Negative Positive
Title: Dissapointing display of marketing prowess
Review: After the long anticipation of its release, myself and the five people I went to the festival with, all agree that 270 Miles From Graceland is a misrepresentation of the spirit and energy of the festival. Everyone I know what was there feels that the performances on the DVD do not convey the upbeat groove that dominated the performances at the festival. They also failed to represent the ammount of collaboration and experimentation between the acts and artists in attendance. It seems that the main purpose of the DVD is to target people who were interested, but did not attend, and give them a popish, hollywood style 2 hour commercial about why they should buy tickets next year. I would rather watch any of the 6 hours of video that I shot there while I was wasted out of my mind.
Is the review positive or negative?
