I'm starting to understand their marketing strategy, a flawed one to be sure!
By releasing a live album and a remastered 6-pack they're hoping to appeal to a younger fan base. Parents taking their kids to see one of their favorite bands has worked out great for the Stones, etc. So in that sense.........here's us live and if you liked that go back and listen to our back catalog, here it is remastered!
I'm sure they're looking at what Page has done and the success Zep has had with reissues.
The huge difference is..........Page put tons of extras in his remasters and anyone in this day and age puts out a DVD, not just an audio only album.
So in a classic VH way, they got it half right. Sure remaster stuff to bring the highest quality audio to market, release a live album to show the band's still got it but.........typical VH fashion take the absolute laziest half ass route!
