Summary: SIMPLY PUT, THIS SHOW *IS* ROCK 'N ROLL
Comment: I wasn't even a huge Foo Fighters fan before I bought this blu-ray disc - I was partially getting it for the Jimmy Page/John Paul Jones experience. Well that all changed in a matter of two seamless hours of spine tingling Rock 'N Roll! Folks, this is one of the best shows you'll *EVER* see.
After watching the disc for about the 10th time I'd have to say Dave's ferocity, accompanied by the insane jam session and drum solo during "Stacked Actors", makes this one of the best performances I've seen on video in the past 20 years. By the time Page and Jones come out it's like icing on top of icing on the cake - no wonder Dave breaks down like a little girl for a second. And when Dave switches with Taylor to pound on the pig skins for "Rock 'N Roll" and you see the look in his eyes, I do believe he's actually dead and in heaven. As for Taylor Hawkins nailing Robert Plant's vox (less the impossible highs)... WOW, who knew? I didn't. These guys are AMAZING. And to see every detail of them, their instruments, the crowd, and Wembley Stadium in fine detail is simply breathtaking.
The *only* flaw in the entire TWO HOUR performance (and I wasn't even going to mention this but I must because it's actually kinda funny) is Dave has no clue what half the lyrics are to Zep's "Ramble On". They should have titled the song "Mumble On" for the disc - it's all good though, the triangle solo makes up for it :)
As for anyone who complains about extras missing from the disc, all I have to say to that is, "86,000 FANS plus JOHN PAUL JONES and JIMMY PAGE for TWO ZEPPELIN SONGS" (THERE'S YOUR EXTRAS)!
SIMPLY PUT, THIS SHOW *IS* ROCK 'N ROLL

Summary: Great Band / Great Show
Comment: I saw the Foo Fighters this year at the Hard Rock in Las Vegas. We were in the very front and the show was amazing. I bought the DVD hoping it would be half as good as going to the show. The songs played for the most part are the same as the concert I saw. The footage is amazing and the sound is fantastic. Watching the DVD is almost as good as seeing the band live, in one aspectic it is better as no one is spilling beer on you in the comfort of your own home.
Get this DVD you will not be disappointed.

Summary: One of the Best Rock Shows!
Comment: The show perfectly shot, i got chills every time they opened a new song. The finale is perfect. One downside is that there is a couple songs they don't have on the DVD, But they played at the show. One of them is, But Honestly (Arguably one of the best on the new cd) That aside, i don't have a better Music Blu Ray in my collection. The gripping point is the bands overwhelming look on their face when they look into the crowd. At a couple points, Dave actually cries. It's amazing. If you ever get the chance, see these guys live. Do it, I saw them Live @ Red Rocks (Front Row Center). Best night of my life. Buy this, Amazon has it cheaper here than anyone else. Easy decision. :)

Summary: Unreal!
Comment: I dare any Foo Fighter's fan to watch this concert video without getting a major case of goose bumps! If you've ever had the distinct pleasure of seeing Dave Grohl and company perform live, you will cherish every moment of this show. Wembley is a very grand, and fitting venue for one of the greatest live rock bands out there today. And after an hour and a half of non-stop, blood-pumping live jam, they bring out Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones for the encore...are you kidding me??! Gotta go...I'm still watching!

Import only Blu-Ray Region All pressing. Foo Fighters have now immortalized for posterity their biggest ever headline stand with this 18-song DVD documenting their two sold out Wembley Stadium shows. The Wembley concerts, which took place Friday and Saturday June 6 and 7 of 2008, sold out within 24 hours, making them the biggest headline performances of the band's illustrious career--as well as the biggest Rock shows staged at the new Wembley to date. Live At Wembley Stadium is a career-spanning live opus, drawing on all six of Foo Fighters' studio albums, featuring classics "Times Like These," "Everlong," "Monkey Wrench," "All My Life" and "Learn To Fly" as well as new live staples including "Long Road To Ruin." The DVD also includes night two's historic encore, for which Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin joined Grohl and Hawkins for renditions of "Rock and Roll" (with Hawkins on vocals and Grohl on drums) and "Ramble On" (with Grohl on vocals and Hawkins on drums). It concludes with a triumphant and highly emotional "Best Of You" with a closing chorus of 85,000 fans leaving Grohl visibly moved. Columbia.
