Fans of Y&T have been waiting a long time for a Live DVD release and they were not disappointed. From the first song to the very last, Y&T pour it on. I was greatly surprised that the show lasted for approximately two hours. Although they were some songs I wished they had played such as Midnight in Tokyo and Hang 'Em high it was still a good show. On a side note, you do get a performance of Midnight in Tokyo on the bonus disc during a sound check. So all in all everything is nicely packaged and worth the price. The Live CD is a nice touch. Now if they can dig up some vintage footage from back in the day, that would be awesome.

One HOT Night is a great title for this show because after the first song the guys are just dripping in sweat, the show is Amazing full of great music and lots of energy. Y&T gives it 110% and they play songs from their entire career, both video and sound quality are Excellent, a must have.

I've been a fan of Y&T since the release of Black Tiger, but never had the oppotunity to see them live. Their live shows have always been legendary and I always heard that they could wipe the stage with most bands, that's probably why some of the bigger bands in the 80's wouldn't bring them along as an opening act. Well, to put it simply, Y&T delivers on all accounts. This package has everything a fan could want; 2 DVDs and a CD of highlights from the show.

The concert DVD is over 2 hrs. of pure rock-n-roll heaven. There are VERY few bands that can play for more than 2 hrs. and leave fans saying - "I wish the had played (insert your favorite song here). Y&T IS one of these bands. The bonus DVD has backstage, soundcheck, fan interaction and footage from the Bang Your Head Festival. Then there's the CD that has 80 mins. from the show. Basically you get a ton of stuff in one great package.

This is a fantastic collection for any Y&T fan. The fans have always been loyal to the band and this shows that the band is just as loyal to their fans. In the liner notes Dave Meniketti mentions more DVDs to come - let's hope so. Y&T ROCKS!

Dave's voice sounds as great as ever and they play tight renditions of their numerous hits in a surprisingly small venue. Great videography captures them up close. Nice bonus performances too of them playing outdoors at a German heavy metal festival.

First off, when the day comes that Dave Meniketti misses a step - somebody let me know. That day has not come yet!

I find it hard to believe that this was recorded recently. This sounds like the Y&T of yesterday. 100% as hard, tight, clean, etc. Every bit up to the extremely high standards that we all have grown to expect from Meniketti. An excellent collection of Y&T favorites, too. Loved the intro by John Nymann on "Summertime Girls."

This DVD set isn't just for Y&T fans (we have been waiting a long time for something like this.) Any hard-rocking fan of 80's rock is in for a major treat. Take note that I say "80's rock" and not "pop." This is hard-hitting stuff. Legitimate rock from a rock legend. If you've missed out all of these years and never listened to Y&T - here's your chance!

I also want to thank whoever filmed/edited the video. I'm so freaking sick of modern concert videos! This is an exception. Good looks at a great band without all the distracting garbage that so many other video producers have defiled their product with (Take that, Steve Harris!)

Thank you, Y&T, for withstanding the heat and giving us something to keep forever. Now... what's next!

Been waiting a Long Long time for Y&t to come out with a DVD and wow did they Deliver. the sound is excellent! the Band is literally on Fire! nice long show. a must have for any music fan! thanks Y&t. JohnV. La Selva Beach ca.

I have been waiting for a Y&T DVD for quite awhile now. I'm very happy to say it was well worth the wait. This DVD is rocking from start to finish, the sound quality and camera work is top notch and the set list is solid. A must for any Y&T fan.

Has all the energy you need and can reasonably expect from the guys at this age. Pure rock to enjoy, with a truly sincere effort. A good deal with 2 DVD's and a CD. And excellent video and audio quality. A 5+.

The bonus disk is a nice touch too, especially the 'after concert' scenes in the dressing room. Helps you appreciate how much effort went in. Would love to see them in concert now.

I have been a Y&T fan since the early 80's. I have seen the band perform live upwards of 50 times (at least, perhaps more, I have honestly lost count). They have always given a good show, whether at a small club or a stadium in their 80's heyday, but I really think that things have improved with age. This performance on DVD I would rate in the top ten shows I have seen. Sure, I wasn't there with the fans, sharing that live energy, and that will detract slightly from the experience of watching the show but the band in their curent lineup has really "jelled" for the more recent shows. I saw them in Petaluma, CA on Dec 1, 2007 and that has to have been their best performance to date. This DVD rates up near the top. Highly recommended. Dave, Phil, John, and Mike... Keep on rockin'. Your fans love you.

These guys are still rockin'. It feels good to know that Rock isn't dead. Watching the DVD makes you feel like you are really there. Great song selection and performancees. The CD is in my car. i can't quit playing it. I couldn't wait to get it and now I cannot put it down. This is a must have for all hard rock fans. For this one,get your friends together,have a party,and enjoy.
