Need advice on Good DTS or non dts concert Dvds?

I'm looking for something with amazing sound for concert dvds. it can be whatever genre of music but it has to have great sound.

Also, anyone know of any great metal dvds.. I just picked up the rammstein one it was great but had annoying menus. Anyone know any other dvds like that??

Thanks.

They aren't even one of my favorite bands, but IMO, the greatest concert ever committed to film was Talking Heads: Stop Making Sense. It's got a great 5.1 remix, but it's not DTS.

I don't watch a lot of concert DVDs, but I thought "Concert For George" (the George Harrison tribute film) had fantastic audio...it has both a DTS and a 5.1 Track. Not exactly metal, but great music nevertheless.

David Gilmour Live. It has a 24 Bit LPCM Stereo track that is 1.5 gb in size plus a Dolby 5.1 track.

Neil Finn - 7 Worlds Colide. No DTS, but great sound.

Rush - In Rio has a great DD 5.1 track. It doesn't have DTS, but it sounds really good.

My personal favorites are:

Shaman - RituAlive - great dts
Opeth - Lamentations - also dts and killer
Nine Inch Nails - And All That Could Have Been - 2 versions, get the dts one

Those are some of my favorite metal dvds with dts..
Look for the upcoming Evergrey dvd in may.. it looks stunning

Blue Man Group-Audio. No video to speak of, but the sound is incredible, esp if you have a DVD-Audio player and a good sub. Their other album --Complex-- isn't quite as good for audio, but is still excellent and there is a concert video version.

I also recommend Eagles: Hell Freezes over and Rush in Rio. I also own Corrs: Live in London, Dave Matthews: Listener Supported and Metallica: S&M. All very enjoyable with crisp sound quality.

Incubus - Alive At Red Rocks
Metallica - Cunning Stunts
Metallica - Live Sh*t: Binge & Purge
Mötley Crüe - Lewd, Crued, and Tattooed
Nickelback - Live at Home
Oasis - Live by the Sea
Oasis - There and Then
Oasis: Familiar To Millions - Live At Wembley
Pearl Jam - Live at the Garden
Pearl Jam - Touring Band 2000
Rage Against The Machine - The Battle of Mexico City
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Live at Slane Castle

Talking Heads is the tops, for me.

Also solid are Placebo's "Soulmates Never Die - Live in Paris" and James' "Getting Away With It - Live."

Sheryl Crow; Rockin' the Globe
Sammy Hagar & The Waboritas; Caba Waba Birthday Bash Tour
Goo Goo Dolls Live in Alaska. More of an Unplugged/Travel video, but great sound and acoustic versions.

Roy Orbison - Black and White Night has brilliant audio (DTS) and video (shot in 35mm B&W)

Of course, Hell Freezes Over is incredible, too.

Both the 5.1 and DTS mixes on The White Stripes' "Under Blackpool Lights" are great.
