Listener Reviews & Comments
For all of us living in countries that the Indigo Girls don't seem to grace with their presence, this video release is a God send. It's a concert video interspersed with interview and backstage clips. It lasts a good 91 minutes, which of course is never enough for us obsessives! I have the DVD version and I was very impressed with the picture quality and the sound. The sound is simply amazing!! In my short experience with DVDs, this has got to be the first one that's made me sit up and take notice of the full Dolby Digital mix. Throughout, there are clearly different sounds coming from each speaker. There is superb separation in sound with Amy clearly coming out of the left speaker and Emily coming out of the right; the positions they normally stand on stage. The setlist is heavily skewed towards the Come on now social album, but the Girls explained in an interview clip that they tend to fill half of their set with new songs if they're touring on the back of a new album release. And although I'm not the biggest fan of that album, seeing the songs performed live has given me a new impetus to revisist the album. I felt that the cameras appeared to favour Emily a lot more than Amy in this video. There are some nice close ups of her fast fingers at work during her blistering guitar solos. Amy looked very intense during many songs and almost scared me when she stared right into the camera. Ooh, those eyes!! The interview clips were great, with the Girls talking about their fans, their relationship, their activism and their philosophy among other things. They answered a lot of questions that I think all fans want to ask. I do have a couple of reservations about the video though. Firstly that the video is too slickly edited. No in between song banter or even guitar changes were left for us to see. OK, they may seem superfluous to non fans, but I think those things add character to the show. Secondly, we all know that the Girls enjoy a special relationship with their audience, yet I feel that this video doesn't convey this at all. Probably a result of the editing, but there was also a significant absence of audience shots. However, regardless of my reservations, this video is a great way to enter the world of Indigo and see what great musicians the Girls are!
