My Comments:

Believe it or not, Russell Crowe has been making music longer than he has been making movies. This video is a nice little showcase of his talents in that area(and those of his now former band, 30 Odd Foot Of Grunts), though the film is a little lacking in the performance department. Too much of it is spent on the documentary aspect of it (a sad thing indeed, as the put on a hell of a show, which I was lucky enough to experience at the Fillmore a few years back). Still, there are some nice little gems here, like the music videos for songs like "The Photograph Kills," a song which can't be found on any other currently available release.

Oh, a note about the content: The DVD case states that this film is not rated, but IMDb.com lists it as Rated R for obscene language.
