Avril Lavigne: The Best Damn Tour - Live In Toronto
R**Z
Damn Amazing!
From the start to end, this live DVD is just amazing! It brought back the good memories of seeing her as a VIP in Houston. (I know this was taken live in Toronto, though.)Her performances are just like I remembered them being. The break dance had a different song though. It was Linkin Park when I saw her. It might have changed every show though, I'm not too sure. I loved when she played drums on Runaway! (Even though she cut the song short!) Her video for Bad Reputation (Originally by Joan Jett) was pretty cool.The only thing I have to complain about it is the sound quality. It sounds a bit too perfect. Don't get me wrong, she did sound VERY good live, but some of the sound in this DVD seems to be studio recorded. If you notice in a few songs, including Complicated, her mouth is moving and the song is not matched up right. I don't know what happened there...Overall, this DVD is worth every penny! Go buy it [:[...]

Don't be fooled by the youthful punk-pop vibe, she's a legit artist
I'm surely not within the typical demographic of an Avril Lavigne fan: male, about half a century old, professional in a technical field, hobbyist guitarist, and I like a wide range of music, though I gravitate most towards jazz-rock fusion. But I admit it, I enjoyed this DVD! Avril is an excellent singer with a crystal clear voice, and her songs are generally pretty good too (my favorite is 'Losing Grip'). No, she's no deity like Joni Mitchell, but she's still a legit artist and deservedly successful. So there you go - even if you don't think you're an Avril Lavigne fan, give this DVD a try and you might discover that you become a fan.

The latest Live DVD
It is just a DVD of Avril's latest live in Toronto.I personally wanted them to add something more, like the scenes at the backstage. But it was great to see her live even though it was on DVD.If you were a fan of her, you'd enjoy this product.

Avril is the Best Damn Girl ever on Tour !
Ive been an Avril fan for 13 years now and I'm 23. She has brought me up in the music scene back in 2002. Ive never seen her do the best damn tour show in Toronto. But Ive seen them elsewhere. Just in clips, but I finally wanted to buy the DVD officially. That was one of my favorite albums along with let go. But all of them are great. but I'm excited she did a dvd for this and my world. I never opened the package because i'm leaving it as a collectable. I met Avril back in 2014, and I wanted her to sign it and id open it, but until next time I'll have her sign it.Blessed to have a great era to remember and keep.

Completely overdubbed: Not LIVE at all! The Best Damn Re-recorder Tour!
I was looking forward to seeing this DVD but was disappointed right from the start. The audio is completely overdubbed, which means that after the recording of the show they went and re-recorded almost all of Avril's vocals, and some of the guitars too. You're not really hearing the live recording of the show; you're hearing a studio recording made after the show. This means that the producers or label were very unhappy with the quality of the actual live recording and re-did it to make it as perfect as possible. There's nothing new about overdubbing a live performance, in fact it's quite common, but it's usually done to get rid of blatant mistakes. In this case it's been used to mask the entire actual performance. It was hard to find an example, with the exception of some of the dialog between songs, where the actual vocals were being used. How bad could her performance have been? When we buy a live DVD or CD, we don't expect perfection. We expect a few bumps along the way. What we lose in imperfection, we make up for in the drama, spontaneity, passion, and reality of a real person performing live, and singing live. The idea that Avril had to go back into a studio and sync re-recorded voacals to what appears to be EVERY song in the concert is appalling and a slap in the face to her fans. Is The Best Damn Tour (Live In Toronto) really the best that Avril has to offer her fans?In some places the new audio has overdubbed parts of the song where the backing vocals from the other members of her band have been removed and were never put back in. You have people singing on stage with nothing coming out of their mouths. It's pathetic. If you just want to look at Avril (she does look great) and don't really care what you hear, then you might like this. But I say forget it. Maybe her next concert CD or DVD will really be live and not a fake, which is what this is. Avril, you should be ashamed of yourself for releasing this as it is. You should show a little more respect for your fans.

Avril Lavigne: The Best Damn Tour (Live In Toronto) (2008)
This is an AWESOME DVD , Music sounds real good, clear sound. Turn on your surround sounds speakers, play the dvd in a blueray player and you feel like you are really there at Avrils concert. As Avril says, "if you dont like me for who I am, then you dont like me for who I am, and all your going to get, is who I am".
F**N
Enjoyed it but....
This was a great concert & the video is fun. So many great songs...However the sound quality is terrible. You can barely hear her over the music.My daughter loves it though and she plays it over & over!I'd recommend this only to a real fan who can see past the flaws & enjoy the show.

So talented, so original.
For fans who cannot attend a live show, this is real good, and for fans who love her records, her songs, her band, this is great because you just want to see and know more. She generates excitement without the cheap sexual gesturing that some of the other female singers in her age range perform on stage.
F**U
Very good show!
I always loved that artist and I was not disappointed

Un concert excellent
Franchement je n'avais pas vue un aussi bon concert depuis Britney à Las Vegas. Qualité DVD son stéréo génial je regarderais avec mon casque 5.1 en 5.1 ce soir. Mais en tout cas aucun décalage audio/image comme certains le disent. à 7€ c'est donné.

Avril Lavigne - The Best Damn Tour [DVD] [2008]Would recomend this, absolutely! I got it for my 6yr old girl hoping that she would like it and now it's rarely out of the dvd player, it's full of well organised dance routines and catchy songs you could sing along to as well, for two hours peace and quiet it's well worth the money that i paid, and to cap it off delivery was realy quick too and any questions that i had were answered without delay. amazon.co.uk and that seller will be seeing me again, definately. Thanks guy's!
