No amount of make up and face paint can hide the aging process, especially not in the face of a hardcore rock and roller. But it is also true to say that no amount of cliché can hide a good song and WASP have both in spades.

...hide a good song and WASP have both in spades.
Filmed for a world wide webcast in LA, Blackie and the boys show a welcome return to form with a set that offers no apologies for being the WASP that they were back in the 80's. From the second the set starts, and a flaming torch sets fire to the WASP backdrop, the years melt away, the hair follicles itch and a good 20 years fall off the aching body.
All the classics are there, along with ... ...the planet. I want the WASP of my teenage years, the emphatic exclamation point at the end of the F*$k You, and this is exactly what they deliver.
Filmed as a live webcast, the DVD doesn't offer as much in the way of extras as you could hope for, including a photo gallery and web links, but the show is the star so this shouldn't put anyone off investing. ... more
No amount of make up and face paint can hide the aging process, especially not in the face of a hardcore rock and roller. But it is also true to say that no amount of cliché can hide a good song and WASP have both in spades. Filmed for a world wide webcast in LA, Blackie and the boys show a welcome return to form with a set that offers no apologies for being the WASP that they were back in the 80's. From the second the set starts, and a flaming torch sets fire to the WASP backdrop, the years melt away, the hair follicles itch and a good 20 years fall off the aching body. All the classics are there, along with the stand out tracks from the last few albums, and thankfully all pretense of being anything other than what they are is gone. Blackie is leather clad with thigh high boots and shoulder pads stolen from the Joan Collins wardrobe and Chris Holmes still looks like he's one step away from absolute alcoholic collapse. Times have changed, it is true, but I don't want to see a 2007 pale imitation of what was once the greatest rock band on the planet. I want the WASP of my teenage years, the emphatic exclamation point at the end of the F*$k You, and this is exactly what they deliver. Filmed as a live webcast, the DVD doesn't offer as much in the way of extras as you could hope for, including a photo gallery and web links, but the show is the star so this shouldn't put anyone off investing.
