Probably won't stay up too long!

 I only really went for VH. The only time I got to see them, unfortunately. The criticism of "too many solos, not enough songs" is valid. I remember coming away a little disappointed.  AC/DC seemed to be going through the motions somewhat too. Great day out though!

This is an interesting perspective,. Taken from the stage, you get to see Diamond Dave's moves close-up. I remember his raps very clearly. This includes the walk-on and some after- show footage featuring Neil Schon and 'The Ox' backstage with EVH

Difficult to judge the whole gig on that choppy footage, but they appear to come firing out of the blocks for a few songs and visibly tire as they go on.  And how many stage invaders!!??

Btw, our old TNMS friend Summerland (Giles), appears very briefly a couple of times, at around 24 and 38 minutes, waving a couple of small flags. :)
