Just picked this DVD up this morning. The downtown HMV here in Calgary only had one freakin' copy, and luckily I managed to grab it before anybody else. Not that I needed to rush down there or anything. I don't think anybody in this city even knows who this band is, which is fine by me. They're my little secret.
Anyways, it's a fantastic DVD and if you're into these guys I highly recommend picking it up. I've never had the privilege of seeing them live, so this is the next best thing. There's some cool backstage footage mixed in with the concert, which is great. At one point they show where Kurt Cobain scribbled his name on the wall of the dressing room, which is completely covered in graffiti from other bands who have played there. I seem to remember the Hip playing at the 40 Watt a couple times when they were touring the south. I wonder if their name is scrawled on the wall too?
