Purchased this blu-ray to add to my blu-ray concert collection. It is excellent. Great song selection. One of my favorites is the cover of Lets Dance. If you like Rob Thomas, you should enjoy this!

I listen to it all, well not the crap music, all these spoiled pop stars should be executed for the crimes they've committed against the ART... Anyway....This is real music people!! I have no idea what the other retard was talking about.. Rob being pale and what not, WTF?!! This is a MUSIC DVD!! The guy can straight up sing, if you weren't aware of that already... Not only that he also plays a number of different instruments during the show, his band looks pumped, and they own the crowd with every single performance. This DVD is OUTSTANDING! If your a Matchbox 20 fan you will love this DVD and for 17 dollars on Blu Ray it's a steal! I'm not going to get into the specifics of individual things, just go to [...] and type in "Rob Thomas Red Rocks" and see for yourself. It's clear that there a lot of people in this world who just have no taste in anything; music, culture, clothing, etc... I'm sure the previous reviewer is one of those people, one of those robots. I mean how superficial can you be, "he was pale"... An opinion, a statement like that just makes clear why there should be laws against simple minded people's allowance to reproduce, let alone leave reviews on Amazon...

Get it and enjoy, I put it in daily and get random stuff done around the house just listening to the music... This was much better than the John Mayer DVD, which was good, the acoustic set in the beginning was great, but nothing like what Rob brings throughout this entire concert. This is a right up there with Peal Jam's "Immagine in Cornice"... My personal opinion of-course... :)

Distressed!1 Disappointed?!! I did not know that BluRay discs had various world codes and that America & Australia consequently were not in the same code region..... so I'm a sad sack because I can't even play it on my Aussie devices...............but had opened the box, so probably can't return it, and am desperate to have it, so have sent for a DVD now. More cost. ARRGH!!

The concert, captured as a Soundstage production, exhibits the expected video and sound quality from the bluray disk. No complaints there. I just didn't like it. Not nearly as good as the Matchbox Twenty Soundstage concert I have seen on cable. Rob looks old and pale and I'm just not impressed with the songs presented. I'm not really a big fan of Rob's solo work as much as his Matchbox Twenty stuff, but he does some of both. The best song on the disk is a David Bowie cover. I doubt I will watch it again, whereas the Matchbox Twenty show I have watched many times on my DVR and still enjoy that immensely.
