The comprehensive menu system means that it takes a good few minutes to figure out how to look at all the extras and not just the ones on the initial menu. However, once this minor problem has been conquered, it is plain sailing.

To look at the extra features on the DVD actually takes longer than viewing the gig, but provides the same amount of enjoyment. The interview with McCartney is especially enjoyable, as Jools Holland asks him about the songs in the show. One slight annoyance is the director's odd decision to black out different corners of the shot. If you can get past this, the you will find the interview engaging.

The remainder of the extras are interesting enough with short pieces on each band member and a list of all the big names who have played at the Club. However, the music videos dominate, and let's face it, there is only so much of Sir Paul dancing like a dad that a person can take.
