Their smart, catchy tunes about suburban teenage life caught the ear of a generation, and today the all grown-up Barenaked Ladies are international pop music stars.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy it!!, November 19, 2004

By	Rod Maingot (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews

The back cover advertises live performances of several songs. What you get is an hour-long interview "set against" a few seconds of songs here and there. I don't recommend this, even for die-hard fans. The interview footage is just slapped together and isn't particularly interesting or informative. Spend a few extra dolllars and pick up their concert DVD or video compilation.

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointed, May 29, 2006

By	Paul Matthew Pool "coopoo18" (Lawrence, KS USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Actually, I have to say this is not something worth buying, even if you are a die-hard fan, which I can say without any doubt in my mind, I am. proof? i have drumsticks and picks from countless shows, shirts, cds, posters etc signed by all the ladies, and of course every ladies room cd and ep/demo/yellow tape/itunes recording they have ever put out... and i was truly dissapointed by this DVD, it is advertized as a live show with interviews, and that part is fine, but the only extra feature is you get to watch the interview uncut... no 'maroon foot cream' or DVD-rom features. if you know someone that has it, watch it so that you can say you have seen it. But I wouldn't recomend spending more than five dollars on this BNL item.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Must For Die-Hard BNL Fans, June 28, 2008

By	Arcsis (Ny) - See all my reviews

There's 2 parts: The main video: interview sections & clips from various shows, and the studio interview on it's own. It's very informative, but redundant if you've read the biography by Paul Meyers. In fact, the book goes into more detail about each member & how they join the band.

I enjoyed this DVD, I love the band, I just wish it showed more of their live stuff from early in their career. Best to grab it on netflix unless you're a hardcore BNL fan/collector.
