"This is a great DVD. I've always been a fan of Sammy's, so I'm probably biased to some degree, but this DVD delivers. The concert is great. The sound on this DVD is truly amazing. Sammy covers all the bases of his career, from his early solo outings, to his tenure with Van Halen, to his current rejuvinated solo adventures. Obviously when a man has such a big body of work, there will always be songs that you wished he would have played, but if he played every song I wanted to hear, it would have to be a five disc collection. Sammy's concert are always a big party and this is no exception. You can't help but get wrapped up in the experience when you're watching it. The second disc is an interview with Sammy and is pretty interesting as well. He speaks about his career with an honesty that is rare in entertainment these days. Overall, this is a great DVD, well worth the price of admission and will not disappoint."

The Wabos get better and Hagar still has it.

"In spite of his declining record sales, Sammy Hagar keeps being Sammy Hagar and his fans are so grateful!Sammy writes classic rock'n roll songs and does it his own style; always has. His contributions to Montrose and Van Halen have left their mark in rock'n roll history, and his solo career tried to get off the ground somewhere in between. Not ready to hang up his gloves yet, the self proclaimed Red Rocker has embraced yet another chapter in his career and formed the diverse Waborita band. I was skeptical, but these guys are very good! This DVD provides an entire concert, rightfully focusing on Sammy's best solo work, with 3 Van Halen covers "top of the world", "finish what you started" and "why can't this be love" performed almost flawlessly by the band, and a Montrose era song "Rock Candy" is also included.Sammy seems to be having a blast on stage, I don't care for all the new material, but many of them "Let Sally Drive", "Deeper Kind of Love", etc.. Are as good as anything he's ever written. The concert DVD alone is worth the price, including doubly digital 5.1 and dts 5.1 sound! But you also get a 2nd DVD which features a 1-hour interview with Sammy."

The red rocker is still the man!!

"Anybody that is a Sammy Hargar fan should buy this DVD. It is one of his best performances ever. I think you should turn off your phone, dim you lights and CRANK up the sound, just sit back and enjoy. If you dont have a good stereo-thats your loss. Sammy Rocks the house down!. OK now lets get technical about it, go in and change you sound settings, if you have 5.1 use it, if not change to 2.1 they both will still blow your ears off. Picture quality is great its a DVD what did you expect. Lets not forget about the bonus disk, the interview with Sammy was a very candid conversation. I really liked the part when he told it like it is about Eddie & Dave being [jerks]. ... Bottom line is: buy this and you wont be disapointed."
