I bought the Blu-Ray version hoping for a great performance with excellent audio and video quality. What I got was a lackluster performance with poor audio and just average video. The KOL have great potential but the songs and musicianship need drastic improvement.

This was basically just Kings of Leon performing their show frontwards to backwards with nothing in between. I’ve been to two of their shows which were both great but this particular show wasn’t interesting, they just seemed to be going thru the motions. They are my favorite band so I had high hopes for this DVD but, alas, it was a waste of money. There weren’t any backstage interactions or any commentary from the band; just a straight-forward taped performance, so if you’ve seen them live there is no point to buy this.

Been a fan of The Kings of Leon for a few years… The they started getting big on the Radio… Haven’t had a chance to see them live – but you can’t ask for a better experience. Coupled with an HDTV, and 5.1(or higher) surround) its like being in front of them. The Track list is great, many of their greatest songs. The quality of the video is pretty good – its a little grainy, more so at some angles – I also have The Killers Live in London and its nearly crystal clear – I’m sure the difference comes from the location and their available lighting. Its not enough to dislike it though – it still gives you a closer look into the stage work of The Kings of Leon without getting smashed into the front guardrail floor level.
I gave my rating of 5 Stars because this live recording does give the viewer a great feel of a live performance, the sound is amazing, the video quality is pretty good, and the track list is full of great songs.

Just about as close as you can get to being at the concert. This is a simply done straight shot video of Kings of Leon performing in London; no silly embellishments, no strange camera movements, no fancy light show, and no stage theatrics, just Kings of Leon, plain and simple.
The style of this video is good and bad. The good, if you love Kings of Leon, you will be very well served. There’s just enough grittiness to the performance that it doesn’t sound exactly like the studio recordings, but it isn’t so far off that the music is unrecognizable. The set list is long. The fan is really well served. The bad, well there almost isn’t a reason to watch the video after about 20 minutes. Once I’d seen the classic skinny goofy guy surfing the audience, the girls on guys shoulders dancing in the air, and the close ups of those gorgeous Gibson guitars, then I’d seen enough.
As a concert video, if you love them straight and simple, you will love this DVD. If you are looking for a great video experience, look elsewhere. I would contend that this concert would make a much better live album. I can easily see converting the sound track to audio files and listening to this concert over and over, the performances are just that great.
For the music, this is an incredible album. From a video standpoint, it is a bit disappointing.
The DVD has no special features. There are chapter stops at each song, and a song menu to choose from. The video would be acceptable to all audiences, there is no nudity (well except for the skinny guy with his shirt off), not even a hint of sensuality, and I don’t seem to recall any strong language in any of their songs.
Buy it for the live album.
