Bush: Live! (2012)

Bush: Live!I was curious about this bluray because the AXS (originally HDNet) broadcast was riddled with Gavin's pre-recorded vocal tracks (used as backing vocals for live performances) being mixed LOUDER than his actual live vocals. It sounded horrible, especially during the chorus'. The first song of the concert, "The Mirror of the Signs" has been omitted from this official bluray release, and if you watched the live broadcast, its easy to tell why -the performance was not very good (it was one of the first times they played it) and Gavin's live vocals were not on 'time' with the pre-recorded backing tracks.

When it comes to live rock bands, Im not into click tracks. Im not into pre-recorded vocals, Im not into sound effects -I want live and raw. Bush's Woodstock 1999 DVD is a better example of this.... BUT, I will say that for THIS release, it was remixed from the live broadcast and the backing vocals have been lowered to make it much more listenable. Visually, the concert is stunning. A+ video. Performance wise, its not Bush at their absolute best but its good to great at times. "Alien" was fantastic.

Plays is 3 USA bluray players I tried. 1 PS3 and 2 different Sony bluray standalones. No worries if you are in the USA purchasing this. Trust me!

BUSH always puts on the best shows, and this one doesn't disappoint.. Loved every second. dont worry about the dvd zones that may be listed, it plays just fin in a US blu ray player.
