Alive in Athens – The DVD is a 2006 DVD release from Century Media featuring live footage of Iced Earth's 1999 concert at The Rodon in Athens, Greece.

Recording took place during two separate nights, January 23, and the 24th. Audio recordings of these concerts are also available on the live album of the same name.

Tracks

Note that song order is not identical to that featured on the album version. A few songs are also missing, including "Slave to the Dark", "A Question of Heaven", and "Iced Earth". "Colors" was played at this concert as well, but was not included on the CD or DVD due to a tracklisting mixup. It is however included on The Melancholy E.P. and the 2008 re-release of Alive in Athens.

Notes

This DVD was released by the bands, at the time, former label after Iced Earth was no longer with them. Here is part of a statement released by Jon Schaffer to Iced Earth fans:

...I want you all to be aware of what it is that they (Century Media) are releasing. This is a very low-budget, badly edited video of an amazing concert and an awesome period in the history of Iced Earth. They promised me that they are going to keep the price down and that they are not going to market it as something it's not. But I feel it's my responsibility to let you know the reality of the situation."

Iced Earth is back with Century Media
