Summary: Pleasantly suprised
Review: I have been a big fan of Pink Floyd for years. But when Roger Waters brought out his solo projects, they just did not impress me much, therefore I placed his work in the back of my mind.

What a mistake. This DVD looks and sound incredible. Not a flashy stage show like Pink Floyd, but Roger Waters are skilled musicians and it looks like they are having fun.

I will also be using this DVD to show off my home theater. It's that good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing concert from Mr. Waters
Review: Roger Waters has always been amazing. Ever since 1967 when the very first Pink Floyd album came out. This DVD spans his entire catalogue of music. He plays early and late Floyd classics, and also his solo work. My only complaint is that he didn't more from his first solo albums, the Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking. Otherwise, this is a great DVD for any Pink Floyd or Roger Waters fan. Or, for any music fan for that matter.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Concert
Review: Having seen the concert at the Bellvile Velodrome in February 2002 I think that this is a great concert. Got the DVD as soon after the concert as I could. It is not possible to describe the experience of seeing Roger Waters live. He is a genius songwriter and knows exactly how to capture emotion and atmosphere through this concert. Get it. You dont know what you are missing!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the man behind Floyd
Review: a stunning achievement. Here is the real genius behind the magic of Pink Floyd combining the best from those days with selections from his solo material. Backed by wonderful vocalists and musicians who complement him nicely, Waters brings new life to historically great songs. He manages to capture the essence of Floyd without the others. I find this material so much more entertaining than the other incarnation. Long live Roger Waters!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pure sound and visual
Review: I was at the concert they filmed and it was sensational...far beyond expectations. This DVD sounds so good, it seems better than a studio recording. The female singers really added a new dimension and the guitarist seemed as good as the original (David Gilmour). I highly recommend this DVD for both it's audio and visual experience!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: THAT SPACE CADET GLOW
Review: After seeing this tour live in Darien Lake, New York I had to see if the DVD captured the magic of this extraordinary concert. It does. Roger Waters and his ensemble stunned witnesses to his "In The Flesh" concert tour across America and this DVD enhances that experience with revealing camera work of the performers and considerable attention to the super-wide Waters-like images that backed the stage. At the center of the stage Waters looked humble, as if unaware of the devotion and and gratitude the fans offer him, acknowledging them with a shy but commanding stage presence as if he was doing nothing more than offering them a beer. He and his ensemble became a dynamic collective force blasting out a unity heralding Water's solo career with each member becoming an integral component to the astounding musical package. Andy Fairweather Low's blazing guitar solo during "Money", Jon Carin's letter perfect vocal rendition on "Dogs", Doyle Bramhall II's constant virtuosity in interpreting Pink Floyd and David Gilmour's lead guitar work; all these performances and the rest of the musical cast brilliantly recreated Water's and Pink Floyd's music. I was reminded while watching this how much alt-music fans have to be thankful for in Roger Waters. His is a humane and intelligent delving into the psyche, questioning where we came from and fearing where we might go but always with a respect for the weakest human condition. He has remained consistent, alternative, stimulating, and challenging at a time when most contemporaries will abandon their past for the lure of a hit record. At the outdoor venue where I saw this show live, to the dismay of thousands of concert-goers, dark rain clouds threatened the sky just prior to the scheduled time, and as if on cue, to the cheers of the crowd a sudden rainbow dissipated the grey clouds like a Pink Floyd album cover just before Waters made his entrance. It was like God himself was the set designer. Yes, this DVD captures the magic of that blessed evening. Far out man.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I'll make this short
Review: instead of the novelettes by some reviewers who insist on "hipping" me to their own personal knowledge of Roger Waters and Pink Floyd. But I digress, The DVD concert is wonderful, Waters band is top notch and gives an inspiring performance. If Waters can do tours like this one (and he can) who needs Gilmour's Pink Floyd. The Floyd songs cook and Waters' solo stuff is superb. 5-stars!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely fantastic
Review: This dvd is awesome. It should be ten stars. If you are a floyd fan, this is not just a no brainer, but a true treasure. If you are just a mainstream top 40 floyd listener, then the different interpretations of many classic floyd tunes may not appeal to you. But if you are a die hard floydian, you will salvate everytime you press play. From the ancient "Set the controls for the heart of the sun's" sensually psychedelic vibe to the new "Each small candle's" socially poignant message and all the classics, you are sure to be pleased. These are all top notch musicians who are amazingly tight as a band, but play relatively loose on the stage. They are genuinely enjoying what they're doing. As a lucky person who happend to catch this act on tour the music is as dynamic as I can recall live. The only knock is the audience seems subdued. The show I saw in Denver matched the intensity on stage and the subsequent feeling was Magic. Everyone I have shared this dvd with runs out and buys it. Don't miss out, get yours today!

Rating: 5 stars
