    How cool!!!! =) I listen to the radio when i go to sleep at night (talk show) and Billy Gibbons is a good friend of the host of the show I listen to. He is on from time to time and gives some great perspectives on the band and their travels. Hes a totally down to earth guy, and the dude loves his cars.... this would be really cool to see, GREAT write-up Ape, thanks for including the details and specs (The Cap'n luv's DTS!!!!)

    Unfortunately, no Cook. He hasn't had time to get the beard going yet...

    and if he did grow a beard it would probably grow all whacky like his hairdo... now that would be a beard!!

    What's ironic is that Frank Beard (drummer) doesn't have a beard. I don't know why, but that always cracks me up.

    Shout out to my husband, Shawn! Awesome review! I enjoyed watching this DVD with you and totally agree with your assessment. Rock on!

    Btw - I'm LOL at the disbelief that your real name is Shawn. First the identity suspicions happened to me on my blog, now it's happening to you. Is the blogosphere really that paranoid and distrusting? Or is the world just full of liars? Oh well... either way, it's pretty funny. :-P
