Movie Reviews of Dar Williams: Live at Bearsville Theater
Movie Review: Better Than What I Expected
Summary: 4 Stars
I must admit that I expected a low quality production(I've seen it from too many dvd concerts I guess, some look like a home video) but I'm happy to say that I was pleased with this purchase. If you like the setlist, I don't see why you wouldn't like the dvd.
Quality - the video and sound quality are decent, there are no super-annoying shakey camera moves, and the lighting is good. I don't own a widescreen tv, so I don't know if they stretch the image. They could have used a couple more camera angles, but again, it's still better than what I expected.
The first few songs are Dar solo, but the band does eventually come out, starting with "As Cool As I Am". I happen to prefer Dar with the band (their sound doesn't overpower hers) but that's just a matter of musical preference.
It's just a nice, typical Dar Williams concert, folks: pleasant and simple. I haven't gone to too many shows, but I think it does capture the essence of what her shows are like. If that was her goal with this dvd, then mission accomplished. (Yes, it does include her characteristic in-between song banter, which I happen to enjoy!)
I don't know if people were expecting something super flashy - she doesn't SEEM to be the sequin type - but this is a good, solid addition to any fan's collection.
