Title: Not MS's best
Review: I was kind of disappointed in this DVD. I am a long time MSG fan. But this band seems to be the mediocre MSG. Barden's voice is shot - he has no range at all. Neil Murray is a journeyman bass player at best. He's not a fraction as good as Barry Sparks. Simon Wright does ok on the drums, but I'll take Shane Galas. The cat is out of the bag on this band on Into the Arena. The middle solo that Sparks and Galas used to give & take on is noticeably missing. And lacking. And Barden cannot range the lyrics as before. Plus the song selection basically sucks. Seems to be middle of the road MSG to accomodate Barden's now limited capability. Plus the mixing is off. Can barely make out Findley's rhythm guitar under Schenker's axe.
