Screen: 4:3 PAL
Sound: Dolby Digital 5.1 and 2.0 Stereo

Running time:
Disc 1 - Appr. 130 minutes
Disc 2 - Appr. 180 minutes

The first DVD is a complete live show from Zecke, Bochum recorded on January 25, 2004 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Rage. Highlights include: "Straight To Hell", "Back In Time", "Black In Mind", "Don't Fear The Winter" and "Higher Than The Sky" - a total of 24 songs plus a drum-solo and a guitar-solo, not so sure why they both play "Unity" and feel the need for a guitar-solo. This live-recording is also available on a 2-CD set, which also include "Enough Is Enough"

The second DVD is a 3 hours look behind the scenes, all the videos ever made, studio impressions, 4 live songs (including "Battlefield recorded back in 1987!) and the whole Rage history - a cool insight in the Rage camp. Some the video's are actually quite funny to watch (not sure it's intentionally though!) and the live songs are OK as well.

This is a ultimate experience for Rage fans and I think it's a great way to celebrate 20 years of Rage. I think this is a good DVD, which include everything you could wish for as a Rage fan.
