There are almost always heads and arms in the picture - but the picture quality is exceptional for a film this old and you get some great closeups. Lita looks hotter than a pancake fresh off the skillet too.

There is a brief cut in the middle of the last song "Only One Way To Rock."

Rather than simply demux and reauthor this, I did an analog capture and ran the video through my GTH Electronics Advanced Convertor Enhancer to correct the skin tones and reduce the saturation. So now instead of reddish-pink, the faces and arms have a natural looking skin tone, and there is no longer any "bleeding ghost edges" around the any of the images. I also color corrected the background to make it pure black (there was a hint of "noise" in it). Finally, I tweaked the audio by EQing it - lowering the low end and increasing the high end. The vocals are a little muddy sounding at times, but they sound much better now. Keep in mind - this was filmed from only about 15-20 feet in front of the stage - so the PA audio blew right on by the filmer. From this vantage point, the guitar and bass monitors (which faced the audience) tended to drown out the vocal monitors (that faced up from the stage toward the performers).

This is the only full Lita Ford boot vid that I know of in existance - and now - thanks to The N.Y.B.G. - you get to see it in pristine quality. She was opening up for Poison on this tour.
