CD Reviews

Concert movies
Kurt Koller | South Orange, NJ USA | 04/13/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Concert movies tend to suck, the very fact that it's recorded and you're watching it in your living room breaks with what's happening, and they tend to end up feeling "guh." You can't feel the energy in the room, you can't look where you would normally look (take a glance at a person around you and you can see how they react) so all of that "ambience" is lost.



I used to do the ween website before they did their own, so I'm biased here, but Ween is such a great live band and it totally shows on this DVD. Their craftsmanship is top notch.



I would agree with the other reviewer about the energy level and level of showmanship being lower than a typical ween show, I think the fact that the cameras were present has a lot to do with that.

The best live band of the last 10 years
Downstream | Oconomowoc, WI United States | 11/21/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Yeah, maybe the concert is only 3 stars, when compared to other Ween shows (like Live At Stubbs or Live In Toronto), but it's 5 stars compared to any other music concert DVD available. It's a very good Ween concert and includes songs from all of their CD's. The bonus audio CD really adds to the value of this package. Their range as a band is amazing. They skillfully swoop from metal to country to 70's jam rock to cabaret to jangle rock with scary ease. Dean Ween is our generation's Jimi Hendrix. He is THAT good. His solos are like train wrecks crossed with airplane landings. The band's version of Led Zeppelin's "All Of My Love" is a dead-on, perfect replica, and it alone makes this worth purchase. There aren't many bands around today that can equal Ween with live performing talent. A few that are in their realm are Los Lobos, the Mekons, Primal Scream, Wilco, Midnight Oil (they were, at least, until their recent breakup), the Roots, and that's about it. Ween should be selling millions of records. Don't miss out on one of the era's best groups."
I think you NEED this....

"If you are a Ween fan, you are going to buy this. If you are new to Ween, you NEED to buy this. This is Weens first DVD release and what a release it is. The quality of the recording on both the DVD and the CD is incredible. Not to mention that the setlist on both is top notch. It covers the hits spanning Ween's illustrious career thus far. The DVD also has a cover of Led Zeppelins All of My love which they rock out to the fullest. I think the boys in Lep Zep would agree with me on that. So enough of my rambling and enough of you reading. This is a must have. So buy it."
