You could never get away from the fact that he was playing Fenway, in Boston, whoop dee doo. There are 28 other teams in MLB and according to the media, hollywood, television, music, everyone, all we ever hear about is Boston and New York. The rest of the country could care less about the Red Sox/Yankees. Personally I wish both teams would just fall to the bottom of the standings and we never have to hear about them again.

It was just disappointing to see Jimmy pandering to the already overhyped Red Sox. I would much rather see a DVD from a regular stop with an enormous lawn that looked more like a Parrothead party than a concert before a baseball game.
I will preface this by saying that I am Red Sox fan. The neat thing about this concert is that it was only the second concert ever to be played in Fenway. Maybe it is just that I grew up going to that park and seeing it in this DVD adds a ton of memories for me. Just my two cents.
I'm sure it is and it is probably a very special DVD for you. But I'm watching it and thinking, where are the shark hats, where are the parrotheads. It seemed like a large part of the crowd was there primarily because it was a concert in Fenway. Hell, they didn't even have a tailgate. I wanna see a Buffett DVD with half naked women, beer bongs, vibrator races, all that fun stuff.
Agreed, on all points.

Just cruising along and found this one. First off, NYCPort, who put "Remastering: Non existant." That is correct. Because it was not 'remastered', it was 'mastered'.

I've posted a few times that the Hawaii Tiki album is the best of the recent live albums and I think even my 2nd or 3rd overall favourite live album. The Fenway double LP is good, a lot of energy, very up, LTC songs to boot, the band is obviously pumped and so is JB. The DVD is good too - not long enough but s***, the point is obvious - everyone there had a blast.

I think that's what the point of releasing the record/video was right? That all involved had a blast. Sure seems like it. And it WAS history. Dude, get over the fact that the rest of the country only hears about the Red Sox/Yankees. Get yer team to win and see what happens (good luck). You go to New England and see how it is. JB playing Fenway was HUGE. It was and shall remain a historic show, if not overall, at least for JB and those fans (I'm sure there were very few) and parrotheads that attended.

Ha ha ha ha ha....only a "true fan" would not complain. I love it when people post and say 'true fan'. It's so....silly and obnoxious. I'm just a fan, not a 'true fan' nor a parrot head. Or beak head or whatever that was.
