I bought the DVD today and loved it! I'm glad Jimmy finally came out with one. I just wish there was more parking lot footage like CILCIA. I found myself in the crowd at Cincy which was great! Does anyone else get distracted from them mixing the same song from different shows? Jimmy's got one shirt on one second, and the next its completely different!

I thought the different shows footage was cool.

It's a pretty awesome DVD...I'm glad Jimmy finally got one out there...unfortunately it's way too short...I hope we don't have to wait too long for something full-length....
The best thing about the DVD is being able to see the band up close...I've spent way too many years now sitting on the lawn...I'm also thrilled that I can pause the DVD and zoom in on NADIRAH - I sure love her

...
Thanks Jimmy....you know your fans are absolutely crazy about you...this satisfies our craving for about 24 minutes....but we expect more soon....

I feel like I got my moneys worth since it was only $7.99 but in all honesty I wouldn't pay a penny more for this. Overall it's a good DVD but there is nothing remotley speacial about it. I love DVD's (especially music ones) because they take you places and show you things you normally wouldn't see. I didn't see any of that on this DVD. Cheeseburger and Fins in concert... in my opinion this is tiresome material. I wanted to see more of the clips from St Barts, more parking lot footage, more back stage material more of those special benefit shows that not all of us get to see, more interviews with Jimmy and the band. I have to beleive that Jimmy and his crew have hours upon hours of this kind of material. There was just nothing I could really sink my teeth into on this DVD. For those you havn't purchased it yet, I say go out and buy it for it's price, just don't expect too much more. I would really hate to think Jimmy rushed this project so that he could have something on the shelfs before Christmas

Sorry for the rant so early.
The best

I just picked up the new DVD and I am extremely happy with it. The quality is excellent, choice of songs, footage, etc. I only wish it was longer !!! I like the fact they seemlessly edited different concert footage into one song. Very well done. I am sure I am not alone in wishing Jimmy would produce a concert video. Something of this quality would be a must for every parrothead. Also, I noticed the Mini Matinee #1 on the cover, so I hope he plans on more volumes as time goes on. Good job Jimmy, gives us more !!!!!!!

Amazon shipped my copy yesterday. Super Saver shipping is great since it's free but it takes forever.
Anyway, it's great to read your different views on it. Maybe they'll come out with a DVD with nothing but tailgating footage.
Question: do you have to be specifically using a DVD player drive on your computer to check out that stuff or can it be any CD-ROM drive, too?

I think it is great and I look forward to more. I liked seeing the footage of Jimmy's old bar in St. Barths. I always wondered what it was like.
I found my DVD at WalMart for $5.98. I'm hate WalMart but I was pleasantly surprised to find the DVD displayed on End Caps in our small town. I usually have to go to the Twin Cities to find any good Buffett material.
