Rating: Summary: 2 Thumbs Up! Review: No Doubt is defiantly a live band and this is where they shine, I thoroughly enjoyed this DVD. Several songs that they performed sound much better live. Most notably "Platinum Blonde Life" and "Don't Let Me Down", these songs totally rock over the CD version. I think they should have recorded them with the same energy and faster live beat to start with. Some bands loose something when they play live, not with No Doubt!ND is not a band to stand around the stage looking like mannequins either. Gwen is constantly running from one side of the stage to the other. She can really get the fans pumped up. Tony (Bassist) even gets into the act a few times. My only gripe with this DVD is that the 4 bonus songs seem to be recorded at a different sound level. I need to turn the volume up a good bit to get decent sound. Overall it's a stellar performance by ND, it makes me wish I could have seen the Rock Steady tour in person. Fans of No Doubt will not be disappointed with this DVD. I know I wasn't.
Rating: Summary: NO DOUBT does it again! Review: Overall, its pretty average. Gwen should be a solo artist and compete with Britney, Madonna, Hilary, Shakira, Christina & Kylie. The video collection is much better.
Rating: Summary: Energetic Concert DVD Review: The DVD is really good. Most of her songs sound better performed live than the studio versions, so that makes this DVD a must for anyone who likes their songs. The sound and picture quality of the DVD is great, and the concert itself is packed with good songs from their past and present. Songs like Magics in the Makeup and Running and jus amazing when she sings it live like the DVD. Only thing I didn't like about it is sometimes the camera jumps alot from band member to and member.
Rating: Summary: On the Fence Review: The song selection is great and so is Gwen performing. But quite frankly, I was not impressed with either the video or sound quality. The camera jumps around too much, the images are not as clear and defined as I have seen in many concert DVDs, and there seems to be a general lack of understanding or professionalism in knowing how to shoot a major concert. Watching the concert closely, it almost seems like the sound doesn't seem to be quite in sync at times with what you are seeing. And I have no idea what the purpose of the drummer wearing underwear and lipstick for the duration of the concert, and taping his eyes and mouth shut for "Rock Steady" adds to the concert. It makes you think Gwen should just go out on her own. If you are a Gwen Stefani fan, don't hesitate to buy this DVD. Otherwise, I'd wait for a new and improved DVD from a future concert.
Rating: Summary: True rockers Review: This Long Beach concert reveals No Doubts live performance power. It's the sheer energy and groove of the music that make this concert one of the best and most exciting live shows I've seen. A must see concert-
Rating: Summary: i liked this dvd a lot Review: Well, I've been hearing No Doubt on the radio and stuff for years and just recently got their CD with the singles throughout their career. I liked it so much I decided to get this DVD. I've seen them on TV for award shows and things and I knew Gwen was an amazing performer. She jumps around and the whole "Just A Girl" thing with "What you looking at?" and Gwen doing push-ups is great. This was a good concert with good sound quality. I love the music and they are a very entertaining band to watch. They move around a lot and wear cool outfits. There's 4 bonus songs on here with other special features too. There's an interview with the band and other features that just show footage of the members doing stuff. Lik Adrian golfing and drumming and playing with his kid or Tony talking about opening a pirate shop or Gwen as a Pussycat doll.
