Good DVD Concert?

I bought the U2 Live in Boston DVD awhile ago (when it first came out) and am impressed everytime I watch it.

Does anyone know of any similar DVD productions of single concerts (not compilations of many concerts or music videos) which are of such excellent quality? I bought the Yes: Symphonic Live concert DVD and was dissappointed in the lack of energy that I immediately put it on Ebay after I watched it. It makes me not even want to listen to my YES CD's.

I want something similar to the U2 DVD, high energy and emotion with excellent sound and video shots as well. Of course the music is important too! I like rock music (or otherwise upbeat stuff).

Thanks in advance.

Paul Van Dyk with title, Global (Bonus Dvd)

Included with the CD.

The track, Zurdo, from the movie of the same name, is an incredible 5.1. One of the very best recorded music DVD's I ever heard. Most of it is 5.1, the bonus tracks are Dolby digital. It really rocks! Very high fidelity.

It is interesting to note the CD and the included DVD are the same soundtrack, but mixed a little differently. You can compare your CD player with the DVD.

James has an excellent farewell concert DVD. Picture quality is ok , but the sound and songs are great. The only band I can compare them to is Coldplay, but more upbeat. Available as an import only, the Canadian version is Region One.

Neil Young's "Live Rust" was rcently released on DVD. That's a goodie. And I second the nomination of "The Last Waltz".
