3.0 out of 5 stars Great band with technical shortcomings, October 29, 2004

This review is from: Switchfoot - Live in San Diego (DVD)

I have this DVD and I have seen Switchfoot live twice this year, once in a small setting and once in a stadium setting. I think the justified enthusiasm from the album The Beautiful Letdown has spilled over to this DVD, which is lacking in production quality and technical ability.
In concert they can kind of make up for shortcoming this by 'turning the volume up to eleven', but when I can control the volume at home, I find that they are a bit unpolished live.
I really don't think they are on par with, say, U2, in a live setting. People here are rating the album (5 stars) when they are reviewing the dvd (3 stars).

3.0 out of 5 stars The album is better than this DVD, October 26, 2005

This review is from: Switchfoot - Live in San Diego (DVD)

I really enjoyed Switchfoot's CD "The Beautiful Letdown". It is ground breaking album for this up and coming band. Unfortunately, this DVD does not do the best job of representing the band's efforts. As others have noted the sound quality is not great, and the video footage does not capture much of the band's energy. Simply put - it is somewhat boring to watch.

On the positive side, the song list from the concert does include all the best songs from "The Beautiful Letdown". But, I was disappointed that there was not more extra material beyond the concert. There are a few short interviews, and a video, but nothing more. Therefore, I recommend that listeners stick with the CD, it is much better than this DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS DVD ROCKS!!!!, January 14, 2005

This review is from: Switchfoot - Live in San Diego (DVD)

I've heard people say that these totally rock live and it is very true. I got this for christmas and its awesome. I especially loved "Ammunition" when Tim (bassist) makes that huge jump off of Chad's drum set and when Jon (frontman) jumped into the crowd. Everyone was going crazy! i was a little suprised they didn't play Redemption, but then again, Learning to Breathe (the song that took Redemption's place) is a better song anyway. if you are a fan of SWITCHFOOT get this dvd. you'll love it.
