This is a really good concert! These guys are really funny. A couple of things that make me crazy is the fact that the picture doesn't seem to be that great for blu-ray, and the audio is not even in digital. The audio and picture are still pretty good but not for blu-ray. This would have passed more for a good regular dvd concert. Still really good concert, and it is worth buying.

This is a film about the greatest and best band ever recorded in the history of recording technology.

This is a fantastically real behind the scenes look at the D on world tour during the opening of and unfortunate flop of their film "The Pick of Destiny." If you are a D fan, this along with the "Complete Masterworks" are a must have. This film, the more serious of the two chronicles their world tour from a completely candid perspective. You will see a side of D you have never seen before and will probably never see again. The second disc in this two disk set includes the concert itself.

If you do not own the "Complete Masterworks" I recommend it first as it is classic D at their best. This set "The Complete Masterworks 2" is more serious look at the trials and tribulations of the band during the tour, release of their film and the promotional engagements. I loved it. It was much better than "Cats." I am going to see it again and again.

Jack Black strikes again with this concert that is beautifully choreographed and put together. It sucks you in with laughs and rock from the moment the stage lights up. Having it on Blu Ray to experience the beautiful picture quality is the icing on the cake!

Can it get any better?

NOPE.

Well, at least not after this DVD came out and rocked the World and the "D" went all electric---in a good way---for the latter half.

Going through "the hits"---if one should call 'em that---to an adoring audience, JB and KG simply stole the show. If not for "Lee", otherwise known as "Satan", "Bigfoot", "The Metal", etc., and "the Band" we would have had pretty much "Vol. I" only with a slight redux.

Not the case here. Sharper, better recordings and more "toit", the "D" have never sounded nor look---er, ok---so they've NEVER sounded better. The only down is the lame humor with "the Band" in Character when they first meet in Hell. The awkward scene about why the "Band"---Col. Sanders and Charlie Chaplin---are in Hell is just about the only unfortunate part of the whole DVD.

But...I can live with that.

You feel like you're with the guys on the stage. Camerawork is awesome and there's just BARELY enough audience shots to involve you, and it never crosses the line into "too much", where you're just praying they don't show the fat chick doing the butt bump with her equally round sister for too long (OK, so there's never really any fat chicks shown. I was only using that as a hypothetical example---hmmm....coincidence? I think not...)

Highlights are Wonderboy, "Saxophone", Beelzeboss, "The Metal", and of course the ephemeral "Greatest Song in the World" but the whole thing is a rollicking "Tribute" (like how I did that just then? ok...ok...bad...sorry) from beginning to end.

Put the kids to bed, snuggle up with those you love, and get down with the "D". If you weren't a fan, you will be licking the sweat off of the D by the end of the show. It never gets old, and the Blu-Ray treatment is just what Satan ordered for the "World's Greatest Acoustic Part Time Heavy Metal Band who are Also Actors" band knows simply as:

Tenacious D: JB/KG ... Don't fight it. Give in to it. Live the Dream with the D.

As fun as the first one but with a hell more extras and the tour of the Concert is hillarious... Excellent

Purely looking at this as a concert DVD it's great. Though i wish it would've included some more extras, such as interviews and commentary. Also Tenacious D seems to have excluded their hilarious webisodes for Pick of Destiny from both the DVD for that movie and for this DVD, what gives? especially since they've since taken them down from the movie site.

I'm nitpicking though, this is really a must buy if you're a die hard fan. If you aren't then really this isn't the DVD for you. The concert is chock full of references and inside jokes only fans will get.

If you're a Tenacious D fan read on. If not, well... you've been missing out for years and need to go buy their album and first masterworks.


This is an easy purchase for any D fan. They play ALL of their songs. You'll be impressed by the quality of their live perfomace. It's almost like one gigantic skit and is constantly funny. If I say more it's a spoiler. The price is right and you'll get your money's worth easily.

Stop reading and start buying WITH MIND BULLETS... that's telekenisis Kyle :)

All I can say is that this video provides life's lessons to get in the lady's pants. Buy it! Believe me! It works!

As stated, I give this product a 10! I love Tenacious D, they are hilarious, the concert is hilarious, and the mini documentary gives the viewer and inside look on the life of tenacious d after their first movie. Great quality (BluRay) and Shipping was extremely fast. Highly recommend!

I saw the D when they were in concert in L.A. a few years back. They do a good job capturing the stage show.

But, my favorite part of the blu-ray is the documentary they did about their whirlwind tour during the release of "The Pick of Destiny." It's very funny and interesting, and it also gives a great insight into the real lives of JB and Mr. Gass

The other extras (some new videos and some of their live performances) are great as well. The menu is interesting and funny and the whole package was great.

I can only hope that they put out "The Complete Masterworks 1" out on blu-ray in the future. [...]
