This concert should set the stage on how we rate other artis
I watched this concert on HBO all three times they aired it. It is truly amazing. Janet's performance was incredible. I'm a musician, band leader, writer, producer........etc. To say that I love all kinds of music would be a HUGE understatement. Every time I watch this concert, I'm blown away by how much energy Janet and her whole crew put into the show. All the singers, dancers, musicians, and the audience was so hyped! Plus, the fact that her band got to strut their stuff from time to time, made my day. I also run sound (PA) for bands so I know how incredibly hard it is to mix for a live event. I thought the mix could've been a little better. At times, you can barely understand Janet or her background singers. Some songs are a little clearer than others. However, I can't wait for this concert to come out on VHS, Laserdisc, or DVD. Being the music enthusiast I am, I'lll probably buy all three formats. The overall show was (is) really awesome. Everyone should own it.
