"I hope this review squeaks it's way to the top so people are aware.....This Dvd is very good, although it is only the dvd. The cd of this live concert COMES WITH THIS DVD!!!!! Obviously the better deal."

BNL for the masses...not the fans

"After following BNL for many years and many concerts, I was looking forward to this DVD. I thought I might be able to use it to "spread the word" of the Barenaked Ladies. Unfortunately, it appears I was wrong. As always, BNL themselves were very good, but the energy from their live shows did not translate well to this DVD. Also, the irreverent quirkiness that makes them so fun to watch seems to have been toned down for this DVD (Angry People dance notwithstanding). They sounded somewhat nervous, which is a characteristic I have never seen in any of the more than 10 concerts I have attended. The sound, while technically DTS, was average. In many songs, the signature harmonies of BNL can not be heard at all. The DVD-Audio recordings of Maroon and E2E were significantly better. This DVD will live in my collection, although it is not likely that I will watch it very many more times. For an overall concert DVD, it is average, but for an amazing and hyper-entertaining band like BNL, it is a slight disappointment."
