great concert, highly recommended DVD...

however, despite amazon assuring it is NTSC format - received it and it is not, it is PAL. Ok since it is regionless and can watch on computer but our DVD player will not play on television. Check to see if your DVD player accepts both formats if you want to see on your TV.

I've been a Christy Moore fan since I first heard "Christy Moore & Friends", an audio cassette that I picked up decades ago. I've since steeped myself in his music, owning every recording, seeing him whenever I can (which truth be told has not been much lately!) "Live In Dublin" brought Christy and Declan to my livingroom in a small town in Arizona - and for awhile I felt I'd crossed the puddle to Dublin. Mercy, what a terrific recording! The performances are moving and sturdy, the songlist satisfying, and Christy's voice is note perfect! Nice that they left the between song patter intact and amazing that they've included a spoken commentary by Christy about the show. I was concerned that the PAL format might not play on my DVD player, but my fears were unfounded. It was fine both on the player in my livingroom, and on the one in my Mac Mini.
If you are a fan, this will be a great addition to your collection.
If you are new to Mr. Moore's music, this is a great place to start.
