Disco de Foo Fighters: “Live at Wembley Stadium [DVD]”

For what it is, it's hard to complain. In terms of the setlist, you can never have too many songs of course, but off the top of my head there aren't too many glaring omissions for a two-hour set... the last single "Let It Die" perhaps, and some might prefer to see something from the band's first album. It would've been nice to see "Aurora," which was strangely absent from "Skin and Bones."

As with their other concert videos, "Everywhere But Home" and "Skin and Bones," there aren't any extras, and despite the double listing here, you only get video of the 18 songs in 2.0 or 5.1 (and no DTS). Oh, and like those other videos, Dave's penchant for F-bombs in between songs is also on display here.

The band is in tight, top form here (no bridge jams that drag on) and they look like they're having fun. Dave and Taylor in particular really seem to be in awe of the giant crowd that's gathered to see them. The renditions of the songs are about what you'd expect, although "My Hero" is done acoustic-style. Taylor stays at the drums for "Cold Day," but Dave takes over for "Rock and Roll" while Taylor sings. My only quibble is that "Everlong" is done with Dave solo at first, saving the main quartet for the very end. (Personally, I prefer the energy of the normal arrangement. With this one, it feels like once things get good, it's over.)

All in all, it's a great hard rock complement for the acoustic "Skin and Bones" DVD, and arguably more of a keeper than "Everywhere But Home." Yeah, it'd be good to at least see some behind-the-scenes stuff if anything, but if you can get it for a good price, it's nice to have some of their newer songs on DVD.

I've been a fan of the Foo Fighters since the beginning and I still find the first three albums to be the best. So when I saw a live performance of them from the legendary wembley stadium I knew it had to be great. Well while the performance was good I fell Dave is trying a little hard with his expansions in terms of the new sounds he's added. I myself prefer the songs without the addition of violin, pianos, and keyboards. However seeing the legendary Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones perform two of Led Zeppelins best songs with the Foo Fighters made up for this/ Overall a good concert, that for met at least falls just short of being great.

First of all, the video on this DVD is amazing, and produced to almost look like a movie. Top notch quality on that.

For the show, the energy in the band and the enormous croud never let down. Watching it gave me chills. Dave Grohl had some very funny moments talking inbetween songs (especially while introducing the band). The special appearance of Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones was just icing on the cake. Overall it was a very inspirational show, and shows that rock and roll is not dead!!!

This is a DVD you must get.

Certainly their greatest show! A must for all of you rock/grunge fans!.. You gotta own this! Do yourself a favor and buy this show! Also available in Blue-Ray...

Arrived on time. Have watched several times and have enjoyed it every time. Big Foo fan.

Sound and Picture are excellent.
