Great Set, Except That Four Classic Songs were Omitted!
This was a great set and feast for Scorpions fans, featuring all their guitarists joining them throughout the night, but after seeing the track list compared to the original webcast, a big star deduction because four songs have been removed: "Dark Lady," an absolute classic from the Roth era which was in the set between "Speedy's Coming" and "We'll Burn the Sky," and three tracks performed during the encores: "He's a Woman, She's a Man" (with both Roth and Michael Schenker), "In Search of the Piece of Mind" (with Roth, M. Schenker and Michael's son Tyson Schenker, and the only track from the Lonesome Crow days) and "Dynamite," a killer live number which was the 2nd encore before they came out a final time for "Rock You Like a Hurricane." The video does list "Bolero" in the place where "In Search of the Piece of Mind" was in the set. Maybe it was an intro to the song.If anyone has any official reason for the removal of these, please share! I doubt it was due to lack of space, but if it was, a few of the lesser-known tracks like "Love 'em or Leave 'em" or "Don't Believe Her"--not to mention the drum solo--could have been dropped in favor of these omitted Scorps classics.
