Beautiful filming of their tour,

This review is from: U2: Vertigo 2005 - Live From Chicago (Two-Disc Deluxe Edition) (DVD)
If you've never seen U2 in concert you are missing out, they are AMAZING. I saw this concert live and it's was also fantastic, emotionally takes you to places far beyond the songs on the album.I actually only somewhat like the songs on the album, but in concert they become emotionally charged and great to listen to, especially within context and with Bono's commentaries and stories. The production on the video, the camera angles, and the sound are first rate, perfect. Whether you were at the concert or not, if you are a fan it's worth it.

This review is from: U2: Vertigo 2005 - Live From Chicago (Two-Disc Deluxe Edition) (DVD)
I don't know what people are talking about. I really don't. This DVD is of exceptional calibre. I have heard that Chicago wasn't the greatest of shows on Vertigo tour. With this DVD, I find it hard to believe. The setlist is frankly a dream come true, Bono and Co. manage to pull it off very well. Sure, it was early in the tour and perhaps all the songs weren't quite perfectly set up in the band's minds, but it was still an exceptional representation.I attended the Toronto, Canada September 12 2005 show myself, and that was spectacular. It could not compare to the DVD. I feel that's inherently the problem. The DVD will never compare to the real thing in person. Maybe that's why people are rating it so poorly. I also would like to address something else; many have complained that the band sounds flat, Bono has voice problems and there are screw ups in the songs etc.... Personally, I think that's what makes U2 so interesting. They aren't perfect and they admit to it readily. They make mistakes they joke about them, they have fun with them. Bono jokes about having a frog in his throat and I couldn't help but smile. I'm Irish myself, and we enjoy seeing ourselves screw up a bit. I think that is one of the great moments on stage during the show. I can understand why people are criticizing Hamish's production of the concert. I agree it does jump around a bit and that can be fairly annoying to some people for sure. I however enjoyed it. U2 is a visual and sonic feast. This tour has had so much going on during the songs. Animation in the background, etc.... You have to jump around to see all of it. As for the second DVD if you have the deluxe edition. I will agree, it is for completists for the most part, but hey, for me they were the same price so I bought it regardless. ;) All in all, a great dvd for U2 fans, a great documentation of the Vertigo Tour, and who can't love the slot machine and "Mamma Mamma Mamma?" :D

Excellent video and sound quality. Great selection of songs. Very well shot with great shots of the band and the enthusiastic audience. The stage and effects are very impressive. A memorable performance.
