The Los Angeles Times reviewed the reunion tour at the Anaheim House of Blues on April 12, the night before the recorded performances in Los Angeles. The Times stated that it was a sold-out show that mixed old and new material and noted the "Bowie-esque magnetism" of front man Richard Butler.[5]

The CD was released in November 2001 by Sony Records. It contains the studio recording "Alive (For Once In My Lifetime)".[6] The DVD was released on November 19, 2001 and included songs not present on the CD.[3]
