Shania Twain is a hit machine and all of her best showed up in Chicago. I really enjoy this DVD when I get home from work. Shania has a very high energy show, a rockin' band and great chemistry with her fans. I love her new songs like "She's Not Just a Pretty Face" and "I'm Gonna Getcha Good", but her old songs are performed with equal zest! Definitely a must have for the fan!


The terrific Up! Concert by Mike Haber.   October 9, 2005

Country Music Sensation Shania Twain returns to stage for her first concert performence over the last 3 years. This Concert was seen NBC back on August 19th, 2003. It was tapped on July 27th, 2003. She performs in the Windy City at Grant Park in front of 50,000 fans. It was an outdoor concert. She sang her new hits and classics. The songs she sang were from her albums Up, The Woman in me, and Come on over. This concert doesn't show the footage of Shania's visit to Chicago and not even when she went to Wrigley Field when she threw the opening pitch and went in the annoncers booth and led the crowd singing "Take me out the ballgame" and her visit to the Chicago branch kids Cafe. An after school feeding program that Shania supports. They show all the people who went on stage to meet her. Like the part when Shania asked three little girls to sing "I'm gonna gethcha good" and the request for this man to marry this woman she knew and danced on stage to "When you kiss me." She wore 3 outfits in the show and played the guitar during "No one needs to know" and You're still the one." She also featured a stringed orchestra as a very special guest during "Thank you Baby! (For making me someday come so soon.) Also the best part was Shania playing the drums during ("If Your'e Not in it for love) I'm otta here." This concert was part of her 3 pre-tour concerts. The other 2 were also outdoor concert. So lets "Rock this Country" and enjoy "SHANIA TWAIN UP! LIVE IN CHICAGO!"

I have been not been to any Shania concerts yet but the Chicago concert makes me wish I could have attended this one. Shania is SO full of energy, constantly moving, interacting with the crowd...it is fantastic to watch! And the audience! Wow are they hyper or what? Everyone on the dvd is extremely excited to see Shania's first concert in the US since 1999! The band is fabulous too! This concert just had so much energy and anyone that passes up this DVD doesn't know what they're missing! And yes, there are extra songs that Shania performed at Chicago that were not shown on the TV special 6 of them! So you're in for a real treat! I'm telling you, anyone would love this for a present and if there's no one to buy it for, then buy it for yourself because this is one awesome energy filled concert! Shania definitely rocks this country as will this dvd!

The thing I really liked was when Shania asked these 3 little girls to come out and sing the opening of I'm gonna Getcha Good. Those little girls sounded like little angels. Also I enjoyed the part when Shnia was shaking evreyones hand and one girl in the audience was singing part of "She's not just a pretty face" into the Microphone. That girl is so lucky.

The saddest thing is that they don't have the videos and Interviews of Shania's visit to Chicago when she was not onstage. When they shown this concert on NBC and CMT, the best part was Shania getting to play for the Chicago Cubs baseball team for a day and going into the announcer's booth being the guest conductor and leading the crowd in Take me out to the ballgame. I loved that part. That was acually the highlight of Shania's visit to Chicago. It's sad they don't have it on this DVD. Still enjoy the video!

This is by far my favorite presentation of Shania's incredible music--she's live, she's alive, and she keeps that audience of 50,000 people on their feet and loving her for over two hours.

I'm a recent fan of Shania's (must have been asleep) and have several of her CDs and DVDs. This is by far my favorite, because of the incredible connectedness between her and her audience, fueled by her complete command of her material, her near-unbelievable stage presence, and the obvious love that she and the audience keep blowing back and forth.

Her CDs are wonderful (especially The Best of Shania Twain) and the other videos I have are fine--her costumes are actually sexier on The Platinum Collection--but if I had to choose only one disk, this would be the winner.
