The music by Chris Collingwood (Lead Vocals, Guitar), Adam Schlesinger (Bass, Vocals), Jody Porter (Guitar, Vocals) and Brian Young (Drums, Percussion) isn't mind-blowing, isn't complex - it's just simple power pop.

The DVD unapologetically grants rabid fans insight into the on-stage set. That's it. Period. No outtakes, no videos, no drunken bus tours with the groupies and hangers-on. Just the windy city and a bunch of breezy, easy songs. Too bad, I kinda like the shadow side portrayal of rock stars on rock DVD's.

The DVD footage was taken from a concert in Chicago and includes the infectious track, "Stacy's Mom". You know the one, the video starred Rachael Hunter as every teenaged boys' M.I.L.F. dream. In addition, poppy FoW standards, "Sink to the Bottom" and "Radiation Vibe" get the crowd singing along in a cheerful manner. There is a reason why the case claims FoW to be the "Champions of Power Pop"; they embrace who and what They are without trying to make amends or please the critics. How refreshing.

The widescreen format and 5.1 Surround Sound makes watching this DVD enjoyable. You don't get bored, the DVD is fairly short by the epic four hour standard. It's like watching a string of videos with the same backdrop for about an hour.
