*Squealx100* The new Take That Progress Live Tour is out on DVD on 21 November and we've had the pleasure of watching it. All (nearly) three hours of it. Yay! But don't worry, we're not just got to sit here and gloat at you, we're going to give you valuable information on what you can expect from it. You know... Just in case you're thinking twice about buying it.
First up, there are two jam-packed discs. Disc one is all about the live show - which we assume a few thousand of you must have seen. For those who haven't, trust us - it's pretty awesome. We were particularly impressed with the camera work, which basically shows off just how huge the crowd is at TT gigs AND gives us better access to Jason Orange's nipples, Howard Donald's crotch shots and a whole load of a smiley Mark Owen. Plus you get some amazing close ups of Gary Barlow's gorgeous facial stubble and Robbie Williams', frankly, crazy faces. Brilliant!
Of course we don't have to mention the amazing load of hits the boys perform, but we will - everything from Shine and Rule The World, Let Me Entertain You and Angels, Kidz and The Flood are covered before all five lads get together to serenade the audience with A Million Love Songs, Back For Good and... our highlight Pray! *does the dance*
After the live show fix, disc two softens the mood with a 30-minute Making Of documentary. There, you'll get to hear all about how Mark, Gary, Jason, Howard and Rob' put together this incredible show and watch them get pretty emotional about it all. In fact, Mark has a tear in his eye at one point! And for those worried that there won't be enough Jason and Howard, don't. There's plenty of good footage of the lush ones.
A happy Gazza B says at one point, "[All of us] feel totally secure, real strong. It felt good. I love being up there with everyone. I hope I never take this for granted." We're obvs taking that to mean Take That, the five-piece are here to stay.
So we've waffled on plenty and to conclude, this is one of the best live DVDs we've seen in a long time. Get it, love it, watch it (over and over, like us).
