I have seen it. The name is aptly chosen. It's about the 10th Verbier Festival. I didn't think it had a lot of artistic value (LL is in it... ;D). It's mainly just a bunch of musicians having some fun. Don't expect anything too deep. It's one of those DVDs that one watches once and then probably never again. Rent it first if you can, don't buy it outright. That's my opinion.

Ditto ( except for the remark about LL - I think he's a hell of a pianist)...
But yes, definitely a rental job...
