Anyone have The Who at R.A. Hall ???

How is this DTS concert DVD? How does their performance stack up to the showing at the Concert for NYC? I have seen neither and have been leaning towards NYC, but would also like possibly getting the Albert Hall disc too.

I have the Albert Hall performance...

I absolutely love it.

The sound is great

My only complaint is, that for some of my favorite songs ( Behind Blue Eyes comes to mind..) they have guest singers...

Other than that @ this disc

(I never saw the NY one)

I have it. Another for this disc. Great DTS track.

I get chills down my spine when Baba O'Reilly starts up.

P.S. This was my 1000th post. Special Edition.

Great sound (although not alot of music in the rears, mostly crowd). Also, the picture is anamorphic. I enjoyed most of the guests, except for Bryan Adams doing Behind Blue Eyes. Eddie Vedder is great. I think the show is over 2 hours, plus there's rehearsal footage on disc 2.

Sounds like an upcoming buy for me! Thanks all. I do want the NYC disc too for everything on it, but the RA looks like a must have.....

If you like the Who, this is a must have

The concert is on disc 1, the bonus stuff on disc 2. I thought the bonus stuff was nothing special

As already mentioned, anamorphic with a great DTS track.

And as also mentioned, Bryan Adams detracts from Behind Blue Eyes (he also showed up on Elton John's Greatest Hits Live and sucked there too)

Not only does Bryan Adams detract from Behind Blue Eyes, though, he screws up the lyrics even after they corrected him at rehearsal (see Disc 2). It's still a great DVD though.
