This show was great. It marks the return on Steve Stevens into the Billy Idol band. This dvd offers great insight into the birth of the songs written by Idol and Stevens. Plus, it's got two songs of Billy and Steve playing alone. want to see a great guitar player??? Check Stevens playing guitar in this video. You'd love it.
Great gig! The set list for this show caught me completely off guard. I was expecting a list compiled of Billy's greatest hits, you know, the radio friendly songs that anybody reading this review grew up on, but I was pleasantly surprised to hear some tracks from his earlier project, Generation X. Priceless!! Plus an incredible performance of Blue Highway to boot. Any Billy Idol fan will not disappointed with this DVD. The audio production is great. The performances were top notch. My only gripe is that the video is shot in 4x3. Not to worry, you won't even notice after a few tracks. Definitely worth a rental, if not a purchase.
Great setlist, excellent sound and good stories by Billy. if you play guitar, its a must watch. Stevens has one of the best right hands out there. amazing separation of simulataneous flatpicking and fingerpicking on White Wedding. good stuff!
