I Definitly AGREE with Mike about the Behind the scene clips, but they are very short.The concert footage, though, DOE'S NOTHING BUT ROCK !!!! George & the Destroyers at there best!! The video and sound are superb

Something is missing from this DVD, George Thorogood's fanatastic guitar tone. I can see some modern Mesa amps onstage, that I think he's plugged into. Not sure but I'm guessing he is using different amps from the old days, becuase it's just not there. The other guy playing lead sounds good, but Goeorge's tone isn't right. I can't really blame George (he may be half deaf, for all I know, with all touring he's put in), but someone, with some hearing left, should tell him to go back to what he was using in the days he recorded these fantastic songs. His guitar is lost in the mix and what you do hear is a bit harsh and grainy. Where it used to be warm with just the right amount of grit. Too bad because his guitar is so important to the music. Otherwise he's still got the vocals, the camera work is good and picture quality is fine. I would rather see the interview stuff in a seperate extras section. I'll be looking for another older DVD of Thorogood. Sorry I started with this one. It's lackluster.

GREAT GUITAR ROCK PERIOD!!! REMEMBER THIS GUY IS "BAD TO THE BONE"!!! THIS IS ONE GREAT GUITAR AND BAND ROCK CONCERT AND IS WELL WORTHY OF THE 5 STAR RATING!!! THIS GUY IS A PRO, THIS IS HIS 30TH ANIV.TOUR CONCERT, THAT'S A LOT OF EXPERIENCE!!!

THE PACKAGE CONSISTS OF A CD/DVD COMBO. THIS REVIEW IS OF THE DVD ONLY!

THIS WAS FILMED IN ENGLAND IN 2004, BEFORE A PACKED ENTHUSIASTIC CROWD!
THE BAND IS GREAT, THE AUDIENCE IS GREAT, AND GEORGE HAS A GREAT REPPORE WITH THE AUDIENCE, MAKING THIS ONE GREAT, GUITAR AND BAND CONCERT.

GEORGE ROCKS WITH AN ATTITUDE LIKE HE ALWAYS DOES. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT, THE GUY IS "BAD TO THE BONE"!!!

PLUS, THERE IS BONUS MATERIAL OF "RIDE TILL I DIE" AND "MERRY CHRISTMAS BABY".

GEORGE THOROGOOD HAS BEEN IN SOME OF HANK WILLIAMS JR'S MUSIC VIDEOS, GEORGE HAS ALWAYS PLAYED SOME HANK WILLIAMS SONGS!!! A LOT OF PEOPLE CONSIDER HIM TO BE SOUTHER ROCK!!!

THIS IS EXCELLENT GUITAR AND BAND ROCK AT ITS BEST, SO IF YOU LIKE THIS KINDA STUFF, YOU SHOULD LOVE THIS ONE, AND THEREFORE, I DO HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!!

Most all of his great hits are mhere but a few more could mhave been included. Have seen him in concert 3 times and he really rocks the house down and for longer than this mCd goes. Why did they edit it is the only question???

Who ever is a fan of George Thorogood. Should own
this video.

i love george thorogood, so i certainly can't bash a concert i haven't even been able to see. the dvd i ordered from newbury_comics arrived in PAL format rather than NTSC rendering it unplayable on my dvd player(s). question the format before purchasing.
