The concert was amazing! She definitely rocked the stage! All the performances were awsome and the best of all: they're all live! - at last. I went to see her when she came to Finland and I loved the show. This DVD is a must have for all Ana fans out there!

The second disc has so many extras that it could've been released seperately. It includes the screen videos from the tour: Seasons Change, Rearview, Time, Underground Army and I Do. And the documentary is also amazing. You'll be able to follow her during the Live At Last Tour and Encore Tour. It includes some never-before-seen performances that she only did on her Encore Tour, such as the performance of "Rearview" (full performance), "One Day In Your Life" (full) and a performance of another song which was new to me, full aswell.

That's not all, the second disc also contains the music videos for Everything Burns, Pieces Of A Dream, I Belong To You, Left Outside Alone (unreleased US version).

Some purchasers have complained about an inability to play this item--with good reason. The DVD I received is not NTSC as listed on Amazon, but a European PAL DVD NOT compatible with standard American DVD players. I was able to watch it on my Mac computer DVD player and a No Regions DVD player I own, but my USA DVD player will NOT play it. Amazon should revised their description of this item to warn purchasers that MOST will not be able to watch it if they live in the USA.

That said, I enjoy Anastacia. She has a powerful, soulful voice, a dynamic and compelling stage presence and a funky, fun-loving band. Not to mention she's quite pulchritudinous. I still can't understand why she hasn't been embraced by her home country. If she was a big hit in the US, maybe there'd be an NTSC DVD that everyone in this country could enjoy.

This lady's got SOUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And, I live in the USA. It works fine in my DVD player.

i love anastacia. LOVE HER. but when bought the DVD, it was not compatible with the three DVD players in our apartment. so i returned it. i found another seller, who assured me it would work. the second DVD did not work either. so sad...but i have hope. i'll keep searching until i have this frickin' DVD. (I'll give it 5 stars since i'm sure it's awesome, though my buying experience is a 1 star...)

This product its unplayable on any DVD Player that I have. Hate that Amazon didnt make the proper disclaimer...

I went back and read the reviews after I could not play this DVD in my player. The description says "All Regions" so I am not happy about the error. I can play it on my MAC so I did see it and it was phenomenal... just wish they would have listed the DVD in the proper region for Europe only players!!

I love Anastacia and was really looking forward to seeing this live concert. Sadly, it will not play in players not set up for PAL, which are most of the DVD players in the US. Other reviews of this product have said the same thing and Amazon continues to sell it in the US. On Anastacia's website, it even says this DVD is NOT available in North America. Nowhere on Amazon's website does it indicate that this DVD only comes in PAL, not NTSC. Now I have to go through the hassle of returning it to Amazon. Wake up folks!

After reading other reviews I purchased anyhow. It works, it's a great concert filmed in Germany, and she is without a doubt one of the best singer in the world! My wife and kids even love her music now!

I didn't see the "PAL" word when i bought this item. I guess it's a great DVD.

I think everyone has said what there is to say about this awesome show. Anastacia rocks. The live versions of songs are barely recognisable - and that is GOOD! I am lucky in that I am in a PAL coutry, so compatibility isn't an issue. (Though I find it strange that the US doesn't sell gear that is compatible with PAL countries, as all the TVs and layers in PAL countries will play NTSC as well.

My beef is that is it only Dolby Stereo (although it is a good mix). Why have such a great video production and not make the sound 5.1, both Dolby and DTS?
