This looks and sounds absolutely amazing in this format. Why did l think Def Lep went 5 + years after the Pyromania tour until the Hysteria tour? To make a triumphant return with a drummer who lost his arm, to return in the round and absolutely on fire!

Respectfully, that is a super shitty AI version of that. I couldn't watch more than 15 seconds of it, it looks so bad and fake.

Motorhead In The Round was the best

That tour with 17000’per night

Motorhead tour got booked to play the club next to The Spaghetti Factory ..but show got cancelled

I wonder what the biggest paid admission, non festival headlining concert that Motorhead ever did in terms of attendance & cash generated.
No way they ever sold over 5k tickets to any one show, right?

Yeah, there are MUCH better ways to 'upscale' things like this. The best way requires immense PC power. I have a decent editing rig and to upscale something properly to 4k, reduce noise, maybe add back some film grain, can take hours to render a 5 minute clip. Doing a whole show like this it would take forever to do it correctly so you go the simple route. Now they look like robots made out of wax.

Yep. Still fairly new to me and I still haven't come up w/ a good method of upscaling/cleaning up old Hi-8 type stuff that looks good, but what it does with 4k stuff is pretty great. ie live concert footage. Subtle to the avg viewer but a killer 'final step'.

They sold out the Velodrome in Berlin in 2012. ~12,000 tickets. No idea on $$$. If it's not their biggest it's probably close:

(Anthrax was the main opener on that tour, FWIW)
