Rating: Summary: Linkin Park Rocks Again! Review: Another Linkin Park CD-they have done it again! They are totally awesome live, with the CD, and the DVD is just like being at their concert! I highly recommend "LIVE IN TEXAS" to any LP fan!
Rating: Summary: Linkin Park-Live In Texas Review: Want to feel like you were there? Linkin Park's Live In Texas will rock you like you were. The DVD consists of a 17 song performance taped live at the Summer Sanitarium Tour, and the CD has 12 live songs. If ever a band could pull of being recored live, Linkin Park is it. For those still unsure of Linkin Park's greatness, Live In Texas is sure to change your mind.
Rating: Summary: depth and power Review: Being a fan of "old school" heavy metal (Black Sabbath et al)and moving on to symphonic progressive rock, I found the current wave of hybrid rap/metal to be boring, simplistic and definitely all sounding the same. Then I came across this band. I realise, as a musician, that their song structure and chord progressions are typical and unimaginative for the genre, but these guys have a unique way of infusing power and depth into their sound. I also know that alot of people refuse to acknowlege the band simply because they are longer "underground" and have appeared to "sell out." This is childish thinking and is prevalent in the middle and high school mentality. These guys definitely slam and should be given props for what they do. Keep rockin LP, you have my vote.
Rating: Summary: Not a disappointment to any LP fan Review: The dvd amazing. the cd amazing despite leaving 5 songs off the setlist that the dvd contains. the crowd amazing. most importantly the performance is amazing, but when hasn't LP been just that? if you have seen LP live you know what I am talking about...if you are part of the unfortunate group of people who have not seen LP live after watching this dvd you will be in line the next time they come to your town. extra bonus for you cowboy fans like me...the dvd is filmed in our stadium...texas stadium (w/ a few shots from reliant stadium) CRANK THIS WHEN LISTENING!!! Set list dont stay, somewhere i belong, lying from you, papercut, points of authority, runaway, faint, from the inside, figure.09, with you, by myself, p5hng me a*wy, numb, crawling, in the end, a place for my head, one step closer, on the cd deduct tracks 1,9,10,11,16
Rating: Summary: Great performance,great editing,GREAT BUY!! Review: this dvd is superb. the sound is AMAZING,if you have a good sound system,you'll really feel like you're there,the sound is just amazing,but it even sounds great on a stereo setup,either way it sounds great. the visuals are beautiful,very artistic,the editing is fast,keeps to the pace of the music,i think this is the best music dvd out there aside for the INCUBUS-morning view dvd. I knew this would be a fun dvd to watch becouse i'm a fan of the band,but even I was suprised at how good it really is. the CD part of the set is also great,the sound is just as great as the dvd...and the enhanced cd part gives you access to lots of extra features,pictures,screensaver,all kinds of stuff,it's a really cool package for a great price.
Rating: Summary: Succeeds on many levels with a few bumps along the way... Review: I'd like to open this up by saying that for the most part I really enjoyed this DVD, and that I have been a LP fan since late '99. So having seen a great deal of LP shows I am aware of the energy and emotion that they pack into their live performances. While this DVD does do a relatively good job of capturing this excitement and the performance is top-notch, the DVD itself suffers in several areas. First, the absense of microphones in the crowd has SEVERELY crippled the dynamics of the performance and removes the feeling that the watcher/listener is actually there. When you are at a show you can hear everyone around you singing as loud as they can and the huge crowd and their involvement with the show is what makes it so powerful. With the exception of 2 tracks this is almost completely unevident on this release. An extremely huge letdown here. Second, the decision to record this DVD at the Summer Sanitarium Tour means that at the time that it was filmed a great deal of the crowd hadn't shown up yet. Perhaps filming at a show in which LP had been headlining would have been a better idea. And finally, I was sort of distracted by some of the video production. In attempts to dramatize the event there are lots of sparatic camera changes which for the most part work well, but the frequent use of slow motion grows frustrating. Again I want to emphasize that though I have been listing my complaints about this DVD, that I still have given it a four star rating and still think that it is something fans of the band will enjoy. While I wouldn't mind seeing another live release with the band playing in a more intimate environment where the band is headlining and has more opportunities to interact with the crowd, I still really enjoyed this DVD and give it my stamp of approval
Rating: Summary: You feel like your there!! Review: Words can't describe this awesome CD/DVD. I've seen them in concert a few times, and I have to say I feel like I'm there. This is a must If your a Linkin Park fan, and even If your not It's still a great CD/DVD.
Rating: Summary: Saw it at the theatre last night! plus follow up review Review: Absolutely awesome (although it was not loud enough--guess I'm used to IMAX or actually being there)!!!!! I have always liked Linkin Park, but after seeing the show last night--I LOVE THEM! I will watch this DVD again and again and again! Can't think of enough superlatives to describe how great this is!!!!! ------------------------------- OK. Now it is a couple of months later and I've seen them live in person (once) and watched and rewatched the actual DVD many times. This concert footage has completely changed my musical life. That sounds a little over the top, I know, but it is true. I grew up in the 70's, loved punk rock in the 80's, thrived on alternative music in the 90's and now here it is 2004. Thanks to this DVD I have to say that I now believe that Linkin Park is one of the GREATEST bands EVER! Their music is SO innovative and their show on stage is so energetic and polished, they simply outperform any other band I've seen live in the last 3 decades. I'm older than your typical Linkin Park fan and someone on this site said something about how the teenagers will "grow up" or something like that and no longer like LP. That is simply ridiculous. I was pleasantly surprised at the number of 30/40ish fans at the Allstate arena show last month. Linkin Park is awesome and this is the BEST DVD I own (including all my movies)!
Rating: Summary: Hardcore LPfan must buy it!!! Review: I've already watched this DVD and was totally amazed, touched and very excited. the concert was very awesome and the CD was great, too. if you are a true hardcore LPfan just like me, you must own it!!! HIGHLY RECOMMANDED!!!
Rating: Summary: A must for anyone. Review: I attended the dallas show and lemme say that they were absolutly amazing live. I am sure even if you weren't there this dvd is still amazing. Buy it!
