CommentsXp Best movie ever!

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

MisterWhiplash Pearl Jam have proved themselves to be one of the enduring rock and roll bands of the 90's- still together, still making moving, combustible music that finds that perfect edge of hard-rock while still appealing to a massive audience. For its own cult group, which is rather big in and of itself, a DVD like Touring Band 2000 is a given to buy and soak up multiple times, but for the casual PJ fan it's worthwhile also. Classics like 'Daughter', 'Better Man', 'Even Flow', and some of my other favorites like 'Animal' and 'Rocking in the Free World' are among the lot of over two dozen songs included. The added treat is that the songs are NOT inter-cut with interviews, like other music DVD documentaries, and that they are from various concerts giving the wide range of material. I even dug the grainy style of filming, which could get under my skin, but stays above the line of incompetent, amateur filming. The style matches the energy and attitude that pours out of PJ with every song. However, one should get the DVD for its added bonus: bonus music videos, including one in particular for a favorite off of Yield- 'Do the Evolution', one of their very best videos directed by Todd McFarlane. To have this on video somewhere is a big treat.

MovieGuruII This is a great DVD for Pearl Jam fans and any person that simply loves music. This DVD follows one of the greatest Rock 'n' Roll bands of the past 15 years as they rock the faces off concert goers during the Binaural Tour in the Summer & Fall of 2000.This DVD is visual proof that Pearl Jam is clearly one of the best live acts of all- time. Highlights from shows throughout the U.S. are shown, and Pearl Jam's raw energy and power, that attracts their fans to come to their shows again and again and again can be felt by anyone who watches this DVD. When I got this DVD, I was sooo psyched to see that a show I attended at Jones Beach in Long Island, NY was represented on the DVD. This is still one of my favorite Pearl Jam shows that I have attended to date. I was also doubly glad to see that one of my most memorable moments at Pearl Jam show wasrepresented too. This is when they sing Daughter with the "Its OK" tag (a song by Dead Moon). This is and such an unbelievable moment. You have to watchthis to be able to feel and understand what I mean. The features on this DVD are great too. For drummers that want to watch a real pro like Matt Cameron show you why he is one of the best, you need to watchthe "Matt Cam". The Oceans & Do the Evolution videos are also there for theviewers to enjoy. There are some audio settings as well. Dolby 5.1 surround is available on this DVD for those who have a home theater.This is a great collection of Pearl Jam footage from various shows throughout there 2000 US tour, it is surely not to be missed. It has some good features too.

pifas I'm speechless; what else can anyone say after watching over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over this DVD? Pearl Jam is one of the greatest events in music of all time. It's honesty is only surpassed by the godly songs they create, and Touring band 2000 it's a legacy of sheer spiritual sounds live; a frame for the deep communion this five musicians have with themselves and with their audience. It's a must have for any music lover. Period.

drdre1 Touring Band 2000 is a great showing of the band's incredible live performances of their grand catalog of songs spanning their 10 years as grungefathers. It clearly represents their superiority as one of the best live acts, especially on DVD where their music sounds even more outstanding. Added bonuses, like the Do the Evolution and the never before released Oceans music videos make it even more desirable to pick up. A must have for any serious PJ fan.
