My luck was shining when I chose this Boyzone DVD to purchase from Amazon.com!!! This is the best concert I've ever seen period!! If you are a Boyzone fan (you probably are if you're reading this) you will absolutely LOVE this DVD! Every song these guys performed was exceptional. They really put out their best effort to make this concert fabulous, and they more than accomplished that feat! There are so many different colors, so many beautiful dancers, so many fantastic musicians, and so many songs I can't begin to say everything I would like in this evaluation. I found out in the video that this concert was performed in Manchester, England in June, 2008. I consider this male Irish male group to be the best of the genre it's in, and the best of any group I've ever heard. There are two CD's inside the case. One CD contains the concert, and the other contains behind the scenes stuff like interviews of the group and preparation for the concert. If you like Boyzone, you'll definitely love this DVD! The sound and video quality are both outstanding. Oh yeah, they also sing 'No Matter What' which is the first song I ever heard them sing and the one that hooked me on them.

I received this DVD for Christmas and really enjoyed it! The concert footage was well done, and gave a great birds-eye view of the full concert. It's a full 2 hour concert, with 29 music selections, though 2 are fillers by the band/dancers while the guys change, they sing most of their greatest hits (Picture of You, Words, Father & Son, No Matter What, Isn't it a Wonder, Love Me For A Reason, You Needed Me, etc) which all were amazing, my favorite moments were "And I" (the guys look happy to be on stage) and the guys singing Ronan's hit "Life is a Rollercoaster" (they were having a blast) as well as their 'famous' medley this time around is Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5 with the guys singing Billie Jean, Bad, The Way You Make Me Feel and Black and White - the guys were having fun and I loved it!

The bonus material is pretty good - a documentary of the guys deciding to reform after 8 years seems honest and direct, and leads up to the concert tour - it gives a good insider view of their comeback. There is also some bonus interviews from the guys, talking about their favorite (original) videos, reforming, and their thoughts on the new tour, which lead up to recording their first new song in 8 years (Love You Anyway) - I wish there were more features, but i'm just being greedy!

Watching this concert was fabulous! It was everything I had hoped for and more. Since Boyzone never performed in America, it is as close as I will probably ever come to seeing them live. I loved every song. You could tell how strong their bond was as a group, now with Stephen's passing, it will remain to be seen where they go from here. I highly recommend this dvd for Boyzone fans.

BZ is a new discovery for me.......and this dvd/concert is really enjoyable to watch, and listen to for all.

Just one question for long time fans or those in the know.......why was NO MATTER WHAT edited for this dvd? Such a beautiful song, and spectacular performance here, but sadly, cut short. ANYONE KNOW?
Thanks!

I have enjoyed Boyzone from their very beginning, as I love all things 'Irish' and was upset when they broke up. On a sudden visit to England, I found out that they were back together....very exciting and a most enjoyable DVD.

excellent DVD by boyzone's concert last summer. while it is a european made DVD, it plays on any DVD player in the US. purchased through importcds. arrived in excellent condition and packaging.

Enjoyed the music, but found the dancing (specially the choreography) unnecessary & distracting, detracting from the enjoyment of the music.

i have purchased this dvd in january 2010. it arrived on time, but the video quality was very low, with lines and pixels, probably due to the fact that the surface of the dvd was scratched and stained. i completed the online procedure to return the dvd for replacement, i have sent the package back to amazon, but to this day (aug2010) i have not received any answer. the first problem i have had with amazon in my first 20 orders, but still a major problem.

I can't say much more about this DVD concert that hasn't already been said. I was never a Boyzone fan when these guys first started out but having seen Stephen Gately perform on his own I thought I would check this out and loved every minute of it. Great show with a great performance by all. Of course Bright Eyes being sung by Stephen is my favorite. Now that Stephen is gone this concert is that much more special.

Not much else to say. Great song choices and quality performance. Also, the service from the sender was ON task.....
