I've seen Joe a couple times in the past. I was lucky enough to get to this show in Anaheim. The CD is excellent (although I do agree that with prior reviewers, that from a "song" perspective, they are a bit longer than necessary), but the DVD is better suited for the longer jams. The crowd was great that night, the Grove is a good venue to see shows and if you were lucky to be there (and be up front - smile!) what a treat to have the DVD and the CD as a post card! The more I listen/watch the more appreciation I have for the band. I love Stu Hamm, but LaRue really comes through in Joe's format/songs. Enjoy both the CD and the DVD - you won't regret it!
