Product Description
Studio: Uni Dist Corp (music) Release Date: 09/19/2006

Amazon.com
Zoo TV represents U2 at their most ambitious. The multimedia event combines two stages with live music, pre-recorded tracks, and 36 screens flashing an array of words and images. (Video artists include Kevin Godley, Anton Corbijn, and Brian Eno.) The theatricality extends to the quartet themselves, since Bono, as "The Fly," enters the scene in black patent leather--shades of '68 Elvis--while Adam Clayton sports a platinum mohawk. In order to recreate the experience for the home viewer, slogans are superimposed over footage from this 1993 engagement, e.g. "question everything," "this is not a rehearsal," etc. As Bono quips, "The latest and greatest in software, hardware, and menswear--we've got it all here." With so much going on, the most dynamic material tends to work best, like "The Real Thing," "Bullet the Blue Sky," and "Mysterious Ways," complete with belly dancer (in keeping with the song's Moroccan-set video). The foursome also tackles a few covers, like Elvis Presley's "Can't Help Falling in Love" and Lou Reed's "Satellite of Love." Towards the end of the latter, Reed appears via video monitor to sing along. Arguably, the whole Mister MacPhisto thing--Bono as satanic lounge lizard---doesn't quite work, but U2 deserves props for taking chances when most bands in their position would be resting on their laurels. With the accent on material from Achtung Baby and Zooropa,Zoo TV: Live From Sydney first appeared on VHS in 1994 and garnered a Grammy Award for Best Long Form Music Video. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Real U2 fans you've got to get this, it's on sale and you've got to have this in your collection, period. I've put this off for a few years, glad I got it now on sale. Plus you can rip the audio off it with DVD audio extractor program.

Thought this would be good. Just boring. Just listen to their CD's it's better.

Find a hobby like bird watching or go build a house for Habitat for Humanity instead of laying around your mothers basements watching U2 videos.

A much better concert DVD is Celtic Woman. They are cute!

Any U2 fan who loves to see this band in action will really like this DVD in your collection if you don't have it yet. I have some DVD's from this band and this one is a must have. Place your order right away, you won't regret. I have played it several times since I bought it and I just can't stop. The picture is very clear and the sound setting is fantastic. Enjoy it.
