Summary: Great performance, but horrid audio mixing and camera work
Review: After seeing Berlin perform live at the KROQ Inland Invasion back in September, I knew I had to get their DVD. They rocked out to a packed "side stage" area and everyone was cheering them on.On the DVD, Terri looks radiant and beautiful as she always does. She does a great job performing the songs, but the audio mixing is very inconsistent. Terri's vocal mix varies from being too low to almost being at the norm. I cringed during "Masquerade" because Terri's voice came out deep and partly muffled. Luckily, not all of the tracks suffered this annoying calamity. In between some of the songs, Terri gives us some insight about the songs and about the band. Fans will appreciate this, but the commentary portions are not as loud as the musical performances...so you need to turn up the volume just a little bit to hear Terri. And when the musical performances come back on, you'll need to turn down the volume a bit. The inconsistency of the audio levels annoyed me the most for I was constantly turning the volume up and down as I watched each track. If the audio mix didn't bother you, the camera ops and the shots they recorded should! Many times, the director chose horrible camera angles to film, and the camera ops sometimes couldn't even follow Terri and keep her in the shot! The camera-persons must have been amateurs because shots were sometimes not focused well, and the subjects were not framed well. As for my comments about the audience, it does looked staged. The audience (or ambient) noise is not heard much at all, until the end of the songs...and even then, it's slightly muted. The audio mix could've been better if more ambient noises were present, because the tracks sounded more like a "studio" (instead of a "live") performance. The venue...I agree with past reviewers, the place looks like a basement or a garage. My first thoughts was that the place looked like one of those public cable access tv studios. The venue did not give an "intimate" feel to the dvd or the performances. The Dope Show track is entertaining. I liked it because it is very different from the other song performances. Terri does a good job covering this Marilyn Manson song. There is one touching moment on this dvd. Just before "Take My Breathe Away," Terri thanks her mom for supporting her all these years. She also thanks all the parents who have believed in the success of their children. If you are considering on buying this DVD, beware of its flaws. It's not a fantastic production and looks almost like an amateur video project. I blame this on Image Entertainment. They ruined what could've been a great DVD for Berlin!

Summary: dvd release.
Review: been a berlin fan since i was 14.and love them dearly. great timing for this dvd.terri nunn sounds better than any of todays female singers live or otherwise. great collection of songs...however nothing from their 3rd album except take my breath away. bummer. but what really let me down is that bore-ass audience. how many people were in it, 15? c'mon! i saw them live last summer in new jersey in an outside theatre where it was pouring rain, and there were more people there than in this 2 by 4 basement. but well worth buying...

Summary: Blondie meets Depeche Mode
Review: Berlin are one of the great bands that came out of the New Wave era of the late 70's/early 80's. This DVD proves that with songs such as Masquerade and The Metro - the music performed along with Terri Nunn's vocals just makes you want to get up and DANCE!
The only downfall with the performance are the 'dancers' on stage which, to me, spoils the show and the audience....
the audience are just pathetic! There's no energy or emotion and to be honest, I can't understand what the hell they bothered to show up for. I think I could have made up for them on my own!
Overall however, the music is so enjoyable I recommend it!

Summary: Heart of Glass
Review: Deborah Harry and Berlin simply outdo themselves on this DVD. All of the classics are here from Heart of Glass, Call Me and the first rap song (no not Ja Rule, Holla!) Rapture. This is a Swedish delight that this American loves.

Summary: For fans
Review: I love Berlin - and have done since I heard No More Words when it was first released. I love Terri Nunn - she is STILL sexy, and has a great rock voice. The quality of this DVD, however, is APPALLING! Playing in DTS doesn't make the slightest of difference. The mixing sounds like its been done by an amateur, and the video looks like its been shot on a series of home video cameras. I have many music DVD's, and honestly, this is the worst quality in my collection - lucky I'm a fan otherwise I would send it back! Another annoying thing is they seem to have resorted to a technique a lot of older music videos used - an interview between tracks. The beauty of a DVD is you can skip to menus and sub-menus to CHOOSE what you want to watch. Mind you, Terri's words were quite interesting,, but not in the middle of the songs PLEASE!
Overall, the production of this DVD is AMATEURISH at best. Very, very unfortunate as Terri Nunn and Berlin are a great band this DVD does not do them justice AT ALL!

Summary: Not bad.
Review: I recently purchased this DVD while out looking for some different music releases. Admittedly, the only song I was familiar with was "Take My Breath Away" as I am a huge fan of the motion picture Top Gun. Anyway, I found this to be a quite entertaining DVD purchase. While it's not quite what I was expecting for a concert video, Terri Nunn's vocals (not to mention her unbelievable beauty) more than made up for any shortcomings this disk may suffer from (at least for me). Overall, I recommend giving this DVD a chance.
