The Complex Rock Tour Live is a live DVD by Blue Man Group in support of their album, The Complex with footage from their shows in Dallas, Texas. It features almost all of the songs from that album, one song ("Drumbone") from their older album, Audio, and a cover of The Who song "Baba O'Riley". The DVD also has three music videos on it: "Sing Along", "The Current", and "Exhibit 13". Side B of the album has three tracks from The Complex in 5.1 surround sound, "Above", "Your Attention", and "Sing Along".

In the song titles menu on the DVD, the name of the song on track 13 is spelled "Baba O'Reilly". Blue Man Group jokingly asserts that this alternate spelling is Pete Townshend's intended spelling, attributing the spelling "Baba O'Riley" to a clerical error on the part of the record company which created the artwork for the album Who's Next by The Who.[1]

Two songs that were part of the performance but omitted from the DVD are "Piano Smasher" and "White Rabbit". Also cut was a short cover of Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir" during the brief tributes section of the show.
