I didn't know you picked up that live Dio disc, nice find!
I bought that one along with the new Airbourne and Megadeth at Best Buy in Rapid City on the way home.
I only have the debut, Mood Swings, Higher and Human Nature but have heard several others.
They are a great band and one of the top 20-30 bands of the MHR genre and I'm looking forward to seeing them at MRF3 in September.
I didn't watch the video but if it's the same as the one that came out last month then I wasn't impressed at all.
I guess it's okay musically and all but not what I want from Tracii Guns.....
I'm sure I'll buy this as I usually like anything with Kotzen involved but I agree with Captain Howdy that it's a horrible name and I've felt that way since their name was announced a few months back. From what I've read even Portnoy hates the name....
I do wonder what this might have sounded like if the project with Sykes would have happened but Kotzen is an amazing player and vocalist.

Winger has been fairly active for the last 5 years with two new albums and many shows even with Reb being in Whitesnake as Coverdale only likes to play about half the year. They have had 3 of the 4 original members for a while minus keyboardist Paul Taylor. It would be nice if he returned but I'm not sure with the heavier direction of the last two albums if they need him or not.
LOL at the "Chip" Winger comment above...
This CD is awesome. If u throw out the pointless intro every other song is a winner. "Dead Man Shoes" is the song I've been digging a lot on the last few spins.
It looks like Wildstreet is done. Erik (vocals) is recording some solo stuff. Ali and Joos are working on a new project together.. I believe it will be a bit heavier than Wildstreet.
I've heard 4 new songs that Wildstreet had written and planned to record prior to the split. I'm not sure those songs will every see the light of day now. It's ashame as I believe they were the best Wildstreet tunes yet. Maybe Eric will release them at some point.
That's to bad I loved their debut a bunch and dug the video they've had on youtube.
Did you get this one yet? How is the packaging? It is still listed for $9.99 so I may pull the trigger if it is packaged worth a damn.
Just got it and it's a digi pack with some photos inside the package and then a seperate booklet with lyrics and thank you's so it's a nice pacakging IMO.
Look forward to this, great show!
I know Bill Buchanan is dead but would be nice bring back Chloe, Kim, Chase and I can't remember if Tony Almeda lived or died.
