5.0 out of 5 stars Bad news spreadhead, ya gotta get the dvd...., December 18, 2002

This review is from: Widespread Panic - Panic in the Streets (DVD)

If you already own the vhs to this great show, ...and if you have a dvd player, it's time to shell out another ...[undiscloseddollar amount]. The picture quality is better, the audio sounds much better with a 5.1 mix. The main reason though, if better sound and video aren't enough, is that as a bonus they included the wonderful long out of print "Live at the Georgia Theatre" show as well!!! Great early Panic performance! Five stars is putting it mildly. Buy this now!

5.0 out of 5 stars No Title Could Be More Appropriate, December 23, 1998

This video commemorates Music Day in Athens, GA April 18, 1998 - specifically hometown music heroes Widespread Panic and their record-breaking CD release party. For the group's first-ever live album "Light Fuse, Get Away" they decided to throw a little party by having a free show. Well, 70,000 to 100,000 people showed from all over the country. I personally attended with devoted fans from Montana, Colorado, and Kansas. Panic friend and Academy Award winner Billy Bob Thornton directs this concert video and intersperses scenes from Music Day and locations in and around Athens itself. Memorable scenes include Athens Mayor Gwen O'Looney urging the crowd to not "destroy [her] town"; a wedding that took place in Athens earlier in the day; and lead singer John Bell (JB) singing the national anthem at the UGa-Kentucky baseball game earlier in the day.

This is a must have if you like the Panic, and if you've just heard them, this is your opportunity to see the boys in action. Also comes with a four-track CD from the 4/18/98 show.

5.0 out of 5 stars "The medicine took", April 23, 2000

This video is a must for all panic lovers. The video compares to bringing an actual live Panic concert straight to your living room. This video will never get old, as never do Panic shows or their music. For those who cannot attend every show: "Light the fuse and get away!"
