NOT yet another Rush DVD!!!5
The title says it all really because those of you that have R30 or Rush in Rio might be thinking 'why do I need this?'. Well, firstly it has a load of songs which are not on those DVDs, secondly Geddy's voice sounds better than ever (and is for once well up in the mix), thirdly the band play a blinder (this is even better than R30) and finally the sound and picture quality is the best yet (some dates on the British tour weren't so hot sound quality wise - don't judge this by them). The Snakes and Arrows cd of course is heavily featured and some Rush fans have been a little lukewarm about this latest cd. But most who stick with the songs end up loving them (which just makes it a typically Rush album!!).

Their best live dvd yet!5
We've had quite a few live dvd sets from Rush recently but this is my far and away the best release of their career for me.
This is class from start to finish. The band are on top form, the timing is impecable, and they really do look like they are having a great time.
The camerawork and picture quality is superb throughout. The set starts with Limelight, the band bathed in white light, and that has to be the best picture I have ever seen on a live dvd. Probably any dvd.
There is a lot of older material here Circumstances, Digital Man, Entre Nous and A Passage To Bangkok that the band haven't played live in a while. A sprinkling of tracks from the new cd along with concert favourites like Tom Sawyer, The Sprit of Radio and Subdivisions.
That a lot of this music is 25 or more years old and still sounds great is testament to how good this band's back catalogue is.
Some of the band's quirky humour doesn't always work on me, but it does show the band have a sense of humour and can laugh at themselves a little.
Though when the concert is finished proper and the band has left the stage for good the sight of Geddy in his best Scottish attire announcing on the big screen "Thank God, that ****'s over" is priceless

Just the job!5
I bought this because mainly I have been rather disapointed by the DVD's that Rush have made in the past. Ok, Rio was very good indeed but there was something missing and I could not put my finger on what it was.

So after writing to their management asking for a DVD of the latest tour I jumped at the chance to get one when it came out.

What a suprise it was. Fabulous sound, very clear picture and what is more 3 disks in the wallet!! For me the recording does not take off until entre nous where everything seems to come together. Its a fab ride throughout well worth the money, possibly even getting blue ray for. As a Rush fan for years this is a recording to cherish and play all of the time. My favourite has to be the way the wind blows, and the drumming swing suprise which I was left wanting more.

Hey, they have got old with me! But this is a recording of spring chickens. Totally infectious. Buy it.
