Description:
A first-class and candid look at what went into 'N Sync's "No Strings Attached" tour, Making the Tour begins at 'N Sync's manager's compound in Florida as the group plans to promote their 2000 CD, No Strings Attached. The members of 'N Sync are the creative and driving forces behind their own success, and they wanted to create this video to show their fans how they make a tour happen. Join their planning sessions, where they realize they have seven new songs to choreograph and rehearse, and begin to plan the staging, sets, lighting, and special effects. This documentary shows bits of interviews with each band member, the various rehearsal spaces, their frustration over too much material to prepare, meetings with some of the behind-the-scenes professionals, the beginning of the bus tour, and their meet-and-greet with fans before the first show. Throughout the DVD you hear bits and pieces of 'N Sync's music. It is not until the tour finally starts that you get some full-length concert performances--"Bye Bye Bye" and "This I Promise You." Clever editing leads you to believe that these are from an appearance at the Tacoma Dome in Washington State, but it is the same footage used in the Live from Madison Square Garden video. (One telltale remark did slip through: "Hey, New York, is this close enough for you?") Also included are music videos for "Bye Bye Bye," "This I Promise You," and "It's Gonna Be Me" for a playing time of 80 minutes. --Larry Clark
