Summary: Can I give 6 stars to this one?
Review: SIMPLY AMAZING.

No need to elaborate - just imagine the best of the Pet Shop Boys, performed live and creatively, with outstanding sound and visual effects. If you don't know the Pet Shop Boys, buy this and you'll become a fan. For the fans... this is a jewel.

Summary: They got me !!
Review: The Pet Shop Boys Montage Tour is a 2001 DVD with live songs played by the group in their 1999/2000 world tour, but almost all songs come from their US and UK venues. The DVD is as good as it could be and portrays the duo from England as one of the most important musicians from Europe.
In fact, both Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe, when wigless, look like any chief executive officer from some multinational company; but they are much more than that. They are professional performers who aptly convey to their loyal audience rather simple songs in the very same way they were recorded in the studio, alternating dramatic and profound melodies and lyrics (e.g., "Young Offender"), with joyful ones overflowing with the exhilarating pleasure of living (e.g., "That is the way life is"), and some even which combines joyfulness with seemingly harmless martial overtones (e.g., "Go West").
The backstage projections of slides, and images from films are a show in itself, specially the ones that stupendously backs the song "Young Offender", inquisitive to any one in the audience and at home.
The Pet Shop Boys are backed by the vocals of the so-called "New York City boys", a group of very competent and energetic black singers (and dancers), and by the stunningly beautiful voice of the black female singer Sylvia Hason-James.
The enthusiasm of the whole group radiates to the public and the outcome is sheer ecstasy almost from beginning to end. This DVD is a must both for fans of the band as for any one who, like myself, listened in the radio the songs from the group but never dared to buy anything from them for home audition. I don't feel disappointed in any way. I got what I wanted.
As a minor flip-side, some of the visual effects are sometimes outdated, as if produced some 20 years ago. But in the end, despite not being a fan of the band, I got totally overwhelmed by the sheer intensity and enthusiasm conveyed by the band.

Summary: WELL MANUFACTURED CONCERT - DVD
Review: This DVD gets yourself into the PSB Nightlife tour through the screen. I'm sure you're wondering 'What do you mean with "through the screen" ?'. That means that in this DVD you won't see a typical filmed gig, instead of this you'll be watching a mixture between a normal filmation and the graphics that were flashed into the stage during the concert, making this DVD rather strange for some people and rather interesting for others.

Apart from the visuals, it comes with all the songs played during the tour - and the sound quality is excellent. The extra contents aren't anything superb but worth to have a look. It includes the 3 videos for the singles of the 'Nightlife' album, nothing special when you have the videos on the CD single editions too.

In spite of the extra content, it's worth to have a good souvenir of the 'Nightlife' era. I recommend this DVD as much more essential than PSB latest album 'Release'.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great DVD, very innovative
Review: This DVD is very well put together.
The sound is excellent: there is a surround sound mix included and it is all very clear. The video comprises a montage (hence the name) of the live gigs, webcasts, swirly computer graphics and the projections that were originally displayed in the gig.

For once a pop artist has been innovative in their DVD: if you're a Pet Shop Boys fan then you *must* own this DVD! Very highly recommended.

Review: this is a great dvd if you like to do aerobic exercise,such as treadmill or exercise bike, I listen to 3 or 4tacks each session I do "Go West" ,"Being Boring", "New York City Boy" and "Always on my mind" are but several of the great tracks.Their other dvd Somewhere# also has good tracks,its more of a true live version (sort of unnplugged driving disco music) These are both great dvd's. Another good exercise ,very up,concert is Roxy Musics.
