In regards to the DVD, Scorpions guitarist Rudolph Schenker told BW&BK;: "The people who recorded and filmed the entire show didn't do a great job. The mixer was a little bit confused in his mobile studio with five guitarists playing. He had to remix the entire show. We've been on the road and it's been difficult to finish the DVD. When everybody signs the agreement - my brother, Uli Jon Roth and Herman Rarebell - then when the time is right we will release it before Christmas."
