PMC stereo and Dolby Digital 5.1 surround audio tracks are provided and they both offer a clear and powerful live mix. Joe s guitar is appropriately cranked in both tracks, and really envelopes you in the superb surround sound mix.

The bass sounds deep and penetrating, and every nuance of the drum kit stood out marvelously. The widescreen video presentation was filmed in Hi-Def and looked nearly flawless. I was almost scared away from buying this DVD after reading several scathing reviews about the camera direction being excessively frantic and not focusing on Joe enough.

This is a big pet peeve of mine as well, but I am here to tell you that these reports are way overblown. Yes, the camera angle changes come a little too fast, which is all too typical of most recent concert videos, but this director generally did a decent job of capturing Satriani s best moments, and provided an overall good presentation of the show. Sometimes I wonder if any of these directors are even concert fans themselves, considering how pathetically some of their footage is filmed The Bonus Material is quite extensive and is highlighted by the 45-minute documentary Flying In A Blue Dream: Joe Satriani India Tour, which, as the title indicates, provides a fascinating look behind the scenes of Joe s 2005 tour of India, where Lord Satch is apparently worshipped almost as much as Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva themselves.

Also included are 2006 Tour Podcasts #1 - #4, a European tour slide show, band rehearsals for the world tour, the Super Colossal video, and lots more behind the scenes footage. Although there was a lot of repetition between this set list and Satriani s previous DVD - every single non- song performed on this video was already featured on the Live in San Francisco DVD - this video is still definitely worth checking out just to hear the nine new songs performed live. Throw in Joe s updated takes on some of his classic songs, and the plethora of great bonus material, and you ve got yourself one magnificent DVD package.
