Music/Concert DVDs

My buddy just set up a t.v. in his garage where a bunch of us meet for a poker/b.s. session every week.  So far we've watched Clapton's 2010 Crossroads dvd and The Last Waltz.  We need to expand our library.  Any suggestions?

Re: Music/Concert DVDs

Great thread topic.

Depends on your musical tastes, but one I really enjoyed (assuming you can find it) is Def Leppard's "Live:  In the Round, In Your Face" (1989 I think).  It rocks.

Also, if you can find "Queen: Live at Wembley" (1986), that's a GREAT concert.

I guess I'm stuck in the 80's.  Oh well, there are worse places to get stuck.  smile

America, Jimmy Buffett, and James Taylor all have good concert videos out that I enjoy.

Re: Music/Concert DVDs

I love concert vids so ill just list mine,, also a hair band list but not all

THE WHO -AN AMAZING JOURNEY

POISON - LIVE
DOKKEN - ON NIGHT LIVE (SEMI ACOUSTIC LYNCH STICKS TO HIS STRAT BUT MAN CAN HE PLAY)
MOTLEY CRUE CARNIVAL OF SINS LIVE (NO KIDDIES FOR THIS upper body nudity if ya know what i mean)
KISS UNPLUGGED (If you can get the unedited version from kissology its a lot better, shows the mess ups and stuff)
DIO - LIVE
HEAVY METAL IN BAGDAD - The story of Acrassicauda by Vice Magize

(I will edit later after I look through my DVD collection, this is just off the top of my head)

Is the tv hooked to internet?  Then just about every VH1 BEHIND THE  MUSIC is worth watching.  plus you can find tons of highquality full concerts on youtube also.

Van Halen 5150 toure.  great concert with Sammy at the front and Eddie not drunk.

Re: Music/Concert DVDs

What about The Beatles. I don`t know if Let It Be is on dvd but I remember renting it in the 80s. Woodstock or The Song Remains The Same. I saw them on vhs. If they are on dvd, they are good choices. If you want just a silly story with good music, then the beatles in "HELP" is on dvd. A great movie that is a true story is "GRAND THEFT PARSONS". About the death of Gram Parsons. It`s funny, but it has only a few songs. One of those that seems hard to believe is true but it is.

Re: Music/Concert DVDs

The "Unplugged" series by MTV, in the 90's, was a good musical choice. I am a big fan of Alice In Chains and their Unplugged concert. Nirvana did one just before Cobain died and it is good too. Nirvana's version of "The Man Who Sold The World" is one of my favorite songs.

Of course if you are not a fan of that type of music you may not like them...
