DVD Reviews of Sammy Hagar and The Wabos: Livin' It Up! Live in St. Louis

DVD Review: Sound problem
Summary: 3 Stars

I have a nice surround system set up that is in a dedicated room and I have enough speakers connected for 7.1 With this dvd I get no sound from my subwoofer no matter if I have it on DTS, or dolby 5.1 Does anyone else have that problem or do I have a bad disc.

DVD Review: Rocks!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this dvd based on all the 5-star reviews. Last time I saw Sammy was on the Sam and Dave Tour. This is way better than that tour. This dvd delivers in all ways, great rock and roll, sammy jammin on guitar, very hot girls, love all the new songs from the "Livin it Up" cd (which I have), and Michael Anothony on Bass for the Van Hager songs. Lot of fun, great extras. Sammy always gives it his all, at his shows. He is at his best when he is solo. Hope to see Sammy live again. It is a party, you don't want to miss. 5-stars.

DVD Review: Like fine wine....
Summary: 5 Stars

Every DVD release Sammy does gets better and better. He just continues to get better with age...and I like him a heck of a lot better outside of Van Halen. As others have said, this is almost like being there. Crank it up and party with the Red Rocker.

Now, how about a reissue of the amazing MTV 1983 concert on DVD!!!

DVD Review: Great Gig
Summary: 4 Stars

This concert is great. It has some of Sammy's new songs and old songs, and also has some Van Halen songs with special guest Michael Anthony.

The DVD is great, it has some cool extras too.


DVD Review: the next best thing to attending a Sammy Hagar concert
Summary: 5 Stars

The Good
If you've ever been to a Sammy Hagar show in recent times, then you know that every show is a party. Hagar's stop in St. Louis is no exception. The stage is set-up to mimic Sammy's Cabo Wabo Cantina Bar. There are people in bleachers on stage, sand, palm trees, and every other object that could ever remind you of the beach. Let's not forget about hot women. There are plenty that bring out Waboritas for the "red rocker" in between songs. Sammy even echoes the words of his lovely wife after a few have come out; `you can look, but don't touch!' The 5.1 sound is phenomenal, and makes you feel you were right in the middle of the action.

Ever the party animal, Hagar get the show started with a celebration, complete with confetti and the like. I guess it's the only way to start off with the party hit "Mas Tequila." To keep the vibe going, Sammy and his Wabos segue into one of their newer tracks "Mexico." Which I must say comes off better live than it did on the studio album. Hagar bust out a few of his classic solo material as well as a few Montrose hits, before kicking out his latest theme song "Sam I Am." After Sammy brings the house down with his well-known hits "I Can't Drive 55," and "Heavy Metal," it's time for an old friend to hit the stage.

Hagar's old-band mate Michael Anthony takes over bass duties and he and the "red rocker" barrel through a few Van Halen hits. They play "Summer Nights" for the first time since the 5150 Tour and even eliminate the keyboards for a rocking version of "Right Now." To keep the party vibe going, even as the doors are closing, Hagar ends on a high note with "Cabo Wabo." When all is said and done, you're pissed that the party is over. The DVD bonus material is minimal, but they're still a treat for fans.

The Bad
The Beastie Boys' cover "Fight for Your Right" sounds just horrible. I can understand it's a song about partying, but it sucks...bad!

The Verdict
The Livin' It Up! Live in St. Louis DVD is the next best thing to attending a Sammy Hagar concert, strike that; a Sammy Hagar party. It's non-stop energy from the opening note to the final chord. When the party's over, you'll be that guy that doesn't want to leave that they have to call the cops for.

Description of Sammy Hagar and The Wabos: Livin' It Up! Live in St. Louis

Sammy Hagar And The Wabos - Livin' It Up Live! - Caught live in St Louis on their sold out 2006 US tour, Sammy And The Wabos bring down the house with songs from their new album, Livin' It Up, as well as some of Sammy's famed solo work. Joined on stage for the second half of the show by legendary Van Halen bassist, Michael Anthony, the band rips through some of rock radio's classic tunes. From "I Can't Drive 55" and "Mas Tequila" to "Finish What You Started" and "Right Now", it's one big Cabo party with the "Red Rocker"! December 6, 1978-it might have started before then but I'll never forget Sammy opening for Ted Nugent at the Checkerdome in St. Louis. Opening acts aren't supposed to have the audience in the palm of their hand but Sammy sure did. His honesty and sincerity captivated the audience. The relationship between this artist and this city would never be the same. Almost 30 years later Sammy is still honest, still sincere and now more than ever, holds the St. Louis audience in the palm of his hand with a shot of Cabo in the other. Sammy fans everywhere just want to know, "What is it with Sammy and St. Louis?" It could be the relationship between Sammy and KSHE radio which dates back to the early 70's and the Montrose days. It could be all of the great solo albums. It could be the days with Van Halen. I think it's a combination of all of the above magnified by the sweat and energy of 33 plus shows that over 500,000 diehard fans have witnessed in this city. Whatever this "thing" is between Sammy and St. Louis it's real, it's heartfelt and spiritual to a degree. Once you watch the DVD you might understand. Favazz--KSHE/St. Louis Songs: Miss Tequila, Mexico, There's Only One Way to Rock, Rainy Day Women (#12/#35), The Girl Gets Around, Rock Candy, I'll Fall in, Love Again, I'll Take You There, Sam I Am, Little White Lie, I Can't Drive 55, Heavy Metal, Good Enough, Summer Nights, Right Now, Finish What You Started, Best of Both Worlds, Fight for Your Right, Cabo Wabo
