Yep, good stuff. I recently deleted all of my videos from Youtube. The comment wars were just unbearable. My only regret is that I don't have any of those old ones backed up at all. I know they're out there somewhere, because I downloaded them from someone, but those were some great old shows.
I like to sit out on the front porch, where the birds can see me, eating a plate of scrambled eggs, just so they know what I'm capable of.

RE: the opening post, well said.
There's a lot to dislike about this band with respect to its internal politics and boneheaded decisions, but they're still my favorite band and the live shows, with their predictable set lists that drive me nuts, still have me cheesing from ear to ear. Even on Youtube, watching Neal Schon crank out the solo to Ask the Lonely gives me chills.

Any concert that draws in hot women is an outstanding concert in my book.

The concert last year left me with only joy. My 2 favourite '80s bands, Foreigner and Journey, left me singing along front to back. Though Foreginer was all around the better act that night... they still aren't Journey, they don't have the same vibe, and they don't have DSB! The song was my lifesaver. I was in utter amazement every second with Neal delivering it. It was also a treat to hear my dad enjoying not only the show, but enjoying me! He said, "I had Arnel singing in my right ear and my son in my left".

What I loved the most though, was after the show. The smell of freshly smoked reefer and cops doing nothing! And the girls around my age singing DSB. Everywhere, nobody was singing the Night Ranger tunes or the Foreigner tunes... Just the DSB bug spread among the horde. It was the best night of my life.
