A DVD version of 'PopMart Live From Mexico City' is released today.

First reviews here

Billed as a 'sci-fi disco supermarket', the PopMart Tour opened in its 'spiritual home', Las Vegas, on 25th April 1997. 'PopMart Live from Mexico City' was filmed at the Foro Sol Autodromo in Mexico City in December that year and directed by David Mallet. Shot on analogue video - and originally released on video in 1998 - for its DVD debut it has been transferred to a digital format with re-graded pictures, remastered audio and mixed in 5.1 Surround Sound.

The DVD comes in a Standard 1-disc format, featuring the concert, and a Special Limited Edition 2-disc format, the 2nd bonus disc containing unreleased live audio and video material, including documentaries, a PopMart tour visuals montage, and DVD-ROM extras.
