What is it?

To me it's gotta be Stop Making Sense. Start to end fantastic funky, rocking music. Woodstock is close behind - the 40th anniversary DVD release was great. Other favorites are Baby Snakes, Cunning Stunts by Metallica and The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert.

Well, Baby Snakes I've definitely watched the most. It's actually kind of sick how many times I've seen it since it first came out on vhs back in the '80's. The Song Remains the Same got quite a few viewings back in the day as well as The Wall (even though that's not really a concert film).

I like how there are many more concerts available nowadays and the production quality is much better on the newer ones.

Just saw a Ted Nugent concert on DVD that blew me away.

You are one lucky bastard! Wish i was 30 years older....

Purchased from Ticketron or whatever it was called on day of sale for 7 or 8.50, I think. NO corruption back then. At least not for Palladium shows.

When I was a kid, I saw "The Nightmare", which was a TV special. It wasn't a concert film, but it was a big part of making me an Alice Cooper fan. When I ordered the "Welcome To My Nightmare" DVD, I was disappointed, not because it was bad, just not what I was expecting. I finally did get my hands on a VHS of "The Nightmare"......
