Suggestions for Concert DVD's?
 

I am looking for suggestoins on the best concert DVDs. I currently own The Eagles DTS DVD and love it.

Touring Band 2000 -- Pearl Jam

The Video quality is not all that great...but the sound... :drool:

Play it Loud!

U2 Elevation Tour - Amazing concert with great audio and video

Nine Inch Nails All That Could Have Been - Again, great performance with great Audio/Video

I recently bought Queen: We Will Rock you DTS and The Corrs: Live in London with DTS option too and they're both great discs.
Also have Journey: 2001 which is surprisingly good even though it's no longer Perry on the mic. And I also have Bon Jovi:the Crush tour. That one's awesome too.

Discussion on concert DVDs belongs in Music Talk. You might want to do a search in there, because this thread sounds familiar.

Moving thread.

I'll second Nine Inch Nails...and All that Could Have Been. The sound is just incredible. Others to look at:

Talking Heads: Stop Making Sense - one of the best rock movies ever made and a great DVD edition

The Last Waltz - Sounds and looks incredible for a low-budget 70s film

Widespread Panic: Live at Oak Mountain - The 5.1 is just great on this one. I've seen them live a bunch of times, and they sound nearly as good in my living room.

Fleetwood Mac "The Dance"
ELO "Zoom"
ELton John "Live - One Night Only"
James Taylor "Live At The Beacon"
Metallica "Cunning Stunts"
Eurythmics "peacetour"
Steve Hackett "Tokyo Tapes"

No collection is complete without Stevie Ray Vaughan - Live at the El Mocombo. Best...concert...ever

Uh... the Eagles? Anyway, Last Waltz is the obvious choice. Just got it as a gift although I haven't watched it yet. I have seen the film. Excellent, even though I'm indifferent about The Band. But what do you expect? It's Scorsese

It's really annoying when my taste in music made me decide to buy a region free player.

In my collection:

ASH: "Tokyo Blitz"

STEREOPHONICS:
"Live at Cardiff Castle"
"Morfa Stadium" (I was there :D)

MANIC STREET PREACHERS:
"Live in Cuba"
"Cardiff Millennium Stadium"

NEW ORDER:
"316"

ECHO AND THE BUNNYMEN:
"Live in Liverpool"

JAMES:
"Getting Away it With It....Live"

(Forthcoming)
MUSE:
"Hullabaloo"

the yes live in amsterdam dvd's well worth getting

I second that one. His "Austin City Limits" performance is noteworthy as well.

I also just picked up B.B. King - Sweet 16 (Live in Africa 1974). That was one killer show as well.


/ modiman.

I second the Yes Live In Amsterdam...also known as Symphonic Live. Great picture, dd and dts sound. Best concert disc I have ever seen or heard.

Pink Floyd - Pulse
 

I wish they would release Pink Floyd "Pulse" on DVD!

Or Morrissey - Live in Dallas
 

Morrissey - Live in Dallas on DVD would rock too!

The Band (and lotsa other artists) - "The Last Waltz"
The Who - "Maximum R & B Live" (if you can find it) and "Live at the Isle of Wight"
And Bjork has a few concert DVD's, I'd recommend "Live at Cambridge".

I second

Metallica - Cunning Stunts
Bon Jovi - The Crush tour

Roger Waters - In The Flesh - just plain awesome
A-ha - Live At Valhall - the best live DVD you didn't know about
Rammstein - Live Aus Berlin - turn off the lights for this pyrotechnic blowout

Couldn't agree more! Pearl Jam's Touring Band 2000 also gets a nod.

-eeyoreed :)

Oh yeah, Hendrix has a few concert DVD's, all worth checking out.

I'll second Stop Making Sense, possibly the best concert movie ever made.

The Last Waltz is also quite excellent.

Disclaimer: I know nothing about DVD's, but I do know about these films...

The Paris Concert for Amnesty International
It has DTS
Performers include:
Robert Plant & Jimmy Page
Peter Gabriel
Bruce Springsteen
Radiohead (who do an insane Paranoid Android)
and more

A review of the disc:
http://www.thedigitalbits.com/review...rtamnesty.html

I agree with the review all the way, except that it doesn't mention the DTS track at all. I don't know why, as my copy has one - and it rocks.

Some that may not have been mentioned and have excellent (performance/video/audio) quality:

Bad Company: Merchants of Cool
John Fogerty: Premonition
Peter Frampton: Live in Detroit
Steely Dan: Two Against Nature
Deep Purple: Come Hell or High Water
ELP: Live at Royal Albert Hall
Queensryche: Operation Mindcrime
Scorpions: Moment of Glory
Styx: Return to Paradise
Three Dog Night: Live with the Tennessee Orchestra (DTS)
Uriah Heep: Magician's Birthday Party
Yes: House of Yes

Alice in Chains; "MTV UNPLUGGED" - Great Performance (2nd best to Nirvana's MTV UNPLUGGED)

Megadeth: "Rude Awakening" -Their last show ever?....Great set-list/Great Sound

Metallica: "Cunning Stunts" -welll its METALLICA
Metallica: "S & M"- again its METALLICA

Pearl Jam: "Touring Band 2000" -Kick ASS sound

U2: "Elevation 2001 from BOSTON" Great Performance Great sound good picture
