Boingo's swan song
1 November 2001
Six years ago, Oingo Boingo breathed its last on a stage in Universal City, California, and here it is -- the only concert film the band ever made. And, as the only document of the Oingo Boingo live experience, it does nicely, even with the copious crowd shots and hyperkinetic editing style.

At times the set list puts the emphasis on the band's last studio album, but there are enough classics from their 17-year history to satisfy long-time fans. And the performances are spirited, with Danny and the band obviously enjoying themselves immensely.

The tape also features an abbreviated history of the band, backstage shenanigans, and two music videos from both ends of the band's existence. All in all, it's worth tracking down.
