Interesting to read that it appears the box set has the incorrect date for the After Hours show. So After Hours would actually be the first Ozzy live performance ever. Although it wasn't open to the public and as such doesn't really count for that.

Wasn't After Hours a community cable access show in northern New York?

Yes, it was in Rochester.

Interesting, if I see this at a good price used I may have to pick it up. Looks like a pretty nice set

Nice? if you have money to burn and like cd's that have been tweaked to where the original feel is lost.
I heard some of the "new" version of the albums, and the reviews are right. Too brittle, compared to the 1995 cd's or original vinyl.
This is only slightly better than when Sharon had new bass & drum tracks on the last re-issues.

The dvd is cool, but not worth the coin for buying this set, so scam it instead somehow.
It will probably be awhile before they think of selling it separately.
