Porcupine Tree- Anesthetize, dvd, 2010
Audio: excellent
Video: picture quality is very good, the editing can trigger an epileptic seizure or make you dizzy. The majority of the cutting clips are less than 1 second, I did see one 2 and a 3 second clip. Iron Maiden-Rock in Rio was the same, unwatchable, IMO.
Performance: excellent
Genre: progressive rock

Most of my favorites have already been mentioned, including

Eagles Farewell I
Peter Gabriel Secret World
Talking Heads Stop Making Sense
Chris Botti in Boston
David Gilmour Remember that Night
Roger Waters The Wall (Berlin & The Tour)

But I enjoy a bunch of others, such as

Dire Straits Alchemy Live (Blu ray, 2 channel audio track)
Heart Alive in Seattle (Blu, 2 channel)
Peter Gabriel New Blood (Blu, 2 channel), Back to Front, and Live in Athens 1987
Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds Live at Radio City (Blu ray)
Joe Bonamassa - An Acoustic Evening at the Vienna Opera House

Just got David Gilmour Live at Pompei - haven't seen all of it, but loved what I've seen so far.

I have a bunch. They (Concerts) are just about the only physical media videos I buy anymore.
