Honestly, I'm really happy that despite the hiatus the band is still very active, albeit in non-traditional avenues, hence the DVD launch and the custom guitar. Paul has put his axe-wielding days behind him in favor of being behind the camera, but we'll definitely get a copy of the DVD one of these days.
