It was better than being at the concert

+++++
Reviewer: John from Kingston
Date: 14/04/2008
This is the best concert film I\'ve ever seen. There are cameras to record every riff, wink, shake, puff and nudge. Never can a performance have been so minutely observed. The interaction of Keef Richards and Ronnie Wood was a delight to behold. Individually they say they are lousy but together they are supreme. The distinctive Stones sound reverberates and evolves. These guys are not resting on their standard classics - they are still pushing at the limits of sound. They are not too proud to guest invite musicians to give a new edge to their creativity. Jagger still reigns supreme. The strutting is more pronounced that ever. Woodstock, Cream Farewell - they were great as capturing music history. This ranks alongside - the Greatest Rock and Roll band in the World.

Fantastic

It was absolutely fabulous Mick Jagger was simply awesome hope I have the same energy and excitement at his age.
Well worth the visit - spell binding from the minute you took you seat they have certainly in my eyes got better and better with age they can certainly give the younger groups a serious run for their money.
Well worth seeing would very very strongly recommend it to all ages.

OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE

Martin Scorsese "Shine A Light" was outstanding. Mick Jagger doing what he does best entertaining the crowd with his singing and energetic dancing. Keith Richards also contributed some excellent songs too (you got the silver & connection). Special guest Buddy Guy was awesome. The song Champagne & Reefer was absolutely brilliant. Plus the track Far Away Eyes came across really well. Everything from the way it was filmed to the lighting and sound was brilliant. All in all an excellent evening and a definate must see film.
