I have all of the others but I don't know, incomplete recordings might suggest a barrel scrap.
I'm not thrilled about the incomplete songs, but since it's apparently the only soundboard w/Mark St. John, I can get past it. It's far less egregious to me than the way they edited some of the videos in Kissology (especially the Detroit show in Vol. 1).
Besides, an incomplete version of "Rock And Roll All Nite"? Kind of a blessing in disguise at this point.

The spoken bit at the end reminds me of the two shows I saw on this tour. Both times Paul said "just last night..." and told the same story. I felt like he lied to us

Like David Lee Roth! We saw a VH show when somebody threw a firecracker at him and he threatened to beat the guy's ass, then just said he was going to screw the guy's girlfriend. A couple weeks later, my buddy's friend who lived in Florida called him and said he'd just seen VH. He said, "Dude, you're not going to believe this - somebody threw a firecracker onstage and..." My buddy interrupted him and said, "Let me guess - DLR said he was going to screw his girlfriend." The other guy said, "How do you know that?" He said, "He just did it here a couple weeks ago." Fast-forward a couple years, DLR is on his first solo tour, and my now-wife and I went, and you're not going to believe this, but somebody threw another firecracker at him. And I did the whole stage rap to my girlfriend right along with him. And I realized they kicked him out of VH to keep the other three guys safe.

Thanks for the laugh. Now my co-workers are certain I've lost my mind.

Paul Stanley might be accused of singing to backing tracks nowadays....but that stage banter at the end was 100%...well, not improvised but poorly rehearsed. I kind of wish there had been a backing track.
Mark St. Johns's guitar playing was incredible, though.

His stage raps reminded me of SNL skits a lot of times - started with a lot of energy and enthusiasm, occasionally had a memorable bit or three, and most times just petered out at the end.
But they're famous enough to have their own bootlegs.
