![]() Is that I work at Camp Pendleton & went to this show. What an event. I had recently seen that the dvd was released & will be purchasing it very soon. Now, i'm not in the military ( did spend 11 years as a Navy Corpman ) & am lucky enough to work on the base & had been invited to the show. What these artists did was truly amazing, & what the base did was equally unbelievable. You figure that the stage would be small, no pyro, not a big production. WOW WAS I WRONG. Full pyro, stage sets, the whole 9. Ted, Godsmack, Richie ( who was awesome, can't get enough of acoustic Bon Jovi hits ), & of course KISS were amazing. Destiny's Child ( not really a big fan, but they put on an awesome show, let me tell ya ). Even the other bands i'm not to fond of put on one helluva show ( Hootie, Ja Rule ). Now, like I said, I didn't get the video yet, but after going to this show in person, I KNOW IT'S AWESOME... Enjoy... ![]() I just got my Copy of Rockin the Corps... Featuring our Boys KISS!!!! This was a concert/event to pay tribute to the U.S. Marines returning from Iraq, Over 50,000 Marines, sailors and family members attended at Del Mar Beach, Camp Pendleton. I was going to wait on this one till I saw what others thought... But in the absence of The "Rock The Nation" DVD ... I needed this "fix"... Well, I wanted to sit back and enjoy the whole show but I couldn't... So I Zipped to Ted Nugent...Kicking it off with the Star Spangled Banner... Than Godsmack.... Boy do these guys get the Party started right! Godsmack, in the KISS vein, Make sure their fans see a Rock show! This makes me want to see them all the more. Ted is in his glory as Godsmack backs him up.... you can see the joy on the faces of the guys in Godsmack as they look like kids in a candy store getting to Jam with Ted! A dream of any self respecting Rocker! After that I had to Zoom to Kiss!!!... (I had too...) Though the Guys did 5 songs that night... Sadly only 3 are featured here. Detroit Rock City One of the first things that is obvious is Paul is Not Dancing and Jumping up to his normal form (This being due to this happening shortly after his surgery...). Does that Stop Kiss from Being entertaining... HELL NO! The Guys kick it and everybody does their thing. In what one might think of as an unusual sight, The crowd is littered with folks in Kiss War Paint... Gene is unusually animated!!! reminding me of his younger days. Up next is .. Love Gun ... which Paul kicks off Accapella and boom the boys are back to Rockin' Of course the Last song is ...Surprise Rock and Roll All Nite! Wow! The Amount of Pyro they use is amazing! Paul Smashes a Guitar.. All Hell Breaks Loose... All is right with the World! The crowd is really into this show!... The Bands are giving it up for folks that they respect. it shows in every performance. Even the Bands and entertainers that I wasn't necessarily into show their Heart. I could have lived with Richie Sambora doing maybe 1 less song...or Hootie in the Blowfish doing one less... and Hey!...the could have put the other 2 Kiss songs on there... Destiny's Child is Easy on the Eyes of The Ken Man... So, I was entertained.... would I recommend it? it is very entertaining.. YES... should you buy it... I will say this, A portion of all proceeds has been pledged to benefit our troops and their families through Support The Corps, Inc., a tax-exempt, nonprofit/charitable organization. so it's a Double Good thing... you get to see our Boys.. and Help our Boys in the Armed Forces... Ken ![]() Overall, a great DVD and concert. Here is the track listing: Star Spangled Banner - Nugent Awake - Godsmack Whatever - Godsmack I Stand Alone - Godsmack Cat Scratch Fever - Nugent w/ Godsmack Stranglehold - Nugent w/Godsmack Livin' On A Prayer - Richie Sambora It's My Life - Richie Sambora Wanted Dead Or Alive - Richie Sambora Only Wanna Be With You - Hootie & The Blowfish Time - Hootie & The Blowfish Hold My Hand - Hootie & The Blowfish Soldier - Destiny's Child Survivor - Destiny's Child Crazy In Love - Destiny's Child Detroit Rock City - KISS Love Gun - KISS Rock and Roll All Nite - KISS ![]() I recently viewed the premiere on INHD2 (Hi-Def channel) and it was incredible. With a high-energy series of live musical performances including Godsmack, Kiss, Ritchie Sambora (belting out 3 Bon Jovi tunes) and Ted Nugent just to name a few. I would recommend this to any rock music enthusiast for these performances alone... It's a shame there isn't a CD available!! The program is very well produced with short performance introductions, split screen intermissions featuring Marine activities, comments and backstage antics of the performers, Very to-the-point and complete. I would highly recommend this DVD and am personally looking forward to its release. |
