Review: The US/Canadian Version - This memo is right off the official Live 8 DVD website and explains what will be on the US/Canadian version. The memo refers to it as the Canadian DVD but Canada and US are both region 1 for DVD so it's the same DVD set. I hope this clears up any confusion. THE GREATEST SHOWS ON EARTH TO BE RELEASED ON DVD EMI Are Proud To Announce The DVD Release Of Live 8 On Tuesday, November 8, 2005 In Canada On November 8 the biggest live event DVD project of its kind will be released. The Live 8 DVD brings together performances from the amazing series of concerts which took place around the world on July 2, 2005. Live 8 One Day One Concert One World The 4-disc set contains three discs of live footage taken from the Live 8 shows staged in London and Philadelphia alongside key highlights from the seven other events staged across the world. Every artist who performed at Londons Hyde Park and Philadelphias Museum Of Art appear on the DVD, many of them with their full sets. It was 20 years ago today The Live 8 DVD opens with U2 and Paul McCartneys crowd-rousing rendition of Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band and also features Pink Floyds historical reunion, Robbie Williamss show-stopping performance and Madonnas breathtakingly energetic set. Younger artists such as Snow Patrol, The Killers and Joss Stone comfortably intertwine with rock n roll legends such as The Who and Sting. One-off duets come from Paul McCartney and George Michael, Stevie Wonder and Adam Levine (Maroon 5), Elton John and Pete Doherty and Coldplay and Richard Ashcroft. Disc 3 closes as the London concert closed on July 2 with the stars of Live 8 Hyde Park taking to the stage for the stunning Hey Jude finale. Philadelphia also hosted incredible performances from amazing superstars such as Destinys Child, Bon Jovi, Black Eyed Peas, Sarah McLachlan with Josh Groban and soul legend Stevie Wonder. Also threaded through the UK and US acts are performances from artists who appeared at the Live 8 concerts in the Toronto area, Rome, Paris, Berlin, Johannesburg and Moscow. Tracks from Green Day, Brian Wilson and Roxy Music in Berlin and Neil Young, Bryan Adams and Jet in Toronto are included along with the Pet Shop Boys in Moscow, Duran Duran in Rome, Vusi Mahlasela in Johannesburg and Placebo and Muse in Paris. Disc 4 features exclusive extras including a never-before-seen backstage documentary filmed at Hyde Park, Pink Floyds Live 8 reunion rehearsal, more acts from Live 8s global concerts including McFly and Bjork in Tokyo, films by The Who and Travis and a contribution from Ricky Gervais. The special features section will offer highlights from Edinburghs Final Push concert at Murrayfield on July 6 which will include performances from James Brown, Travis and The Proclaimers. Single disc sets for the Canadian, French, German and Italian Live 8 concerts have also been produced. These will focus further on each countrys concert and will be available globally. I hope this will be the biggest selling DVD of all time. It deserves to be. More importantly perhaps, it should be, for it will help us achieve our goal of changing the lives of the extreme poor for the better and making our generation the one that helped end the disgrace of poverty, says Live 8 organiser Sir Bob Geldof. Money raised from sales of the Live 8 DVD will go to the Band Aid Trust for the relief of hunger and poverty in Africa. Live 8 was held on 2 July 2005. Nine simultaneous, free concerts starring the cream of international rock and pop artists were staged in London, Paris, Toronto, Berlin, Rome, Tokyo, Moscow, Johannesburg and Philadelphia. The concerts acted as a starting point for The Long Walk To Justice in support of the Make Poverty History and Global Call To Action campaigns and was timed to focus attention on the critical decisions made by the G8 summit four days later. Youre such a lovely audience, wed like to take you home with us sang Bono. Now the million-strong live audience and 5 billion viewers around the world can take Live 8 home with them
Review: something here for everyone... - Let's face it. Nobody has the kind of acceptance of so many different styles or genres of music that they would sit and watch every song on every disc from this set. We all have our favorites, but this is where the DVD format has the advantage over older video cassette tapes. The ability to instantly access the things we like and to effortlessly skip the parts that offer nothing to us makes a diverse compilation like this work, and it could only work on DVD. Towards that end, this is a great set. The navigation is very intuitive. You can search by artist, click on that chosen singer or group and watch all of the performances from them. At less than 10 bucks per disc, even while skipping over the parts I don't wish to hear, this is a very good price. The quality of the audio and video is first class for this set. Unlike the 1985 concert where home video was still an infant technology, you can tell that this show was conceived from the beginning as something to be rendered as clear, bright and pristine in a package that really documents the day. The 5.1 sound is as good as any from my large collection of concert DVDs. The visual image is very sharp and contrasty, even on my old analog T.V. These discs lack for nothing as far as the technical rendering is concerned. Truth be told, I was planning on buying this DVD on the day of the concert just to have a video of that terrific Pink Floyd set, and yes, it sounds and looks better than I remember it from the actual live broadcast. I feel I got my money's worth from just that group (the performance and the behind the scenes rehearsal footage and interviews), and there is so much more to see and hear. I'm happy!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Concerts, Great Production, Fantastic Value
*by L***E on November 23, 2005*

As many were, I too was skeptical of how well this set would turn out and after just having finished watching all 10 hours I am pleasantly and enthusiastically astonished! I still can't believe what a wonderful job they did putting this concert together on DVD. The audio is great in 2.0 stereo and in 5.1 and DTS it will blow you away. Instead of having chapter listings they have each DVD's list of performers for easy searching for your favorite and start at the beginning of that act. But the chapters are setup so you can skip individual songs. The Video is 16:9 and excellent and many things were cleaned up from the original broadcast feeds. As for the performances, if you saw it on TV, you already know how good it was and if you didn't you will not be disappointed. I'm buying one for everyone on my holiday shopping list that I know will enjoy these concerts. As for my comment on the value of this set, where in this day and age can you get great entertainment for only three dollars an hour? Do yourself a favor and get this set and Enjoy!
