Background

edit

Three Days Grace was on the third leg of their tour with Breaking Benjamin when they were set to record their performance at The Palace of Auburn Hills in Michigan.[2] Guitarist Barry Stock told Billboard that their film crew would come out on the road in March to record the band's performance. "We record our show every night onto ProTools, so they'll come out and film this and I’m pretty sure we're gonna put together a DVD with that stuff."[2]

The 79-minute recording was directed by Michael Drumm.[3] The DVD was filmed at The Palace of Auburn Hills and captures the band's live performance and the enthusiasm of the sold-out crowd. The DVD also contains exclusive behind-the-scenes footage that allows fans the opportunity to get up-close and personal with the band.[1]

Live at the Palace 2008 was released exclusively in Best Buy on August 19, 2008. The DVD was screened in select theatres on August 26.[1] It was later released to Blu-ray on December 2.[4]
