Disco de Avril Lavigne: “Best Damn Tour [Clean]”

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.

Well this DVD is quite good, but there's couple dissappointments, I was at one of her concerts but she didn't sound like in this DVD, I mean this DVD has to many audio modifications, and I know it's live DVD, but it almost doesn't sound like live. At some places there's a little desynchronization.

Video is great, but audio not so much.

Ok, The Best Damn Tour was like the best damn tour she had so far, but this DVD is somewhat disappointing. Her voices are way too much produced and sounds really unnatural and different from her live performances. I know everybody does that when they release DVD but this one could've been much much better if they just kept her voice LIVE a little (like her first DVD). Some people may like it because it sounds almost perfect, but come on, what's the point of buying LIVE conert DVD? I don't think she sounded so terrible in the actual concert that they had to edit her voice for the entire concert.

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.

i went to this concert and wanted to see it again. so i had to get this. and im really happy i did!
