The best thing about Hootie is what is to be seen in this DVD: their live performances. In over a decade, they had yet to release a live DVD or CD; and let me say, it's about time! Darius Rucker has an amazing voice which will show even more in listening to him sing in concert. I have seen them in concert several times, and they are one of the better live bands out there. Last month, they cancelled the show I was to attend, but this DVD has made up for it! I think Hootie fans will agree that this is a real treat.

Hootie and the Blowfish may not be as popular as they were in 1995, but they are still undoubtably a terrific band. Yes, I still like Hootie, and I'm glad that I stuck with their music all these years. I may be a little young to like Hootie, but I grew up listening to them; my brother was a fan and is still a big a Hootie fan as they come. They have grown quite a bit since their first album -- their new songs are a little less Pop and a little more Rock and Country. But they still have their own unique and distinct sound.

This Live show CD/DVD is an excellent illustration of this band's qualities. With great lyrics and fantastic melodies, HATB are one of the best band's to survive the 90's rocket to fame. This CD/DVD combines classics tunes from the 90's as well as songs from their latest ablumn, which are fantastic to hear. If you ever liked HATB, pick this item up and discover why this band continues to impress.

I was at this concert and being a long Hootie fan makes this one for the collection!!!

This is exactly what it says... a live concert that is recent as opposed to the older DVD's that they have out. It is from the "Looking for Lucky" tour.

I thought this was a very good DVD to say the least. The music was good, Darius and the rest of the vocals were really good. The picture quality was good. The song selection was a nice mix of old and newer stuff. Overall I would recommend this DVD if you like Hootie and the Blowfish.
