Hey all!
Just over 2 weeks ago, I bought the Peppers' DVD titled "Off the Map" and I fell in love with it!
I have no CDs to my name for the Peppers' music but jaysus, the DVD was a perfect intro to the band's music imho! Though I have seen Peppers live as support to U2 at Slane last year in which they were simply fantastic that day but I didnt know the words of some songs until I saw the DVD.
The DVD contains concert footage recorded in Boston (I wonder which venue?) which lasted for 70 mins and contains the new and old songs. Special features includes pre-show backstage footage, interview footage, extra footage of 5 live songs.
Anyway, my highlights includes the amazing starter of seeing the Peppers huddling together before they go on stage to the loud cheers of the audience and start with Around The World! Brilliant! Also I love Californication, Scar Tissue, Under the Bridge and the last song, Me and My Friends (I loved the joke during that song! Im not giving anything away but you will have to see it for yourself!). Overall, the concert is pretty amazing to watch! It also became clear on DVD that the guys are truly amazing with their energy on stage with their jumping, bending backwards and dancing like maniacs!
I love the extra live footage especially the huge, epic song "Search and Destroy". I dont think I have heard anything like it. IMO, this is what did for the Peppers as what Bullet the Blue Sky did for U2.
Anyway I would highly recommend you to buy "Off the Map" and be prepared to be blown away!
