Product Description

This two DVD set encompasses two separate films, A Weekend at the Greek (shot at Berkeley's famed Greek Theatre at the beginning of his US tour to promote his latest album In Between Dreams) and Live in Japan (shot in Japan at the end of the worldwide tour to promote his second album On and On) as well as over 30 minutes of bonus footage. Directed by The Malloys, both films blend concert performance with intimate interviews and backstage footage.

Live in Japan captures Jack's band in its original trio form, with Bassist Merlo Podlewski and drummer Adam Topol touring Japan in front of rapt Japanese audiences performing selections from Brushfire Fairytales and On and On as well as an early version of “Banana Pancakes” which appears on In Between Dreams. Donavon Frankenreiter and Money Mark make guest appearances.

Shortly after the completion of the Japanese tour, the band convened in Hawaii to record his new album In Between Dreams, with Zach Gill from Animal Liberation Orchestra adding piano and accordion. A Weekend at The Greek captures the band's expanded sound and 4 piece lineup ( Gill joined as a touring member of the band) as well as sit ins from the growing Brushire Records family (G. Love, ALO, Money Mark and Matt Costa ). Filmed over two nights at one of the band’s favorite venues, the film captures the magical connection between artist and audience, as well as providing glimpses at the creative process that yielded those crowd favorites. The total running time of the two disks exceeds 3 hours, and both feature stereo and 5.1 audio .

2.0 out of 5 stars Dissapointing, and I'm a fan!, December 20, 2006
By D. Bauer (San Pedro) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Well, I've fallen in love with Jack Johnson's music couple of months ago and I really LOVE album In Between Dreams, heard it probably fifty times already. So I went and bought this DVD hoping it would be something special, just like JJ's music. But I could not believe! This is NOT a concert show, this is just a documentary with songs in between! What sense does it make to interupt the song line just to tell viewers things that could easily be put in a separate chapter on a DVD? Are you looking forward to hear JJ's best hit Sitting, Waiting, Wishing? Go on then! After one minute, this song is interupted by JJ's explanation of how was video for this song made! Then you go back to the song but guess what - not where it stopped before but almost to the end!
Well, some songs are good, I must admit - loved Banana Pancakes, No Other Way and Better Together.
I'm giving 2 stars only because I love his music so much but I don't think I'm gonna watch this DVD again.
If you want to see what a concert DVD should look like go for David Gray - Live At the Point, but the best one out there is definetely Seal In Paris - that's by far the best thing I've seen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great concert, March 19, 2006
If you are a fan of Jack Johnson's music this is a great concert. He puts on an awesome performance with all of the best songs and also gives the audience a look into what goes on backstage and before the performance.
