Since I'm just a moderate fan of the Chicks, I only rented this, and their previous PBS concert ("An Evening With..."), to see them sing "Goodbye Earl" and "Wide Open Spaces". These were the only two songs I knew by name, before I watched the Dvd's.

I started watching the first one, "An Evening With..." (it's in full-screen, with some widescreen shots mixed in), but found it a bit too slow, so I switched to the "Top of the World Tour Live" (which is in widescreen). I was a little confused at first, because I wasn't sure if Natalie's clothing kept changing, or if I was just imagining it? Or maybe, they were just quickly cutting to the other blonde Chick? Anyway, I jumped forward to chapter 4, and when Natalie said, "Well, hello Houston...Cleveland...Boston, etc., I realized what they were doing. Why they didn't start off with chapter 4, first, is beyond me, but I then went back and watched the entire concert! Without the shots of the different clothing and hairstyles, I would have skipped many of the songs.

Yes, some of the edits were too quick, but the quick edits were much less frequent, when the slower, softer songs were sung. I also wish they would have had fewer shots of Natalie wearing black, or sporting her crazy Mohawk hairstyle. To counter this, I just briefly looked elsewhere (on the screen), and waited till the next edit came.

I then watched "An Evening With...", and enjoyed Natalie's humor and sweetness. In addition, I enjoyed seven of the songs, and no longer found it too slow. I liked both concerts equally, but for different reasons.

"Top of the World Tour Live", had more style and flash; while "An Evening With...", had much more charm and humor.

I guess it's true what they say..."The Chicks Rule!"
