Drive-By Truckers: The Dirty South - Live at the 40-Watt Trailers

Now for the first time, the Drive-By Truckers release a live DVD. It captures the first two shows that kicked off The Dirty South tour, live from the 40 Watt in Athens, Georgia. The band's live shows have become legendary both for their length and power. The DVD includes many songs from The Dirty South album, as well as favorites from all of DBT's other records. It also includes backstage footage and interviews with the band. This DVD is a must have for all DBT fans. "Like our records, this is an artifact from a moment in time. This DVD represents where the Drive-By Truckers were, in every sense of the word, on August 27th and 28th of 2004. We're somewhere else now. Come to see us. Hell will once again be raised."

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

This was one awesome event that I wished I could've been there to see in person. The Drive-By Truckers sold out the 40 Watts for a two night special event/party to celebrate their upcoming CD, The Dirty South. Filled with some of the hottest tracks from the album, as well as a few old favorites, this DVD is a must have for any southern rock fan.Along with the aforementioned live performances, there are brief behind-the-scenes interviews with the members of the band that tell the story of how they came to be. Also interesting to note is their choice of music to listen to while traveling from one show to the next (Jay Z, Outkast, etc.). An awesome insight to my favorite band.Some have complained that the recording is too dark, and it is in some parts, but that's part of the performance. It's a concert! The lighting changes with the song, or the excitement of the crowd. It's as much of a part of the show as the performance itself. Personally, I enjoyed the heck out of this DVD, and it gets constant replay.For other Truckers music, I found that the soundtrack to the Billy Bob Thornton starring CHRYSTAL is filled with classic DBT.
