Sting 3.0 Live (Interscope/A&M). Review by Michelle Wilson.

Double Date With Death are loud and Canadian, and they don’t care if you don’t understand their French howling. They have a double date to get to.

Brimming with compelling interviews, and bursting with action-packed concert performances, this newly-released DVD documentary provides music enthusiasts with a riveting, behind-the-scenes look at one of rock’s most influential festivals.
