On the DVD: The concert is accompanied by a video diary of the band on the road--with footage from their tour bus and backstage at the three gigs. Along with this is a wealth of special features including a great acoustic version of "More Than This" for the Jo Wiley show, which you can set up to be intercut with the concert footage or viewed as a separate film; a special playlist feature, which groups the tracks from the concerts in the order of the albums they come from to give you a chronological guide to Travis live and a full Travis discography. Recorded in Dolby 5.1 along with the option to view the concert from a total of four different angles. --Helen Marquis

In reference to their recorded output, this may be (partly at least) true. But when they take to the stage, Travis are a different ball game. Their songs (which is ALL they are about) take on a new dimension when they are being sung back to them by 10,000 Glaswegians.
In addition to this, Fran Healy's voice seems to exude a great deal more emotion in a live setting - perhaps they should take to recording on the road.
This gig, recorded at the Glasgow Green festival this summer, is a wonderful momento of the last 3 years of Travis-mania. The set mainly comprises songs from the two hugely successful albums "The Man Who" and this year's "The Invisible Band".
Despite the fact that the latter is yet to match the sales figures of its predecessor, the songs are certainly not weak - and given that "The Man Who" was still selling over a year after release, it may still meet expectations.
On the strength of the songs, it certainly should. "Flowers In The Window", "Side" and "Pipe Dreams" are probably the standouts on this DVD, whil the more introspective "Humpty Dumpty Love Song" is simply sublime.
This is not forgetting the singalong classics from yesteryear, which are all appear. "Why Does It Always Rain On Me", "Turn" and "Writing To Reach You" in particular are roared to Fran by the crowd.
The encore contains the only real disappointment of the show, Dougie's reading of "All The Young Dudes", but then things are brought to a suitable climax with "Happy", one of only two songs taken from the band's debut album "Good Feeling".
Apart from the gig, there are exerts of the band speaking, which serves to show that they are simply down-to-earth human beings, a rarity whose success you cannot grudge.
A MUST-have for any Travis fan, anyone else best steer clear!
