Band Du Lac - One Night Only

Customer Reviews:

great show in a unique setting.......2006-06-13

If your looking for a DVD that really captures what playing in a band is all about then this is the one for you.

Universally good performances throughout from Brooker, Carrack, Clapton, Ringo, Roger Taylor etc with the added attraction of a surprisingly infectious little sets from Katie Melua and the Drifters.

A concert that annually takes place in leafy Surrey where most of the participants reside but it would grace any world stage..... pretty unique

A nice little film on the extras showing rehearsal footage and interesting interviews with band members.

Put it on.... turn it up in all its 5.1 glory and enjoy!!!

Great performances - disappointing atmosphere........2006-06-10

First off, let me say that this is an excellent Dvd capturing a good performance by the band so that those of us who can't get along to such rare get-togethers can enjoy too. At just over 2 hours in length, excellent sound and picture quality, bonus interviews - plus part of the cost goes to HASTE - it's great value for money. Good, but not standout, performances all round from the assembled band members and guests, but .... yep, there is something lacking. In a word - or two - it's just the total lack of any atmosphere; there's no spark, no real enthusiasm between the band members, and the crowd appear too concerned about people watching to really enjoy themselves.

For what it's worth I think a few good blues numbers included in the set would have spiced things up no end! Pity Buddy Guy wasn't on the guest-list....

But that's the only downside, so if you can ignore that aspect and just enjoy the musicianship then you'll be well pleased.

No Refuge - No Problem.......2004-01-09

Good quality DVD set, and probably my favourite of the three currently available. The material is more balanced and engaging than season 2, but doesn't quite recapture the ambiguity of season 1, this season is the one that feels most comfortable. Very solid work, nice special effects, but a bit light on the special features. I'd definitely recommend this.
