Description: If you enjoyed all the toe-tapping excitement of Michael Flatley's amazing shows Lord of the Dance and Feet of Flames, you'll have to own Michael Flatley Gold, a thrilling program featuring all of Michael's greatest hits and two sneak previews of exclusive performances, plus an intimate interview with Michael Flatley. 130 minutes.
Amazon.com: For those who can't get enough of Michael Flatley's flaming feet, Michael Flatley: Gold may be the hottest ticket in town. It chronologically intersperses interviews with Flatley with scenes of his greatest hits, including Riverdance, Lord of the Dance, and other special performances. It's still a little awe-inspiring that Flatley was able to help turn the humble Irish peasant step dance into a spectacle evoking Elvis, arena rock, George M. Cohan, WWF Smackdown, and Siegfried, if not Roy--but the man's fans can't be denied. Those who like their moves with a little less flash will appreciate the earlier scenes, including a 1987 performance at the Kennedy Center; Flatley's passionate if preening reunion with the Chieftains in 1998 is also a thrill. --Anne Hurley

I love Feet of Flames and LOTD and Riverdance. But I didn't like FOF budapest. I saw very little dancing and mostly butt shaking. I would just stick with the others.
Rating: - Michael Flatley Gold
This DVD is worth the price, if only to see the Budapest version of Feet of Flames. If you saw Feet of Flames Victory Tour, you will enjoy the Budapest section. The included comments by Michael are great too. ... Read More
