 Good Concert, But Needs More Content August 23, 2008
crouteru (UK)
I very much enjoyed watching this DVD of Darren Hayes' Time Machine Tour. He is a great live performer, and like his most recent album (This Delicate Thing We've Made), the concert has a theatrical theme to it. I would say it's the best concert he's done since Savage Garden's Superstars And Cannonballs concert (also available on DVD). My only problem is the lack of any extras at all. I know that documentary footage exists on the internet, which could have been included, not to mention the videos for the 3 singles released. I also don't see why the next upcoming project, This Delicate Film We've Made, couldn't have been packaged with this aswell. It would have made the set more worthwhile.
 Solid entertainment for all age-groups August 15, 2008
Lyn (Melbourne Australia)
Everything other positive reviewers have said I totally support. This is such a great concert. It is sustained entertainment right through and covers many musical moods and styles. It stands well as theatre too. The backing band even seem to be really into it and enyoying it. Darren is a mature performer and songwriter who gives a very generous performance that doesn't wane. There is some really intersting music and great beat. I didnt know many of the songs before I watched and immediately was into them. I just want to add that I've been into rock type music since the 60s which puts me outside many of the age-groups that may usually look at him. So I want to add that my generation would get a lot out of this too if anyone is looking for something new. Unlike the negative review I saw on the DVD - to my taste it was well shot and interesting.
 Disappointing August 6, 2008

Whilst I can appreciate that this show was probably very good live, in my opinion it doesn't make for a good dvd at all. The set is boring and dark throughout, most of the songs are dull and uninteresting. The audience were very quiet and didn't appear to be enjoying the show very much. The whole thing is a far cry from Darrens Savage Garden days. I found this dvd to be very disappointing.
Simply brilliant July 26, 2008
Lisa (UK)
I've had somewhat of a musical journey with Darren Hayes. Since I first heard Savage Garden's pop-sounding "I Want You" on a late night chat show back in 1997, I've been hooked on basically everything they, and later he, have produced.
I was fortunate enough to see the Time Machine Tour last year at the Royal Albert Hall. It seems after some trial and error, Darren is finally doing what he does best - creating and performing brilliant, meaningful music in a slightly flamboyant way that only he could.
Brilliant show and a great DVD.
A great reminder of seeing the concert live. July 25, 2008

A biased review as I am a great fan of Darren Hayes. I saw this show at the Albert Hall and was keen to get a copy of the DVD. Disappointed that he didn't film the London concerts.
Nevertheless, a good DVD, the filming and editing does justice to the set. It is great to be able to see the 'bird' in closer detail.
A must for any fan.
