- Don't be afraid...

you won't be disappointed. This dvd is great. I actually live in Vegas, but an age limit prohibited me from attending this show. I'm jealous of all who went, especially those who were just fans of "I Try." This is the kind of concert I've dreamed of seeing. She says that her and the band prayed for "perfection," and they got it! It's funky, it's beautiful. The sound and picture are in excellent quality. She did all of my favorites. Here's the song list.

1. Sex-O-Matic Venus Freak

2. When I See You (incorrectly listed as "When I See You Again")

3. Relating To A Psychopath

4. Don't Come Around

5. Caligula

6. Why Didn't You Call Me

7. Things That Made Me Change

8. Hey Young World Part 2

9. I've Committed Murder

10. Do Something

11. Demons

12. Sexual Revolution

13. Oblivion

14. I Try

15. Sweet Baby

16. She Ain't Right For You

17. I Can't Wait To Meetchu

18. The Letter

Buy this dvd. You won't regret it.

- Great Show

The second part is much better than the first and worth much more than the small price for this DVD. Macy is not just a real Diva, but a real artist who instinctively rejects routine. So for those expecting to hear the songs as she recorded them in the studio, it may be a disappointment. But she does much more, creating almost entirely new songs from just a few familiar notes. A great rocker said once that it is imoral to sell the same product twice (studio and concert). Macy avoids this pitfall with style.

- Great deal

I got this DVD for Christmas and have to say that I am quite pleased with it. I have seen Macy perform live and watching this DVD was a great reminder of the show. She sounds as good live as she does on her CD's. You can always count on Macy to put on a great show. This DVD is a real value compared to some of the other DVD concerts that I have bought in the past. I gave it only four stars as opposed to five simply because of the lack of extra's. Basically the only extra on this is a slide show. I would love to see some things like back stage footage, etc... This is still a great buy to see a great live performance.

- Love it!

Macy and her band are in top form, creating some great music and keeping the energy going. For what more can I ask?

- Boring..

I think I made it about half way through this DVD before I yanked it out of my DVD player, repackaged it, and put it back up for sale. If it doesn't sell right away I think I'll give it to my son as a play toy. I bought this show hoping to see Macy perform her songs somewhat in the way they are done on her cd's. I guess I was asking too much. This show is a very small band on a small crowded stage, leaving barely enough room for her bandmates to dodge her poofy hair that takes up most of the screen. The band also appears to have been thrown together and are playing with eachother for the first time. No chemistry at all between performers. The song arrangements are all wierd, they are interupted by to many breakdowns, some to the point where I didn't recognize the song till half way through. Most songs are performed at a much, much faster tempo than played on the cd, and Macy talks half of her lyrics instead of actually singing. That is when she can muster enough strength to mutter out some words. If it wasn't for the overbearing backup singers there would hardly be any singing at all. I guess I am giving this such a bad review because it is my pet peave to see a band change the way they perform there songs when they get in front of a live audience. There is a reason the songs were popular in the first place, because of the way they were performed and recorded on the disc. I have little respect for a band that cannot reproduce thier successful studio sound on stage. If you are like me and are looking for that Macy Gray sound that you got to know and like from her cd's, don't bother with this DVD.
