## Description

RIDE, RISE, ROAR is a concert film featuring David Byrne that blends riveting onstage performances with intimate details of the creative collaborations that make the music and performance happen. Shot with multiple cameras over several concerts during the 08/09 tour, the film blends the energy and charisma of classic Talking Heads with the heartfelt pathos of David Byrne and Brian Enos most recent collaboration. Between the songs, the film achieves an unprecedented intimacy with David Byrne and the band, documenting behind-the-scenes auditions, rehearsals, and interviews with key players while revealing the creative process that led to the show's unique fusion of pop music and modern dance. RIDE, RISE, ROAR celebrates Byrnes extensive career as a musician and testifies to the creativity that keeps him going today.

Review: At times, even better than Stop Making Sense - During the tour which is the subject of this documentary (and for those who have complained, it -is- a documentary, not a concert film), Jon Pareles, chief music critic for The New York Times, wrote a review after having seen the Radio City Music Hall show. In it, Pareles commented that he thought the dancers in the show were a distraction. David Byrne, for his part, wrote a scathing rebuttal in his blog, in which he said, among other things, "I guess 30 years from now (Pareles)'ll figure out what this show was about." In Ride, Rise Roar, Byrne says that when he came up with the idea to use dancers as part of the show, he wasn't sure how the audience would react, but he was looking forward to finding out. Having seen three of the tour's shows at the time, I didn't fully get what the dancers were about, but thought the shows were great. As you watch RRR, Byrne, the choreographers, the dancers, and the musicians all take turns explaining how the show was conceptually put together song by song. By the end you do get a much better sense of "what this show was about". This is a great documentary. The concert footage is at times more effective than Stop Making Sense, and the picture and sound quality are nothing short of unbelievable. Sit back, crank the volume up on your surround sound system, and let the creative force that is David Byrne launch a full on assault on your senses.
Review: Great Music, Performance, & Insights into the creative process - Outstanding film. Byrne is terrific and the performances were captivating. The unique blend of music and modern dance made for an audiovisual feast. Concert footage brought you into the performance in ways not possible if attended live. As much as I enjoyed the performances, my favorite parts were the insights into the creative process and glimpses into the performers' off-stage personalities. If you like concert films, you will love Ride, Rise, Roar!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great innovative music and dancing - annoying intervals
*by B***K on February 7, 2012*

The music of David Byrne is funky, innovative, rhythmic and engaging. He approaches his music as an art form and therefore keen to explore innovative and expressive dance routines to complement the music. The choreography is fascinating how the two lady choreographers melded the dance in with the music. Even the backup singers were drawn in although not comfortable at times. The program is mixed with interviews and insights as to how the production was all pulled together. This information is interesting but I would have preferred it to have been separated as bonus material and not interspersed between each song. Also, if you removed the interviews the program is only a tad over 1 hour in length which makes the production quite short. Nevertheless it was still worth buying the blu-ray.
