1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of money, February 26, 2002

This review is from: Tainted - The Unauthorized Biography (DVD)

I'm in the Navy on nuclear submarines and I'd heard about a new STAIND DVD hitting the stores before my most recent deployment. Before I left I'd heard that the band wanted to add more content and make it a dual-DVD set which pushed the release date back to 1st Quarter 2002. I got back from my deployment and in my excitement, mistook the Stained: Tainted DVD as that product.
This DVD is a huge letdown in every way. No music from the band, shady combinations of home video quality and black & white photography, cheesy interviewers with Springfield DJs who's half-sister's, brother's, nephew's cousin used to deliver Chinese take-out to the band, etc.
My ONLY consolation for my fellow STAIND fans out there is the comfort of knowing that STAIND is soon to release THEIR official 2-disc DVD set very soon. Keep the faith.

1.0 out of 5 stars BEWARE ALL STAIND FANS, November 25, 2001

DO NOT purchase this if you are looking for information on the band. This was poorly made. It does not talk about the band much at all. This is more of a how to video for aspiring musicians using Staind as a referrence, and poorly at that. They spend time interviewing people, in which only two of them have ever met the band. They actually put a guy on there that tells about the first time he saw the band and it was on MTV, the video for "Outside", which most of you know was just this past spring. There is no music or performance footage of the band. The background music is terribly cheesy, and the whole thing is just a waste of hard earned money. Beware...

1.0 out of 5 stars buying this would be a big mistake, February 1, 2002

That DVD is such a disgrace. It was so bad that it was insulting. It had no real material, they interviewed people who were unrelated to Staind, and pieces of information given in the video I later found to be incorrect. This was absolutely terrible. Please do not buy this. I lost ...money on this... and gained nothing from it what-so-ever.

I was totally looking forward to watching a wonderful and informative dvd... but this was quite the opposite. I absolutely love Staind, but this was just a sad attempt at making something related to them so people would buy it.. (or so it very much seems).
