If you like RBF you will love this album(s). All their greatest hits and some extensions of Suburban Rhythm (like a Rap, Country, Metal, The Strokes, Disco, and Punk versions) I have this CD through Yahoo's Music Unlimited ToGo service and I am still going to buy this for the DVD.
If you have never heard Reel Big Fish be aware they are explicit. If you can get past that everything is great, the beat is very catchy and you will find yourself humming, tapping, or even maybe singing it through your day getting stares every time you walk by someone singing "I want you girlfriend to be my girlfriend".

I'm a radio DJ & I've heard and own my share of Live cd's... now if you aren't even a fan of Ska music, you have to give it up to the producer, mixer, & all the production people because this is by far thee best live album I have ever heard! Add to the fact that the band is high energy, funny and damn talented! This is one of the best CD's I own. (plus it's a double disc with DVD) So you just can't go wrong!

On A Side note, if you're a RBF fan, DO NOT GET THE GREATEST HITS ALBUM... the audio suck, and it was made and released with out the bands permission.

Best RBF album yet. Hilarious and great music. A must for any RBF fan or any human actually.

No matter how long you've been listening to RBF, this album is sure to please. With awesome recordings and live antics, it appeals to any kind of listener

For older fans, it showcases their best work, with fresh recordings and pleasurable stylized versions of songs. These unique performances give a variety to those who already own the original CDs, and make the purchase worth it.

For new listeners, it invites you to see the breadth of their work. And, like a live show, it builds as it goes on, so listeners are encouraged to listen through to the end. This compelling nature of each track leading to another gives their music a great, fresh feel.

For the low cost of this album, and the immense length of it (over 3.5 hours), including a DVD with an entire show, make this a great deal all around. I can't think of another live album I've enjoyed so much.

This double live album/live dvd is amazing to say the least. Since I'm going to and RBF/Streetlight Mainfesto concert next month I decided to check out how they sounded live and I was not dissapointed by any means. They immediatly start off wiht high energy and keep on going strong for the entire show. They have a lot of fun and the songs sound great I recommend this for and RBF or Ska fan.

These guys are great and they are hilerious. This cd has alot of great songs like Beer, their cover of Take On me which is better than the original in my opinion and much more. It also comes with a DVD which has a concert in it and tells you how they made the CD. Overall great album BUY IT!!!!!!!

I've followed Reel Big Fish for a decade now, and this album is their definitive collection for a number of reasons. First, the sound and production quality is superb. These guys put on a great live show and it really comes through on the record. Second, the album contains two discs full of music AND a full concert dvd to go along with it. It's more than enough music to introduce anyone to what this band has to offer. Finally, the album includes a lot of back-and-forth comedic banter between the bandmates, which adds to the entertainment value of the record.

Buy this album and I highly doubt you'll be disappointed. Standouts include Trendy, S.R. (the many versions of), Take On Me, Sell Out, and pretty much every other track on the album.

This is Reel Big Fish at the top of their performance. They sound as great as in studio, they joke all the time and have an incredible contact with the audience. They're funny and professional. Highly recommended if you are a fan or even if you like listening to funny dancing music.

Oh 'tis true. If that line from this album doesn't sum up this band perfectly. I've listened to all the RBF studio albums but have never once seen/heard them live either in person or on an album. Listening to 'S.R.' had to be the highlight of the album for me--driving down the road laughing and giddy with anticipation while other drivers probably stared at me in minor puzzlement.

The energy is amazing here, and the set list is a nice cross-section of the albums, plus some covers and improvisations. There definitely is a lot of foul-mouthed-ness, but not unexpected as these guys have never made any overtures at being anything less than raw, unbridled, fun-loving, turn-our-pain-into-rocking-fun-tunes musicians. Can't wait to see them live in person now.

Reel Big Fish sounds much better live than in the studio. Also, 30+ of Reel Big Fish's greatest songs in one album is a steal.
