VHS Movie Reviews of Matchbox Twenty - Live from Australia

Movie Review: Hey! Where's the DVD???
Summary: 5 Stars

The camera work for the multiple concert footage of "Busted" was one of the highlights for me (you can tell it's more than one concert because Rob's outfit changes) as it made the song even more intense and jarring than a "straight" version. It's a great "front row" live concert experience (I've been to a concert here in the US, and I got nose bleed seats. The sound and experience was great, but they looked like ants.) Anyway, this video is worth watching just for the covers alone: I really enjoyed "Don't Let Me Down", featuring Kyle on vocals, and I wish I could have "Time After Time" on CD!

The conversation about the Rolling Stones during the end credits was very funny, but in a way also helps to keep you grounded -- when you're a young female and really like a band, you can start to idolize the members. Yet here and throughout the video they're shown as regular guys, rather than being glamorized as rock gods or something creepy like that. That's one of best parts about this video and this band: they're you're average, silly, musical geniuses. ;-)

The music videos are a big plus. But Rob and his eyeliner.... Maybe I should take back the comment about him being down to earth? Ha. However, I have to say it, the "Long Day" video is kind of stupid. It makes no sense, and you see the actors more than you see Rob or the band. Rob's haircut is also awful. "Push" and "Real World" are my favorites of the set.

But here's the Big Gripe: Why isn't this on DVD? Hello? I have not bought the video -- I've watched a library copy. My VCR is a piece of junk, and can't handle rewinding and fastforwarding around a video, so I can't jump to the music videos, or a favorite part of the concert, etc. VHS also just isn't as a good a format in general, and I can't see myself watching any video a few years from now. I'd like a DVD of this with scene selection -- that I would definitely buy. However, if you can't get a ahold of this via a friend or rental, it's definitely worth buying in case it never makes it to DVD.
