The tour DVD takes fans behind the scenes to experience more than just the onstage anarchy. Sprinkled between songs from bands like headliner the Used, My Chemical Romance, Nicky P and Atreyu are band interviews, pre-show rituals and a view of life on the road with the groups. The professionally shot aerial views allow glimpses of the sea of crowd-surfers without the need for Dramamine. And, the comical definitions from metal fans and "the pit" are worth the time spent not fast-forwarding through commentary.
As for the music, the lyrics leave a lot for the imagination to translate. Beyond the yelling is an onslaught of impressive guitar riffs and drum solos that may otherwise go unnoticed on CD.
The DVD makes a nice marketing tool for the tour, leaving fans with just enough random facts and insight to want to taste a little live chaos for themselves.
DVD Grade: B
