It's so different when you see an artist perform in front of you & ROD STEWART was truly a treat to watch in this DVD. For a man who's over 50 he sure didn't act like one and that's a compliment coz you will see how much fun he was having in this concert!

I wasn't really exposed to his songs, while I was growing up, for the main reason that I wasn't the "rock" type of person but with the old songs of his that he included in this DVD... This DVD surely rocks my collection of favorites !

5.0 out of 5 stars Cross over Rod, February 13, 2003

I have never been a Rod Steart fan... Until now... I caught the CD .. and the DVD was a must. Rod takes the opportunity to "cross over" and bridge the gap of at least a couple of generations. The shots of todays audience holding hands... cheek to cheek is back and warmer than ever. He provides todays listeners with the common sense to listen to the lyrics and understand the meaning of them. One of the most noteable and less obvious is the lack of "brass and amplified percussion" in the band... mostly strings with a rythmn section highlighted by a single Trumpet or Sax solo to enhcnace the arrangement.The entire production is well executed and the background singers and set compliment the entire production. Rod has made the transition well and he will no doubt gather a whole new "army" of followers with this one. Well done Rod... Congratulations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rod and his top-notch musical ladies, May 25, 2003

I can never get enough of Rod. In this DVD, not only does he share his timeless talent with us, but he has some fabulous talent up there sharing the stage with him. His beautiful and sultry bari-sax player takes your breath away with her smoothness and style. At first I thought she was just a plant in the band, you know, eye candy with non-stop legs, but when she got up to play, she blew me away. Talk about hot legs! In addition, I remembered seeing his mandolin-playing multi-talented beauty on the stage a couple years ago, and I was so pleased to see her still playing with Rod's band on this DVD. She can do anything and do it well. What raw talent he has uncovered! His back-up singers have always been top of the line, and they continue to add pizazz to his show. I'm so delighted to see Rod sharing the spotlight with his musically gifted stagemates. They always seem to be having a blast on stage together.
