The show was taped from the lower ranks off Adam's side , the camera located in some distance to the stage (almost back of the arena). The camera is shaky, especially during the close ups (which suffer of course from the great distance camera - stage). The colours and the shapes are crisp and defined when the taper does not shake too heavily. The taper provides a lot of shots where he zooms out and you can see the stage in its full monstrosity. Also, he uses the LED-monitors above the PA-stacks more frequently as source for close-ups than he actually zooms in. During the totals a spotlight tower obstructs the view to the stage a little bit but apart from some clapping hands here and there and a head in the lower corner , the view is clear. Quite frequently, though, the taper loses his focus and the camera tapes some LED-squares of the big screen.

There are some cuts, e.g. the Elevation intro starts and after a few seconds the recording jumps right into the last chorus of the song, killing most of the song.

The DVD is not properly authored, with track divisions in the middle of the songs.

The audio is good but suffers from the massive echo in the arena.
