The Snakes & Arrows Live DVD is available today and will be released tomorrow (Nov 25/08 ) in Canada. It was filmed with 21 High Definition cameras in 16x9 widescreen format, over two nights in October 2007 at the Netherlands' Ahoy Rotterdam arena during the renowned rock trio's lengthy world tour. Additional SD footage was filmed in Atlanta this past July. The five month trek supporting Rush's critically acclaimed 2007 studio release, Snakes & Arrows, which includes the Grammy® Award-nominated track, “Malignant Narcissism,” topped Pollstar's Top 100 2007 Tours list at #12.
While previous DVD releases showcase different sides of the band, this 3-disc set, also available as a Blu-Ray Disc, offers fans a rare and close up look at the prodigious musicianship for which the band is renown.
