==Bostaph's departure==
Bostaph gave the band prior knowledge of him wishing to leave before recording the DVD.<ref name=" PAUL BOSTAPH of Exodus, ex-Slayer"/> Bostaph has a copy but is yet to watch it, as it was his last release with the band and his third last live show; "You gotta understand that the taping of that; the ''Warfield'' show was two shows before my last show with the band. I haven’t watched it because you kinda go back with your scene…for the fans, they see a show; for me, I see my second to last show with the band, you know what I mean? I have it but I needed to get some distance away from the situation and move on with my life. It’s like breaking up with a [[girlfriend]]."<ref name=" PAUL BOSTAPH of Exodus, ex-Slayer">{{cite web
