Though it is an interesting event, I was not as entertained this time around, but the fun still comes through.  Purists might not like it, but it has its moments.

 

The 1080i 1.78 X 1 image was shot in digital High Definition recently and is the one big improvement over the Video Black weak DVD which was pale and could have been better.  There are detail limits here, but color is consistent and depth is not bad.  The sound is here in weak PCM 2.0 Stereo, Dolby Digital 5.1 that is limited and DTS-HD MA (Master Audio) lossless 5.1 that sounds jigsawed together and less natural than it should sound.  Overall, these are choices no better than the DVD and says something about the limits of the soundmaster of the concert that are not too good.  Extras are the same as the DVD.
