(3 out of 5 stars)

"There is very little written on this DVD on amazon.com, so I thought I'd add some information. First off, I am a Who fan, so my interest in this DVD is because of The Who. I do not envision watching the other, non-Who-related content on this disc very much. All apologies to the fans of the other artists; I mean no ill towards them in this review!



Here's some other tidbits:

-the single disc is packaged in a digipak. No booklet is included.

-the performances were recorded in March 2007, not fall 2007 according to amazon.com.

-the disc includes an interview with Pete Townshend, but it is not a current interview, nor is it about TCT. It is from 1995. (Time Life is responsible for this DVD. They also put together the fantastic documentary "The History of Rock 'n' Roll" from 1995; the interview comes from outtakes from that documentary.)
