Heart: Alive in Seattle (2003)
The Wilson sisters (1980s glam rockers with such hits as "Alone" and "These Dreams") make a triumphant return to their hometown of Seattle. The city, oddly enough, spawned the grunge movement in the early '90s and killed off many of the '80s metal bands. A career-spanning selection of material in this concert includes early classics such as "Barracuda" and "Crazy on You," alongside more recent material.

To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
I remember going to see a Heart Concert at Memorial Stadium in Seattle just after the release of their debut album. I walked out of Memorial Stadium about 5 minutes after they started playing. Why? THEIR STAGE PRESENTS! Ann Wilson had terrible Stage Presents ( In My Openion ). So much that I couldn't stand to hear any more of their concert. I stopped listening to Heart after the song "Straight On" ( around 1979 ) was introduced. After that, their lyrics sounded like they should be in Romance Novels... I pity the male musicians who were a part of Heart over the years. They obviously had no say in production or music, they just gutted it out and picked up their paychecks. Hey, its a living and a way to pay the bills, right??
Performing in their hometown of Seattle at the very end of their so-called "Summer of Love" tour in 2002, Ann and Nancy Wilson were obviously in a good mood, and this excellent concert disc captures them at the top of their rocking form. I've been seeing these gals in concert since 1977 (just saw 'em here in NYC a few years ago), and they have always delivered the goods in a live setting. This particular show not only features lots of old favorites, but also several new cuts that have not seen the light of day on a studio album yet (including the recent "Jupiter's Daughter"), and also some fine covers. The girls do a particularly fine version of Zep's "Battle of Evermore" and "Black Dog," and look very beautiful, both of them, throughout. The Seattle crowd was obviously loving the return of their hometown favorites; what a show they were treated to that night! For all fans of Ann and Nancy, this DVD is a godsend that they will want to blast over and over.
