This is worth seeking out as it's a great show. The picture is good and the setlist rocks. The audio quality could be better, and I feel that this is definately a DVD in need of a sound upgrade. I was intending to go to this show but was unable to due to school, so this DVD was a real treat to see what I was missing! Good stuff!

A fine video recording. The taper, standing rather much on the right to the stage, has almost no heads in front of and is allowed to have Mr. D in focus for the whole show - a gift he gladly accepts. The only lowpoint is the sound quality (thin, with almost no bass and depth), though, which doesn´t deserve all the stars it was given in the rating above. The performance is extraordinary, full of energy and inventive spirit, which results in especially great versions of "Ring Them Bells" and "If Not for You" (which features the most adventurous phrasings Dylan came up the last years). It´s splendid to be able to watch such a good video recording of it.
