I thought the home show stream was pretty damn good!

Look, this is not what we would all prefer for our live fix, but I thought it hit the spot nevertheless.  You can tell that emotions were on the sleeve of the band members. The charitable goal of the show was very noble, and the money raised impressive.  The set list had some true curveballs, Let Me Sleep, Help Help, and I’ve Got a Feeling. I watched this and reacted with pumped fists, smiles, and tears. I love this band.

    The tip to Andy in the second song was well played.

    Was this the same show where they all had flying V’s during Alive? 
    If so... oh my... Crowd looked terrible. Looked bored... except for that one kid.

    Yup, and I agree. It was the one big downer of the experience. You would think that a Seattle crowd would be pumped up! Unfortunately the crowd was an overwhelming disappointment energy wise. The band brought it though. Streaming it made the show more powerful than being there, in a way.  At least from an outsiders point of view.

    Watched it with wife and son. Loved it. Was it perfect? No, but a killer show and happy to have my money directed to a great cause. This band is the best.

    I got to watch part of it so far.  I really liked it.  I'm biased though as I was at the show.   It's amazing luck to have a high quality proshot video come out of a show you attended :)

    There's a fair amount of complaining about this.  If you had technical difficulties and couldn't get it to work or couldn't get audio, obviously that's 100% legit and a huge downer.  But if this played fine for you and you seriously don't think it was worth your $10, I have a hard time understanding.  Like the OP said, it wasn't perfect, it's not EXACTLY what I would have done, but c'mon.  It was indeed, "pretty damn good."

    Really enjoyed the show! No problems using the Nugs app on apple TV. 
    Band seemed tight at times but found their groove... a few hiccups here and there.... Not sure if it was the mix but Ed sounded like he was trying to fill the whole stadium with his voice w/o a mic.... Seemed off at times and shoutey.

    Agreed....we knew the setlist going in and I can't see much to complain about related to sound or video

    Agreed! Especially me being a teacher, it is nice to hear.

    Also, just had a lot of fun watching them perform. A lot of smiles from the guys!

    I loved the recently aired home show. My wife and I had tickets for both nights but couldn’t attend due to a death in the family. I have watched the show 3 times so far...really hope they put both nights on DVD.
