I was never one to buy the DVDs, and I've owned IT since it came out, but now I feel like just collecting them all. I snatched up Clifford Ball online today to start. Was curious on the .net community's preferences on the whole lot, ranking them. Scales & comments welcome. Go! Thanks!!

I have them all and it IT and Clifford Ball are probably the best content wise but I find myself rewatching Bittersweet Motel over and over again. Just love every single bit about that movie. But if you're going for a concert DVD you don't currently have I'd say try the Vegas show. Great setlist

I really love the Walnut Creek from 1998, a lot of energy from the band feeding off the crowd and the storm.
Live in Utica and Alpine 2010 were letdowns for me.

I say buy Clifford Ball if you buy only one, even though it is pricey. Bittersweet is probably my 2nd favorite, then Brooklyn, Walnut Creek and IT. I have Coral but I don't remember that one! ;-D

I too love bittersweet motel the most, but in terms of the best filmed DVD, I love Brooklyn. Whoever directed that is the man, plus it has some ballin Highlights in Moma> Free, Suzy, and Curtain With.

I went from having a bunch to only one somehow which I'm kinda bummed about, I use to have Brooklyn Coral Sky, Walnut Creek, Alpine, and Utica. Down to only Utica. I think I'm gonna repurchase a bunch of them though. I LOVE Utica though, so freakin sick. That Melt Sandwich is top notch 3.0 stuff.

I only settled for one used, and I think it was vegas for like $4. Utica was the most at like $17.

Brooklyn is my favorite, both in terms of the music and the way it was filmed.

UPDATE
Just waiting on Star Lake. Should I bother with Alpine?
Score: 0
Alpine is one of the weakest IMO. Not sure why out of all the summer '10 shows that was the one that got chosen. Video quality I think its one of the best but as for the show its kinda meh for me. Just watched the Star Lake DVD last night and while it was kinda lame that the quality wasn't high-def, its probably one of the best shows currently available on DVD.
Score: 0
Watching Star Lake right now. Video quality sucks! Kind of disappointed. However, the bonus disc totally makes up for the poor quality of the video!
Score: 0
Live in Vegas 2000 is by far the one I've watched the most. I hv all of them....really enjoy walnut creek. The mike's grooves from both shows are just over the top good. Mikes song from Vegas is some of fishmans best work...and Trey is right in it too. That show is Otto Von Bismarck underrated. As far as video quality, if its not blu ray, all I'm looking for is multiple cameras and a director that doesn't forget the crowd.
Score: 0
I think the video quality of the Starlake 98 DVD is pretty darn good, considering the source (VHS).

Waiting on my star lake to come in because I did the pre order so late. But I own Clifford and it, cliff obviously trumps it

Anyone in Canada (more specifically Toronto) know where I can buy the Clifford Ball DVD in stores other than HMV? I've looked everywhere, and $140 with tax, which is how much HMV is selling it for, seems waaay overpriced compared to prices i've seen online. Worst case i'll just order it online, but i'd much rather just pick it up from a store.

i got the gf to get me star lake for chirstmas but she pre ordered tooo late after the countless times i bothered her about not missing the bonus cd.. whatever hope to find online somehwere soon
