It's also up on Amazon.ca, so I'm assuming Amazon.com as well, for pre-order. Price is very reasonable at about $35, so even if you have all of the other DVDs it's still a great deal. I wonder when the Las Vegas X-mas show was recorded? Also wonder if it's edited like the other Xmas concert was or if it's unedited. Anyway, I'm going to pre-order as it really is a great deal.

Cost is now $41.99 on Amazon.com:

http://www.amazon.com/Bars-Stars-Three-Decades-Live/dp/B005OZ4GQU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1318730156&sr=8-1

The price is even better in Canada on Amazon.ca:

http://www.amazon.ca/Bars-Stars-DVD-Box-Set/dp/B005OZ4GQU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1318730276&sr=8-1

Strange that the price is better in Canadian (usually works in the reverse even when the Cdn dollar is worth more than a US dollar), but I'll take it!

No. The DVD from a few years ago was filmed on the east coast....and I remember seeing film crews in Baltimore and NYC. The Vegas shows were filmed later....I've seen almost every single Twisted Christmas, and I can tell you that the Vegas shows were not only some of the best sound (c'mon, it was Barry Manilow's old theatre) but the stage set looked great, there were some hilarious Santa bits. Even if you have the previous Christmas CD, I guarantee you'll enjoy the Vegas Twisted Christmas show. That run of three nights were some of my favorite Twisted shows ever!

TWISTED SISTER FROM THE BARS TO THE STARS:
THREE DECADES LIVE OUT TODAY

Twisted Sister
Twisted Sister will celebrate Christmas early this year with the release of Twisted Sister From The Bars To The Stars: Three Decades Live, a 5-DVD boxed set, on November 8. The lavish package comes complete with curios such as a Twisted Sister Christmas ornament, an official "New York Steel" backstage pass, a classic two and a half-inch Twisted Sister pin and a reproduction of the first-ever SMF Fan Club letter.

Over eight hours long, From The Bars To The Stars has to be considered the ultimate Twisted Sister boxed set. One of the five DVDs, Twisted Xmas: Live In Las Vegas, is a total exclusive, having never before been released in any format. This 2009 concert showcases the band performing such beloved holiday fare as "White Christmas" and "Come All Ye Faithful" next to "Burn In Hell" and "Deck The Halls" as only Twisted Sister can. In fact, Jay Jay French, Dee Snider, Mark Mendoza, A.J. Perro, and Eddie Ojeda, have made this holiday merriment a metal tradition for the past few years.

Live At Reading was filmed in 1982 at England’s biggest rock festival. A bonus 2011 band interview is included.

Double Live juxtaposes an early Long Island, New York show (North Stage '82), filmed just prior to the band breaking internationally, and NY Steel '01, the New York City 9/11 benefit they headlined.

Live At Wacken documents the band's 2003 Wacken Open Air Festival reunion appearance in Germany. Complete with behind-the-scenes backstage footage and band interviews about their 1980s rise to world domination, break-up and reunion, it also contains their entire set on the big stage at this most prestigious of European Heavy Metal festivals.

Any SMF would agree – This is one boxed set no Twisted Sister fan can do without.

Thanks George--
I just watched everything...start to finish...and the BOXED SET ROCKS!!!!

I absolutely loved it! The sound and video on the Vegas Christmas are fantastic--great editing, nice shots, excellent sound-- it was perfect!

Filmed on the 3rd night (which is a little tiny bummer because the third night has the shortest set list....but the funniest Santa bit) you can actually see some slamboard folks-- there a few good shots of SMF Dave Funtazia....SMF Denise from the UK in her pink TS santa hat...SMF Canadian Cindee (Cindy) and I on the side next to Denise... it was very special to relive Vegas again. Best Christmas shows ever! I really enjoyed the close up shots of the guitar solos--gives you an even greater appreciation for MAMs bass solo of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.

North Stage '82 just blew my socks off--I was too young to get into the bars, and this profoundly gives you a taste of Old School TS. And I don't know if I was hallucinating...but there was a woman in the front row that looked suspiciously like our own DCT! (Don't know if this is fact--I'll have to ask her if I see her at LI)

Truly--this boxed set is a must-have for every SMF out there. I love love love it!
