4.0 out of 5 stars Content, Not Show, Review, March 24, 2009

This review is from: Motley Crue: Crue Fest 2008 (DVD)

Every "review" I've seen so far (3/24) has been from people who were at the show but nobody has said anything about the DVD, which is what you're buying right? Unless you're paying $20 to have the bands come and play at your house I guess. So I figured I'll tell you what you're thinking about buying since there's no real description yet from Amazon (although there probably will be by the time this posts... making me look like a bigger idiot).

It's a 2 disc set. On the first disc is Motley's entire 14 song set, from Kickstart My Heart until they close after Home Sweet Home. There's also Tommy T Cam in case you're wondering. On disc 2 you get 2 songs from Trapt (Contagious, Headstrong), 2 from Sixx A.M. (Pray for Me, Life is Beautiful), 3 from Papa Roach (Time Is Running Out, Forever, Last Resort) and 3 from Buckcherry (Lit Up, Sorry, Crazy Bitch). You also get a few bonus bits with a short documentary and 6 of Motley Crue's videos (White Trash Circus, Saints, Primal Scream, Looks That Kill, Live Wire, Kickstart).

So you know the bands, you know the songs, the sound quality is decent (5.1 and stereo) and the video footage was shot with 15 camera angles so you can see it all up close. Lots of value for the money.

5.0 out of 5 stars great live DVD for people who were there and those who missed it, March 26, 2009

This review is from: Motley Crue: Crue Fest 2008 (DVD)

Let me start by saying I was also at Crue Fest 2008, the Maryland Heights (St Louis MO) show to be exact. This might make me a little more biased towards this DVD because it is a great memory for me, being it is a replica of the show I saw.

The mix is well done, very good for a live recording. The only drawback to it is when the crowd is singing along you don't hear them hardly at all, they are edited almost completely out of it. Not a bad thing through out most of the songs but I figured they might boost the audience a bit for the crowd sing a longs a little more. The bands however sound phenomenal, and the choice of songs from all the opening sets were good picks I thought. Very solid video, it is pretty polished.

As was already mentioned in another review, there are 2 discs. Disc 1 is the entire Motley Crue set, beginning to end, and the only weak song on here is Kickstart My Heart. Sadly, as it is the opener, Vince did pretty bad on the vocals here, and I don't recall him doing as poor when I watched them last year. Might have been just been a bad start for him.. The rest of the set is fantastic, vocals and all. Pyros, lights, fire, more pyros, a guitar solo from Mick, Tommy's infamous boob cam, and an encore that ends with Home Sweet Home.

Disc 2 is Trapt, Sixx AM, Papa Roach, and Buckcherry with some backstage/offstage footage clips and interviews with each of them. If you missed the show and like Motley Crue, I would definitely pick this up. If your buying it just for the opening bands, while they sound great there are only a handful of songs on here, so you might want to pass.

This is a must for the crueheads!! Not only I was pleasantly surprised to see that the newer bands sound awesome but Motley Crue still rules!! The boys are still living in the wild side,kicking butt and having a great time,very good piece of work.
