Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Gareth Gates Live is a concert from his first ever tour, in which the Pop Idol runner-up sent thousands of screaming girls into a knicker-wetting frenzy with pyrotechnics, sparkling (and seemingly uncomfortably tight) Elvis costumes and even a spot of flying, albeit with the help of wires. The spiky-haired pop cutie runs through most famous hits, including "Anyone of Us" ("Stupid Mistake"), "Unchained Melody" and "What My Heart Wants to Say". It's a flashy, up-beat affair and Gareth breezes through his act like a seasoned professional, even bringing on Will Young for a couple of duets towards the end. If it all feels rather by-the-numbers, it's nevertheless sure to have Gareth's fans, old and young alike, tapping their feet and throwing their underwear at the TV screen for years to come.
On the DVD: Gareth Gates Live teases with a nicely presented menu screen which leads to some rather sparse extras, including multi-camera-angle scenes, a photo gallery and behind-the-scenes feature. The picture is sharp and the bright colours and occasional pyrotechnics are captured clearly. The 5.1 Dolby mix ensure a good, if not earth-shattering, audio experience, but then Gareth's music doesn't need really need anything more than a serviceable mix. --Jon Weir

The concert was fantastic, and this well produced video captures that magic. In fact, you can hear a lot better than at the concert because they've turned the volume down on the screamers.
The set is varied and energetic, with moments of calm where Gareth's singing is exceptionally moving. A must for all fans, and highly recommended to all interested parties who are 'just wondering' what he's like live.
I've watched it again and again, and look out for the behind the scenes footage at the end.
