" features are awesome for any musician. They all go into extraordinary detail on their setups, right down to walking through each pedal on their pedalboards! (for the guitarists). It's also great to find out about the more unusual instruments they have going on (i.e., toy robot, guitar hero controller, keytar, toy piano, etc.). Even for non-musicians, it gives you a great insight and appreciation for the music they make.

All of this is in addition to the fact that this band is wonderfully innovative and has a great sound on top of deep, meaningful, lyrical content. If you like DCB, you'll love them after this DVD. If you've never heard em, this is a great intro and you'll be left wanting more."

Wonderful CD/DVD package from one of the best Christian arti

"This DVD/CD is awesome. The rearrangements for David Crowder's songs are phenomenal. I actually like the live recordings better than the studio's. Not only do you get the entire live performance in 5.1 surround sound glory, you get a documentary following the band's tour as well as instructional videos done by each individual band member for the songs.

The highlights of this performance:

"Neverending"- David Crowder pulls out a modified Guitar Hero Controller that is actually a fully functional musical instrument

"Can You Feel it?" - A trippy techno-esque performance that was DJ'd/mixed on the spot by each band member on stage.

"Foreverandever etc" - The keytar!

I Saw the Light - DC*B does bluegrass gospel with banjos!

Every song is different and each is awesome in its own way. The lyrics are really inspirational (I love "Remedy"), and seeing the worship live by the entire congregation is a much different experience than listening to the studio recordings. Even better I can take these tracks on my Zune to get through my long days at the university.

Can't say good enough things about DC*B Remedy Club Tour. It's definitely a keeper. Also check out Skillet's "Comatose Comes Alive", their live performance on DVD/CD of the Comatose tour (premiers October 22nd)"

The special features alone are worth the price

"It's hard to go wrong with this cd/dvd combo. Fans of David Crowder won't be disappointed. The music is fun ,upbeat,worshipful, and the sound quality is good. The dvd is well-shot, and if you turn on subtitles, you get lyrics and guitar chords, which is cool, but if you are a musician, the "Learn the songs" special feature is worth the price of admission even if that was all you got. Here's how it works: You get a menu that has all the band members names. You pick a band member, and another menu opens up that has all the songs on the dvd. Pick a song, and you get video of the band member you selected teaching you how to play his part of the song! They go through the equipment used, effects, etc. then show you step-by-step how to play it! Awesome idea! I play guitar, and it's really pretty cool to sit down (sort of) with David Crowder and have him teach you how to play a song. I hope more praise bands steal this idea (sorry, David). Get this, it's awesome!"

A remedy for worship stagnation

"Catchy melodies, simple yet profound lyrics, edgy pop- rock worship. The David Crowder Band is so like the UK band delirious? in that their songs are intrinsically who they are. These are not songs for the studio but are fresh anthems for today. These songs slip in undetected and in the morning you awake declaring that the King is here.

The 5.1 and DTS sound on the DVD is arguably a more engaging listening experience than the studio version as most of the material is written for crowd participation. When the crowd exuberantly sings the refrain `La, la, la, la,` that excitement that this is more than just a concert is sensed each time you watch. New York (which is where this was filmed) is singing for the great King. There are a number of times where this occurs and you are drawn into that experience either singing along with the lyric subtitles (chords included!) or just being undone as you cry out with the violin interlude of `You are my joy'.

This is a perfect hits package of most of the DCB's music. Music that repeats phrases followed by lyrics that too are deliberately repetitive but always for effect with a delightful twist that is poetic in style (unlike the repetition of a 90s church chorus not knowing where to end!)

What great value to have the experience of seeing DCB play live in your living room and then to take the CD with you for car play all for this low price. Having recently seen this band live at the Parachute Festival (January '09 New Zealand) I was hungry for more. This package was just what I needed. If you have woken up a little late to this fresh wave of raw worship that is shouted out with Texan artistic flair - get this DVD and laugh with David and his honest, endearing and unbelievably melodic ways.

"

Absolutely Great CD/DVD, DCB Rocks, Praise the Lord!

"The DVD is great, my wife and I sat down and enjoyed this very much. And we got to watch our three year old dance to his favorite songs. If you like David Crowder or upbeat christian music, or music in general, you won't be disappointed."
