Music in High Places - Goo Goo Dolls (Live in Alaska)

Rating:
Summary: AWESOME
Review: As with the DVD I purchased this is an awesome show and a real treat for Goo fans. I bought this for my niece because she doesnt have a DVD player in her room. Only thing missing is the outtakes and the music only feature which is on the DVD. A must have video for a Goo fan. The Goo's music and the back drop of Alaska make this a beautiful video.

Summary: good scenery..music good
Review: Been a fan of Goo Goo dolls for awhile and considered them to be at times on the cutting edge with songs like "slide" "broadway" "black baloon" and "Acoustic 3 " all of which are on here in a acoustic way. John Rzeznik does most of the commentary and its set in alaska which provides some unbelievable scenery. This is not your bang them up GGD but reflective pieces especially with John on appreciation of where they have come from. Its a good dvd for sitting with your significant other to enjoy a short version of 40 minutes of 7 songs, but was looking for alittle more... Not disapointed to have it

Summary: unfortunately a waste of money
Review: I have been a fan of the Goos for years and have, for the most part, enjoyed everything they have been a part of as a band. But I believe that this DVD is the worst thing they have done with their careers to this day. If you are expecting the usual Goo outstanding live performance, don't count on it. All you get is basically a limited tour through Alaska with a few songs thrown in. I have no problem with great documentaries but this doesn't come close. Through out the entire length of this video there is this overall "blah" feeling generated from the band as if they were really thinking : " OK, can we go get trashed now?" I was really bummed out because of this video and honestly, I wish I could get my money back. Obviously this isn't the type of thing geared toward the die hard music fans. It's more for those who crave the Goo eye candy.

Summary: The Alaskan Goo Goo's
Review: I lived in Alaska for almost nine years. To see the Goo Goo Dolls perfoming in the state of Alaska was incredible. Their music, with the backdrop of Alaska makes for one of the most awesome music DVD's available. If you are a GGD fan this is a must own DVD. The version of the song "Slide" is a must see. The Goo Goo Dolls are out on a chunk of glacier floating while singing the song. Simply Great!!!!!!

Summary: I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!
Review: I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT. THE SCENERY, THE SONGS, THE PEOPLE, JUST EVERYTHING.
AFTER WATCHING THIS, YOU WILL LOVE THE GOO GOO DOLLS IN A DIFFERENT WAY. THEY ARE SO DOWN TO EARTH AND WARM. I LOVE THEM AND AM LOOKING FORWARD TO GOING TO ALASKA SOME DAY.

Summary: Not really a music video after all!!
Review: I love the Goo Goo Dolls and I bought tis video from Juneau, Alaska, the perfect video? No, not really. It's more of a documentary about Alaska, which includes a couple of bad acoustic renditions of a few of their tunes! I guess if you're a really big fan then go ahead and buy, but if's it's live music you want then ignore this!

Summary: Left wanting
Review: I really wish they had delved more into the band's experiences in Alaska. I felt like there was such a rush job, and that we were missing out on the guys' impressions of such a beautiful land. Face it - if you're watching, you're a fan, and yes, there is some great music included. But I really had the best time when we had a small chance to see the band being themselves for a while... or as close to it as you can get with a camera crew following them around. Watching Johnny interact with the kids on the mud slide, and Robby with the "human toss"... more of the actual experience would have been nice. Why leave us with the feeling that this was a rush job? I have lived all over the world and the biggest thrill I get is going back to the places I lived in as a kid and exploring them, slow and easy and anonymously, as an adult. That's what I would have enjoyed seeing.... a chance to spend a few minutes with a band I feel I can relate to as individuals... other wise, a good DVD. I recommend it for fans.
