After several years of being casually on and off, New Jersey rockers Bon Jovi came together for the 2000 Crush Tour. Filmed live on this tour, THE CRUSH TOUR video features a...
more...raucous, energetic performance of several of the band's greatest hits, plus a couple that lead singer Jon Bon Jovi released during a successful solo career. Songs performed include the rock ballad "Wanted Dead or Alive," "Bad Medicine," "Born To Be My Baby," and a very special ballad version of the hit that propelled them into fame, "Runaway."

Bon Jovi have been among the elite touring acts of the world for more than twenty years, and to see them live is one of the top concert experiences in music. So it is with great anticipation that any fan waits for Bon Jovi concert releases.
Filmed on August 30th 2000 during Bon Jovis hugely successful comeback in support of their first album for five years, the Crush tour DVD sees them wow 55,000 people in the Letzigrund stadium in Zurich, Switzerland.
Bon Jovi know what the fans want as they serve up an almost perfect mix of massive hits, back catalogue classics, and representation of the then new album, Crush. Tick off Livin' on a Prayer, Bad Medicine, Bed of Roses and other hits they are all there and sit comfortably with newer tracks such as Its my Life and One Wild Night etc. And it is a generous helping as well as they rattle through twenty tracks with efficiency which shows them for the old pros they are.
If you are a long time fan this will not be the best you have ever seen Bon Jovi perform (Newcomers should be suitably impressed) There is a certain spark that is not quite there like in other shows, although this may be down to the fact the crowd are largely uninspiring; it is a fine performance but lacks the magic Bon Jovi concerts are famed for. It is worth saying it rains through the whole show which maybe dampened the spirit.

The DVD as a package on the other hand is very good. This was an early DVD release and there is a decent bonus features, including very good music videos for it's my Life, and Say it isn't So. There is also a 30 minute backstage and interview documentary which is insightful and interesting. To round off the extras is a now out dated discography with track listings.
As already stated this was released early in the life of the DVD, but that said the picture quality is outstanding with a real crispness and clarity.
All in all this is a very good DVD package and should be more than enough for anyone with even the slightest interest in Bon Jovi.
