Review of "The Crush Tour" Video
I was not at the concert. I own "The Crush Tour" video, and I would like to comment on that. That is, in case anybody reading this who did not see the concert is interested in buying it. First of all, the following are the chapters of the DVD. The videotape version has some tracks cut out.
1. Intro/2. Livin on a Prayer/3.You Give Love a Bad Name/4.Captain Crash and the Bueaty Queen from Mars/5.Say It Isn't So/6. One Wild Night/7. Born to be My Baby/8. It's My Life/9. Bed of Roses/10. Two Story Town/11. Just Older/12. Runaway/13. Lay Your Hands on Me/14. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead/15. Bad Medicine/16. Wanted Dead or Alive/17. I'll Be There for You/18. Next 100 Years/19. Someday I'll Be Saturday Night/20. Keep the Faith/21. Credits (Background Music: Thank You for Loving Me)
Additional Material: 30 minute backstage program/Photo gallery/Discography featuring album packshots and track listings/It's My Life video/Say It Isn't So Video
This is a really good video, especially for those of us who were not at any of the concerts. This video really gives the idea of what it is like. As in the "Live From London" video, the band played Livin on a Prayer right into You Give Love a Bad Name. Also, if you notice many lines going up and down on the screen, and you've read other reviews, you will know that it was raining at that concert. But without knowing that it was raining, it looks like something might be wrong with you video. Also, there is a slow and melodious version of Runaway. There is a pretty good fireworks at the end of the show, but there are no fireworks at all during the concert. That was a bit disappoointing. The backstage program is interesting if you want to learn more about what is behind making these concerts and making the albums.
If you are interested in the band's other live concert video "Live from London" check for a review in that section.
