Prepare yourself to fall in love with your TV...

The image is vibrant with contrast and life and incredibly crisp... you can count the hair on Andrea`s neck !!!

The 5.0 surround mix is fabulous, stting you right there in the middle of the stage...

The direction is fabulous too, most of the shots are panning left or right to give a great feeling of depth.

The transfer is 16:9 ANAMORPHIC (Yes !!!)

There are no extras worth mentionning, apart from 2 subtitles (English: lyrics only & English for the Hearing Impaired: lyrics+small comments by the artists and the public)

If you like the music... you MUST get this disc...

This is an excellent DVD! The DVD 5.1 channel sound is very well used. I especially like the way on some songs, the three singers voices come out of the three seperate left, mid, right channels, one singer per speaker! The guitar solo on another song comes out of the left speaker.

The music is great, and among my favourite songs are Little Wing and Queen of Hollywood. I can`t believe how well Andrea sings *live*. She sounds exactly the same as on the album.

The girls look as good here as they do in person (I have a copy of Talk on Corners signed by them!)

Negative points: well the picture seems a bit dark in places, but maybe that`s just my TV, and I can adjust the picture in DVD options anyway.

Overall a very good disc to get.
