5 stars The live video "Get All You Deserve" comes as either a DVD, a Blu-Ray or a Limited Deluxe Edition, which includes both video formats as well as the entire two-hour concert in a slip-cased, hardback DVD-size book with 40 pages of tour pictures. Wilson believes that music is released in packages that look wonderful?things to grab and to hold, as much as to hear and see. Directed by Lasse Hoile?who has been with Wilson and Porcupine Tree since first teaming up for the cover of Porcupine Tree's In Absentia. The result is a live performance video that is casted differently than a traditional live concert where at the beginning of the film is like a horror movie. It's a good experience to see this video at the first time. Recorded at Teatro Metropólitanon in Mexico City, the band undertook the fifth of what would eventually be 26 concert dates. The film includes 16 tunes with new effort called "Luminol" that would be included in the next album of Wilson. Wilson toured with keyboardist Adam Holzman, guitarist Niko Tsonev, drummer Marco Minnemann, bassist Nick Beggs and Theo Travis, who played flute and sax.

The overall concert video is an exciting thing to enjoy as the sound quality as well as the picture are excellent even though the most part of the concert was performed in dark nuance. The important thing is the angles of shooting that are different with any typical concert. As far as musician's performance on stage, I love Nick Beggs stage act even though he is quite calm throughout the show. But his bass playing is really cool and one of the important factors looking at the band play the music of Wilson. The next one is the drummer Marco Minnemann who plays wonderful drumming and of course Theo Travis with his flute and sax work. Of course I like the rockin' style of Steven Wilson who plays his vocal line excellently plus the guitar he brings and some exploration sounds using keyboard. He moves quite dynamically around the stage. I am really happy that they perform Luminol which at that time was not released as studio track yet.

Overall, it's a highly recommended live performance studio that deserves full five stars rating. I really love this video. Keep on proggin' ?!!

Peace on earth and mercy mild - GW
