This is a very interesting take on the concert DVD as you would expect from a band of the caliber of the Pixies.

It shows the band reforming in 2004 after a 12 year absence and and fraught interpersonal relationships. From the first reunion to the rehearsals, the effect on a middle aged band, their relationships with friends, family and fans and what it all really means after the initial event.

The DVD has got some good extras; Deleted scenes, a commentary from directors Steven Cantor and Matthew Galkin with editor Trevor Ristow and 16-page booklet with directors' notes and an essay by Ben Sisario.
