The video quality is lousy because of the position of the taper: He is located at the very side of the stage off Adam' side. the real drawback is that a lot of people are located in front of him even though he films from an upper rank. Therefore, a lot of heads are in the picture throughout the concert. During the first two songs all you can see is bodies and the lightning rig. After that you see most of the time stage totals with distant views on the band members. Details can't be seen and the camera is bumped over a few times. Also, there are quite some edits, clipping off parts of the songs. The sound is good and flawless except for a few dropouts.

The bonus tracks,though, make up for this to some extent.
