I’m not a huge bootleg DVD fan (yet), but this release is worth its weight in gold! Someone took the time to edit, seamlessly, footage shot from the back row of the arena, elsewhere from the seats, and video screen shots. This DVD is phenomenal! The sound is what you would expect, but not un-listenable. When I cranked it through my system, it echoed out like I was back at the ol’ Philly Spectrum.<p> The show is from Cincinnati, Ohio, and Bruce pulls out all the stops, opening with “American Skin” and closing with “Ramrod.” There’s a world between those two songs, and Bruce and the band tell their stories with vigor. <p>My standout would be “Into the Fire.” Nice editing job!<p>Bonus tracks include the Letterman & Conan shows, which is nice<p>And to top it all off? These are SILVER DVDs!
