Yay! We have all been holding our breath and watching for news about Whomp at the Warfield for so long. I hope so much that this comes to pass. The timing is great for Christmas shoppers (and is just in time for my birthday).

So many goodies to look forward to, let’s add this shall we – The Cover Art:
That is a damn fine picture.
From a previous post re: Whomp at the Warfield:
This DVD was recorded during Taylor’s concert at The Warfield Theater in San Francisco, May 9, 2007:

Naked in the Jungle
- Dance to the Music
- I Wanna Take You HigherThis concert has aired on the TV channel HDNet a handful of times and word is Medicated Goo was left off the menu. No explanations were given, but it is possible they were unable to clear the rights to air the tune.
No explanations on why such a long wait between filming and release either, but if I had to guess I would say that it boils down to distribution rights (Van Morrison is known to be especially protective of and vigilant about his work). It’s pure conjecture on my part, though.
I can’t give firsthand details on this concert as I wasn’t there nor do I receive HDNet, however I did see some vids by a Boogie poster named caligal. Naked in the Jungle is worth the price of admission all by itself.
Thank you, luvtaylorhicks - you made my day. 
OMG! What news this morning. That really came out of the blue. But great news it is, and so many have been waiting for the release, afraid it would never happen……..and jealous of those who have HDNet. Thank you luvtaylorhicks!
WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is such great news on so many levels…..so happy for him and us! The cover pic is BREATHTAKING…..
SWEET!! Cover art is WOW! I have it recorded, but I want the disc!! It will be worth the wait to actually own this performance.
Wait until you see BADGE! And the boots! And the dancing! And Heart and Soul (with BEHM tag).
The ENTIRE DVD will take you back to the days of the “Hot and Humid tour” and you’ll L-O-V-E it!
This is FABULOUS news! I was so hoping this would finally happen! I’m thrilled for Taylor and for all of his fans! I cannot wait!
I wonder if the DVD is a Whomp Records release? He is listed as the producer, wasn’t he?
That would be so cool.
I have been waiting so long. I am going to buy the DVD and CD as soon as it is available. I can’t wait!!! It is going to be awesome!!!!!
I am so looking froward to this.
See me happy dancing!!!!!
squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel! thanks for the info!!! i’m soooo happy! I’m dancing in my seat!!!
Wow, love the picture of Taylor. He’s still number one for me. Love this guy and his music!
