Unless you have all their other dvds I would not make this my first PJ dvd, get Live At The Garden or Touring Band 2000 instead, but if you do have them then get it because its definitely worth having if you are a true fan.

its a great show, probably highlighted by the war tag on daughter, ed gets so emotional that it makes the DVD for me.
but all it is is the show, no extras, and the picture is not the greatest, but i think they meant for it to feel like a bootleg.
but definatly worth it to a big fan

Its a good buy, and its great if you want to get the feel of a live show. I'd only buy it after the other DVDs though.

And yeah, "Daughter" does make the performance.

I was there, me and a buddy sneaked in through the back door, we missed the first couple of songs, but I was so drunk I blacked out and don't remember any of the show apart from managing to sneak in and ordering a drink in the green room before we walked in to the actual show. Great story but still regret getting in but not remembering, all I have is the DVD as memories :roll:

Ever noticed how moody Stone looks in that Showbox performance.

Maybe he argued with Ed over the setlist!
