The production quality of this DVD was very disappointing. The packaging has a very low budget look and feel, with amateurish artwork and DVD menus, and no booklet to be found. OK, no big deal. But the lack of a decent 5.1 surround audio track is a big deal. The only audio option included was a rather weak sounding Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo track, of which I had to crank my amplifier up about 25 percent higher than normal to really rock out.

The video suffered from a lack of detail and many out of focus shots. The director didn't help matters either, with all of the injections of black & white and slow motion footage, in order to put his artistic stamp on the project. The camera crew did a decent job in providing plenty of great close-ups of the guitarist's fingers flying across their fretboards, as well as some nice overhead shots of Morgenstein pounding the skins, but I could have used much less crowd shots - especially all of the past-their-prime groupies in the front row. Yes, Winger still has groupies.

The bonus material consists of a photo gallery and an 8-minute sound check feature that consists mostly of the band standing around going "check, one, two...check". I would have been more interested in watching an interview with the band to get their take on the whole hair-metal scene, their fall from grace, being mocked by Beavis and Butt-head, and their plans for the future.

So I can finally cross Winger off of my concert DVD "missing in action" list. You never really know what to expect from a band whose glory days are 15 years behind them, but Winger still sounds better than ever. Take that Beavis and Butt-head.
