So, funny story- at the time that these guys were officially the loudest band in the world, my dad fell asleep in the third seated row at their concert right at the start, and slept the entire way through. It was actually very sweet- he’d worked three days straight with little to no sleep in order to be able to buy these tickets from a scalper, because this was Mum’s favourite band. So he worked bloody hard and got the tickets for her… and then promptly slept through almost the entire concert. Very sweet though, mum thought it was very romantic, and he must’ve done something right, because they’re still happily together all these years later. I think mum was pregnant with me (though early days) when they went to the concert. I’m 34. So yeah, he did something right.

You should check out the original studio version of this song, followed by "Switch 625", the two songs were intended to be listened to back to back and the raw emotion that is captured, between the two songs, is absolutely incredible and I have never heard another band even come close between back to back songs.

In The Round In Your Face (this concert) was released on DVD as a bonus disc to the Hysteria Expanded Deluxe set back in 2017. This is a great show and worthy of finding if you want to own it.

I grew up in this era. 52 now. “in the Round, In Your Face” was the concert video they put out on VHS , and I’m going to guess Beta as well. A lot of bands did this during that era. I bought this one. They were the biggest band in the world at the time “Hysteria” came out, which was just before this tour. This was after Rick Allen lost his arm in a car accident and they changed their sound to a more produced style and less raw. Nonetheless still an amazing band. Just as you guessed, In the Round because the stage was in the middle of the arena floor and I do believe it was spinning as well. You need to listen to the recorded version of you haven’t. Amazing . I’m in Cleveland as well, going to have to check out one of your shows sometime. A request, do “Piece of Me” By Skid Row off the “Slave to the Grind “ album. A live performance with Sebastian Bach, either the Saturday Night Live performance or from Wembley Stadium 1991. Just FANTASTIC

This was the second version of this band as they have changed hands in the guitar position. Back to the drummer, he also probably has the fastest feet on the pedals in rock history, no matter what genre. Do more watching, less dancing around in your chairs with your eyes squinted.
