Description :
IT’S TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE...but it IS!! Multi-Platinum rockers Simple Plan are bringing you ALL of their hits...and then some...all in one perfect package. The chart-topping fi ve piece have sold over 3 million albums in the U.S. and over 5 million worldwide. Their most recent album Still Not Getting Any hit #3 on Billboards Top 200 and they are at it once again...! The Highly Anticipated release LIVE FROM THE HARD ROCK - in which a 30 minute special was previously aired on MTV, with repeats to follow - will include 14 of the bands MEGA-HITS - all LIVE such as "Perfect," "I’d Do Anything," "Addicted," "Welcome To My Life," "Untitled (How Could This Happen To Me?)," etc. The CD will also be enhanced with 3 Live video performances from The Hard Rock.Review - Amazon.com :
Culled from a concert/MTV broadcast recorded at Orlando's Hard Rock club, Montreal's Simple Plan ably show here why they've bubbled to the top of a crowded pack of contemporary punk-pop contenders. No hand-wringing, emocore angst or mock street ‘tude for vocalist Pierre Bouvier; he's too busy prodding the crowd into good-natured sing-alongs of band hits like "Addicted" and "Worst Day Ever" like a hyperactive cheerleader. His bandmates thrash and harmonize away behind him with equal zeal, interjecting an infectious energy to even the band's darker moments – though "darker" is a decidedly relative term in the impossibly effervescent Simple Plan universe – like "Me Against the World" and "God Must Hate Me." Simple Plan bristles here with enough boundless energy to make Green Day envious, even if they scrupulously avoid the latter's penchant for provocative smarts in the bargain. But then songs like "Crazy" (also featured here in an earnest acoustic version exclusive to this set) underscore that Simple Plan succeeds by tapping into the timeless, innocent hopes and fears of its largely teen audience with music that's both punk anxious and bubblegum sweet. --Jerry McCulleyCustomer review - 2005-12-05
- Awesome CD!SP rocks on this CD because they are excellent live performers! This CD is my favorite because they don't hold back and just unleash with the vocals and music and really show how amazingly talented they all really are. I saw them in concert after hearing this CD and WOW!!! They give 100% out there for their fans, and it's awesome to have a CD to capture a little bit of that. The music blew us away and I can't say enough about this band. I have all their albums now after seeing them live. Hard Rock Live is still my favorite one. Check it out!

- HRL is a must!!!I was at this concert & it was awesome! We are so excited that SP & MTV have released the show on CD & DVD (special edition fan pack). The guys looked & sounded great that night in Orlando. This is an awesome buy for the biggest & smallest Simple Plan fans.

- Best Live Band...EverFirst of all, let me say that this is not the best live performance by this band that I have seen. That does NOT mean it wasn't great because it was. Its just that it in no way compares to other shows they've put on...shows that I've been to. If you're judging the band by this performance, see them live and compare it to this and you'll see how amazing Simple Plan is live. I've been a fan of Simple Plan for almost a year now and I was counting down the days until this CD came out. I got the fan pack and the DVD is great. The songs that stood out the most on this CD would have to be God Must Hate Me, Addicted and I'm Just a Kid. God Must Hate Me is just a great song and I love the drumming that goes on before they get into the actual song. Addicted is probably my favorite song by them. Great sound and I must say, the fact that David has a solo makes it even better. His voice is amazing. If you don't believe me, listen again. He has great talent. That's part of the reason I love I'm Just a Kid...because he sings the first chorus. And he sang it perfectly. That's just a great song. One last song that stood out was I'd Do Anything. It's so fast and it's really energetic and I think they perform it well.
All in all, I definately love this CD. They are my favorite band, no one compares to them. The only reason I rate it 4 stars is because it seemed like Pierre's voice wasn't that strong and it does not show their highest level of performance. Again, if you like theis band just a little bit, I recommend seeing them live...you will not believe how good their live shows are. Andddd they are horribly nice to their fans.
Again...this is a GREAT cd.

- Funny; good perfromanceThis CD is great, even for people who don't like the sound of a live show. Most of the songs sound the same as they do on the albums, and some sound better. Pierre really is a "hyperactive cheerleader," but that's not such a bad thing when you're playing for a few thousand people. There are sing-alongs (Perfect), and screaming contests (I'm Just a Kid). Many funny moments, like David yelling at all the guys in the crowd to "grab their balls and make some noise," Pierre saying that he wants to make out with the crowd, and David calling their first record "No Pads, No Helmets, Just Bizzles." The CD is also enhanced with two live videos, Shut Up and Jump.
