Rating: Summary: Fantastic !! Brillant Performance ! Review: ...I not only have this video but I'm buying another one just to have has back-up!!This video has got to be one of the most entertaining Bee Gee videos I have ever seen. The live phone calls and emails only enhances the fun of this video. The interaction only gives Barry, Robin and Maurice the opportunity to not only have a great time but to show their witty and great personalities. Maurice is absolutely hilarious to watch through out the entire concert. It's very obvious the brothers are having a wonderful time. Their musical performance is exceptional. The vocal ranges and harmonies are better now than 30 years ago. The maturity in their vocals has only enhanced their sound. Incredible indeed! I not only recommend buying this video I think it would be a sin not to. You would only be cheating yourself out of a great time. "This is Where I Came In" is an exceptional new Bee Gee's album and their performance of those songs on this video is dynamic. You will be off your seat dancing that's for sure. If you buy it and hate it ...well you may want to check to see if you are alive and breathing. TEN STARS FOR SURE !!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Magnificent live performances Review: Alright, I admit the "phone in" gimmick is corny and a distraction, but you can simply fast forward the calls. Buy this for the music, which is absolutely gorgeous. The Bee Gees have always given stellar live performances, replicating their original records as close as possible. Well, I have news: this live performance beats any I have heard, it's *that good.* The Bee Gees, like McCartney, have always taken great pains to sing their songs live as closely as possible to the original. I appreciate this and their efforts to duplicate their classics here meet with much success. Particularly amazing is Robin's haunting, gorgeous vocal on "I Started a Joke," one of the great Bee Gees of all time. Similarly impressive is "New York Mining Disaster," which shows the brothers still had the ability to harmonize beautifully. The only slight criticism is Barry's high notes and falsetto, which he strains to reach, especially on "Stayin' Alive." He's backed up with some invisible (and pre-recorded) mystery voices, but his ability to sustain the high notes has decreased with time. Personally, I don't care. This is an awesome live performance and for anyone who admires the brothers Gibb, this is something from which you'll derive hours of enjoyment.

Rating: Summary: The Gibbs are the greatest. Review: Great music, great chemistry, great fun. The only downside was Mark McEwan. Next time, leave him out of it.
Rating: Summary: Best of the Best Review: I had the priviledge of attending this concert in NY and it was nothing short of extraordinary. The Gibbs only get better and better. Now I can relive the experience anytime I like.
Rating: Summary: EXCELLENT! Review: I have been a Bee Gees fan for years. It is really wonderful to see them again. I love the songs from the new album "This is Where I In". It is really great to hear Maurice take the lead in two of the songs, "Man in the Middle" and "Walking on Air". While Barry and Robin have beautiful voices, I really enjoy listening to Maurice sing. After all these years, it is really great to see and hear the joy they still get from their music and from preforming together. While precious minutes of the show were taken up with requests, it was still nice to see their interaction with the fans. I think anyone who is a fan of Barry, Robin and Maurice will enjoy this video. I have watched it over and over. It is really sad that we won't have the chance to see the three of them together like this again.

Rating: Summary: THE BEE GEES RULE!! Review: I own this DVD, along with their "One Night Only" DVD, & I have to tell you--I love 'em both!! They sound just as good (or better) as when they were younger--I play one after the other at times (there are a few new songs on "This Is Where I Came In") on my stereo, set for DTS--ohhhh the sound is INCREDIBLE!! I catch myself "boogie-ing"(not sure how to spell that--sorry) constantly...I'm 31 years old & LOVE the Bee Gees!! What more can I say? :)
