Notes
Audience (1st gen video). Video quality VG+. Audio quality VG / VG+.

Taken from a 1st gen video source of a BetaMax Master->SVHS->Digital8 lineage.

This is a phenomenal audience film from the 1984, especially so considering how little footage
there is of that tour. The camera work is much better than on the 1982 film from the
same location. The equiment is better and the zoom is much tighter than on that
recording. The shot is very steady for the majority of the show and follows the band members
around very well. It's amazing to see the full panoramic shots of the stage and how elaborate
that set was.
While the video is fantastic, the audio recording isn't the greatest, but it is the best it is going to get.
The audio is mainly lacking in high end due to the camcorder equipment of that time.
There is also some wicked bass distortion that crops up during "Everybody Wants Some". The show is
presented complete with the only edits being during long breaks between songs towards the end
of the show. You can hear the band and the crowd is relatively low in the mix with no distracting
participants near the filmer.

Overall this mono recording just lacks the fidelity to rate it any higher. The show itself is a great performance in front of a very, very enthusiastic crowd.

Special features include approximately 114 minutes worth of bonus material. There are three different interviews presented in slide show fashion.
On the first DVD there is the "In the Studio" 15th Anniversary special on the making of the 1984
album featuring Alex, Eddie and Michael. On the second dvd there are a pair of radio interviews.
The first is a Rockline special from February 20, 1984 with David, Alex and Michael that's
complete with an in studio stripper! The second radio interview is from the BBC Rock Hour series
from February 5, 1984 featuring David Lee Roth in fine form. The audio companion to the DVD
video release and can also be found on the dvd disc two in lossless SHN format. The artwork for
the DVD and the CD versions are included on disc. All the artwork and menu's feature previously
unreleased photos from the 1984 tour taken by the CBG. Lastly, the md5 checksums for the
audio and video files are included on disc to facilitate accurate copying and trading.

Production specifics:

The video was transfered from digital 8 tape via a Sony TRV-340 over firewire
into a computer using Adobe Premier Pro. Video was then encoded with TMPGEnc at 8000kbps
CBR with all settings to highest quality. Audio was digitally remastered in Adobe Audition
and encoded as Dolby Digital 2.0 at 448kbps. The dvd was then authored using
Sonic Scenarist.

Released in August 2004.
