Reception

Antimusic gave the DVD 5 out of 5 stars, stating "the combination of excellent musicianship, mesmerizing rock 'n' roll stage presence and superior film work make this show practically jump right into your lap".[5] In a negative review, This Is Not A Scene stated "Guns N' Roses were once dubbed ‘the most dangerous band in the world’; change the word ‘dangerous’ for ‘hilarious’ or ’embarrassing’ and that pretty much sums up what they represent on this package. A total train wreck."[6] Metal.de's Alex Klug gave the release 7 out of 10.[7]
