Looks like The Police reunion tour finally made it to DVD. It's a Best Buy exclusive, 2 CDs and 2 DVDs for $20. I love these guys but missed the tour (too expensive for me). Have any of you seen this DVD? Comments?

I hope it doesn't suck because I will be getting it regardless :D
I, too, was unwilling to pay the prices to see them on tour. 20 bucks is a no-brainer though!

I saw them at Fenway Park in Boston - probably the best show I've seen in terms of energy and crowd vibe. Those guys still kill better than most regardless of age and genre - thanks for the DVD tip, that will be a must buy for me : )

I watched a couple of songs while in Best Buy the other day, in one of their home theater demo setups. Pretty smokin, especially in high-def-surround!

Based on the 2 shows I saw (1 near the start, 1 the end-of- tour at MSG), I'd be more than surprised if it sucked.

It was the best concert I can remember.
There are a few that I can't so it is tough to compare:drink

I saw them this past August in Pittsburgh...amazingly tight, filled with energy and some cool new arrangements and jazz inspired jams...and Sting's voice was still powerful. I have the DVD set, but I have to wait for Christmas...it's a gift to my 9 year old son who is a huge Police fan like his dad !!!

I bought it but haven't had the chace to watch/listen yet. Couldn't pass it up for $20.

Give us a review if you have the time!
I have their other videos (The Police Around The World, Synchronicity Concert, Outlandos to Synchronicities, Everyone Stares) and they never disappoint; I think I'll pick it up this weekend.

I saw'em in KC in May. Only waited 25 years! It really was a great show, and I WILL put that on my wishlist. Now if I can just see Steely Dan live I will be set.

I've now watched it and it's great. The song arrangements are great and Stings voice is really strong. Andy Summers has a vey unique approach to soloing which is refreshing to see. Bottom line is they still have it. The DVD/CD is worth more than $20.
