Destination Everywhere - 1/2 hour making of documentary

Yes, the hits are all here, but Ronan Keating's Destination Wembley must also be one of the most crisply produced live concert releases ever. The staging is superb--a kind of cross between the deck of an aircraft carrier and a Swiss cheese, in which the members of his high-powered backing band nestle in individual circular pits--and the lighting and camerawork are of the highest order. Ronan himself is a consummate showman, even to the extent of flying out over the audience on wires, Peter Pan fashion, towards the end of the show--and no, he doesn't look silly either, unlike Garth Brooks, who did it with his hat on.

Ronan Keating is, of course, more your all-round entertainer than a singer, so much of his material isn't too demanding--he actually lets himself be upstaged by one of his own backing singers when they do a duet--but he shows willing by tackling some cover versions for the benefit of the mums and dads in the audience. One is Van Morrison's "Brown-Eyed Girl", an improbable nod to another of Ireland's musical exports; another is Elvis's "In the Ghetto". That's not why his ecstatic audience came, though. They want, and get, "Life is a Rollercoaster", "The Long Goodbye" and so on, all of which he delivers with knobs on (the flying-on-wires episode is one of the most restrained, really). Had there been a stretch of water between Ronan and his audience, he'd probably have walked. This is an essential purchase for fans.

Destination Wembley comes with Dolby 5.1 surround and is presented in 4:3 aspect. The disc has a good documentary about the work involved in touring Ronan's monster show, plus a photo gallery and Web link. However, the extras menu has a rather strange layout which only shows one item at a time, so be prepared to skip through several screens using your cursor keys to find all the options.

A live solo performance from Boyzone's wunderkind Ronan Keating, including the No.1 hit single 'If Tomorrow Never Comes'.
