Tour Generación RBD en Vivo

To commemorate their first-ever live tour, RBD released a CD/DVD, Tour Generación RBD en Vivo. The featured performance includes all the key songs from Rebelde, the group's debut album: "Rebelde," "Otro Día Que Va," "Enséñame," "Un Poco de Tu Amor," "Sólo Quédate en Silencio." Plus, there's a cumbia version of "Rebelde" that closes the show and a video, "Sólo Quédate en Silencio." All of this adds up to everything a fan could want from a CD/DVD like this. As for the performance itself, it's well choreographed but not especially well sung. The boys in particular sing poorly. But the girls do a good job, especially on the ballad "Sálvame." It helps that the crowd sings along on many of the songs, especially the hits. This frenzied crowd response is mixed loudly, to the point where it sometimes overwhelms RBD's singing, not necessarily for the worse. In any event, fans aren't going to quibble about the singing. Much like the screaming concert-goers heard on Tour Generación RBD en Vivo, they'll likely find plenty to enjoy here. ~ Jason Birchmeier
