**** Live In Phoenix (2008)

Multi-platinum group Fall Out Boy present their first ever LIVE concertDVD "**** Live in Phoenix". Taped last June at the Cricket Pavilion in Phoenix for the 2007 Honda Civic Tour, the DVD features over one hour of LIVE music from all three Fall Out Boy albums including the hits, "Saturday," "Sugar We're Going Down," "Dance, Dance," "This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race" and "Me & You." Also featured on the DVD are all eight Fall Out Boy music videos in chronological order, the making of "Me & You"- filmed in Uganda - and plenty of behind-the-scenes footage and out-takes from last summer's Honda Civic Tour.

A Great Live Show

Rock has meshed into so many sound alike bands over the years, but Fall Out Boy have remained true to their roots, giving fans a little extra with pyrotechnics at their shows for all their googles of girly fans. At a time now with more rap artists like 50 cent, Jay-Z and Lil Wayne dominating the music charts, shoving rock musicians out of the way, it's been harder for the full style rock bands to make it big. Fall Out Boy have been deemed one of the last alternative rock bands to succeed.

Their songs are sharp, witty, crafty and with pop anthems to the T. This Live DVD Proves it. Live In Phoenix is a heck of a show for any fan. It was filmed on the band's 2007 Phoenix, Arizona stop of the Honda Civic Tour. Fall Out Boy seems to still have the connections to fans that they had in the beginning and adding more. They will probably be around for a long time.

Best Ever

This was bought for my 15 year old daughter. It was received in a timely manner in great condition. My daughter thinks it is the greatest DVD ever!! May 20, 2008

Be Careful.

If you're an old-school kind of fan of FOB, then you might not like this DVD very much. There's too much of the element of really putting on a show in an egotistical way, especially on Pete's part. All the shots of the audience are of the airhead fans who only like FOB because "they're hot" and wear I <3 Pete across their tits.
Musically the performance is good. The theatrics however are not, they are too over the top and obviously planned to show off for the DVD in an egotistical way like I said. It's nice that the DVD includes music videos but it is not ALL of their videos, only videos from the last two albums (Cork Tree and Infinity on High) - none from the Take This To My Grave album. The behind the scenes stuff really really sucks though. Especially compared to their behind the scenes antics on their previous two DVDs, which were great.
I would highly recommend their previous two DVDs My Heart Will Always Be the B-Side to My Tongue and Clandestine Industries Presents: Release the Bats because I feel that those are more accurate and a much better representation of them. April 23, 2008
