Rock Until You Drop: A Long Days Journey



Playback issues...
I don't know what to think.

I'm on my 2nd DVD now, and having the same exact issues. The menu is all off! When you try to navigate through the menu options some option are highlighted and at other times you have no idea were your cursor is. You think you are playing the movie but once it gets to chapter two, it stops and brings you right back to the main menu. I've also attempted starting from other chapters and get the same results.

I've tried playing it on my desktop & laptops, I've tried on multiple DVD players in my home and having the same issues with the menu navigation and playback.

Very frustrating mainly because I'm a huge RAVEN fan, so getting my hands on not one but two copies and not being able to watch it from beginning to end it killing me.

I would assume there is an issue with the production of the DVD's or at least that is my feeling.

SAS Metal
The Gallagher brothers could have been SAS warriors.Instead they chose to play music.Awesome choice .I personally think the 1st 3 from Raven are Epic.Unfortunately due to clueless label owners and a bad decision by the boys,their style changed after All For One. This dvd if properly manufactured would be a 5 star product.Unfortunately as the first reviewer stated ,,there are playback issues.You basically have to manually hit on your remote each chapter.I could not watch dvd in one press of play button.Shame because there is some great footage here.Not of the best picture quality by 21st century standard but much of stuff was recorded with 1980s tech. The company that released this must do the mighty Raven a service and correct the playability issues,which is why me gives only 3 stars.A fan should not have to pay $$$ and get a product that you basically have to play each chapter individually to watch dvd.Defect only occurs on disc One.Disc two is issue free. Wish Rob Hunter would...

Finally!
A poorly documented band with little history on video is finally in my hands! It actually reached me on my birthday! The quality is a little on the "meh" side, the menus seem like they are thrown together, sometimes the video skips too and the audio mix is not the best but Raven is one of the most monumental and influential metal bands in history. I was only 5 or 6 when they toured with Metallica on the Kill em All for one tour and tore up the stages of Roseland and Lamour in NY so until I get that time machine this video will have to do! A must have as a historical document for all the nu-metal kids to show them where the big boys hang!
